A 2MW turbine is running in parallel with 2 4MW Engine. at that condition, if the steam Volume is get reduced what will happen in Turbine? whether governor will give raise to actuator or it will sense the steam volume and reduce the Load

If not what will happen to the Extra load in the system?
 
Senthil,

We have no idea of the three gen-sets are paralleled with each other supplying an electrical load that is isolated from a large grid with many other gen-sets all paralleled together supplying a large load, OR if they three gen-sets are isolated from a large load and other gen-sets are supplying a small, isolated ("island") load?

Have you tried this before and had success or problems?

What speed control modes will each of the gen-sets be operating in when paralleled?

What is the nature of the load; is it fairly stable, does it change by more than 20-25% at any one time?

Are the governors electronic or electrohydraulic, similar or very dissimilar?

There are lot of things we don't know, so we won't likely be able to be of much help.

Best of luck with your problem?
