The matter of warming up the turbines previous to starting isof vital importance, and should receive special attention from theengineers in charge. 1. Start running of the circulators and air pumps, and admitheating steam at about lo lbs. pressure right through the turbinesto the condensers, after first getting rid of the heated air from theboilers, etc. 2. Uniform heating of all parts should be aimed at, and duringthis process (for which about six hours should be allowed) the rotorshould
