I challenge you to find a pirated copy of IEC 61362 "Guide to specification of hydraulic turbine governing systems" online. It does not exist. The company I used to work for, which specialized in turbine governing systems costing millions of dollars, would not pay the $300 for that document.
- lstamour 5y agoAs pointed out in another comment and previously on HN, my new favourite source for specs are regional English translations from Estonia. Here’s one for IEC 61362 for 22 EUR: https://www.evs.ee/en/evs-en-61362-2012 https://www.evs.ee/en/evs-en-61362-2012
- exmadscientist 5y ago> It does not exist Sure does! First line from a random page (44) of 61362:2012: "...the runner blade opening is brought to a certain position to provide a given flow rate after load..."
- helloworld11 5y agoThey wouldn't pay $300 for it because the price is too high or because they don't need it? If their specialty makes them need the document, why would they not pay $300? I'm curious.
