Question 689Steam Plants - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is D) indicate the temperature and flow of lube oil leaving a turbine bearing. This is correct because the illustration SE-0010 depicts a component that is typically used to monitor the temperature and flow of the lubricating oil as it exits a turbine bearing. Monitoring these parameters is important for ensuring proper lubrication and preventing damage to the bearing. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the normal function of the component shown in the illustration. Option A refers to monitoring the oil leaving the bearing, while option B refers to monitoring the oil entering the bearing. Option C describes a filtration function, which is not the primary purpose of the component depicted.
