What Does NPOS Stand For?

NPOS stands for Power Turbine Overspeed

NPOS, or Power Turbine Overspeed, refers to a critical safety and performance condition in power generation systems, particularly in turbines. It occurs when the rotational speed of the turbine exceeds its designated operational limits, potentially leading to mechanical failure, decreased efficiency, and safety hazards. Monitoring and managing NPOS is essential for ensuring the reliability and longevity of turbine operations in various energy production facilities.
