But, They Can Be Sleeping Giants That Can Result In Major Headaches If Ignored. Three Real Steam Turbine Undesirable Consequences That Immediately Come To Mind Are:Injury And Secondary Damage Due To An Overspeed Failure. An overspeed Failure on A Big Steam Or Gas Turbine Is One Of The Most Frightening Of Industrial Accidents.The High Cost Of An Extensive Overhaul Due To An Undetected Component Failure.
