ABSTRACT:
In an admission valve structure for a turbine all of the valves except the first opening one are spring biased closed, when seated. Because of the sequential opening of the valves, the valve closing bias of each spring acts as an opening bias relative to all earlier opening valves until that valve is opened. The combined spring forces act to open at least some of the valves thus permitting the governor to attain minimum speed once the throttle valve is opened in the steam header.
