See 7.10 if degradation exceeds 40 %.7.1.7 Monitor the suction at the turbine nozzle daily duringthe test, in addition to the weekly measurement on the plenumchamber,

31、to maintain loading and to ensure that no mechanicalproblems exist.7.2 Use a new section of carpet and padding, in accordancewith 5.11 and 5.12, without holes, tears, or other signs of wear,when the test is started. Secure the carpet tautly. The lay of thecarpet pile shall be such that, during the f
