Plant area: TURBINE Testing Schedule : TURBINE ON BARRING GEAR SLNO 1.0 1.1 PLANT DETAILS: Turbine and Generator Train is supported on 6 No of bearings, thurst bearing at HP rear. Oil pumps for lubrication consisting of 2 Nos Aux. Oil pumps, one No. of DC EOP and one number Main oil pump with connected pipe lines. Jacking oil pumps two AC driven one DC driven with connected pipe lines. Oil tank to hold the required quantity of oil. Auxiliary oil pumps, Jacking oil pumps and oil vapour exhaust fans 2 nos are mounted on the top of oil tank. Level gauge and probes are installed to indicate and give alarm whenever the level variation is there from low to high. One number duplex filter is there in the oil line to thrust bearing to prevent the solid partides more than 37 mic. entering into the thrust bearing. One number bucket filter is installed inside the oil tank. Throttles are there to regulate the oil flow into the bearings and one throttle at discharge of pumps to adjust the oil pressure of lub oil header.

Plant area: TURBINE Testing Schedule : TURBINE ON BARRING GEAR SLNO 2.0 OBJECTIVE: To rotate the turbine rotor system continuously on low speed during start up and shutdown of the machine. This is to over come the break away torque during startup and enable uniform cooling of the rotor system during shutdown to prevent distortion of rotor.

Plant area: TURBINE Testing Schedule : TURBINE ON BARRING GEAR SLNO 8.0 8.1 METHOD: Set the throttle for the oil system to maintain the lub oil header pressure to the required valve. Set the throttles in the lub oil lines to individual bearings to maintain the required flow to the bearings. Ensure the oil flow through view glass in the return line. SGC of oil system is commissioned. SLC of pumps is commissioned and the auto change over of oil pumps is established. Check the functioning of oil temperature controller Adjust the pressure control valve in the Jop discharge line to maintain the required header pressure. Check the SLC operation of Jack oil pumps. Stop the Jack oil pump and mount dial gauges on the shaft nearer to the bearings. This is to measure the lift of the shaft with Job. Start one Jop and notedown the lift of the shaft at each bearing. If the lift is zero at any one of bearings adjust the isolating valve in the Jop lines to bearings to alter the lift oil pressure and initiate the lift. The lift should be at least 0.02 mm min, & 0.1 mm mas. Mum. Do hand barring and it should rotate freely. If it is found difficult, check the lift again at all the bearings and improve the same if it is zero at any of bearings.

Put the machine on baring gear first by opening the gate valve gearing and then starting the Jop. The speed of the shaft system shall increase and attain the specified speed. Check for any rubbing of seals and sound in the bearings by means of hearing rod. If no sound is heared, allow it to run for some time. Stop the bearing gear by closing the gate valve gearing and note down the coasting down time. Again open the gate valve gearing and run the barring gear for 8 hrs to check its performance. Notedown the following readings every hour. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Lub oil header pressure Lub oil temperature Thrust position. Bearing and shaft vibration Speed Bearing babbit temperature. Jop header pressure and the same at individual bearing. Return oil temperature.
