Steam Turbine Definition

A steam turbine is a device that extracts thermal energy
from pressurized steam and uses it to do mechanical work on a rotating output shaft.

Impulse & reaction turbine

To
maximize turbine efficiency the steam is expanded, doing work, in a number of stages. These stages are characterized by how the energy is extracted from them and are known as either impulse or reaction turbines. Most steam turbines use a mixture of the reaction and impulse designs: each stage behaves as either one or the other, but the overall turbine uses both. Typically, higher pressure sections are impulse type and lower pressure stages are reaction type.
11
Impulse turbines
An impulse turbine has fixed nozzles that orient the steam flow into high speed jets. These jets contain significant kinetic energy, which is convert into shaft rotation by the bucket like shaped rotor blades, as the steam jet changes direction.
12
Impulse turbines
In the reaction turbine, the rotor blades themselves are arranged to form convergent nozzle's. This type of turbine makes use of the reaction force produced as the steam accelerates through the nozzles formed by the rotor. Steam is directed onto the rotor by the fixed vanes of the Stator. It leaves the stator as a jet that fills the entire circumference of the Rotor

Principle of operation and design

An
ideal steam turbine is considered to be an isentropic process, or constant entropy process, in which the entropy of the steam entering the turbine is equal to the entropy of the steam leaving the turbine. steam turbine is truly isentropic, however, with typical isentropic efficiencies ranging from 2090% based on the application of the turbine.
The interior of a turbine comprises several sets of blades, One set of stationary blades is connected to the casing and one set of rotating blades is connected to the shaft. The sets intermesh with certain minimum clearances, with the size and configuration of sets varying to efficiently exploit the expansion of steam at each stage.

Operation & Maintenance

Steam
Turbine warm up
1) the main steam stop valves (after the boiler) have a bypass line to allow superheated steam to slowly bypass the valve and proceed to heat up the lines in the system along with the steam turbine. 2) Also, a turning gear is engaged when there is no steam to the turbine to slowly rotate the turbine to ensure even heating to prevent uneven expansion.
3) After first rotating the turbine by the turning gear, allowing time for the rotor to assume a straight plane (no bowing), then the turning gear is disengaged and steam is admitted to the turbine, first to the astern blades then to the ahead blades slowly rotating the turbine at 1015 RPM (0.170.25 Hz) to slowly warm the turbine.
17

Speed
regulation
The control of a turbine with a governor is essential, as turbines need to be run up slowly, to prevent damage while some applications (such as the generation of alternating current electricity) require precise speed control. Uncontrolled acceleration of the turbine rotor can lead to an overspeed trip, which causes the nozzle valves that control the flow of steam to the turbine to close. If this fails then the turbine may continue accelerating until it breaks apart, often spectacularly. Turbines are expensive to make, requiring precision manufacture and special quality materials.

HTC turbine - Rotor

The rotor is a single forging together with the control stage disc and thrust collar, on which the emergency governor, the moving blades, the sealing strips, the ratchet wheel for turning gear and the coupling are mounted. 3 kinds of blades, control
stage, the pressure stage (or called as drum stage) and the low-pressure stage. The front two are the milled
straight blades with integral shroud, while the moving blade of the low-pressure stage is twisted blade made with finish forging or machined electrochemically.
The low-pressure stages of the condensing turbine work in the wet-steam region, so the steam flowing out of the guide blade contains the water droplets. The axial
distance between the guide and moving blades in the low-pressure stage is kept large to facilitate
the acceleration, separation and atomization of any water droplets. This will reduce the impact and corrosion of the droplets on the leading edges of the blades. Taken the effects of the speed, humidity and condenser pressure into account, the leading edges of the last moving blades are hardened if necessary.

dynamic
balancing and over speed testing of the
rotor
1. The rotor dynamic balancing is done on the high speed dynamic balancing machine at the turbine operating speed to correct the dynamic unbalance quantity within the limit defined in the relative standard through changing the mass distribution of the balancing weights or screws on the balancing planes. The dynamic unbalance quantity on the rotor is caused by non-uniform mass distribution of the rotor material, machining error and assembling deviation. The rotor over speed test is one of the factory inspection items, it should be done on special device under defined operating condition and environment,
