HANDLING OF TURBINE DURING EMERGENCY

• 1) Partial load throw off (due to high frequency).• 2) Partial load throw off due to Aux. Failure.• 3) Sudden increase of load from full load• 4) Vibration high• 5) Differential Expansion high/low• 6) Axial shift high• 7) Loss of vacuum• 8) High level in condenser• 9) Loss of Barring gear or barring gear fails to start

Page 3: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

1) Partial load throw off (due to high frequency).

• Probable Reasons and Action to be taken:-

• The steam pressure at ESV will increase:• FSSS operator will control the boiler

pressure.• Governor will control the load.• If it fails, then throttle the control valves

suitably

Page 4: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Maintain steam pressure to normal till the frequency comes down.• As the turbine load will decrease :

There should be a constant watch on the supervisory instruments.• Disturbance in differential

expansion, vibration, axial shift, eccentricity

Page 5: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Disturbance in condenser level : Adjust and maintain the hot well level• Disturbance in vacuum• Check and adjust ejector steam

pressure and gland steam pressure to normal

• Turbine lub oil temp will change.

Page 6: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Adjust coolers water flow as necessary.

• Disturbance in Deaerator pressure.

• Deaerator pressure tends to fall,

• Maintain it through extraction on 16 ata. Header.

Page 7: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• 2) Partial load throw off due to Aux. Failure.

• Probable Reasons and Action to be taken:-

• There is a provision for initial load throw off by help of a relay without time delay which reduces turbine load to 100 MW in case of tripping of following equipment’s .

Page 8: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• One C.W. pump tripped in case both are running : If the partial load relay fails or not in circuit• Reduce the turbine load.• Inform the boiler operator to

control steam parameter in case one C.W. pump or one Condensate pump trip.

Page 9: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Careful watch may be kept on vacuum.• Inform the local operator to check

the cause of tripping.• Maintain the deaerator and hotwell

level.

Page 10: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• One BFP in case two are running and standby does not come on auto remote /not available.

• One condensate pump in case two are running and standby dose not come on auto/remote not available:

Page 11: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Tripping of any one of I.D. fan.• Tripping of any one of F.D. fan.• Tripping of any one of P.A. fan.

• In case of full load throw off (due to opening generator breaker)

Page 12: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• • The turbine may trip due to over speeding : Close the control gear hand wheel

• If control valve can not control the speed :• Immediately trip the Turbine by emergency

trip button:

• Check that ESV and control valves are closed.• Close the valves in the M.S. line. Close the

Extr. Steam valves.

Page 13: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• 3) Sudden increase of load from full load

Probable Reasons and Action to be taken:-• Low frequency : Since the turbine is on

governor control ,the load will increase due to fall in speed.

• Reduce the load by the control gear and bring the boiler parameter and load to normal.

Page 14: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Due to sudden rise of boiler drum pressure.: • Bring back the load by governing

wheel and maintain the pressure to normal by control gear and inform the boiler operator.

Page 15: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• 4) Vibration high

• Probable Reasons and Action to be taken:-• • Normally the vibration in bearings

should be within 40 microns. If it exceeds the limit, turbine should be shut down:

Page 16: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Check the turbine cylinder drain should not be cold (if necessary open the drain valve for few minutes if turbine is on load).• : Check bearing oil press ,flow and

temp. to be normal .• Check for any rubbing sound etc.

Page 17: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• :• • Turbine bearing oil press low : Reduce the load

/speed. Check the oil line pressure and maintain it.

• • Bearing oil inlet temp. High :Check the cooling water valves are open in oil coolers and vent the coolers. Put the standby cooler in service, ensure C.W.P. is running normal. Check bearing oil outlet temp. (less then 65° c ).

Page 18: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• 5) Differential Expansion high/low• Probable Reasons and Action to be

taken:-• • Normally the rotor gets long during running

and gets short during shut down. • The expansion is to be controlled by

admitting steam or shutting off supply to flange and stud heating, chamber heating accordingly.

Page 19: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• In case if it goes beyond control, the machine to be tripped.

• Check the steam temp. Reduce load / speed.

• Check the valve for flange heating is in open condition if rotor is long or close if rotor is short. Check and adjust gland steam temp.

• • Check the vacuum to be normal

Page 20: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• 6) Axial shift high• Probable Reasons and Action to be

taken:-• • In case of excessive shift the

turbine will trip through the protection• • Sudden change in load : Control

the load and maintain the steam parameter.

Page 21: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• • Abrupt change of steam parameter: Control the load and maintain the steam parameter

• • Sudden closure of FCNRV of heater (HP/LP) :

• Control the load and maintain the governing pressure,

• If heaters are healthy, open FCNRV.

Page 22: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• • Variation in lub. Oil temp .pressure and quality :• Maintain lub. Oil pressure and

temp. for quality• Get the oil tested from laboratory

and if necessary oil is to be changed.

Page 23: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• 7) Loss of vacuum

• • If there be any loss of vacuum , start the standby ejector at the earliest. Still if it does not improve start starting ejector. • With no further improvement of

vacuum, then

Page 24: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Reduce the load as required to maintain the vacuum at 700 MM. • Meanwhile try to detect the specific

reason which may be as follows :• Steam ejector not properly

functioning : • Check that steam pressure in 6

kg/cm².

protection• 16) Overspeed Protection . 16 %.

Page 64: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Axial Shift Protection :

This protection acts in the event of “High Axial Shift” of rotor caused by the unacceptable wear of the axial bearing pads which results in inadmissible displacement of the rotor with respect to the thrust bearings. This condition is very dangerous which results in rubbing of rotating parts against stationary parts of theturbine. The trip points correspond to 1.2 mm thrust--bearing wear from either side. Thetrip signal is initiated from axial shift measuring unit.

Page 65: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Very Low Vacuum in CondenserThis protection acts in the event of vacuum fall in the condenser to low set point no. 2 (540 mm Hgc). There is a pretrip alarm at vacuum fall to set point no. 1 (650 mm Hgc). Both trip and pretrip signals are initiated from a metallic below type vacuum switch. Very low vacuum in the condenser (does not allow full steam from turbine to enter the condenser when turbine trips). Also this cause temp rise in the steam

Page 66: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

at the end of expansion stages and this may cause misalignment and damage at the exhaust end of the turbine and also possibly buckling of condenser tubes.Loss of vacuum is usually caused due to failure in the supply of condenser cooling water or malfunctioning of condenser air ejector system. Main reasons are inefficient cooling tower, air ingress through glands, scaling on condenser tubes from inside and outside.

Page 67: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Lub Oil Pressure Very Low• This protection acts in case the lub oil pressure • fall to (0.3 Kg/cm2). There is a pretrip alarm at • pressure fall to low set (0.6 Kg/cm2). Both trip and• pretrip signals initiated from two metallic bellow • type pressure switches connected in parallel. • Low pressure of the lub. oil results in damaging• the rotating parts in the turbine as well as outside• the turbine like pedestal bearing at• slip ring end of the generator. Lubrication with • sufficient pressure and purity of oil is the• initial requirement of the turbo generator set. • The DC motor driven emergency pump is• used as a final back up to supply oil.

Page 68: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Main steam temp. Low Protection• This protection acts in case the main steam• temp. in any of the emergency stop valves

decreases to low set point (4500 C) from• (5200 C) suddenly. The sudden drop of temp. causes

mismatch between turbine casing and rotor temp. resulting in high eccentricity and diff. expansion.

• The high diff. expansion of the turbine rotor relative to the turbine cylinder can damage the

• turbine seals due to rubbing.

Page 69: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

HPT Exhaust Temp. High protection

• This protection acts in case the exhaust • steam temp. reaches to 4500 C. Sensing • of the temp. is taken through the temp. • indicator in case of failure of NRV in • CRH line the HP turbine temp. may • shoot up beyond permissible working • limit because of reverse steam flow.

Page 70: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Hp Heaters Level Very Very High Protection

• For initiating alarm and protection actions in the event of • abnormal levels in any of the hp heaters• This protection acts in case the level goes to high set point • which isolates HP heaters and further goes to isolate the • HP heaters from service, in addition to tripping • of the turbine.

• Heater tube leakage causes HP heater level high, results in admission of water into turbine through bleed side from where the steam tapping are taken to HP heaters. High set point - 750 mm of water col.,

• Very high set point - 4250 of water column.

Page 71: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Boiler Drum Level Very High Protection• This protection acts in case the level of water in • boiler drum reaches high. In absence of this• protection, water may enter into the turbine • with steam, while it in rolling condition.

• The provision of boiler drum level indication is • made in control room itself to maintain the • level.

Page 72: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Turbine Tripping on Boiler Tripping

• This protection acts in case the boiler • trips out. 30 sec. delayed tripping is • achieved through timer. It is well • understood that tripping of the boiler • means stopping steam production and • steam supply to the turbine.

Page 73: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Reverse Power Protection• A steam turbine requires protection against • overheating when its steam supply is cut off and • generator runs as motor. Such overheating occurs

• because insufficient steam is passing through the • turbine to carry away the heat that is produced by

• windage loss. When a generator operating in

• parallel with other machines looses its driving force, it remains in synchronism with the system and continues to run as a synchronous motor drawing sufficient power to drive the prime mover.

Page 74: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Damper Tank Level Low Protection

• This protection acts (with 10 sec.-delayed action) in case the oil level in damper tank decreases below low set point.

• The oil from this tank serves for sealing, low level of which is not permitted. Sealing with low pressure of oil results in leakage of hydrogen from seals

Page 75: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Stator Water Conductivity High Protection

• This protection acts in case the• conductivity of stator water • required for its cooling goes high.• In this case the stator• windings may be earthed through • water due to low resistance.

Page 76: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Stator Water Flow Low Protection :• This protection acts in case the flow • of stator water used for cooling of • the stator goes low. The insufficient • flow of water does not serve the • purpose of cooling water of stator• winding (13 m3/h r.) insulation • gets damaged.

Page 77: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Emergency Tripping from Local

• This protection acts in case the push button of local for tripping is pressed by hand.

• This is the emergency mechanical protection provided at local only. In abnormal condition ,irrespective of electrical protections ,turbine may be

• tripped without delay.

Page 78: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Emergency Tripping from Remote

• This facility is provided on control desk itself.

• By pressing this push button in • emergency the “Turbine Trip • Solenoid”gets energized and• turbine trips with ESV & IV closing.

Page 79: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Electro Hydraulic Transducers

• Electro hydraulic transducer is intended for • anticipatory closing of control valves in case the• total loss of external load and thus reduces the• transit overspeed peak. GCB may get open due to• its own fault, results in overspeeding of the • turbine.• This interlock is automatically introduced• when ESV & IV are open and GCB is closed

Page 80: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

Overspeed Protection• This totally mechanical protection provided at 10 • % & 16%. Overspeed of the turbine with • corresponding striker is ON. The inadmissible • overspeed can result in rapture of the rotor as a • result of stress due to centrifugal force.

• Trip initiation takes place at set value of overspeed • with the assistance of mechanical overspeed • governors. • This is a built in feature in governing system.

Page 81: 210 Mw Lmw Turbine Emergencies

• Turbine protection means isolation of steam • supply to the turbine. On each and every• elect. protection command goes to energies • turbine trip solenoid,which after energisation• gives command to close ESV,IV and control valves.

Also the “Turbine Lock Out Relay” (TLR)• which picks upon tripping gives command to • close main steam stop valves, short time• opening and again closing of turbine • evacuation valves and closing of a temp. valves etc.
