1.5 Regulation and protecting system

Turbine regulation and protecting system can be divided into: mechanical emergencygovernor, HP & LP interface device (diaphragm valve), HP fire resistant fuel oil system andsafety supervision protection system.

1.5.1 ResetTwo reset methods: manual and remote control

1.5.1.1 Remote control: the lights indicated DEH reset and RSV actuator open shall be lighted by

pushing the reset button in control room. If unit fails to be reset, it shall be checkedwhether 0.7MPa protection oil pressure has been established in diaphragm valve upperchamber and whether 20/ASR solenoid valve has been energized by using iron wire orsaw blade. If there is no excitation, the solenoid valve has not been energized by DEH.

1.5.1.2  Local control: the reset handle shall be wheeled counterclockwise by hand and thenloosened slowly which make handle back to normal position. If 0.7MPa protection oilpressure has been established in diaphragm valve upper chamber, unit successfullyresets.

1.5.2 Breaking

Three redundant breaking methods of electric, mechanical & manual are installed in speedgoverning protecting system.

1.5.2.1 Electric stop

The function is completed by HP breaking module. Once electric stop signal is received,HP breaking module lose power until HP protecting oil is discharged, all the main steamand regulation valves are closed, which stops steam feeding to the turbine.

1.5.2.2 Mechanical over-speed protection

Mechanical over speed and manual trip deviceMechanical over speed and manual trip device consists of emergency governor, pilot valveof emergency governor and safety operation device.Emergency governor, pilot valve of emergency governorEmergency governor shall be equipped with one set of centrifugal stop bolt, which controlspilot valve of emergency governor. When steam turbine operation speed reaches to110%-112% of rated speed, centrifugal force of centrifugal stop bolt overcomes therestriction force of spring and throws the centrifugal stop bolt outward striking pilot valvetrigger which make pilot valve move towards right and then protection oil is connected withdrain to open diaphragm valve rapidly.Pilot valve of emergency governor that is installed inside front bearing housing is thecontrol and test device in emergency trip system, and it includes one trip pilot valve, onetest isolation pilot valve, one manual trip lever and one test lever.Test isolation pilot valve could be used to isolate pilot valve of emergency governor fromLP protection oil header. During oil injection test, test stop valve could be opened bymanual to allow pressure oil coming into the chamber beneath centrifugal stop boltthrough nozzle, and centrifugal stop bolt overcomes the restriction force of spring flyingoff.

1.5.2.3 Manual stop A manual shutoff valve id installed for emergency stop in front of turbine head. Press theshutoff button manually to discharge the lube oil above diaphragm valve, open diaphragm

valve to discharge HP protecting oil and close all main steam valves, regulation valvesquickly to stop feeding steam.

1.5.3 EH (electro-hydraulic ) system As per the function, EH control system could be constituted of three parts, which are EHfluid supply system, actuators and emergency trip part.

1.5.3.1 EH fluid supply systemEH fluid supply system can be divided into EH fluid supply device, self-circulation coolingsystem, fluid regeneration system as well as EH fluid piping & accessory.The main function of EH fluid supply system shall be to supply necessary hydraulic powerto actuators, and maintain the normal physical chemistry characteristics of hydraulic fluid.

1.5.3.2 Actuators Actuator part shall be constituted of two MSV (main stop valve) actuators, two RSVactuators, four GV (governor valve) actuators and four ICV (reheat interceptor valve)actuators.

1 RSV actuator

Two RSV actuators equipped with valve activity testing solenoid valve shall beinstalled on RSV at unit side. RSV actuator shall be of “ON-OFF Control” type.RSV actuator will receive the control signal from DEH system, and a plug-in typedump valve is installed on the actuator. Should emergency condition occur duringsteam turbine operation, auto stop emergency trip (AST) fluid is discharged so thatdump valve will open immediately to discharge the pressure fluid at working chamberof actuator cylinder and RSV will close quickly by spring force.There is an activity testing solenoid valve (2 position, 2 way) on actuator, which isconnected with cylinder working chamber and return fluid. When valve activity test isperformed, DEH control device will send out a signal to make the solenoid valve openfor discharging part of pressure fluid in cylinder working chamber, then RSV is closedby spring force to perform valve activity test.

2 MSV actuator

MSV actuator is “Proportional Control” type actuator, which can control MSV at anyposition and control steam admission to meet steam turbine operation requirement

according to control requirement.DEH control signal drives servo valve to move main valve core and control servovalve pass to make HP fire resistant fluid go into actuator working chamber to moveactuator piston, and finally to open MSV or to discharge pressure fluid from workingchamber to close MSV through piston converse movement by spring force. Whenactuator piston moves, it will drive two linear displacement transducers (LVDT) totransform actuator piston displacement into electrical signal (as feedback signal) plusthe aforesaid signal after computer treatment; however, it’s actually minus each otherbecause of the opposite polarity. Only in the condition of original input signal plusfeedback signal to make input servoamplifier signal zero and main pilot valve of servovalve be back to center position without high-pressure fluid coming into workingchamber, MSV will stop moving and remain at a new working position.

 A plug-in type dump valve is installed on MSV actuator. Should emergency stopcondition occur during steam turbine operation, emergency trip system will act todischarge AST header fluid so that dump valve will open immediately to discharge thepressure fluid at working chamber of actuator cylinder and MSV will all close quicklyby spring force.

3 GV, ICV actuator

GV ,ICV actuators are “Proportional Control” type actuators, which can controlGV,ICV at any position and control steam admission to meet steam turbine operationrequirement according to control requirement.The control principle of servo valve shall be the same as that of MSV actuator.The GV actuator is equipped with one plug-in type dump valve.

spring force.The control principle of ICV actuator shall be the same as that of GV actuator.

1.5.3.3 Emergency tr ip protection sys temFor avoiding serious damage accident of unit caused by failure of some equipment duringsteam turbine operation, emergency trip protection system shall be prepared for the unit.

1 Emergency trip testing device

Emergency trip testing device shall be constituted of one EH oil pressure test block, onebearing oil pressure test block, two condenser vacuum test block and two BOP & EOPstart test block, which could be on-line tested and maintained.

OPC/AST solenoid valve unit

OPC/AST solenoid valve unit consists of two OPC solenoid valves (20/OPC-1、2), two

check valves, four AST solenoid valves (20/AST-1、2、3、4) and one control block. Two

OPC solenoid valves are in the parallel arrangement, and four AST solenoid valves arein the series-parallel arrangement. When turbine speed exceeds 103% of rated speed,OPC acting signal will be sent out. OPC solenoid valves open when they are energizedso that OPC header fluid drains to EH fluid reservoir through no pressure return (DV)fluid line. In that case, discharge valve of the corresponding control valve actuator willopen fast so that each HP control valve will be closed immediately.

When emergency happens to unit, AST signal will be sent out. Four AST solenoidvalves will open for losing power so that AST header fluid drains to EH fluid reservoirthrough DV fluid line. In that case, dump valves of main steam valve actuator andcontrol valve actuator will open fast to close each steam valve immediately.

3 Diaphragm valve

Diaphragm valve provides an interface between the HP fire-resistant hydraulic fluid andLP turbine oil, thus the LP over speed tripping can be accomplished by the diaphragmvalve to shutdown the steam turbine.

Mechanical over speed and manual trip device

Mechanical over speed and manual trip device consists of emergency governor, pilotvalve of emergency governor and safety operation device.Emergency governor shall be equipped with one set of centrifugal stop bolt, which

controls pilot valve of emergency governor. When steam turbine operation speedreaches to 110%-112% of rated speed, centrifugal force of centrifugal stop boltovercomes the restriction force of spring and throws the centrifugal stop bolt outwardstriking pilot valve trigger which make pilot valve move towards right and then protectionoil is connected with drain to open diaphragm valve rapidly.Pilot valve of emergency governor that is installed inside front bearing housing is thecontrol and test device in emergency trip system, and it includes one trip pilot valve, onetest isolation pilot valve, one manual trip lever and one test lever.Safety operation device provides remote reset solenoid valve and reset air cylinder forunit. When it receives DEH reset signal and air cylinder moves upwards pushingconnecting rod of emergency governor pilot valve, pilot valve of emergency governorresets.

1.5.4 Turbine supervisory inst rument system

TSI is an reliable multi-way supervision system for supervising generator-turbine unit rotorand mechanical working parameters continuously.

1.5.4.1 Casing expansion measurementWhen the unit turns into temperature rise and on-load conditions from cold condition,changes of temperature will certainly cause casing expansion. Casing expansionmeasurement is performed to measure casing’s axial expansion value in the directionfrom the dead point to front bearing box, and the front bearing box can move freely alongthe longitudinal key for filling lubricants. When casing expansion occurs, if the movementof unit’s free end on the guide key is blocked, the unit will be severely damaged. Actually, casing expansion measurement is performed to measure the movement value of

bearing box relative to the dead point (foundation) and record casing’s expansion &contraction values under start-up, shut-down and load & temperature change conditionsof the unit. If the indicated values are abnormal under these transient conditions, then

29

operation personnels shall analyse them. Under similar load, steam parameters andvacuum conditions, the relative positions of front bearing box indicated by this instrumentshall be identical basically.

1.5.4.2 Axial displacement measurementThis device indicates and records the axial displacement of rotor thrust disc relative to theaxial position of bearing seat, to monitor the abrasion conditions along the thrust direction

and of thrust bearing pad. For the existence of steam, thrust disc applies axial pressure tothe thrust pads on its two sides, which will cause bearing pad abrasion, and the axialdisplacement due to this bearing pad abrasion will be displayed on TSI measurementdevice. Each measurement block is equipped with alarm and trip switching value outputs,which will alarm automatically once the rotor’s axial displacement exceeds the first presetposition. If the rotor’s axial displacement value exceeds the second preset position, thentripping relay will operate to trip out the turbine.

1.5.4.3 Differential expansion measurementWhen steam enters into turbine, the rotating & static parts will expand along with steam.For the rotor can be heated, it will also expand faster. Although the axial clearancesbetween rotating and static parts allow certain differential expansion inside the turbine, itwill cause abrasion and even crash of rotating and static parts if the differential expansion

exceeds allowable limits.Differential expansion measurement is performed to show the relative displacement ofrotating and static parts, and continuously indicate the axial clearances of turbine duringoperation. The measurement blocks are equipped with alarm and trip outputs, and therelay will operate when axial clearances reach the limits due to differential expansion. Aftera transient process, temperatures of rotating and static parts will gradually tend to be thesame, and differential expansion reduces accordingly. Then, it is permitted to change thesteam flow and temperature for another time.

1.5.4.4 Rotor eccentricity measurement

This device is used to indicate and record the rotor eccentricity with a rotating speed lessthan 600rpm. When turbine’s rotating speed is more than 600rpm, this device can beswitched off automatically by rotating speed signal controls.If it is possible to measure at

bearing oil retainer with portable rotor eccentricity meter, the double amplitudeeccentricity value measured before turbine rotation impulsing should not exceed0.025mm.. The rotor eccentricity measurement is equipped with alarm signal outputs,which will alarm when eccentricity value reaches the limits.

1.5.4.5 Vibration measurement

Vibration measurement instrument is used to measure and record vibration of rotors with

rotating speed higher than 600r /min. A couple of eddy current sensors vertical to each

other and a bearing pad vibration probe fixed vertically are installed at each bearing seatof this turbo-generator unit, and signals from sensors are connected to turbinesupervisory instruments, which will measure the rotor’s vibration value directly. Excessivevibration indicates that accidents of turbine may occur or that turbine is operatingabnormally. Each vibration measurement is equipped with alarm and trip switching value

outputs, and relay will operate accordingly when excessive vibration value is measured onany bearing.TSI can supply the vibration signals to vibration analysis and failure diagnosis systemTDM via buffer outputs for performing analysis, diagnosis, dynamic balance, etc. of unitvibration.

1.5.4.6 Key phase measurement

Key phase signals show the angular relation between the protruding position of certainbearing and one reference point on the rotor. TDM system can accurately calculate thephase of rotor vibration via key phase signals.

1.5.4.7 Speed & zero speed measurement

Speed indicator is provided with the function of monitoring the shaft rotating speed

continuously. There is rotating speed sensor arranged in front bearing box, and speedindicator receives signals from eddy current probe, after that, it calculates the speed inRPM. When the speed drops to zero, it will send an interlock signal to automatic barring

solenoid valve lose power and open to discharge HP protecting oil, the HP & IP automaticmain steam valve and speed regulation valve close to stop the unit.

1.6.1.2 Mechanical overspeed protection

 A mechanical shutoff protecting system consists of emergency governor, emergencybreaking oil valve, constant close & constant open solenoid valve, orifice plate anddiaphragm valves installed at turbine head inside of front bearing box of turbine unit.Emergency breaker runs with the same speed of main bearing. When turbine running

speed reaches to rated running speed (110~112%), the flying hammer of emergency

governor flies out under effect of centrifugal force of the flying hammer of emergencybreaker, which strikes on emergency breaking oil valve damper and makes the pothookdrop; meanwhile, under the force of bottom spring, sliding valve of emergency breakingoil valve upspring quickly, which opens LP protecting oil discharging orifice and closesmain steam valve and steam regulation valve quickly to stop the unit.

1.6.2 ETS (Turb ine emergency trip sys tem)

ETS receives alarm or stop signals from TSI system or other system of turbine-genratorunit for logical treatment and outputs signal indicating or turbine shutoff signal. ETSsends stop instructions under following situations:

1.6.2.1  When turbine is over speeding to 3300rpm.

9) Air side returning oil tank vacuum should be kept within -250~-500Pa.

10) Turbine main oil source supplying pressure.

11) Oil smoke removing machine runs well.

6.16.4.2. Oil system operation1) Air-side seal oil system operationa Main operating oil source: the normal working oil source of the air-side seal oil is

supplied by the AC electric seal oil pump. The outlet pressure of seal oil pump is0.25- 0.8 MPa. Oil-supply of the shaft seal ring uses the by-pass differential pressureregulator to adjust the difference of hydrogen and seal oil. The differential pressureregulator adjusts the air-side oil pressure automatically according to the hydrogenpressure in the generator to ensure that the normal operation of the shaft seal ringand the difference of hydrogen and seal oil is 0.084MPa.

b The first spare oil source (that is the main spare oil source) is the 1.6~1.7MPahydraulic oil from the main oil pump of the steam turbine. This spare oil is suppliedfor the air-side shaft seal ring after pressure is reduced through the pressure-reliefvalve on the pipeline. The outlet oil pressure at the pressure-relief valve is0.7~0.8MPa. And the oil mass is 250L/min. when the operating oil source is out oforder and the difference of hydrogen and seal oil reduces to 0. 056MPa, the sparedifferential pressure regulator installed in the pipe will open automatically and thespare oil source will be also in operation automatically.

c The second spare oil source is also supplied by the steam turbine oil system, that is,the spare AC electric seal oil pump in the main oil tank of the steam turbine. The oilpressure is 1.0MPa. Since it is in the same pipeline as the first one, this spare oilsource enters the shaft seal ring through the spare differential pressure regulator

and is put into operation when the differential pressure reduces to 0.056MPa. Whenthe coaxial rotational speed of the steam turbine exceeds 2/3 of the specified speed,the main shaft oil pump of the steam turbine can supply oil with the first oil source;when it is lower than that number or when it is out of order, only the second oilsource can be in operation.

d The third spare oil source is supplied by the self-contained DC electric oil pump inthe seal oil system. The DC electric oil pump and the alternate current electric oilpump are merged in the same pipeline, when differential pressure reduces to0.035MPa, the DC oil pump will start, and hydrogen oil differential pressure willcome back to 0.084MPa. This oil source can only work for about 2 hour, so thealternate current oil pump should be checked and repaired as soon as possible.

e The fourth spare oil source is also supplied by the stream turbine oil system. The oilis supplied by the bearing lubricating oil pump of the stream turbine, and the oil

pressure is relatively low, that is, 0.035~0.105MPa. So at this time the hydrogen

pressure in the turbine should be reduced to 0.014MPa.

2) Hydrogen-side seal oil system operation

Normal working oil source of hydrogen-side seal oil is supplied by AC seal oil pump,

when AC seal oil pump has fault, DC seal oil pump will supply seal oil to it.

6.16.5 System stop

6.16.5.1 Stop conditions

1) Make sure that gas displacement in generator has already finished, air in generatorhas been exhausted.

2) Turning gear stops. When rotor runs, sealing oil system has to stop; otherwise it willdamage sealing pad.
