TURBINE PROCESS and PARTS

300MW STEAM TURBINE


Turbine is a prime mover. It can rotate pump, compressor, alternator etc.

Types of Turbine:-
            There are three types
            1. Gas Turbine

            2. Steam Turbine

            3. Water Turbine

Gas Turbine:-
            Gas fired directly inside the casing and diffuser, heat power rotates the rotary.

Steam Turbine:-
            Steam will flow inside the turbine through NAZZLE by HP/IP/LP three stages, it can be rotated the rotary.

Water Turbine:-
            Water pressurized then injected through NAZZLE and VANES, it can be rotated rotary.

Pressure should be controlled by PCV (Butterfly Valve)

            The entire turbine should be governed by Governor.

                        (Governor-Speed controlling mechanism for variation of load.)

Types of Governor:-
1.     Hit and miss governing

2.     Quality governing

3.     Quantity governing

Types of Steam Turbine:-
1.     Evaporation Type- More than atmosphere pressure.

2.     Condensate Type-Less than atmosphere pressure.

Types of Water Turbine:-
1.     Impulse Type-Water directly the injected in VANES.

2.     Reaction Type-Water indirectly the injected in VENES.

Steam Turbine Standard Code:-
API 611, API 612

                                                            (API stands-American Petroleum Institute.)  

RPM – Revolution per Minute

                                    Process variables:
