Turbine steam temperature
Thread Content
Our factory originally had steam boilers for generating steam; the steam turbines were designed for a pressure of 3.5–3.6 MPa and a temperature of 350–365 degrees℃； From an energy-saving perspective, the steam from power plants is being utilized; currently, this steam has a pressure of 3.9 MPa and a temperature of 410°C. Does such a high temperature of the steam affect the operation of the turbines? What impact?
High temperatures are beneficial for energy savings, as they allow for reduced steam consumption
But it shouldn’t be too high either; it’s best to use it according to the parameters provided by the manufacturer.
Agreed; it’s also possible to consult the relevant standards in the power industry
Be careful!!! First, check the technical specifications of the equipment; if the temperature exceeds the range that the equipment can handle, it will subject the equipment to excessive thermal stress, which in turn affects the strength of its components! The temperature must be kept within the specified technical limits!!!!
Gentlemen, can low steam temperature cause high turbine vibration?
