General information / introduction

This paper is primarily meant as a practical introduction into the field of KHD-fans with the aim to facilitate handling and commissioning, maintenance and elimination of trouble during operation. KHD Humboldt Wedag GmbH mainly manufactures fans for the cement industry and can look back on a long tradition and experience and carry on this basis. Thanks to their robust construction the KHD fans are designed for especially rough operating conditions at a high degree of operational safety. For all materials used great importance is attached to good weldability and high toughness. The fields of application of the KHD fans primarily are the transport of hot gases and dusts. e.g. as: Raw meal fans with high dusts loads and high differential pressures Preheater fans, suitable for temperatures up to 450 C with narrow blades for operation at low vibrations and at the same time low tendency to form accretions and high efficiency. Dedusting fans for kiln waste gas dedusting, cooler- and bypass dedusting for large volumetric flows at low pressures Fans for cement grinding with particularly abrasive wear

Design of fans
The fans essentially consist of a centrifugal/radial ventilator wheel (blades backward curved) on a shaft carried in antifriction bearings and the housing designed as guiding attachment. The conveying rate can be controlled with the aid of inlet vane vane control/louvre damper and/or speed controller. However a further option are the losses through a throttle flap arranged upstream in the tube. This option is readily made use of for raw meal fans with constant operation. The impeller and shaft are dynamically balanced (ISO DIN 1940 G3,4). Our workshop can balance impellers up to a diameter of approx. 4.5 m and a maximum weight of 12 t. The shafts are manufactured up to tip widths of 7.8 m. The impellers are designed for a maximum circumferential speed of 185 m/s. The materials of the impellers can be used at operating temperatures up to 450 C. Regarding the strength the shafts are designed with high safeties and are, according to customer requests, designed with the predetermined distances to the critical natural frequency, at least, however, with factor 1.4 (sub-critical operation). Mainly used are oil-lubricated self-aligning roller bearings. Deviating from this in some cases also grease-lubricated bearings. These bearings have a simple design and require no separate cooling (oil cooling, air cooling) and can be used at high temperatures. The bearings can easily be exchanged. Oil lubrication by means of an oil supply ring ensures a low-cost, trouble-free and low-maintenance operation. Due to simple antifriction bearings the fan can be operated with very low speeds which is not permitted for plain bearings on account of the hydrodynamical lubrication principle which could also result in increased wear. The antifriction bearings (self-aligning roller bearings) are designed for a service life of at least 100000 h.
As required, the arrangement is made rigid or flexible (by means of spring element). Whereas the fans in high buildings are mainly arranged flexibly (reduction of the dynamical forces to approx. 3 %), fans set up directly on the foundation can be rigidly anchored for the purpose of simplifying the technique and minimizing of the costs. The fans are distinguished according to the different pressure differences into low-pressure/medium pressure and high-pressure fans (up to 185 m/s circumferential speed). High-pressure fans with self-aligning roller bearings are exclusively designed with cylindrical seat (no tensioning sleeves). Depending on use, size and speed the fans are built single-inlet or double-inlet, for which the single-inlet low-pressure fans up to a diameter of 3.35 m are designed overhung; highpressure fans (with narrow wheels) are designed overhung up to a diameter of 3.15 m for a max. speed of 1000 1/min. Moreover, the fan shafts are supported on either side. Low capacities can be realized with the aid of belt drive for the purpose of simple speed variation. Because of easier handling/maintenance and for reasons of safety capacities >400 kW are only transmitted with low-maintenance couplings and/or spur gearings. Low-pressure/medium pressure fans are mainly used as dedusting fans and due to the high amount of air these are largely of twin-stream design with low speeds.
Advantage of single-inlet type: low cost, utilization of tumbling effect (Koriolis force) only one inlet Advantage of double-inlet type: high air capacity at low density, lower circumferential speed of the impeller than in case of an equivalent single-inlet impeller. Lower axial forces. Lower motor costs. The kiln- and cooler dedusting fans are of double-inlet type on account of the high amount of air. The classifier fan (cement grinding) is of single-inlet and overhung type due to the high wear which ensures that the fan shaft is not exposed to wear caused by the material. By ample dimensioning of the impeller , wear at the armoured impeller is low and has an long service life also in case of increased dust. Given below is a short survey of the fans presently taken into operation and those which will be taken into operation.

Impeller design
KHD-impellers are preferably manufactured for high differential pressures in narrow design (large ratio of impeller outer diameter relative to the blade width). This causes steady running properties, thus ensuring smooth running (minor oscillations and self stabilization due to Koriolis-effect respectively) and insensitivity especially for hot gases against dust accumulations/-accretions. KHD-impellers are manufactured with rotating inlet nozzle due to which enlarged gaps as a result of manufacturing inaccuracies cause less losses of efficiency. The range of the diameter ratio D2/D1 reaches from 0.35 0.71. Preheater/high-pressure fans are designed with a diameter ratio from 0.35 to 0.63. Large volumetric flows at low pressures (e.g. waste gas fans) are designed with a diameter ratio of 0.71. Blade outlet angle 2=47- 75 For small outlet angles the tendency to form accretions increases especially for preheater fans. The Hasanoglan preheater fan has an outlet angle of 50 . This reduces the tendency to form accretions. For waste gas fans with high air capacities at simultaneously low pressure differential preferably small outlet angles are used on account of the high efficiencies. The blade inlet angle is mainly 1 = 35 .

Blade shape: airfoil advantages: efficiency 0.84-0.86 minor accretions on the front Drawbacks: major manufacturing expenditure high tendency to form accretions on the rearmajor drop of efficiency (to 0.72-0.75) in case of accretions flow guide plate thin, therefore wear-through danger ensuing dust accumulations in the blade causing unbalance which is hard to eliminate Blade shape: backward curved 1=2=4045logarithmically bent blades Advantages: efficiency 0.80-0.84 drawbacks: high manufacturing expenditure high tendency to form accretions on the rear due to small outletangle 1=2 circular blades (at Humboldt 1=35and 2=50-63 ) Advantages: efficiency 0.78-0.82 low manufacturing expenditure minor tendency to form accretions on the rear Blade shape: radial tip 2=90- circular blades Advantages: no accretions on the rear low manufacturing expenditure Drawbacks: efficiency 0.65-0.75 High tendency to form accretions at the front Blade shape: radial Advantages: no accretions on the rear negligible manufacturing expenditure Drawbacks: efficiency 0.6-0.65 high tendency to form accretions at the front

Comparison of different control systems

Preheater fans are principally equipped with speed control Mill fans are principally eyquipped with throttle flap, inlet vane control or louvre damper Classifier fans: inlet vane control or speed control Inlet vane control:
+simple control insensitive to trouble +for small control range low cost of power -high losses for large control ranges <0.7 V +excellently suited for classifier and mill fans (small control range) -higher sound emission -slip ring motor required / higher costs - no linear characteristic
Speed control:
+large control range, low power requirement in the lower to medium control range +motor: low-priced squirrel-cage +low mechanical expenditure +low wear of impeller +no maintenance of a servodrive/guide vane controller +minor sound emission +linear control characteristic -high-cost converter -electric losses at least 6 % in the converter -additional flap for tube system possibly required
29
Louvre damper
Throttle flap:
+simple handling at maximum pressure difference and large units -higher losses than for inlet vane control at large control ratio V/Vmin +very suitable as starting aid e.g. for raw mill fans (in tube in front of fan) +low-cost solution with minor resistance (if not throttled) +low mechanic expenditure -can result in problems when starting in the non-stable range (if no speed control is existing) +few wear parts +increased noise emission -high losses upon strong throttling by additional differential pressure

Assembly/erection
Base frame/foundation frame Base frame (for flexible support: foundation frame) to be aligned in the plane and space (50 mm) to be grouted with fine concrete. In case of split base frame the distance of the bearing plates and recesses for the bearing plates to be welded indicated in the schedule must be kept. Bearing plates The bearing plates must be let into the corresponding recesses of the base frames and aligned according to the schedule. The different bearing plates shall have been aligned in the plane for which a base frame aligned in the plane is taken for granted. The deviation from parallelism of the bearing plates (towards each other) should not exceed 0.2 mm. The deviation from the plane should not exceed 0.1 mm. The upper supporting surface of the bearing plates has been machined and must not be mixed up. The aligned bearing plates must be welded to the base frame with minor distortions. (one after the other alternately short opposite seams) Through the weld seam in the neutral zone of the properly dimensioned bearing plates distortions are substantially excluded.
35
Mounting of bearing plates at site
36
Assembly
At first the bottom part of the housing and of the inlet cone are placed in the base frame and provisionally aligned. Impeller with shaft are placed on the aligned bearing plates and screwed. When doing so the movable bearing clearance for the expansion caused by the temperature must be observed. The bearing housings shall be installed right-angled to the shaft axis as oil leakages may occur due to non-uniform sealing gaps. It is by no means allowed to place individual different lining plates underneath the bearing housings. This may result in distortions and/or damage to the bearing. Now the housing top and the top of the inlet cone must be fitted and aligned relative to the shaft. The shaft seal/packing box and movable- and fixed bearing must freely rest on the shaft seats. After alignment and screwing of the housing supports on the frame supports, the housing supports must be welded to the housing and missing reinforcements must be fitted to the housing. Afterwards the shaft seal must be checked once more.
37
KHD Humboldt Wedag GmbH Alignment of inlet cone The nozzle of the inlet cone must be aligned and formed so that a minimum radial gap of 6 mm to the impeller is existing. The nozzle of the inlet cone should project into the impeller by 25-30 mm. Incorrect inlet cones may entail a reduced transport capacity. Tubes/expansion joints All tubes must have been installed so that no forces whatsoever can act on the fan. Especially in case of flexibly supported fans all expansion joints should be freely movable. Spring element The spring elements shall have been aligned so that the machine is level. This can simply be found out by way of the spring element height which, among each other, should not deviate from each other by more than 3 mm (for spring element height, see the information given in the foundation drawing) The drive, coupling and the motor must be arranged precisely parallel to the axis. Angle deviations and parallel offset may entail oscillations. Control elements such as inlet vane controllers must have been arranged in the direction of the air flow. The correct opening direction should be verified as described below: Inlet vane control half-opened, guide vanes of inlet vane control shall point in the direction of rotation of the housing helix growing to the housing outlet. The same principle shall also be applied for the louvre dampers, where at half-opened louvre damper the air stream shall be directed in the sense of rotation of the opening housing helix.
38
Commissioning
Prior to commissioning the movable bearing clearance specified in the documentation has to be verified by dismantling of the bearing top. The oil supply ring for oil lubrication must be loosely suspended on the shaft. The oil level of the bearing housing must be within the range of the limit values and the grease labyrinths must have been filled with grease. The bearing housings must be free from leakages. The gap of the grease-lubricated labyrinth seal must be regular (+-0.5 mm), otherwise the bearing housing must be newly aligned. (In case of an irregular gap oil leakages may occur due the pump effect. The bearing housings must have been directly mounted on the bearing plate. It is not permitted to use lining plates. All bearing monitoring systems (bearing temperature and bearing oscillation) must be checked for proper functioning/interlocking (for max. temperature see the documentation oil 75 C grease storage 65 C) The clearance between inlet cone and impeller must be verified as per documentation. (approx. 6 mm) The impeller must at no point have a mechanical contact. All fastening screws must be checked for proper tightening. Check of direction of rotation of the impeller and inlet vane control (if any). All expansion joints must be checked for free movability, whether no load from the tube can act upon the fan. Check of spring elements for uniform clamping height. Check of drive for angularity/offset and check of gap between drive and output end according to the documentation. Check of bearing housing for angularity relative to the shaft, the sealing gap of the grease labyrinths must be uniform. The shaft seal of the fan housing must have been freely mounted on the shaft. Prior to commissioning it must be checked whether rain water, if any, inside the housing must be drained. During commissioning the bearing temperature must be observed more intensely to avoid damage due to incorrect assembly (see the documentation). Causes for increased temperatures at the bearing are less wear of the bearing but: Lack of oil Too small bearing clearance due the shaft expansion caused by the temperature Distorted bearing; caused by uneven support (bearing plates) Distinct feature: obvious in the frequency spectrum at strong sidebands beside the operating frequency. Incorrect fitting of the oil supply ring (rigidly clamped) Insufficient bearing clearance due to incorrect assembly on the base frame (base frame incorrectly positioned) Clamping device not correctly mounted. For grease storages, in most cases too much greased after topping up Use of unsuitable grease especially upon high operating speeds the lubrication greases should not contain ageing additives which may narrow the gap (no hot bearing greases) In case of temperature problems the bearing housings should not be cooled from outside; this additionally narrows the bearing gap. Increased bearing temperatures caused by convection should be reduced by means of a thermal shield and and stronger cooling vane.
39
Operation
Constant, troublefree operation can only be ensured by observing the data specified in the technical documentation: Listed below are some essential causes of trouble:
Loss of efficiency: too large gap between inlet cone and impeller poor intake conditions (knee/bend in tube shortly in front of suction cone) inlet not free of spins branching of tube shortly behind fan incorrectly designed density (incorrect height indication, operating temperature, standard density) Example Kerman Momtazan: Density at inlet 0.602 kg/m at altitude 0 and 0.477 kg/m at actual altitude 1700 m (26 % difference in the density) Moreover, an indication of an insufficient density may prompt insufficient dimensioning of the motor capactiy.This must expecially be observed for speed controls, as in this case the transformer has a higher thermal load due to the increased torque at low speed. Aerodynamical trouble /pumps: The fan should be operated always on the left of the summit point of its characteristic curve. During operation in the non-stable range (performance graph on the left of the summit point) oscillations caused by air pulsation may result in damage to the machine. In this case a remedy is a guide vane controller or a louvre damper. Vane-controlled machines with high speed (>1500 1/min) should be operated with slightly opened guide vane controller in the starting phase in order to avoid oscillations.
40
Increased oscillations: Possible causes: Unbalance due to transport damage, distortion caused by overheating, accretions, strong wear Defective, not free, expansion joints Loose or distorted machine parts (not adequately assembled) Damage in impeller (for example crack in reinforcing cone) Generally transport damage is obvious at the cover plate or at the bottom plate (caused by hard placing during reloading) and should be remedied by dynamical balancing according to DIN ISO 1940 Q6,3. Here, special attention should be focussed on the axial oscillations as this may cause cracks in the reinforcing cone of the impeller and damage to the bearing. This also applies to distorted impellers as a result of overheating especially regarding preheater fans. Worn-down impellers should be repaired in part and afterwards dynamically balanced (by KHD specialists). Accretions and accumulations especially occur at mill fans and preheater fans on the blade rear. For mill fans the effects of accretions can be kept low or without decisive influence as described below. blades with outlet angle >= 47 use of narrow blades contrary to clean gas impellers
KHD Humboldt Wedag GmbH Accretions in preheater fans Partial coming-off of the accretions, when reaching a critical accretion compound major unbalance is created at the impeller, which occur as major horizontal oscillations. Factors which influence the tendency to form accretions : Velocity of the dust particles inside the impeller-inlet nozzle. This velocity in inlet should be kept below 40 m/s. Tests of several well-known fan manufacturers revealed that from 40 m/s the tendency to form accretions strongly increases. Temperature of the medium to be conveyed From 300 C temperature of medium to be conveyed sligh t accretions are to be expected, for which the physical-chemical properties of the dust particles influence this temperature limit. Above 350 C operating temperature the tendency to fo rm accretions becomes stronger and should be minimized with the aid of narrow blades and large blade outlet angles. Speed of fan The speed of the preheater fans should not exceed 1000 1/min and the circumferential speed of the impeller should range below 185 m/s. Blade shape The blade shape influences localization of accretions at the impeller (see under Enclosure). The blades should be preferably narrow and provided with outlet angles >47 . (At Hasanoglan 50have been realized at the preheater fan Physical-chemical properties of the dust particles Dust with higher clay component causes hard, layer-type accretions on the blade rear sides. Accretions can passively be reduced by means of an acoustic horn.

Increased wear:
Raw meal is less abrasive than cement dust, however as from a dust portion of 60 g/m especially for roller press grinding the impeller should be armoured. If no high differential pressures (as for vertical mills) are requested, the gas velocity in the impeller inlet should be kept below 34 m/s. Wear is yet increased due to especially coarse grain size of the dusts contained in the air to be transported.
Expansion joints:
The expansion joints should have been fitted freely movable and should be free from material/accretions. No load from the weight from the tube must be introduced. Increased oscillation through solid expansion joints (stops) are obvious from the flattening of the upper sinus oscillation in the oscillograph.
Loose defective parts:

Increased oscillations can occur loose or by incorrect placing of the bearing housings on the bearing plates. This missing stiffness is manifested by strong vertical oscillations (larger than horizontal) which have maximum amplitude for the operating frequency.
Damage inside impeller:

Increased oscillations can be caused by damage already occurred inside the impeller. This damage can be cracks or heavily worn-down zones. Therefore, it is absolutely required that the permissible limit values are not exceeded and the machine is stopped or inspected. During operation it should always be made sure that the axial oscillations are lower than the radial oscillations, as these cause cross-oscillations in the impeller bottom.
