Hydraulic Turing Gear

Function The function of the hydraulic turning gear is to rotate the shaft system at sufficient speed before start-up and after shut-down in order to avoid irregular heating up or cooling down and thus avoid any distortion of the turbine rotors. The air flow set up by the blades along the inner wall of the casing during turning operation provides good heat transfer conducive to temperature equalization between upper and lower casing halves.

Operation During turning gear operation, the shaft system is rotated by a blade wheel which is driven by oil supplied by the auxiliary oil pump. This oil passes via a check valve into the nozzle box (1) and from there into the nozzles (2) which direct the oil jet in front of the blading.

Manual Turning Gear

Function The turbine generator is equipped with a mechanical barring gear, which enables the combined shaft system to be rotated manually in the event of a failure of the normal hydraulic turning gear. It is located at IP - LP pedestal

Hydraulic Jacking Device

Function When the turbine is started up or shut down, the hydraulic jacking device is used to maintain the oil film between rotor and bearings. The high-pressure oil is forced under the individual bearing, thus raising the rotor. The necessary torque from the hydraulic turning device or from the manual turning device is reduced in this way.

Turbine Monitoring System In addition to measuring and display instruments for pressure, temperatures, valve lifts and speed, the monitoring system also includes instruments for measuring and indicating the following parameters: Rotor expansion measured at the rear bearing pedestal of the LP turbine Axial shift measured at the HP-IP pedestal. Bearing pedestal vibration, measured at all turbine bearings Shaft vibration measured at all turbine bearings
