Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for anticipatory, also referred to as predictive, start-up of steam turbines and a module for carrying out the method according to claims 1 and 23 and is particularly suitable for An ⁇ fahroptimierung of steam turbines with and without Darnpf reheating.
  • the plant operator incurs increased own costs, since the power generation takes place after the synchronization of the generator with the electrical supply network with a greatly reduced thermal efficiency compared to the operation of the turbine with the rated steam parameters.
  • the power plant blocks are operated according to the power requirement of the electrical supply network. If the power requirement of the supply network is low, selected power plant blocks must even be completely switched off. On the other hand, if the power consumption increases again, the power plant blocks are started again and switched to the electrical supply network. For the power plant operator, this startup process is costly and, in particular, depending on the downtime of a power plant block, the startup costs increase steadily.
  • the start of the boiler includes only a relatively small portion of the ge entire startup process of a power plant block.
  • the start-up period in which the costs are influenced by the boiler, is limited to the rapid provision of steam for the turbine start.
  • the starting parameters such as the live steam temperature and the inlet temperature of the superheated steam into the turbine, are usually selected according to the instantaneous metal temperature of the respective turbine parts.
  • the amount of steam supplied by the boiler via the diverting stations and the starting steam pressure of the boiler are decisively influenced by the structural design of the boiler.
  • start-up diagram for the shortest startup duration from the boiler and turbine suppliers, starting with the shortest startup duration can only be parameterized with the start steam set, such as the start steam temperature, the start steam pressure and the start metal temperature of the critical turbine components. For a cost-effective startup of the turbine and thereby also the power plant block thus the following two conditions must be met.
  • the first necessary condition for the cost-effective startup of the turbine and thus also of the power plant block is that the allowances of the allowable stress on the turbine metals are fully utilized for achieving the shortest turbine run.
  • the second necessary condition for the cost-effective startup of the turbine and thereby also of the power plant block is achieved by optimizing the increase of the inlet vapor pressure into the turbine.
  • the stress on the turbine metal in particular in the turbine rotors and the housing wall of the turbine, has hitherto been regulated by means of a so-called limit regulation, which becomes active only in the region above the allowable stress of the turbine.
  • This limit regulation corrects only for a short time the gradient of the inlet steam temperature of the turbine, if the stress of the turbine metal exceeds the permissible loading limit.
  • no regulation takes place on a nominal value of the stress in the range below the allowable stress of the turbine core.
  • the border control With the use of the border control, the shortest starting time of the turbine, and thereby also of the entire power plant block, which the power plant operator strives for is not achievable.

Assuming that the shortest startup duration is ensured after a startup diagram, only the startup steam temperatures predefined in the startup diagram and the vapor pressure increase defined in the startup diagram apply.

  • thermodynamic behavior of the real turbine system is replicated stationary and dynamic and accelerated compared to the behavior of the real plant accelerated by a multiple , with which the operator of the power plant block advantageously has the preview of the required steam parameters for the starting process of the turbine within a very short time.
  • the acceleration factor can be set as large as desired by means of an adjuster placed on the predictive approach module.
  • the inlet steam parameters refer to the live steam temperature and the live steam pressure for turbines without reheating and to the fresh steam steam temperature, the live steam pressure and also on the inlet steam temperature and the inlet steam pressure in turbines with reheat.
  • the desired start steam temperature and the desired start steam pressure are also determined and made available to the boiler control for implementation be put.
  • thermodynamic parameters determined with the module according to the invention are compared with the current parameters of the real turbine.
  • the device for determining the reference voltage requires no measuring probe, which advantageously eliminates a costly design of the probe for detecting the stress of the critical turbine components, in particular in the double-housing design of a high-pressure turbine part due to the different housing expansions.
