Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for increasing the steam mass flow of a high-pressure steam turbine of a steam power plant, in particular a steam power plant with intermediate overheating, during a start-up phase of the steam power plant, especially during idling of the steam power plant.
  • the boiler of the power plant When starting or starting a fossil-fired power plant, the boiler of the power plant is first driven to minimum load (usually 30 to 40%).
  • the live steam generated during this run-up phase is usually first bypassed the steam turbine during (so-called) bypass operation.
  • the live steam In systems with reheating, the live steam is passed through a high-pressure bypass station, sprayed to a lower temperature level and then directed into the cold line of reheat.
  • the steam, which leaves the hot stream of reheat is fed through a medium-pressure bypass station and, after cooling, fed into the condenser by means of injection water.
  • a high pressure level in the reheat (usually about 20-30 bar) is an effective cooling of the acted upon with flue gas reheater pipes is guaranteed.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method by which can be reduced without great effort and cost as possible before adjusting the network synchronization during a start-up phase of a steam power plant high temperatures.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention with the above-mentioned method for increasing the steam mass flow of a high-pressure steam turbine of a steam power plant, which in particular has a reheat, during a start-up phase, and in particular during idling of the steam power plant in which a generator of the steam power plant Synchronization with a power supply network at least one electrical load is switched on.
  • the no-load power is artificially increased on the electrical side, accompanied by a corresponding increase in the steam mass flow already before synchronization with a power supply network.
  • the high-pressure turbine of a steam power plant with an increased steam mass flow can generate more power in such a way that the generator is already energized early and electrical consumers are switched on before the grid synchronization.
  • This electrically generated power is dissipated to electrical consumers, preferably in the form of resistors. given, which must be cooled accordingly.
  • the associated with the process according to the invention increased steam mass flow before mains synchronization causes in particular the high-pressure turbine less ventilated at idle and therefore the Abdampf Scheme and the line of the cold
  • Strangs the reheat even at very high steam temperatures can be designed with less expensive materials, especially because the temperature differences between idling and rated load operation are no longer so pronounced.
  • the electrical load preferably in the form of an electrical resistance, is arranged in a feedwater tank of the steam power plant in order to supply the electrical power
  • the electrical load is arranged in a condensate collecting tank of a condenser of the steam power plant.
  • a cooling of the electrical load can also be achieved by arranging the electrical load in the cooling water of the steam power plant, wherein both main cooling water and secondary cooling water can be used for cooling.
  • the invention further relates to a steam power plant, with which the inventive method is feasible, with a generator, a high-pressure steam turbine and at least one electrical load, which can be connected during a start-up phase of the steam power plant to the generator to before synchronization of the generator with To increase a power supply network, a steam mass flow of the high-pressure steam turbine.

  • FIG. 1 shows the structure of a steam power plant according to the invention.
  • the steam power plant 10 includes, inter alia, a boiler 12, a high pressure turbine 14, a medium pressure turbine 16, a low pressure turbine 18, a generator 20, a condenser 22 with sump 24 , a feedwater tank 26 with degasser, live steam lines 28 and a support line 30.
  • the boiler 12 When starting or starting up the steam power plant 10, the boiler 12 is initially driven to minimum load (usually 30-40%), wherein the generated steam is usually initially passed by the high-pressure turbine 14 (bypass operation).
  • the bypass operation is realized here by closing the quick-action valve 32 or control valve 34 arranged in the steam inflow region of the high-pressure turbine 14, wherein the live steam is conducted via a high-pressure bypass station 36, sprayed to a lower temperature level and then supplied to a reheat 38 , first the cold strand 40 of the reheat.
  • the steam leaving the hot leg 42 of the ZU is fed via a medium pressure Diverter station 44 and passed after cooling by injection water into the condenser 22. Due to a high pressure level in the intermediate superheating 38 (usually approx. 20-30 bar), effective cooling of the reheater pipes treated with flue gas is ensured.
  • the high pressure in the cold section 40 of the reheating at the outlet of the high-pressure turbine 14 leads to temperatures which are particularly high in the hot-air turbine. or warm start are significantly higher than in rated load operation.
  • the reason for this is low temperature degradation or ventilation in the high pressure turbine 14 at low steam mass flows.
  • An increase in this idling mass flow is not possible due to the speed control, since the turbine-generator train can still deliver power to the grid. Only after synchronization with the network can the power and thus the mass flow be increased, but the temperature differences between the steam and the components of the turbines must not become too large.
  • the exhaust area of the high pressure turbine 14 and the cold reheat line 40 this means that they are exposed to greatly elevated and rapidly changing temperatures, which may involve the use of expensive materials to design the exhaust steam section of the high pressure turbine 14 and cold leg 40 require reheat.
  • At least one electrical load in the form of an electrical resistor 46 is switchably coupled to the generator 20 (see dotted lines in FIG.
  • the resistor 46 and the resistors 46 may be arranged according to the invention for their cooling in the feedwater tank 26, in the condensate collection tank 24 or in the cooling water. If, according to the invention, the generator 20 is prematurely energized before synchronization of the generator 20 with a power supply network, one or more can several of the electrical resistors 46 are switched on. Thus, the idling power on the electrical side is artificially increased even before synchronization, along with a corresponding increase in the steam mass flow.
  • the tubes of the reheat 38 are already cooled more, since less steam has to be drawn from the cold strand 40 of the reheat over the support line 30 onto the feed water tank 26 in order to ensure degassing.
  • the idle now higher mass flow through the high-pressure turbine 14 leads to a greater degradation of the enthalpy and thus lower high-pressure Abdampftemperaturen.
  • increasing the idle power from 5 to 15 MW would bring about a reduction of the high-pressure steaming temperature from 580 ° C. to 510 ° C.
