The current is dimensioned such that lost heat of the generator caused by the current does not damage the generator.

Description

Beim Betrieb eines Turbosatzes mit einer Dampfturbine und einem Generator für eine Dampfturbinenanlage kann es zu Störfällen kommen, die ein Abfahren des Turbosatzes notwendig machen. Das Abfahren des Turbosatzes erfolgt in der Regel durch ein Trennen des Generators von einem angekoppelten Stromnetz sowie einem Verringern einer Frischdampfzufuhr der Dampfturbine. Der vom Stromnetz abgekoppelte Generator läuft dann im Leerlauf mit der Dampfturbine. Nach dem Trennen des Generators vom Stromnetz sowie dem Verringern der Frischdampfzufuhr wird eine im Turbosatz gespeicherte kinetische Energie im Wesentlichen via einem Reibungsverlust an einem zur Dampfturbinenanlage gehörigen Lager sowie via einem Ventilationsverlust in der Dampfturbine abgebaut. Da die Reibungs- und die Ventilationsverluste typischerweise klein gegenüber der im Turbosatz gespeicherten kinetischen Energie sind, weist der Turbosatz lange Auslaufzeiten von bis zu einer Stunde auf.When operating a turbo set with a steam turbine and a generator for a steam turbine plant, it can lead to incidents that require a shutdown of the turbo set. The shutdown of the turbo set is usually done by disconnecting the generator from a coupled power grid and reducing a live steam supply of the steam turbine. The decoupled from the mains generator then runs at idle with the steam turbine. After disconnecting the generator from the mains and reducing the live steam supply, a kinetic energy stored in the turbine set is substantially reduced via a friction loss at a bearing associated with the steam turbine plant and via a ventilation loss in the steam turbine. Since the friction and ventilation losses are typically small compared to the kinetic energy stored in the turbine set, the turbo set has long flow times of up to one hour.

Zudem durchfährt der Turbosatz sogenannte Schaufelresonanzen, wobei es zu starken Schwingungen an einer zur Turbine gehörigen Beschaufelung kommen kann. Dies kann zu einem Lebensdauerverbrauch der Beschaufelung führen, wobei ein langsameres Durchfahren des Turbosatzes durch die Schaufelresonanzen einem größeren Lebensdauerverbrauch gleich stehen kann. Daher ist ein zügiges Abfahren des Turbosatzes wünschenswert.In addition, the turbo set passes through so-called blade resonances, which can lead to strong vibrations on a blade belonging to the turbine. This can lead to a lifetime consumption of the blading, wherein a slower passage through the turbine set by the blade resonances can be equal to a greater lifetime consumption. Therefore, a quick shutdown of the turbo set is desirable.

Eine bekannte Maßnahme den Abfahrvorgang zu beschleunigen ist ein Vakuum eines zur Dampfturbinenanlage gehörigen Kondensators zu brechen, wodurch die Ventilationsverluste erhöht werden. Bei dieser, bei Notfallabschaltungen eingesetzten Maßnahme entstehen jedoch zusätzliche Belastungen an der Beschaufelung, wodurch ein noch höherer Lebensdauerverlust auftritt.A known measure to accelerate the shutdown process is to break a vacuum of a capacitor belonging to the steam turbine plant, whereby the ventilation losses are increased. In this case, used in emergency shutdowns measure However, additional loads on the blading, resulting in an even higher loss of life occurs.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zum Abfahren eines Turbosatzes für eine Dampfturbinenanlage zu schaffen, bei dem die oben genannten Probleme weitestgehend vermieden sind und insbesondere die Auslaufzeit des Turbosatzes verkürzt ist.The invention has for its object to provide a method for running a turbo set for a steam turbine plant, in which the above problems are largely avoided and in particular the flow time of the turbo set is shortened.

Die Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß mit einem Verfahren zum Abfahren eines Turbosatzes für eine Dampfturbinenanlage gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen beschrieben.The object is achieved with a method for running a turbo set for a steam turbine plant according to claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zum Abfahren eines Turbosatzes für eine Dampfturbinenanlage weist die Schritte auf: Bereitstellen des Turbosatzes, der eine Dampfturbine und einen Generator umfasst, wobei der Generator eine Erregermaschine und eine Erregerwicklung aufweist; Antreiben der Dampfturbine mit Frischdampf und Abführen der Generatorleistung an einen Leistungsempfänger; Abkoppeln des Generators vom Leistungsempfänger; Verringern der Frischdampfzufuhr zur Turbine; Schalten des Generators in einen Teilkurzschlussbetrieb, wobei mittels der Erregermaschine die Erregerwicklung derart mit einem elektrischen Erregerstrom versorgt wird, dass der Generator als eine Last an der Dampfturbine wirkt, wobei der Erregerstrom derart dimensioniert ist, dass die vom Erregerstrom verursachte Verlustwärme des Generators diesen unversehrt lässt.The inventive method for running a turbine set for a steam turbine plant comprises the steps of: providing the turbo set comprising a steam turbine and a generator, the generator having an exciter and an excitation winding; Driving the steam turbine with live steam and dissipating the generator power to a power receiver; Disconnecting the generator from the power receiver; Reducing the live steam supply to the turbine; Switching of the generator in a partial short-circuit operation, wherein means of the exciter winding, the exciter winding is supplied with an electrical excitation current such that the generator acts as a load on the steam turbine, wherein the excitation current is dimensioned such that caused by the excitation current heat loss of the generator leaves it intact ,

Zum Verkürzen der von herkömmlichen Turbosätzen bekannten langen Auslaufzeit von bis zu einer Stunde wird erfindungsgemäß ein Verfahren vorgeschlagen, bei dem der Generator als eine Energiesenke für eine kinetische Energie des Turbosatzes dient. Dazu wird der Generator in einen Teilkurzschlussbetrieb geschaltet und die Erregerwicklung mit dem elektrischen Erregerstrom derart versorgt, dass sich eine Bremsleistung des Generators ergibt. Dadurch wird dem Turbosatz zusätzlich zu den sonst auftretenden Energieverlusten, wie etwa durch einen Reibungsverlust an einem zur Dampfturbinenanlage gehörigen Lager oder einem Ventilationsverlust in der Turbine, kinetische Energie entzogen, wodurch der Turbosatz abgebremst wird und eine deutlich kürzere Auslaufzeit hat.In order to shorten the long flow time of up to one hour known from conventional turbo sets, a method is proposed according to the invention in which the generator serves as an energy sink for a kinetic energy of the turbo set. For this purpose, the generator is switched to a partial short-circuit operation and the exciter winding supplied with the electrical exciter current such that there is a braking power of the generator results. As a result, in addition to the otherwise occurring energy losses, such as a loss of friction at a bearing associated with the steam turbine plant or a loss of ventilation in the turbine, kinetic energy is withdrawn from the turbo set, whereby the turbo set is decelerated and has a significantly shorter flow time.

Zudem durchfährt die Turbine beim Abfahren sogenannte Schaufelresonanzen, die starke Schaufelschwingungen nach sich ziehen können. Diese Schaufelschwingungen führen zu einer erhöhten Belastung der Turbine und können somit zu einem erhöhten Lebensdauerverbrauch führen. Aufgrund der bei einer Verwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens zum Abfahren des Turbosatzes verkürzten Auslaufzeit werden die Schaufelresonanzen schnell und folglich in einer kürzeren Zeitspanne durchfahren. Dadurch ist eine Belastung der Turbine aufgrund von starken Schaufelschwingungen verringert und ein damit einhergehender Lebensdauerverbrauch wird vorteilhaft minimiert.In addition, the turbine passes through so-called blade resonances, which can cause strong blade vibrations when driving off. These blade vibrations lead to an increased load on the turbine and can thus lead to an increased lifetime consumption. Due to the shortened when using the method according to the invention for running the turbo set flow time, the blade resonances are passed through quickly and consequently in a shorter period of time. As a result, a load on the turbine is reduced due to strong blade vibrations and associated lifetime consumption is advantageously minimized.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren weist bevorzugt der Generator einen Generatorkühler auf und das Verfahren umfasst die Schritte: Ermitteln der Generatorkühlerleistung des Generatorkühlers im Betrieb des Turbosatzes; Dimensionieren des Erregerstroms derart, dass die Verlustwärme die Generatorkühlerleistung nicht übersteigt. Ferner wird bevorzugt mittels der Erregermaschine die Erregerwicklung derart mit dem elektrischen Erregerstrom versorgt, dass die am Generator sich einstellende Verlustwärme stets der Generatorkühlerleistung entspricht. Dadurch wird dem Turbosatz kontinuierlich genau die Energiemenge entzogen, die als Verlustwärme durch den Generatorkühler maximal abgeleitet werden kann. Der Generator ist somit mittels dem bereits vorhandenen Generatorkühler vor einem thermischen Schaden geschützt, etwa durch ein Überhitzen seiner Erregerwicklung. Es wird also der Drehzahlgradient beim Abfahren des Turbosatzes mittels des Generators so groß wie möglich gestaltet, wodurch die Schaufelresonanzen schnellstmöglich durchfahren werden.In the method according to the invention, the generator preferably has a generator cooler and the method comprises the steps of: determining the generator cooling capacity of the generator cooler during operation of the turbo set; Dimensioning the exciting current so that the heat loss does not exceed the generator cooling capacity. Furthermore, the exciter winding is preferably supplied with the electrical excitation current by means of the excitation machine in such a way that the heat loss occurring at the generator always corresponds to the generator cooling power. As a result, the turbine set is continuously withdrawn precisely the amount of energy that can be derived as maximum heat loss through the generator cooler. The generator is thus protected by means of the already existing generator cooler from thermal damage, such as overheating of its field winding. Thus, the speed gradient during the shutdown of the turbo set by means of the generator is made as large as possible, whereby the blade resonances are traversed as quickly as possible.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird alternativ bevorzugt mittels der Erregermaschine die Erregerwicklung derart mit dem elektrischen Erregerstrom versorgt, dass eine mechanische Belastung des Turbosatzes beim Abfahren minimiert wird. Dabei ist bevorzugt der Grad der mechanischen Belastung des Turbosatzes hinsichtlich des Durchfahrens von Schaufelresonanzen definiert. Zum Minimieren der mechanischen Belastung des Turbosatzes wird der Generator in Abhängigkeit von an Bauteilen des Turbosatzes auftretenden mechanischen Belastungen betrieben, die insbesondere beim Durchfahren von Schaufelresonanzen resultieren. Um die mechanischen Belastungen gering zu halten, wird der Turbosatz mit einem an die Schaufelresonanzen angepassten Drehzahlgradienten abgefahren. Dazu wird mittels der Erregermaschine die Erregerwicklung derart mit dem elektrischen Erregerstrom versorgt, dass der Turbinenauslauf schonend verläuft, wodurch die mechanische Belastung minimiert wird.In the method according to the invention, alternatively, the excitation winding is preferably supplied with the electrical exciter current by means of the exciter machine in such a way that a mechanical loading of the turbo set during retraction is minimized. In this case, the degree of mechanical loading of the turbine set with regard to the passage through blade resonances is preferably defined. In order to minimize the mechanical load on the turbine set, the generator is operated as a function of mechanical loads occurring on components of the turbo set, which result in particular when passing through blade resonances. In order to keep the mechanical loads low, the turbo set is driven off with a speed gradient adapted to the blade resonances. For this purpose, the exciter winding is supplied with the electrical exciter current by means of the exciter machine such that the turbine outlet runs gently, whereby the mechanical load is minimized.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird die Generatorkühlerleistung bevorzugt in Abhängigkeit der dem Generator zugeführten mechanischen Leistung und der vom Generator abgegebenen elektrischen Klemmenleistung ermittelt. Dabei wird die Generatorkühlerleistung bevorzugt mit Hilfe des Generatorwirkungsgrads bestimmt.In the method according to the invention, the generator cooling power is preferably determined as a function of the mechanical power supplied to the generator and the electrical terminal power output by the generator. In this case, the generator cooling power is preferably determined by means of the generator efficiency.

Nachfolgend wird das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren um Abfahren eines Turbosatzes anhand der beigefügten schematischen Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 die Verläufe von diversen Leistungskurven aufgetragen über der Zeit, wenn eine am Generator sich einstellende Verlustwärme stets einer Generatorkühlerleistung entspricht, und
  • Fig. 2 die Verläufe von diversen Leistungskurven aufgetragen über der Zeit, wenn ein Erregerstrom des Generators derart dimensioniert ist, dass die mechanische Belastung des Turbosatzes minimiert ist.
The method according to the invention for starting a turbo set will be explained in more detail below with reference to the attached schematic drawings. Show it:
  • Fig. 1 the curves of various performance curves plotted over time, when a heat loss at the generator is always equal to a generator cooling capacity, and
  • Fig. 2 the curves of various power curves plotted against time when an excitation current of the generator is dimensioned such that the mechanical load of the turbo set is minimized.

In den Fig. 1 und 2 sind die Verläufe unterschiedlicher Leistungskurven zweier unterschiedlicher Ausführungsformen des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens dargestellt. Das Verfahren betrifft ein Abfahren eines Turbosatzes, der eine Turbine und einen Generator umfasst. Zum Erzeugen einer kinetischen Energie mittels des Turbosatzes wird der Turbine ein Frischdampf zugeführt, der in der Turbine sich entspannt und somit die Turbine antreibt. Die Turbine weist einen Rotor auf, der mit einem Rotor des Generators gekoppelt ist.In the Fig. 1 and 2 the curves of different power curves of two different embodiments of the method according to the invention are shown. The method relates to a shutdown of a turbine set comprising a turbine and a generator. To generate a kinetic energy by means of the turbo set, the turbine is supplied with a live steam, which relaxes in the turbine and thus drives the turbine. The turbine has a rotor coupled to a rotor of the generator.

Der Generator ist ferner mit einem Leistungsabnehmer gekoppelt, beispielsweise einem Stromnetz. Zum Abfahren des Turbosatzes wird die Frischdampfzufuhr zur Turbine verringert und der Generator vom Stromnetz getrennt. Herkömmlich läuft der Generator dann im Leerlauf mit der Turbine.The generator is further coupled to a power collector, for example a power grid. To shut down the turbo set, the live steam supply to the turbine is reduced and the generator is disconnected from the mains. Conventionally, the generator then idles with the turbine.

Eine Kurve 1 zeigt einen Verlauf der Drehzahl eines Turbosatzes beim Abfahren. Zum Abfahren des Turbosatzes wird die Frischdampfzufuhr zur Turbine verringert und zudem der Generator vom Stromnetz abgekoppelt, wodurch der Generator im Leerlauf mit dem Wellenstrang läuft. Ein Abbau der kinetischen Energie des Turbosatzes erfolgt unter anderem mittels Lagerreibungsverlusten an den zur Dampfturbinenanlage gehörigen Lagern sowie mittels Ventilationsverlusten in der Turbine. Bei dem derart auslaufenden Turbosatz gemäß der Kurve 1 ergeben sich Auslaufzeiten von bis zu einer Stunde.A curve 1 shows a curve of the rotational speed of a turbo set when driving off. To shut down the turbo set, the steam supply to the turbine is reduced and also decoupled the generator from the mains, whereby the generator idles with the shaft line runs. A reduction in the kinetic energy of the turbo set takes place, inter alia, by means of bearing friction losses on the bearings belonging to the steam turbine plant and by means of ventilation losses in the turbine. With the thus expiring turbo set according to the curve 1, flow times of up to one hour result.

Der Turbosatz durchfährt ferner einen kritischen Drehzahlbereich 2, in dem sogenannte Schaufelresonanzen an einer zugehörigen Turbinenbeschaufelung auftreten können. Dabei kommt es zu starken Schwingungen an der Turbinenbeschaufelung und somit zu einem erhöhten Lebensdauerverbrauch. Eine Kurve 3 zeigt die Drehzahl des Turbosatzes bei einer gebremsten Abfahrt gemäß dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren. Dabei wird eine, an dem Rotor angebrachte Erregerwicklung mit einem elektrischen Erregerstrom beaufschlagt, wodurch ein Magnetfeld an dem Rotor erzeugt wird. An der Statorwicklung des Generators wird ein elektrischer Strom induziert, der in einem Teilkurzschlussbetrieb des Generators in eine Verlustwärme gewandelt wird.The turbo set also passes through a critical speed range 2, in which so-called blade resonances can occur at an associated turbine blading. This leads to strong vibrations at the turbine blading and thus to an increased lifetime consumption. A curve 3 shows the speed of the turbo set in a braked downhill according to the inventive method. In this case, an exciter winding attached to the rotor is acted on by an electrical excitation current, whereby a magnetic field is generated on the rotor. At the stator winding of the generator an electrical current is induced, which is converted into a heat loss in a partial short-circuit operation of the generator.

Der Generator wird also erfindungsgemäß als eine zusätzliche Last an dem Turbosatz vorgesehen, der dazu im Teilkurzschluss betrieben wird und dadurch als eine Energiesenke dient. Der Generator erzeugt dabei die Verlustwärme, die mittels eines Erregerstroms des Generators stets so zu dimensionieren ist, dass der Generator keinen Schaden aufgrund von Überhitzung nimmt.The generator is thus provided according to the invention as an additional load on the turbo set, which is operated to the sub-short circuit and thus serves as an energy sink. The generator generates the heat loss, which is always to be dimensioned by means of an excitation current of the generator so that the generator takes no damage due to overheating.

Bei der in Fig. 1 angewandten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird eine Generatorkühlerleistung, aufgetragen über der Zeit als Kurve 4 dargestellt, ermittelt und der Generator derart mit einem Erregerstrom beaufschlagt, dass die entstehende Verlustwärme des Generators stets der Generatorkühlerleistung entspricht. Die Verlustwärme des Generators steht dabei in Zusammenhang mit der Bremsleistung 5 des Generators, die ihrerseits proportional zu dem Erregerstrom ist. Mittels des Erregerstroms wird also die Bremsleistung 5 bzw. die Verlustwärme des Generators bestimmt.At the in Fig. 1 applied embodiment of the method according to the invention, a generator cooling performance, plotted over time as curve 4, determined and the generator so acted upon by an excitation current, that the resulting heat loss of the generator always corresponds to the generator cooling capacity. The heat loss of the generator is related to the braking power of the generator 5, which in turn is proportional to the excitation current. By means of the excitation current so the braking power 5 and the heat loss of the generator is determined.

Somit ist über die gesamte Dauer des Abfahrens eine zusätzliche Last am Turbosatz vorgesehen, der dadurch eine verkürzte Abfahrzeit 6 hat. Von besonderer Bedeutung sind die in der Fig. 1 zu erkennende Zeitspanne 7 für das gebremstes Abfahren, und die Zeitspanne 8 für das ungebremste Abfahren. Es ist deutlich zu erkennen, dass der mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren abgefahrene Turbosatz den kritischen Drehzahlbereich 2 sehr viel zügiger durchfährt, nämlich in der Zeitspanne 7, wodurch mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren eine Lebensdauerverkürzung der Turbinenbeschaufelung reduziert wird.Thus, an additional load on the turbo set is provided over the entire duration of the shutdown, which thereby has a shortened downtime 6. Of particular importance are those in the Fig. 1 to be recognized time period 7 for the braked downhill, and the period 8 for the unrestrained shutdown. It can be clearly seen that the turbine set worn down by the method according to the invention passes through the critical speed range 2 much more quickly, namely in the time span 7, whereby a shortening of the service life of the turbine blading is reduced with the method according to the invention.

In Fig. 2 ist eine Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens anhand von Leistungskurven, aufgetragen über der Zeit, dargestellt, bei der die Generatorbremsleistung 5 die Generatorkühlerleistung 4 kurzzeitig überschreitet, um den Turbosatz beim Durchfahren des kritischen Drehzahlbereichs 2 abzubremsen. Die dabei am Generator entstehende Verlustwärme schädigt diesen dabei nicht, da mittels des Erregerstroms die Verlustwärme entsprechend dimensioniert ist. Auch bei dieser Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ist eine Zeitspanne 9, die für ein gebremstes Abfahren durch den kritischen Drehzahlbereich 2 benötigt wird, deutlich kürzer als eine Zeitspanne 10 für ein ungebremstes Abfahren. Nach dem Durchfahren des kritischen Drehzahlbereichs 2 wird der Erregerstrom des Generators abgeschaltet, wodurch der Generator im Leerlauf mit dem Turbosatz läuft. Somit kann mittels des Generators der Turbosatz abgebremst werden, um den kritischen Drehzahlbereich so zügig wie möglich zu Durchfahren.In Fig. 2 is an embodiment of the method according to the invention by means of power curves, plotted against time, shown, in which the generator braking power 5 the Generator cooler power 4 briefly exceeds, in order to decelerate the turbo set when passing through the critical speed range 2. The resulting heat loss on the generator does not damage this, since by means of the excitation current, the heat loss is dimensioned accordingly. Also in this embodiment of the method according to the invention, a time period 9, which is required for a braked ride through the critical speed range 2, significantly shorter than a period 10 for an unrestrained departure. After passing through the critical speed range 2, the exciter current of the generator is turned off, causing the generator to idle with the turbo set. Thus, by means of the generator, the turbo set can be braked to drive through the critical speed range as quickly as possible.
