Definitions
- the present invention relates to a steam turbine and a method of adjusting a thrust force of the steam turbine, particularly regarding a steam turbine and a method of adjusting a thrust force of the steam turbine which are capable of balancing of a thrust force acting on a rotor shaft of the steam turbine which includes at least a high-pressure (HP) blade cascade, an intermediate-pressure (IP) blade cascade and a plurality of dummy members that are attached to a common rotor shaft.
- HP high-pressure
- IP intermediate-pressure
- the steam turbine Since the rotor shaft is subjected to the thrust force acting thereon, the steam turbine is provided with a thrust bearing. With a limited load capacity of the bearing, it is necessary to design the steam turbine in consideration of a thrust balance so that the thrust force acting on the rotor shaft does not exceed the load capacity of the bearing under any operating condition.
- the dummy members (dummy pistons) and the blade cascades are attached to the same rotor shaft, so as thrust forces in a counter-thrust direction are generated by the dummy members to balance the forces acting in an axial direction of the entire rotor shaft.
- the thrust force acting on the rotor shaft is kept within the scope of the load capacity of the bearing under any operation condition.
- FIG. 13 shows an outline view regarding a conventional steam turbine under a normal operating condition, the conventional steam turbine being provided with dummy members for adjusting the thrust forces.
- a turbine casing (not shown) is formed around a rotor shaft 10.
- the turbine casing includes an inlet part (not shown) for introducing high-pressure (HP) main steam 22, an inlet part (not shown) for introducing reheat steam 24 and an inlet part (not shown) for introducing low-pressure (LP) main steam 26.
- HP high-pressure
- LP low-pressure
- a HP blade cascade 2 to which the HP main steam is supplied, an IP blade cascade 4 to which the reheat steam 24 is supplied and a low-pressure (LP) blade cascade 6 to which the LP main steam 26 is supplied are attached to the rotor shaft 10 in this order.
- the IP blade cascade 4 and the LP blade cascade 6 have steam inlets that are open to one side, whereas the HP blade cascade 2 has a steam inlet is open to other side being opposite to the one side.
- a high-pressure (HP) dummy member 12 is provided between the steam inlet of the HP blade cascade 2 and the steam inlet of the IP blade cascade 4.
- an intermediate-pressure (IP) dummy member 14 and a low-pressure (LP) dummy member 16 are provided in this order. Further, a thrust balance conduit 30 is provided so as to communicate the outlet side of the IP dummy member 14 to a latter half of the IP blade cascade 4.
- the HP main steam 22 from a boiler and the like enters the HP blade cascade 2. And, the HP main steam 22 gives a rotary force to the rotor shaft 10 while the steam passes through the HP blade cascade 2.
- the steam that has done the work through the HP blade cascade 2 drops the pressure and the temperature gradually and is discharged out of the steam turbine I as a low-temperature reheat steam 28.
- the low-temperature reheat steam 28 discharged out of the steam turbine 1 is reheated by a reheat boiler (not shown) to be the reheat steam 24.
- the IP reheat steam 24 that is reheated by the reheat boiler gives the rotary force to the rotor shaft 10 and gradually reduces the pressure and the temperature while the reheat steam 24 passes through the IP blade cascade 4.
- the LP main steam 26 gives the rotary force to the rotor shaft 10 and gradually reduces the pressure and the temperature while the LP main steam 26 passes through the LP blade cascade 6.
- a part of the high-pressure (HP) main steam 22 passes by the high-pressure (HP) dummy member 12 and a part of the low-temperature reheat steam 28 that has passed through the HP blade cascade and has reduced the temperature and the pressure, passes by the intermediate- pressure (IP) dummy member 14 and the low-pressure (LP) dummy member 16.
- HP high-pressure
- IP intermediate- pressure
- LP low-pressure

- the thrust force acting on each of the blade cascades can be computed based on the gas pressure force working on each blade cascade and the thrust force acting on each of the dummy members can be computed based on a pressure difference between both sides of each dummy member and a cross-sectional area of each dummy member.
- the dummy members 12, 14 and 16, and the thrust balance conduit 30 are provided so as to balance the thrust forces by the steam pressure.
- the thrust force acting on the HP dummy member 12 roughly serves as a counterbalance to the thrust force acting on the HP blade cascade 2
- the thrust acting on the IP dummy member 14 roughly serving as a counterbalance to the thrust force acting on the IP blade cascade 4
- the thrust force acting on the LP dummy member 16 roughly serving as a counterbalance to the thrust force acting on the LP blade cascade 6.

- the thrust force represented by the encircled numeral 5 becomes approximately 0.

- the thrust force acting in the direction of the HP dummy member (rightward in FIG. 15 ) increase.
- the increase of the thrust force generated in the IP system is greater than the increase of the thrust force generated in the HP system.
- the resultant thrust force generated in the whole steam turbine I increases in the leftward direction in FIG. 15 .
- the resultant thrust force acting on the whole steam turbine is not balanced.
- the HP dummy member 12 is upsized so that thrust force in the rightward direction increases and the resultant thrust force is balanced.
