Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for operating a power plant comprising a steam turbine, which is subdivided into a high-pressure turbine section, medium-pressure turbine section and low ⁇ pressure turbine section and between the high-pressure turbine section and the intermediate-pressure turbine section an intermediate ⁇ superheater unit is arranged.
- the invention relates to a power plant which is operated by the method according to the invention.
- Power plants in which large-volume steam turbines are used, u.a. used in the municipal energy supply.
- the steam turbines used in such power plants have relatively high masses and are usually designed for a given nominal power.
- Power plants which can also be referred to as conventional power plants, can be classified as a first approximation in pure steam power plants and in gas and steam power plants.
- ⁇ that have in common that fossil fuels are needed to generate electrical energy.
- Such power plants have so far been designed such that they were placed for a base load of ⁇ .
- the reheater heating surfaces were oversized and the hot reheater superheat temperature in the upper load range, for example, between 70% and 100% / g ⁇ regulated at the expense of the resulting thermodynamic loss of efficiency.
- a hot reheat refers to the hot reheat temperature that is present after the intermediate superheater unit.
- Another approach is to limit the lower load range, the load gradient accordingly or redu the allowable load cycles ⁇ decorate, whereby an increased wear ge into consideration ⁇ is attracted so that the thick-walled components have to be replaced at an early stage from ⁇ . at this point the invention comes in. It is an object of the invention to operate the plant such that the
- a method for Be ⁇ drive a power plant comprising a steam turbine, which is divided into a high-pressure turbine section, medium-pressure turbine section and low-pressure turbine section and between the high-pressure turbine section and the intermediate-pressure turbine section, a reheater unit is arranged with the steps: - Operation of the power plant in part load,
- a power plant which is operated by a method according to one of claims 1 to 4 and further by a power plant, which is designed as a steam power plant or as a gas and steam power plant and operated by the method according to the invention.
- the invention is based on the idea that a frequent load change can still take place, but does not lead to a reduction in the service life of the components.
- the invention is based on the idea that the number of permissible load changes is generally not proportional to the temperature jump at the same temperature gradient. For example, a temperature jump of 30 Kelvin leads to about 1,000,000 permissible load changes, whereas a temperature jump of 60 Kelvin does not lead to a halving of the permissible load changes, but to a much smaller number of load changes, namely about 10,000 permissible load changes. Thus, when the temperature jump is doubled, the number of permissible load changes changes by one or more orders of magnitude.
- the above values are for illustrative purposes only.
- the number of permissible load changes as a function of the temperature jump strongly depend on the geometries of the components, on the material properties as well as on temperature levels and many other parameters.
- An essential feature of the invention is that the temperature of the reheater unit can be reduced by the inlet temperature is lifted in the reheater unit ⁇ .
- the inlet temperature upstream of the reheater unit is also known as cold reheat records.
- This increase in temperature is realized in that control valves, the section before the second Expansionsab ⁇ , that are throttled before the medium-pressure turbine section.
- the throttling reduces the expansion and thus the temperature reduction in the first expansion section, in this case in the high-pressure turbine section.
- the result is that there is an increase in load-dependent temperature fluctuations at the outlet of the high-pressure turbine section.
- the waste entering at partial load becomes hot
- the throttling is chosen such that the amount of temperature reduction after the reheater unit in the unthrottled state is substantially halved.
- the throttling is controlled such that at load ⁇ change on all components, the then smaller temperature changes are equal in first approximation.
- An essential Advantage of the invention is that now large load changes can be driven with significantly faster gradients and much more often in the life of the steam turbine. Overall, this leads to an increase in the service life.
- Conventional conventional power plants include a steam ⁇ turbine, a can be divided between ⁇ superheating unit in a high-pressure turbine, intermediate pressure turbine and low-pressure turbine, and wherein the insects enjoyed ⁇ zerauer between the high-pressure part turbine and the medium-pressure turbine section arranged becomes.
- a steam generator In front of the high-pressure Operatur ⁇ bine a steam generator generates a hot steam fresh, which flows through the high-pressure turbine section and is then reheated in the reheater unit and then flows into ⁇ closing in the medium-pressure turbine section and then by the low-pressure turbine section.
