  • Period (2) If the high-pressure steam pressure rises to a set pressure of the dump valve 41, the dump valve 41 is opened, and the opening degree of the dump valve 41 is controlled so that the high-pressure steam pressure becomes a predetermined pressure according to increase of the flow rate of steam.
  • Period (3) An operation of the steam turbine 9 is started. Further, according to increase of the opening degree of the governor valve 37 or according to increase of load, the steam is introduced to the steam turbine 9. Accordingly, the opening degree of the dump valve 41 decreases, and then, the dump valve 41 is fully closed.

  • Period (5) While the opening degree of the governor valve is being increased to become a target opening degree, if the high-pressure steam pressure decreases to reach the set minimum value, the opening degree of the governor valve is controlled to maintain the set minimum value. Further, as the flow rate of steam increases, the opening degree of the governor valve increases while maintaining the set minimum value.
  • the TCP 57 stops the increase of the available power value up to then, and adjusts the available power value to maintain the set minimum value.

  • the control for maintaining the opening degree of the governor valve at the target opening degree is temporarily stopped, but strictly speaking, since if the flow rate of steam increases in this state, the rotation speed of the steam turbine 9 increases, the governor 59 is operated to reduce the flow rate of steam to be introduced to the steam turbine 9, and thus, the opening degree of the governor valve decreases. Further, the TCP 57 increases the available power value in order to further maintain the opening degree of the governor valve at the target opening degree, and the load increases according to a governor increase command of the PMS 53. In this way, even after reaching the target opening degree of the governor valve 37, according to the increase of the flow rate of steam, the available power value increases while repeating the control for maintaining the opening degree of the governor valve at the target opening degree, and the load of the steam turbine 9 increases.

If the opening degree of the governor valve decreases to be smaller than the target opening degree, the TCP 57 increases the available power value (STG Avail. kW) of the turbine generator 25 to return the opening degree of the governor valve to the target opening degree. In addition, the governor increase command is received from the PMS 53, and thus, the opening degree of the governor valve increases toward the target opening degree. In this way, in the period (8), the opening degree of the governor valve maintains the target opening degree while repeating slight increase or decrease.
  • Period (11) According to the increase of the output of the power turbine 7 due to the decrease of the load of the main engine 3, and according to the decrease of the flow rate of steam, until a governor decrease command is received from the PMS 53, the opening degree of the governor valve increases to compensate for speed reduction of the steam turbine 9.

Further, the governor decrease command is received from the PMS 53, and thus, the opening degree of the governor valve decreases toward the target opening degree. In this way, in the period (11), the opening degree of the governor valve maintains the target opening degree while repeating slight increase or decrease.
  • Period (12) The power turbine 7 is stopped. Generally, the power turbine 7 is stopped due to reduction of an extraction gas allowance due to reduction of the load of the main engine 3.
  • the opening degree of the governor valve also transiently changes according to reduction of the output of the power turbine 7 and the stop thereof, but since the available power value is controlled so that the change does not become large, the change is not shown in the figure.
  • Period (13) According to the reduction of the flow rate of steam due to further reduction of the load of the main engine 3, the opening degree of the governor valve is maintained at the target opening degree, and the high-pressure steam pressure decreases to the set minimum value. Then, since the available power value is reduced to maintain the set minimum value of the high-pressure steam pressure, the opening degree of the governor valve decreases.
  • Period (14) If the available power value reaches a predetermined minimum value, the available power value does not decrease any more, and the PMS 53 gives a command (for example, an increase command) to the governor 59 to secure a load of the minimum value, and thus, the high-pressure steam pressure begins to decrease to become smaller than the set minimum value.
