Abstract

1,074,947. Starting-up steam generators. COMBUSTION ENGINEERING Inc. July 1, 1964 [Aug. 8, 1963], No. 27244/64. Heading F4A. [Also in Division F1] In a power plant comprising a main vapour generator 20 feeding a multi-stage turbine 26, 38, 40 driving an electric generator, with reheating between at least some of the turbine stages, at peak outputs, an auxiliary vapour generator 84 is brought into operation to feed vapour to one of the later turbine stages. The auxiliary generator 84 may be that normally used in starting up the plant. The main generator has primary and secondary heaters 44, 50, which at starting can be isolated by a valve 52 so that steam from heater 44 passes to a flash tank 58 which, when operative, supplies steam to drive the feed pump turbine 14 and to operate deserator 10. Until tank 58 is fully operative, steam is supplied thereto by generator 84 which also supplies steam through pipe 78 to cool the section 50 and set the turbines rolling. After the start-up phase, valve 52 is opened so that steam from heater 44 flows through the secondary heater 50 and is fed to the highpressure turbine 26, from which it flows through a reheater 34 to the intermediate-pressure and low-pressure turbines 38, 40. At peak loads, auxiliary generator 84 is fired to deliver steam through valve 90 to a point upstream of the reheater 34. In a modification, Fig. 2 (not shown), the main generator delivers to a superpressure turbine stage (27) upstream of the remaining turbine stages (91), (39), (41), and the auxiliary generator delivers through line 88 either downwstream of the H.P. turbine (91) or immediately downstream of the superpressure turbine (27).
