Abstract

PURPOSE:To detect the crack in the dove-tail hook part of a rotor wheel and to shorten an inspection time in a rotor blade implanted state, in the rotor blade insert groove of the rotor wheel, by allowing an ultrasonic wave to be incident to the rotor wheel in the circumferential direction thereof. CONSTITUTION:After the clasp is dissassembled, an ultrasonic probe 8 is contacted with the end surface 6c of the dove-tail hook of a wheel in the rotor blade insert groove 6a of a wheel dove-tail 6 in such a state that the rotor blade 1 was implanted and an ultrasonic wave is allowed to be incident to the wheel in the circumferential direction thereof. The incident wave 10a advances along the surface of the wheel hook 6b, and if a crack is present in the hook 6b, the reflected wave 10b of said incident wave 10a is caught by the probe 8. The incident wave is displayed by a wave form 11a and the reflected wave by a wave form 11b or 11c on the picture of a flaw detection apparatus 9.

A wheel dovetail 6 having a similar shape to the rotor blade dovetail 1a of the rotor blade 1 into which the rotor blade 1 is embedded is formed on the outer peripheral side of the rotor wheel. There are five different shapes for this dovetail, but this figure shows a tree shape (saddle shape).When the rotor rotates with the rotor blades assembled, centrifugal force acts on the rotor blades.This centrifugal force In order to support the moving blades,
The rotor blade has a dovetail hook lb, and the wheel dovetail has a wheel dovetail hook 6b. On the other hand, in order to install the rotor blade 1 into the wheel,
In the wheel dovetail 6, one or two rotor blade insertion grooves 6a without wheel dovetail hooks 6b are provided. The rotor blade 1 is inserted in the circumferential direction sequentially from the rotor blade insertion groove 6a, and finally, the stopper (or stopper blade) 5, which does not have the dovetail hook 1b like the above-mentioned rotor blade, is driven in. , is fixed by several stoppers 4. The several rotor blades are fixed by attaching a shroud ring 3 to the outer peripheral side of the rotor blade 1 and caulking a tenon 2 in order to adjust the frequency and prevent steam leakage. On the other hand, the high-pressure first-stage rotor blades and the intermediate-pressure first-stage rotor blades are under extremely severe temperature and stress conditions compared to other stages, and after being operated for more than 10 years, their material strength deteriorates over time. Moving blade dovetail hook 1b and wheel dovetail hook 6
There is a risk that cracks will occur in b. Figure 7 shows a situation in which a crack 7 has occurred in the dovetail hook 6b of a wheel.The conventional technique for detecting a crack in the dovetail hook 1b of a rotor blade was published by General Technology Sensor in 1983, by K.
“Steam turbine damage cases and countermeasures” in “Plant damage cases and aging deterioration/life prediction method” (January 20, 2017)
Discussed in the literature entitled. In order to detect cracks in the wheel dovetail hook 6b, in the prior art, the wheel dovetail 6 is generally inspected for magnetic particles after the stopper 5 is disassembled and the rotor blade 1 is completely removed. Therefore, it takes a lot of time and effort to remove and reassemble the rotor blade 1. Furthermore, in order to remove the rotor blade, the shroud ring 3 shown in Figure 6 must be removed. Therefore, all the shroud rings 3 must be replaced with new ones. During subsequent reassembly, a large amount of incidental construction costs and sample costs would be incurred, such as the need to drop the shoulders of the moving blades in order to secure the caulking allowance for Tenon 2.
