Study on Valve Management of DEH for Steam Turbine

Steam Turbine Steam System

Steam Turbine Configuration

Most electric power is produced by steam turbines. This is because the steam cycle is well suited to the conversion of heat to work and steam turbines can be built in a wide range of capacities up to about 1500 MW. Steam turbines are basically very simple having fixed blades to accelerate the steam and moving blades to absorb the resulting kinetic energy. The moving blades are mounted on a rota...

Numerical Analysis of Unsteady Loads on a Steam Turbine Double Seat Control Valve

The quest for the ever-greater operational flexibility of large-scale steam turbines continues to drive enhanced control valve design. Such components, subjected to large static loads, also may experience strong vibrations due to unsteady turbulent fluctuations downstream of the throttling section. Challenging design efforts are required to ensure that these fluctuations are confined far from s...

a study on thermodynamic models for simulation of 1,3 butadiene purification columns

attempts have been made to study the thermodynamic behavior of 1,3 butadiene purification columns with the aim of retrofitting those columns to more energy efficient separation schemes. 1,3 butadiene is purified in two columns in series through being separated from methyl acetylene and 1,2 butadiene in the first and second column respectively. comparisons have been made among different therm...

Steam turbine model

In order to characterize the transient dynamics of steam turbines subsections, in this paper, nonlinear mathematical models are first developed based on the energy balance, thermodynamic principles and semi-empirical equations. Then, the related parameters of developed models are either determined by empirical relations or they are adjusted by applying genetic algorithms (GA) based on experimen...
