metal temp. for a quick start up, by-pass stations have been provided, which dump the steam to the condenser through pressure reducing station and de-super heaters, during the period steam parameters at the boiler are being raised. These stations, in addition to the quick start of turbine and low noise level, also economize the consumption of DM water. ADVANTAGE With the use of turbine by pass station it is possible to buildup the matching steam parameters at the boiler outlet during any regime of starting, independent of the steam flow through turbine, the steam generated by boiler, and not utilized by turbine during startup or shutdown, is conserved with in the power cycle and thus losses of steam into the atm. is cut down to barest minimum. Shorten the start up time HP BY PASS SYSTEM To establish flow at the outlet sh for raising boiler parameters during start-up
To maintain or control steam pressure at per set value in main steam line during start-up
To warm up steam lines
To control steam temp down stream of hp bypass at the preset value
To dump steam from boiler to condenser in case the generator circuit breaker opens LP BY PASS SYSTEM CONTROL OF STEAM PRESSURE AFTER RE-HEATER ESTBALISH FLOW OF STEAM FROM REHEAT LINES TO CONDENSER BY ITS OPENING, PROPORTIONAL TO THE OPENING OF HP BY PASS VALVES RELEASED OF STEAM ENTRAPPED IN HPT AND REHEATER CIRCUIT IN CASE GENERATOR CIRCUIT BREAKER OPENS OIL UNIT SUPPLY THE OIL SUPPLY UNIT FOR HP BYPASS AND THE LP BYPASS ARE CONNECTED IN PARALLEL START UP PROCEDURE OPERATION With the start up of the boiler, the pressure set point has to be adjusted manually. If too large a deviation between the measured pressure and the set-point shall occure, the alarms will be given. Deviation will be given for a positive as wall as a negative difference.
CONTINUE The hp bypass station controls and maintains the upstream pressure at the desired preset value when in operation. As soon as the entire steam available from sh oulet is swallowed by hp turbine, the hp bypass station shall get closed under automatic controller action The hp bypass, once closed shall cut in under pressure impulse only if the generated ckt breaker opens INTERLOCKS GENERATOR CKT BREAKER CONDENSER VACUUM TO LOW HP-VALVE-POSITION(<2%) HP VALVE POSITION <2% When turbine is running or not running and the control of hp bypass valve is on manual, the memory will get closing signal through AND logic , if the valve position is <2%.
When turbine is running and control of hp bypass valve is on auto, the memory will get closing signal through AND logic , if the valve position is <2%
When the turbine is not running and control of hp bypass valve are on auto, there is no closing signal to memory whatever is the position of the valve and thus pressure control loop will actuate valve
