Performance Acceptance Test for a Non-Condensing Turbine (Enthalpy Drop Method) Generator Drive Superheated Inlet and Exhaust
The following document is a simplified ASME performance test procedure which Dresser-Rand believes is satisfactory for a high percentage of non-condensing turbines. The instrumentation required for this test is much less costly, as compared to a full ASME PTC-6 enthalpy drop acceptance test. In this simplified test, only the quantities...
Steam Turbine Water Washing
This paper discusses about the capability for full speed turbine water washing which has become an increasing requirement, especially on mechanical drive units. Although load carrying capability will be somewhat reduced, essentially the overall plant requirements are maintained. Occasions may arise when deposits form on the internal parts of steam...
Frequency Evaluation of Steam Turbine Bladed Risks
In this paper, Dresser-Rand has initiated the use of the SAFE (Singh's Advanced Frequency Evaluation) diagram to help bladed disk designer. Identification of when the frequency of variable force match component's natural frequencies is the traditional method to design around potential blade failures. The identification of matching frequencies-the force with...
Vectra Power Turbine Design and Development
Dresser-Rand has designed and manufactured phases of the VECTRA development program. The first unit is in the test cell, and the second is being assembled with extensive instrumentation. To complete the planned extensive development test program, a test cell dedicated to testing turbine packages has been constructed. This paper reviews...
Ops Tips - Standard Single-Stage Turbine Lubrication
This paper gives a proper maintenance strategy incorporating reliability concepts. Rotating equipment depends on all parts working properly and correctly. The preventative maintenance should include a schedule of daily visual checks of the oil level and weekly checks of the oil quality. The consequences associated with not performing such maintenance...
