Thrust bearings are mounted on turbines at or near the end of the shaft, closest to the steam chest (or inlet). This is to maintain the shaft in position with the casing of the turbine, allowing the casing and the shaft to expand evenly together toward the drive end of the turbine.
What else can I help you with?
What is turbine thrust bearing active and inactive temperature?
Turbine thrust bearing active and inactive temperature is the blade in the turbine trust bearing is actual temperature change, which mitigates the active or inactive bearing.
What are the types of bearings used in a steam turbine?
main two type of bearing used in steam turbine:(1)thrust bearing (2)general bearing
What is balance piston line of Turbine?
it is used balance axial thrust on turbine rotor due to admitting of high pressure steam in to turbine. it basic purpose is to save thrust bearing.
Where thrust bearing located in steam turbine?
The thrust pads will be there at the front or non drive end of the turbine side....These are usually used to limit the axial displacement of the rotor( Means to minimize the movement of rotor axially in order to maintain the axial clearance between the moving blades and the fixed blades of steam turbine rotor).....
Where is thrust bearing located and why?
A thrust bearing is located as one of the main bearings on the crankshaft. It maintains crankshaft end play.
What is use of thrust pad in steam turbine?
Thrust pads are used to protect the steam turbine rotor from damage due to axial displacement due to axial thrust created by entry of steam in the turbine. generaly the pads clearence is 0.45mm for a bearing size 250mm.
What is absolute expansion of steam turbine?
it's the thermal expansion in the casing of hp or ip turbine can be noticed by journal or thrust bearing when moving <<
Show where thrust bearing is located?
The thrust bearing is located in the crankshaft journal. usually in the center main cap. Although sometimes toward the front or rear it is recognizable, the only main bearing with sides.
What journal is the location of the thrust bearing in a 1993 ford 5.0 engine?
thrust bearing is located on the transmission shaft in the bell housing,sometimes called a throw out bearing. its use is to operate the clutch
Can Steam Turbine Thrust Bearing temperature protection device be considered a similar protection for the Steam Turbine Rotor Position protection device?
No these are two different sensors. The thrust bearing temperature trip device measures either the metal temperature of the bearing, or the oil temperature exiting the bearing, or both. If this temperature exceeds recommended temperatures by 10 to 15% the turbine will trip to avoid damaging the bearings or shaft. The rotor position sensor is a proximity cell that monitors the axial position of the turbine rotor, often there is four such sensors mounted at the end of the rotor, if the distance between the sensors and the rotors exceeds a specific distance ( often 15-30 mils) the sensors indicate a failure, if two or three sensors indicate failure the turbine will trip.
How many types of Bearings?
there are many types of bearings .... 1)ball bearing 2)roller bearing 3)ball thrust bearing 4)roller thrust bearing & 5)tapered roller thrust..
What provides thrust for airplanes?
An engine driving a propeller or a turbine causes thrust.
