differential expansion is refer to differential distance between rotor blade and fix blade.rotor expand to
ward generator and casing expand toward control valve.when temperature increase ,expansion in casing and rotor.so rotor mass is less than casing which rotor expand more than casing.
What else can I help you with?
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 <<
What is negative differential expansion of steam turbine?
Negative differential expansion in a steam turbine refers to a condition where the thermal expansion of the turbine components is not uniform, causing the rotor and casing to expand at different rates. This can lead to increased stresses and potential misalignment, negatively impacting the turbine's efficiency and longevity. Proper design and operational practices are essential to mitigate these effects and ensure optimal performance.
How do you lower turbine differential expansion?
by controlling main steam flow
What is a steam turbine?
It is an engine.A steam turbine is a heat engine that uses the expansion of steam passing through stationary nozzles and blades on a shaft to turn the shaft. The steam can move through the turbine axially (one end of shaft to the other end), radially (shaft to outer casing), or tangentially (around the outer edges of the turbine wheel). In an impulse turbine, the steam is expanded in nozzles and pushes the blades. In a reaction turbine the steam is expanded in the nozzles AND in the blades, the reaction of the expansion of the steam pushes away from the blades spinning the wheel in the process. The expansion of the steam is necessary to increase its velocity through the turbine.
What engines did the titanic use?
Two triple expansion steam engines and an exhaust turbine
What is HP and LP turbine expansion?
HP Turbine is High Performance Turbine LP Turbine is Low Performance Turbine
Turbine negative expansion and positive expansion?
Negative expansion in a turbine occurs when the turbine suffers from a loss of power output due to factors like fouling or damage. Positive expansion, on the other hand, would refer to the ideal scenario where a turbine operates efficiently and produces the expected power output.
What to do about turbine rotor differential expansion?
my LP turbine differential expansion increase ,when rated gland steam temperature maintain.
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 <<
What is casing expansion of steam turbine?
casing and shaft are made of alloy steel they are supposed to expand when heated (at/2 *length of turbine.).wherea is coefficient expansion of material.t=finaltemperature ( of casing or shat)-ambienttemperaturel=length of turbine in meter
What is negative differential expansion of steam turbine?
Negative differential expansion in a steam turbine refers to a condition where the thermal expansion of the turbine components is not uniform, causing the rotor and casing to expand at different rates. This can lead to increased stresses and potential misalignment, negatively impacting the turbine's efficiency and longevity. Proper design and operational practices are essential to mitigate these effects and ensure optimal performance.
Turbine differential expansion should be positive or negative?
Turbine diff expansion can be positive or negative and depends on the convention used. The usual convention is that positive expansion is rotor expanding faster (hotter) than fixed components. Expansion is dictated by steam flow, gland steam temperatures etc
How do you lower turbine differential expansion?
by controlling main steam flow
Why LP turbine rotor expansion is more than casing?
In a low-pressure (LP) turbine, the rotor expansion is greater than the casing due to the design and operational conditions of the turbine. The rotor experiences a significant drop in pressure and temperature as steam expands through the turbine stages, resulting in a larger volumetric increase compared to the casing, which is designed to contain the steam flow with minimal expansion. This difference allows for efficient energy extraction from the steam, optimizing the turbine's performance while maintaining structural integrity in the casing. Overall, the rotor's greater expansion accommodates the dynamic changes in steam properties as it moves through the turbine system.
Why LP turbine diaphragm breaks?
Lp turbine diaphragm breaks due to positive pressure inside the condenser because of steam expansion.
