1. Turn Electronic Governor Switch on.
2. Open casing drain valves
3. Check bearing oil levels
4. Reset Over-speed Trip
5. Put bearing cooling water on
6. Crack exhaust (outlet steam header) and adjust drain valves accordingly
7. When warm crack inlet steam valve allowing turbine to run at 10rpm
8. Check bearing oil rings
9. Look for carbine seal run offs
10. When turbine is warm fully open inlet steam valve and allow governor to take control to 2200rpm
11. Use speed knob to raise speed to 3600rpm
12. Turn Field Excitation Switch on
13. Check incoming and grid voltages and match turbine generator excitation to grids voltage using the field excitation rheostat.
14. Use speed knob to reach 60hz
15. Turn on synchronization switch to the synchroscope
16. Adjust turbine speed to adjust the phase angle/frequency to a steady slow clockwise rotation on the synchroscope.
17. Close generator breaker at the 5min to 12'oclock position on the synchroscope.
18.Turn of the synchronization switch to the synchroscope.
The turbine is now synchronized to the 60Hz power grid.

What is the purpose of boiler drum?
Purpose of the boiler drum is to collect steam from all the various tubes in a boiler, and send it to the turbine to spin the generator
What is Steam turbine T S I system?
The TSI system is Turbine Supervisory Instrumentation system, consists of multiple instruments, including speed sensors, speed monitors and so on. The system continuously monitors the steam turbines of all important parameters, such as: rotational speed, overspeed protection, eccentricity, shaft vibration, cover vibration, axial displacement, differential expansion, and thermal expansion. The system helps to improve the availability of steam turbine unit.
How much does a 30MW condensing steam turbine cost?
Depends on the features (extractions, blade rows, inlet temperature/pressure...), but maybe around $2 million or so.
What is a steam turbine jacking oil system?
at the time of turbine start up, the shaft journals are in contact with the white metal of the bearings due to the weight of the rotor. The low pressure of the lubricating oil supply when the set is stationary is insufficient to stop the metal to metal contact between journals and bearing shells. In order to prevent the metal to metal contact between journal and bearing shell during start up, which is damaging in the long term, an oil pocket machined into the bottom shell of the journal bearing is supplied with oil under high pressure. This lifts the shafting system slightly and it floats on a film oil. this is called jacking oil system of turbine
What is the purpose of steam powered factories?
a steam powerd foctorie does not create any green house gases and there for is very economic. but there is a down side to run a steam powerd factorie you will need A LOT of steam.
What is the relationship turbine and generator?
steam powers a turbine which drives a generator to produce electrical power
What is STG power plant?
STG stands for Steam turbine generator. It is a type of power plant that generates electricity by using steam to drive a turbine connected to a generator. The turbine converts the thermal energy in the steam into mechanical energy, which is then converted into electrical energy by the generator.
How does a steam generator produce energy?
You say a steam generator. The equipment is actually a steam driven turbine coupled to a generator. Steam from the thermal source, either fossil fired or nuclear, drives the turbine which is mechanically coupled to the generator which produces the electrical output
What is the steam of a power plant use for?
To drive a steam turbine which is coupled to an electrical generator
What is the relationship between turbine and the generator?
They are used together to make hydroelectricity.
How does steam turbine works?
Steam or water, it works the reverse of a fan, where the fan pushes air down, the turbine is turned by the steam or water. there's a shaft leading from the turbine to the generator, which produces the electricity
How TO generate electricity from steam?
To generate electricity from steam, a steam turbine is typically used. High-pressure steam is directed onto the turbine blades, causing the turbine to spin. The spinning turbine is connected to a generator, which converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy.
What forces will turn a turbine of a generator?
Steam, water, or wind can apply force to turn the turbine of a generator. The turbine converts the kinetic energy from these sources into mechanical energy, which in turn drives the generator to produce electricity.
How do you power generator to create electricity?
The nuclear reactor produces heat which is used to raise steam to feed a steam turbine/generator set
What source of energy is used to make a large generator turn?
It is usually a steam turbine that powers a large generator, in which case it is the mechanical force caused by high pressure steam impinging on the turbine blades.
What is a set of steam-powered fan blades that spins a generator at a power plant?
A set of steam-powered fan blades that spins a generator at a power plant is called a turbine. The steam produced by boiling water is used to drive the turbine blades, converting the thermal energy into mechanical energy to rotate the generator and produce electricity.
What do nuclear power plants use to turn a turbine that is used to rotate the generator?
Nuclear power plants use steam to turn a turbine that is connected to a generator. The steam is produced by heat generated from the nuclear fission process within the reactor. As the steam passes through the turbine, it causes the blades to spin, which in turn rotates the generator to produce electricity.
