About this Training Course
This seminar provides detailed description of all steam turbine governing systems including multi-valve governing system, mechanical governor, electrohydraulic systems for all steam turbine valves, double-relay pilot valves, instrumentation and control systems of all steam turbine valves, speeder gear, hydraulic governor, electrohydraulic governor, operation during partial-load rejection and full-load rejection, quick closing non-return valves, isochronous and droop control modes, unit loading using droop control mode, case studies of isochronous and droop control modes, effects of variation of droop setting, turbine runback, adjustment of droop setting, overspeed limiting facilities, HP governing operating regime, spinning spare capability, HP plus IP governing, improvement in spinning spare capability, governor subsidiary functions, acceleration feedback, unloading gear, unloading due to an increase in condenser shell side pressure, unloading due to decrease in boiler pressure, steam turbine pressure control mechanisms including turbine follow, boiler follow and coordinated control modes, feedforward control systems, Campbell, Goodman and SAFE diagrams, Blade failures: causes and solutions, maintenance and overhaul of steam turbines.
The main focus of this seminar is on the steam turbine governing systems, electrohydraulic control (EHC) systems for steam turbine valves, governor subsidiary functions, maintenance, refurbishment and overhaul.
This seminar provides up-dated information in respect to all the instrumentation and control systems used with steam turbines, and methods used to increase the efficiency and longevity of steam turbines. This seminar will also cover in detail all steam turbine valves, jacking oil system, turning gear, turbine supervisory system, steam turbine monitoring technology, validation, and verification tests, performance testing of steam turbines and steam turbine codes especially ASME PTC6.
In summary, the course will be addressing the following aspects:
- Comprehensively analyze steam turbine control mechanisms
- Develop advanced predictive and preventive maintenance strategies
- Optimize turbine performance and reliability
- Understand and apply the latest industry standards and technologies
