The extent and number of such thermal stresses is largely depending on the capability, of both plant and operators, to smooth the variations in steam temperature and load resulting from both weather conditions (in CSPs) and grid demand. In this operating scenario, conservative simplified rules are normally applied to determine daily warm-up times duration at starts, to preserve critical components from Low Cycle Fatigue damage; the planned maintenance intervals, as well, have been typically defined on the basis of a specified number of starts and running hours.\u0000 In this article, the application of an online Rotor Stress Monitoring (RSM) technology, installed in the Steam Turbine User Control Panel, is used to directly determine the fatigue damage cumulated by each Start-Up and variation in operating condition. The results of application of this technology, with respect to standard formulations, are shown for a specific Concentrated Solar Plant across an operating period of four years.

Three pitch values (P = 0.151, 0.251, and 0.351 m), as well as three different numbers of blades (N = 2, 3, and 4 blades), were studied, leading to a total of 9 different inducer geometries. The main objective of the present study is to analyze and compare the corresponding performances and the two-phase mixing behavior, which is necessary for improving the two-phase pumping ability. 3D steady-state simulations using the Moving Reference Frame (MRF) approach were applied for single-phase flow, while a transient setup using a moving-mesh approach was employed for two-phase simulations. Turbulence was modeled by the Reynolds Stress Model (RSM), whereas the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method was applied to model air-water interactions. The results show that the increase in the number of blades leads to a high performance drop at overload (high-flow) conditions, but only to a slight performance enhancement at part-load (low-flow) conditions. Additionally, the effective flow range of the inducer corresponding to high efficiency becomes narrower for a higher number of blades. Concerning the inducer pitch, at part-load conditions, a lower pitch is slightly beneficial to smoothly suck the flow and damp the low-flow vortices; employing a high pitch at these conditions results in intensified flow vortices, reducing slightly the performance. On the other hand, the blade pitch is very influential for the performance at optimal and overload conditions, where a lower pitch causes flow blockage, leading to significant performance deterioration and a very limited range of applications. Generally, it was found that a modification of the inducer configuration affects the performance much more at overload compared to part-load conditions. Concerning two-phase mixing performance, the highest pitch provides the best mixing since the inducer is able to effectively churn the two phases. Similarly, an increase in the number of blades amplifies the turbulence between the two phases, thus improving mixing. Overall, a higher inducer pitch and a low to moderate number of inducer blades best ensure high performance, wide working range, and efficient two-phase mixing.","PeriodicalId":171265,"journal":{"name":"Volume 9: Oil and Gas Applications; Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems; Steam Turbine","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128327699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One key aspect of this technology is an efficient and economical operation at part load, typically realized by a partial admission control, which is challenging to predict numerically. Full annulus computation can only be avoided applying empirical partial admission loss models to conventional full-admission computations.\u0000 This article aims at assessing the reliability of such a loss model under real-gas and supersonic conditions as a first step towards knowledge-based improved loss models.\u0000 Three different operating points of an 18.3 kW ORC turbine working with an ethanol-water mixture with two open stator passages (2 × 36°) are considered. Full annulus CFD computations are compared to experimental data and results of simulations in a conventional, full admission, periodic 72°-sector model with application of a 1D partial admission loss model. The experimentally obtained mass flow rate and efficiency are matched overall within their measurements accuracy. By highest inlet total pressure, the computed efficiency deviates about 4 % from the experiments. Predictions of efficiency based on the full admission and loss model correction deviate from full annulus computations less than 1 %. These findings suggest that the used empirical correlations for partial admission losses can provide acceptable results in the configuration under investigation.","PeriodicalId":171265,"journal":{"name":"Volume 9: Oil and Gas Applications; Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems; Steam Turbine","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129918178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has long been a goal to detect blade cracks by assessing the change in a measured vibration frequency of the blade over time. It has been found that prior frequency assessment methods can be less accurate than is desirable to reliably detect the relatively small frequency changes that are typically associated with blade crack sizes of practical interest.\u0000 This paper describes a method in which potential temporal changes in the frequencies of individual blades are assessed by periodically analyzing complete rows of blades using mistuning analysis techniques that treat the blade rows as coupled systems, in contrast to other techniques that consider each blade individually in turn. This method, while computationally complicated and challenging, has been found to be capable of detecting blade root cracks that are much smaller than those that can be detected using other techniques. Moreover, this method has been demonstrated to detect cracks that are much smaller than the critical size for mechanical separation of the blade from the rotor.\u0000 This improved frequency assessment technique has been used to identify more than 30 blades with frequency changes that were considered to be potential indicators of blade cracks. Subsequent inspections verified indications in all of those blades.\u0000 In addition to providing operational guidance, the frequency change data were used to infer the time periods during which crack growth had occurred.","PeriodicalId":171265,"journal":{"name":"Volume 9: Oil and Gas Applications; Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems; Steam Turbine","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122040189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is often referred to as ‘wake chopping’, and its effect on the condensation process is the subject of this paper. The practical significance is that thermodynamic ‘wetness losses’ (which constitute a major fraction of the overall loss) are strongly affected by droplet size. Likewise, droplet deposition and the various ensuing two-phase phenomena (such as film migration and coarse-water formation) also depend on the spectrum of droplet sizes in the primary fog.\u0000 The majority of wake-chopping models presented in the literature adopt a stochastic approach, whereby large numbers of fluid particles are tracked through (some representation of) the turbine flowfield, assigning a random number at each successive blade row to represent the particle’s pitchwise location, and hence its level of dissipation. This study contributes to the existing literature by adding: (a) a comprehensive study of the sensitivity to key model parameters (e.g., blade wake shape and wake decay rate); (b) an assessment of the impact of circumferential pressure variations; (c) a study of the implications for wetness losses and (d) a study of the implications for deposition rates.","PeriodicalId":171265,"journal":{"name":"Volume 9: Oil and Gas Applications; Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems; Steam Turbine","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129427019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, the optimization of start-up time, largely driven by initial components temperature, has become a key performance indicator for the profitability of such plants.\u0000 The case study presented in this paper deals with a steam turbine in a combined cycle power plant, commissioned on the early 2000s. The turbine is currently operating daily for half of the year and occasionally for the other half, collecting about 150 warm and 30 cold starts per year.\u0000 The application to the steam turbine of a Thermal Warming System (TWS) is analyzed in detail by assessing casing and rotor temperature distribution, in transient operation. The control algorithms, that allows maximizing the system effectiveness while safeguarding against possible issues due to uneven temperature distributions, are also discussed.

The burners for using hydrogen in the SGT-600 have been developed for and by Additive Manufacturing technology. The advantages of this technology have been integrated into the presented design and therefore allowing:\u0000 • Rapid prototyping with possibilities for fast turnaround of tests and screening of various concepts\u0000 • Manufacturing of complex geometries with smart gas passages, very innovative cooling and mixing concepts\u0000 • Small series and minimum waste with reduced cost\u0000 • Good repeatability and stability of product quality\u0000 Burner development was carried out according to “the standard method within the industry”, meaning CFD-analysis, atmospheric single burner combustion testing followed by pressurized single burner combustion testing and finally a full-scale machine test at the SIEMENS Industrial Turbomachinery AB (SIT) test rig facility in Sweden. The rig is used for full scale testing of gas turbines in the power output range from 15MW to 62MW. It allows testing not only with standard natural gas but also gas mixtures with e.g. hydrogen or nitrogen can be run. The test facility has liquid fuel capability.\u0000 During the burner development process, a project including two SGT-600 running on up to 60 volume % hydrogen was awarded to Siemens. This meant that a very definite target for the development was set and the results of these efforts are presented in this paper.\u0000 An adapted 3rd gen. DLE burner design proved to be capable of using 100% hydrogen at SGT-600 full load conditions at the single burner high pressure tests giving only 35 ppm NOx@15%O2.

At lower loads higher hydrogen contents were tested (95 vol-%) but the flow capacity of the fuel system limited the full exploration of hydrogen capability of the SGT-600 3rd gen.

Consequently, the number of startups and shutdowns grows, causing high thermal stresses in the thick-walled components and thus reduces lifetime and increases product costs. To fulfill the lifetime requirements, an accurate prediction and determination of the metal temperature distribution inside these components is crucial. Therefore, boundary conditions in terms of local fluid temperatures as well as heat transfer coefficients with sufficient accuracy are required. As modern numerical modeling approaches, like 3D-Conjugate-Heat-Transfer (CHT), provide these thermal conditions with a huge calculation expense for multistage turbines, simplified methods are inevitable. Analytical heat transfer correlations are thus the state-of-the-art approach to capture the heat transport phenomena and to optimize and design high efficient startup curves for flexible power market.\u0000 The objective of this paper is to understand the predominant basic heat transfer mechanisms such as conduction, convection and radiation during a startup of an IP steam turbine stage. Convective heat transport is described by means of heat transfer coefficients as a function of the most relevant dimensionless, aero-thermal operating parameters, considering predominant flow structures. Based on steady-state and transient CHT-simulations the heat transfer coefficients are derived during startup procedure and compared to analytical correlations from the literature, which allow the calculation of the heat exchange for a whole multistage in an economic and time-saving way.\u0000 The simulations point out that the local convective heat transfer coefficient generally increases with increasing axial and circumferential Reynolds’ number and is mostly influenced by vortex systems such as passage and horseshoe vortices. The heat transfer coefficients at vane, blade, hub and labyrinth-sealing surfaces can be modeled with a high accuracy using a linear relation with respect to the total Reynolds’ number. The comparison illustrates that the analytical correlations underestimate the convective heat transfer by approx. 40% on average. Results show that special correlation-based approaches from the literature are a particularly suitable and efficient procedure to predict the heat transfer within steam turbines in the thermal design process. Overall, the computational effort can be significantly reduced by applying analytical correlations while maintaining a satisfactory accuracy.","PeriodicalId":171265,"journal":{"name":"Volume 9: Oil and Gas Applications; Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems; Steam Turbine","volume":"124 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128135543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This situation leads to steam turbines running at very low volume flow (LVF) for an extended time. Ventilation power and temperature predictions have a significant impact on the thermo-economic optimization of the power plant and lifetime assessment of the ventilating stages.\u0000 In the last decade with increasing capabilities of CFD and computational resources, significant steps have been made in assessing complex flow behavior. Full size or scaled experimental testing of different last stage blades for a wide range of low load operating conditions is expensive, therefore CFD provides new opportunities in low load assessment. However, prediction of the flow structure of the ventilating stages still represents a challenge for the current CFD tools in terms of calculation time and reliability of the results. There are many different approaches in assessing this phenomenon, which require different computer resources and may not be necessary for most industrial applications.\u0000 This paper presents the validation of the multiple mixing plane approach (MMP) presented by [9] for low-pressure steam turbine running at low load.
