Method for starting a steam turbine system
View Patent ↗A method for starting a steam turbine system having a steam generator, a steam turbine which is connected to the steam generator and includes at least two turbine stages that, at the time of starting the steam turbine system, have different outlet temperatures, a condenser connected to the steam turbine and a consumer driven by the steam turbine, in which the steam generated in the steam generator is used to start the steam turbine, wherein, until the steam generated in the steam generator reaches a predetermined temperature that at least corresponds to the temperature requirement of the turbine stage with the higher outlet temperature, only the turbine stage with the lower outlet temperature is operated, and in that the turbine stage with the higher outlet temperature is brought on-line only once the predetermined temperature has been reached.
1. A method for starting up a steam turbine system having a steam generator, a steam turbine that is connected to the steam generator and comprises at least three turbine stages which have different starting temperatures when the steam turbine system is started, the method comprising:
providing a condenser that is connected to the steam turbine;
providing a reheater;
driving a consumer using the steam turbine;
generating steam in the steam generator, and using the generated steam to start the steam turbine , wherein only a turbine stage having a lower starting temperature and a turbine stage having a second lower starting temperature are operated until the steam generated in the steam generator reaches a predetermined temperature which corresponds at least to the temperature requirement of the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature;
starting the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature only once the predetermined temperature has been reached, wherein until the predetermined temperature has been reached, the steam generated in the steam generator is routed through a bypass line to the reheater, such that the reheater heats the steam and provides the heated steam to the turbine stage having the lower starting temperature; and
bypassing the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature using the bypass line, to the turbine stage having the lower starting temperature, and wherein the heated steam provided to the turbine stage having the lower starting temperature is directed to the turbine stage having the second lower temperature.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein until the predetermined temperature has been reached, and in order to reduce the ventilation power, the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature is connected to the condenser such that barrier steam fed into the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature is routed into the condenser, where it is condensed.
3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature is a high-pressure stage.
4. method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the steam turbine system comprises a second steam generator, wherein the second steam generator is connected to the turbine stage having the second lower starting temperature such that steam may issue from the turbine stage having the lower starting temperature stage to the turbine stage having the second lower starting temperature and be mixed with steam generated in the second steam generator.
5. A method for starting up a steam turbine system having a steam generator, a steam turbine that is connected to the steam generator and comprises at least two turbine stages which have different starting temperatures when the steam turbine system is started, the method comprising:
providing a condenser that is connected to the steam turbine;
providing a reheater;
driving a consumer using the steam turbine;
generating steam in the steam generator, and using the generated steam to start the steam turbine , wherein only a turbine stage having a lower starting temperature is operated until the steam generated in the steam generator reaches a predetermined temperature which corresponds at least to the temperature requirement of a turbine stage having a higher starting temperature;
starting the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature only once the predetermined temperature has been reached, wherein until the predetermined temperature has been reached;
wherein until the predetermined temperature has been reached, the steam generated in the steam generator is routed through a bypass line to the reheater, such that the reheater heats the steam and provides the heated steam to the turbine stage having the lower starting temperature;
bypassing the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature using the bypass line, to the turbine stage having the lower starting temperature; and
wherein until the predetermined temperature has been reached, and in order to reduce the ventilation power, the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature is connected to the condenser such that barrier steam fed into the turbine stage having a higher starting temperature is routed directly into the condenser bypassing the turbine stage having the lower starting temperature, where it is condensed.
