Turbine with quick-closing valves and regulating valves
View Patent ↗Provided is a turbine having a turbine regulating unit, a turbine protection unit, at least one safety block, quick-closing valves and regulating valves, wherein the quick-closing valves and the regulating valves can be actuated by associated switching and setting drives, wherein the at least one safety block is a pneumatic safety block, and in that at least one switching drive for direct or indirect actuation of a quick-closing valve is a pneumatic switching drive. The embodiment also relates to a method for retrofitting an existing turbine having a turbine protection unit, a turbine regulating unit, a hydraulic safety clock, quick-closing valves and regulating valves, wherein the quick-closing valves can be actuated directly or indirectly by associated hydraulic switching drives.
1. A turbine having at least one safety block, quick-closing valves and regulating valves, wherein the quick-closing valves and the regulating valves are able to be actuated via assigned switching and actuating drives,
wherein
the at least one safety block is a pneumatic safety block, and in that at least one of the switching drives for directly or indirectly actuating at least one of the quick-closing valves is a pneumatic switching drive.
2. The turbine as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
all the switching drives for actuating the quick-closing valves are pneumatic switching drives.
3. The turbine as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the at least one pneumatic safety block is configured to control the pneumatic switching drive or the pneumatic switching drives.
4. The turbine as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the pneumatic safety block has a plurality of 5/2 directional valves connected in series.
5. The turbine as claimed in claim 4 ,
wherein
the plurality of 5/2 directional valves connected in series is three 5/2 directional valves connected in series in a 2-of-3 circuit.
6. The turbine as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein,
electrical actuating drives and/or hydraulic actuating drives with autonomous oil supply, are provided for actuating the regulating valves.
7. The turbine as claimed in claim 6 ,
wherein,
the electrical actuating drives and/or the hydraulic actuating drives with the autonomous oil supply, are operated with a liquid of low flammability, are provided for actuating the regulating valves.
8. A method for retrofitting an existing turbine
having a hydraulic safety block, quick-closing valves and regulating valves,
wherein the quick-closing valves are able to be actuated directly or indirectly via assigned hydraulic switching drives,
wherein
at least one hydraulic switching drive of a quick-closing valve is replaced by a pneumatic switching drive, and
in that a pneumatic safety block which at least partially replaces the functions of the hydraulic safety block is provided.
9. The method as claimed in claim 8 ,
wherein
all the hydraulic switching drives are replaced by pneumatic switching drives.
10. The method as claimed in claim 8 ,
wherein
at least one pneumatic switching drive is controlled via the pneumatic safety block.
11. The method as claimed in claim 8 ,
wherein
at least one hydraulic actuating drive is replaced by an electrical actuating drive.
12. The method as claimed in claim 8 ,
wherein
at least one hydraulic actuating drive, which is connected to a central control- and regulation-oil system of the turbine, is replaced by a hydraulic actuating drive with autonomous oil supply.
