Steam turbine plant
A steam turbine plant includes a high-medium pressure turbine having a high-pressure turbine section provided at one end portion in an axial direction and a medium-pressure turbine section provided at the other end portion; a low-pressure turbine disposed coaxially with the high-medium pressure turbine; a condenser configured to cool steam used in the low-pressure turbine to condense the steam into condensate; and a feed-water heater configured to heat the condensate with steam discharged from the high-pressure turbine section. The plant also includes a low-pressure moisture separating and heating device configured to remove moisture of steam discharged from the medium-pressure turbine section, and to heat the steam with a part of steam to be sent to an inlet portion of the high-pressure turbine section and a part of steam to be sent to an inlet portion of the medium-pressure turbine section from an outlet portion of the high-pressure turbine section.
1. A steam turbine plant comprising:
a high-medium pressure turbine having a high-pressure turbine section at a first end portion in an axial direction and a medium-pressure turbine section at a second end portion;
a low-pressure turbine disposed coaxially with the high-medium pressure turbine;
a condenser configured to cool steam used in the low-pressure turbine to condense the steam into condensate;
a feed-water heater configured to heat the condensate with steam discharged from the high-pressure turbine section;
a high-pressure moisture separating and heating device configured to remove moisture from steam discharged from the high-pressure turbine section, and to heat the steam discharged from the high-pressure turbine section using a part of steam to be sent to an inlet portion of the high-pressure turbine section;
a low-pressure moisture separating and heating device configured to remove moisture of steam discharged from the medium-pressure turbine section, and to heat the steam discharged from the medium-pressure turbine section using a part of steam to be sent to an inlet portion of the high-pressure turbine section and using a part of steam to be sent to an inlet portion of the high-pressure moisture separating and heating device from an outlet portion of the high-pressure turbine section; and
steam pipes configured to send steam discharged from the high-pressure turbine section, from the outlet portion of the high-pressure turbine section to the feed-water heater, the high-pressure moisture separating and heating device, and the low-pressure moisture separating and heating device.
2. The steam turbine plant according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of the feed-water heaters are disposed in series along a flow direction of the condensate, and the feed-water heater that is disposed on the most downstream side in the flow direction of the condensate heats the condensate with the steam discharged from the high-pressure turbine section.
3. The steam turbine plant according to claim 1 , wherein the feed-water heater includes a low-pressure feed-water heater and a high-pressure feed-water heater that are disposed in series along the flow direction of the condensate, and the high-pressure feed-water heater heats the condensate with the steam discharged from the high-pressure turbine section.
