Method for the short-term adjustment of the output of a combined-cycle power plant steam turbine, for primary frequency control
A method for the short-term adjustment of the output of a steam turbine of a combined-cycle power plant, includes: opening, respectively closing, a backed-up turbine valve of a pressure stage, according to a required change in output; comparing a desired pressure with a pressure measurement upstream of the turbine valve to measure pressure of steam mass flow flowing into the pressure stage; and opening, respectively closing, a feed line for introducing a variable proportion of water into the steam mass flow as soon as the pressure falls below or exceeds the desired pressure; the variable proportion of water is introduced into the steam mass flow until an adjusted desired steam temperature is reached, which is determined from the difference between a basic specified desired steam temperature and the default value of a controller which operates at least proportionally and evaluates the difference between the pressure measurement and the desired pressure.
1. A method for brief power matching of a steam turbine of a gas and steam power plant, for primary regulation, which turbine has pressure stages comprising at least a high-pressure stage, a medium-pressure stage and a low-pressure stage, comprising:
opening or closing a medium-stage turbine valve of the medium-pressure stage of the steam turbine in a manner dependent on a required change in power,
comparing a predefined pressure target value with a pressure measurement, upstream of the medium-stage turbine valve, which provides a measurement of the pressure of a first steam mass flow flowing into the medium-pressure stage,
opening or closing of a feed for introducing a variable water fraction into the first steam mass flow of the medium-pressure stage or into a second steam mass flow of the high-pressure stage as soon as the pressure measurement has fallen below or has exceeded the pressure target value,
wherein the variable water fraction is introduced into the steam mass flow until a steam temperature target value is reached, which is determined from a difference between a predefined basic steam temperature target value and an output value of a regulator which has at least proportional action and which evaluates and compensates for the difference between the pressure measurement and the pressure target value.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the introduction of the variable water fraction into the first steam mass flow or the second steam mass flow is realized by an injection cooling device.
3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the introduction of the variable water fraction into the first steam mass flow or the second steam mass flow is realized by a change in the feed-water mass flow flowing into a steam generator arranged upstream of the steam turbine.
4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the feeding of the variable water fraction into the second steam mass flow flowing into the high-pressure stage of the steam turbine is realized.
5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the introduction of the variable water fraction, and the opening or closing of the turbine valve and a turbine valve of at least one other pressure stage, is realized in a plurality of the pressure stages of the steam turbine.
