PREPARATION AND PRECAUTIONS

Before taking up the actual overhauling it is necessary to know the condition


of the unit so as to assess the quantum of work during the overhaul and planning
can be done accordingly. Prior to start the overhauling, the following information
must be collected well in advance.
1) Study the operational data and collect the details about the outages during the
preceding year analyze the data and highlight the causes of the outages along
with the measure to overcome them. All the defects which need rectification
are enlisted.
2) Make a complete list of works to be done and fit them in time bound schedule.
3) Insure the availability and condition of all the special tools and tackles supplied
with the turbine by the OEM.
4) Ensure that the consumables required are available in the store.
5) Ensure the availability of mandatory and essential spares.
6) For reference ensure availability of all the relevant drawings of the turbine and
associated systems.
7) To avoid hazards to personnel and equipment the isolation of the equipment
should be checked very carefully prior to the start of work. All the inlet and
outlet valves should be closed and drain valves if any should be opened. A
protocol must be signed on this account between the operation engineers and
maintenance engineers before the unit is handed over for maintenance.
8) Ensure the availability of all cranes, lifting devices, to avoid accidents or
serious damage to the plant. All lifting devices should be tested and comply
with the station safety regulation.
9) Suitable storage bins should be available to ensure the safe storage of small
components.
10) Suitable tags should be available to facilitate the identification of the bolts.
Nuts, studs, pipes etc. to avoid intermixing.
11) Quick drying paints of various colors as per color code should be available
to color the items as and where necessary.
12) Suitable supports, stands, racks and frames should be readily available. A
positioning layout also should be prepared for the heavy and large
components of the turbine. It is essential to facilitate the proper placement of
heavy components on suitable supports.
13) Delicate and fragile parts, which are not be dismantled such as gauges,
thermocouples, transducers, impulse piping etc. should be properly protected
against damage.

1
14) Wooden blank flanges to fit inside the opening of the pipes, cylinders or
pedestals must be put and tied in position to prevent ingress of any foreign
material.
15) Stands for keeping the HP, IP and LP rotors must be available and checked
before using the same.
16) Care should be taken to avoid oil spillage on the floor or area around the
equipment.
17) Firefighting equipment and first aid boxes should be available near the
work site.
18) Temporary office along with telephone facilities on job site should be
installed to avoid delays in communication.
19) A cleaning gang should continuously work to keep TG floor area free to
dust, dirt, rags, paper etc.

43
SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

DETAILED EXPLANATION :
The couplings of turbine shaft are generally rigid couplings; the basic function of any coupling is to
connect two or more shafts together to form a single shaft assembly. The radial and axial alignment of shafts are
to be completed before their coupling and alignment are to be done in such way that the entire shaft assembly
follow the continuous deflection curve given log sheet. The alignment checks determines both the radial and axial
position of two adjacent coupling flanges relative to one another The radial measurement is perform on
circumference of the coupling and axial measurement is performed on gap created in between the two coupling
flanges.
In any turbine generator erection or in overhauling the rotating shafts of the machine are aligned first &
the stationary parts like casings, seals, glands etc. are aligned later. It is necessary to align turbine generator rotors
because of following reasons.
The coupling connecting the shaft assemblies should be free of stresses & moments.
The objective is to avoid cyclic bending stress in the coupling planes, when coupled shafts are rotating in
the bearings, otherwise it would cause crank like moments
Obviously the undesired effect first mentioned, namely that of cyclic bending stresses, can lead to
malfunctions particularly in case where shrunk fit coupling flanges have been used. If the cyclic bending stress
constantly exceeds permissible levels, the coupling flange may get loosen and result in to failure. The second
undesired effects mentioned, namely crank like movement of shaft, and would result in additional dynamic load on
the adjacent journal bearings. The excessive misalignment will result into extra dynamic forces on the bearings
than permissible limits and will result into heavy vibrations of bearings as well as shafts.

OPERATION

A shaft which is supported at each end will have a certain degree of sag owning to its dead weight .The
extent of sag is essentially determined by the weight, the diameter & the distance between the bearing supporting
the shaft. The center line of shaft supported in such a manner can therefore no longer be regarded as a true
straight line but will assume more or less curve shape relative to the theoretical center line depending upon the
weight of shafts & the distance between two bearings. The actual center line is termed as shaft deflection curve
(catenary of the machine). It is the fact that this deflection curve remains the same even when the turbine is in
running, which in turn means that allowance must be made for shape of the deflection curves during erection &
overhauls of the machine.

44
SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

Deflection curve for Turbine – Generator unit

This is the natural result of the weight factor. Obviously when shaft sag stresses are produced & the restoring
forces originating from these stresses limit the shaft sag. In turbine generator units these natural stresses are
accepted as inevitable. Additional stresses as a result of misalignment, must however, be avoided at all costs. To
satisfy this requirement during erection & overhaul of turbine generator units coupling checks must be employed
to assume optimum alignment of shafts relative to each other.

3.16 - COUPLING CHECK

With the aid of coupling check, it is possible to align the journal bearings so that the deflection curve of a
shaft assembly is continuous. One major precondition in performing the coupling checks is that the bearings
supporting the shafts to be spaces in same way as in later operation. Without doubt, the optimum method of
achieving this is to place the shafts in their intended bearings
The standard coupling check covers firstly the radial position and secondly the axial position of two
adjacent coupling flanges relative to each other. Normally the measurement is taken radially on the circumference
of the adjacent coupling flanges, with the axial measurement being taken on outermost diameter of the inner axial

45
SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

surfaces of the coupling. The measurement itself is taken with the aid of dial gauges or micrometer, or else with a
measuring jig firmly mounted on coupling flange & using a feeler gauge or slip gauge.
To eliminate as far as possible the influence of any axial or radial runouts present in the coupling plane, it
is imperative that the two shafts be turned in same direction and by same amount when the measurement is taken.
Since a measurement is normally taken in the two main planes, vertically and horizontally, at the top and the
bottom as well as on the left and right hand sides in each case, this should be also be turned through 90 degree in
each case.

3.17 - ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE

Draw the meticulously cleaned coupling flanges together using three auxiliary fitting bolts, tight until only a slight
measuring gap is left
Set the measuring jigs in the top position on the coupling of the shaft assembly which are to be measured.
Using marker pen, mark this position with a line on both coupling flanges as “top” and proceeding in clockwise
direction mark “right” & “left position. It is not possible to measure to measure the gap at bottom position of the
coupling, so the bottom gap is calculated from the relation (left gap+ right gap = top gap + bottom gap).
Radial measurement is performed once at each measuring point, axial measurement is performed at
three points (left, right, and top) to compensate slight axial displacement, which are revealed when the shafts are
turned. The precise axial measurement is calculated from the arithmetic mean of the measurements taken at that
point
In detail the procedure is as follows
 Perform radial measurement using measuring jig(dial gauge may also be used) with filler gauge at the top of
the coupling
 Perform axial measurement using feeler gauge (if gap is wide use block gauge also) at right, left and top
coupling flanges.
 Start up jacking oil pump and turn shaft assembly through 90 degree in the direction in which it will rotate in
service, shut down pump (auxiliary coupling bolts must be loose).
 Perform radial measurement at the left of the coupling.
 Perform axial measurement at left, right & top between coupling flanges.
 Rotate the coupling in 180°, 270° & 360°, obtain axial & radial measurements as described above. Calculate
bottom gap from above mentioned relation, and also calculate arithmetic mean of measured gap at each
measurement points.
 Radial correction is applied ½ of the deviation obtained during check and axial correction is applied as it is
obtained during check.

46
SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

3.18 - RUNOUT CHECK

After coupling, adjacent shaft ends must be subjected to a final check for concentricity. An additional
measurement has to be taken at the journal area adjacent to the coupling to detect any runout.
Using firmly attached dial gauge; any runout present at journal & coupling areas can be measured by
carefully turning the coupled line of shafting.
If these checks revel runout of more than 0.03 mm, the couplings have not connected properly. It should
be pointed out here that a radial runout at shaft journal of only 0.03 mm is enough to produce an inherent
imbalance of 30 m in later operation.
The cause of the irregularities mentioned above can be due to unevenly tightened couplings, misaligned
centering and lack of parallelism between the couplings. It is imperative in all cases to locate the cause of the
improper connection and eliminate them by appropriate measure.

3.19 - COUPLING

1) Insert all coupling bolts in coupling bolts in coupling holes as per hole number punch on bolt.
2) Ensure freeness of bolts within 0.02 to 0.03 mm, tight four opposite bolts with prescribed elongation &
then check run out at coupling and journal, if the run out is within the limits tight another four bolts with
prescribed elongation. (0.33 to 0. 34 MM) & check run out at coupling & journal.
3) If it is found that run out at particular bolt or coupling & journal is going out of limit, use indifferent
method of tightening to control excess run out at journal & coupling.
4) Coupling bolts are not to be hammered in coupling holes & these are to be fitted with thumb pressure
only.
5) Balancing of coupling bolts by weight.
6) The question of balancing of coupling bolts arises only when the reaming & honing operations are carried
out in overhauling. The coupling bolts are to be balance within 5 gm accuracy.
7) Final balancing of coupling bolts is to be done along with individual bolt. If all coupling holes are of same
size before & after honing & reaming then all the bolts are kept of equal weight. If necessary adjust the
weight of bolts by machining the metal from bolt head or add weight by welding electrode.

3.20 - REVISIONING OF COMBINED JOURNAL & THRUST BEARING

1. Before removal of bearing measure float of rotor. Measurement of float is necessary before dismantling
of thrust pad, as it is pad thickness deciding factor.
2. Remove the top half, load the rotor on lifting tackle, remove JOP connection & take out bottom half of
bearing. Remove spherical seats & take it out. Assemble the bearing out side & check spherical seat &
spherical support contact. The contact should be full throughout length & area of the spherical seat, no
contact around 25 to 30 mm area from both ends of spherical seat may be accepted.
3. Check the feeler tightness of spherical seat & support, the seat should be feeler tight, check it by inserting
0.03 mm feeler gauge in between gap of spherical seat & support. Check bearing shell parting plane feeler
tightness & pinch of bearing liner. Also check feeler tightness of bearing shell & liner. After tightening
bearing P/P bolts there should not be any gap in between bearing shell & liner.
4. Ensure proper color contract between spherical seat of bearing & pedestal, if required color matching
may be carried out for full contract.
5. Preparation of thrust pads: The thrust pads are dismantle from bearing by taking out holding pins of pads.
The working area of pad is blue matched & the spring elements are removed. Adding or subtracting shims
in between spring element & thrust pad can change the thickness of pad. The float is the thickness
deciding factor for thrust pads, accordingly add shims in between pad & spring element, increase the
thickness & reduce the float of rotor with required value. Take the bearing bottom shell contract with
rotor by placing it on rotor, the contract should be 20 to 30 mm wide & throughout length of liner, this
should be carried out for all bearings & if required corrections are made by hand work.
Check the side contract faces of bearing shell on which the axial keys rests, similarly check
pedestal side contact faces where axial keys rests if any pitting is observed, remove it by hand work
(scrapping). The mating faces of key & block should be surface ground & must have good contact with
pedestal & bearing shell.
The axial keys are prepared after checking parallelism of bearing with pedestal, its axial
positioning & Measurement of side oil clearances. Ensure that the bearing is fully rest on spherical seat
axially.
It should not be assembled in shifted condition from spherical seat. Check the self-aligning
property of bearing by disturbing bearing axially with 0.03 mm & rotating rotor for three to four times &
rechecking its axial position. The bearing should come to its original position (parallel to pedestal) with
the disturbed shift value i.e. 0.03 mm.
Make the bearing parallel with pedestal & measure the axial key gap at all four sides & prepare
the thickness of keys according to measurement. The thickness of keys should be made in such a way that
the keys should go hand tight.\, inside the gap 0.03 mm feeler tight key can be accepted.

SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

3.21 - BLUE MATCHING OF THRUST BEARING


After completion of reaming / honking & final tightening of coupling the color matching of thrust
bearing pads have to be carried out with respect to thrust collar of HP rotor. During color matching a good
contact, on all pads of front & rear side are to be ensured with respect, to rotor collar by moving rotor in +
ve & -ve direction on its hand rotation. The thrust bearing should be axially lock with axial key during its
color matching of pads. Color is to be applied on the thrust collar of rotor. After color matching of thrust
pads, the axial zero position of rotor is achieved & this can be taken as reference for all other instruments
like axial shift probe, differential expansion probe etc.

3.22 - BEARING REVISIONING

1) Before removal of pedestal top, ensure that all insulation removal work completed.
2) Remove cover & record seal bore readings at all pedestal (front and rear) with the help of inside
micrometer. Put dummy gasket on oil inlet hole of bearing pedestal, at its parting plane.
3) Measure the yoke key clearances take out the keys & remove the yoke.
4) Measure bearing oil – guard clearances & remove it. Remove top half of bearing & measure side oil
clearances with feeler gauge, compare it with available drawing readings, if variation is noticed correct it
from side keys. The correction should be carried out only when it is necessary. Measure the top oil
clearance with the help of lead wire. Place the wire on journal along its axis put top half in position tight it
fully, again remove top half & take out the lead wire & measure the thickness without side micrometer.
The thickness will give the top oil clearance.
5) Put rotor lifting device in position take the load of rotor on device, take out JOP connection & remove the
bottom half of bearing. Take out bearing seat & check the bearing seat contact. Assemble the bearing
check feeler tightness of liner with shell. The liner & shell should be 0.03 mm feeler tight. Inspect bottom
& top half for any damage on babbit. Carry out DPT & ultrasonic of bearing liner to identify any cracks or
babbit looseness.
6) Put the seat in position tight it put little oil for lubrication & place in position. Do not take out two
bearings of same shaft at the same time.
7) For Bearing No. 3, 4 & 5, ensure color contact between cylindrical seat of bearings & pedestal, if required
it by hand work (scrapping). Ensure contact between torous piece of bearing & cylindrical seat of pedestal,
the contract should be line contact through out the seat of width not more than 20 mm. If the contact is
disturb the machine may cause problem while in operation like jamming of bearing gear, heavy pedestal
vibration etc. In case of any variation, it is required to send the same to works for machining the seat
faces. As per recommendations & instructions of M/s BHEL, it is not allowed to achieve contact with hand
machining.

3.23 - OIL FLUSHING AND PEDESTAL BOX UP

1) Before oil finishing clean the pedestal completely & remove bearing inlet throttle (for Bearing No. 1, 2, 3,
4, 5 ) & put bearing oil flushing dummies in all throttle, for bearing No. 6 & 7 shock circuit the inlet / outlet
pipe with special pipe connection.
2) Before oil flushing ensure that the insulation work is completed & pedestal oil guard rings are fitted in
position with required clearances. If during operation any pedestal oil leakage noticed, change the brass
fins & machine it with desired clearances. Set it on pedestal with respect to rotor.
3) Ensure that pedestal parting plane is feeler tight after tightening all parting plane bolts. If required color
matching may be carried out by scrapping. The cutting is to be carried out on upper half of the pedestal
cover, Box up all bearings remove gasket dummy from oil inlet at P/P of pedestal & assemble the yoke.

50
SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

Prepare top / bottom yoke keys, by keeping 0.05 to 0.06 mm clearance. Apply jointing compound in
between P/P & box up the pedestal top cover after.
4) Start the oil pump & check the complete oil system for oil leakages. Slowly raise the temperature of oil to
normal working level is 42 0C, run the oil pump for 24 hours, clean the MOT bucket strainer & restart the
pump. Again stop the pump after 24 hours clean the bucket strainer. Remove top covers of all pedestals,
take out dummies from inlet & refit bearing inlet throttle in position. Complete instrumentation and
calibration. Take bearing No. 6 & 7 pedestal in oil circuit by removing shock circuit pipe connection.
Start AOP, now the bearings are taken in oil flushing again the system is checked for leakage, dirt
in MOT strainer is observed is the percentage of dirt is decreasing then put thrust bearing filters in service
& observer the choking rate before putting machine on barring. The thrust bearing filter should stand for
at least 16 hours, conclude the oil flushing & give clearance to barring.
Before box up of pedestal measure final seal bore readings & all other control readings. The
pedestal packers are to be removed, cleaned & contact of each should be checked. The axial keys are
removed, cleaned, lubricated & put back in position. Put machine on barring, observe for oil leakage &
rubbing sound.

3.24 - BUMP CHECK


The bump check is carried out for measurement of axial clearances, between rotor & casing seals, both in
+ve & -ve direction.
Before carrying out bump check measure the float of rotor with pads, adjust the rotor in center position &
counter check with reference readings.
Remove thrust pads, start JOP & move rotor towards HP casing in couples condition with respect to
bearing no 2, either by stopper or with leaver. Keep the rotor in rotation, when the rubbing sound is noticed stop
rotating & note down reading either by dial gauge or inside micrometer. The difference in reference reading &
reading obtained after shift will give IP -ve bump of rotor in that direction. Further Decouple the IP/LP coupling,
close the jacking oil of Bearing No. 3 to avoid shifting of IP rotor. Jack HP rotor towards front side, till it stops
further movement in axial direction. Install another dial gauge on IP rotor coupling to check IP rotor movement, in
–ve direction. The readings are noted, the difference in reference reading and reading after shift will give HP +ve
( shift of IP rotor + shift of HP rotor with reference to IP coupling).
Couple HP/IP rotors, bring back to reference position and move rotor towards IP turbine and measure the
reading, the reference reading and reading obtained after shift will give difference in HP -ve bump.
Similarly, to measure HP +ve bump jack the IP rotor toward generator with reference to HP coupling by
closing jacking oil valve of Bearing No. 2, to avoid slipping of rotor towards HP Turbine. Press the rotor with the
help of stopper towards Generator till it stops moving further in same direction. Measure the readings. The
difference in reference reading and actual reading obtained after shift will give the bump of IP rotor in positive
direction.

SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

3.25 - HORN DROP TEST

Horn drop test is carried out for measuring the loading of casing on each corner of pedestal. The horn
drop readings are important in the HP & IP casings & may cause serious problems in operation of machine like high
vibrations in machine, failure of barring in hot or cold machine, obstruction during expansion of machine etc.
In horn drop test a drop is measured at an individual corner of the casing with the help of dial indicator by
removing support / packer of individual corner & then it is compared with opposite corner to record indifferent,
loading of casing.
Preparation & Procedure:
1) Ensure availability of four no of hydraulic jacks having capacity of 50 tons each.
2) Ensure four no of jackscrews of size M-60.
3) Place four jacks below Four Corners casing.
4) While recording the horn drop readings the casing must be absolutely free & even the radial or axial keys
of front & rear end of casing either to be removed or made free.
5) A dial gauge is also to be installed on each corner of casing to measure drop.
6) By lifting individual corner with jack the load of casing is supported on hydraulic jack or jacking screw,
then removes the individual packer.
Now gradually the jack is released in support of jacking screw to avoid jack failure or sudden release of
jack due to manual operation (may cause damage to seals). This is carried out at all Four Corners of HP & IP casings
& the drop readings are recorded on dial gauge.
If the corner is lifted by (+) 0.1 mm & packer is removed, then it is allowed to come down (-) 0.1 mm, this
is the zero position of the corner. Further drop from this position will be the drop of the particular corner
accordingly carried out for all Four Corners of casing.

3.26 - ROLL CHECK

This check is carried out in KWU machine for measurement of minimum radial clearance in HP, IP & LP
casing. It is measured by actual movement of casing from right to left & top to bottom, while rotating the rotor by
hand.
The variation in the readings may cause vibrations, obstruction to barring gear & reduced efficiency of
machine. The roll check should be carried out along with checking of centering of casing with respect to rotor. As
per roll check readings, casing centering should be carried out & same readings should be recorded for reference.
The roll check should be carried out in cold machine only.

PROCEDURE :
1) Alignment & coupling of HP, IP & LP rotors to be completed before starting the rolling test of the casing.

52
SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

2) Centering readings should be recorded before carrying out the check, as to place casing in its original
position after the check if no corrections are required.
3) Install all jacking screws of HP & IP casing at all four corners along with dial gauges for monitoring up
down & left right movement of casing.
4) Place four hydraulic jacks of 50 T capacities below four corners of casing.
5) Before starting roll check, it should be ensure that rotor is totally free on hand barring, otherwise make it
free by adjusting the lift of rotor at each journal (normally 0.1 to 0.11 mm).
6) Measure the lift of rotor at corresponding journal by starting JOP; usually it is adjusted to 0.1 mm by
throttling jacking oil inlet valve. (Corresponding journal means, for HP casing J-1 & J-2 for IP J-2 & J-3 for
LP J-3 & J-4).
7) Lift the casing at all four corners in step of 0.05 mm to 0.1 mm with the help of hydraulic jack in support of
jacking screws. The rotor is also kept rotating manually side by side with the lifting of casing.

The rotation of rotor & lifting of casing continued till it becomes slightly tight at the seals of casing. After
this lowers the casing by 0.05 mm at all Four Corners & the rotor is rotated again. If the rotor is not completely
free, then 0.05 mm again lowers the casing till the rotor is completely free. After ensuring freeness of rotor it is
again rotated & the casing is lifted on its front end till the rotor rotation becomes tight on seal portion of front end.
As soon as the shaft become tight the lifting of casing & rotation of rotor is stopped, dial readings on front end left
right recorded. The lift on front end of casing gives bottom clearance of front end of casing.
After this the casing is lowered in step of 0.05 mm on front end to achieve freeness of rotor. The rear end
of casing is then lifted in steps of 0.05 mm by keeping rotor in motion. The lifting is continued till rotor become
tight on its seal. The corresponding dial reading on left & right corner of rear end of casing will give bottom
clearance on rear end of casing.
After recording the bottom clearances of front & rear end of individual casings, the casing is lowered back
to its original zero-zero position with hydraulic jack in support of jack screws.
Similar procedure is to be repeated for deciding top clearances of the casing. This may be decided by
lowering casing by removing packers below the corners of the casing, with the help of hydraulic jack in support of
jacking screws. The casing is lowered in step of 0.05 mm to 0.1 mm keeping rotor in motion till it become tight, on
its seals. Front & rear clearance is obtained as started in above procedure & casing is moved back to its original
position.
After recording the top & bottom clearances, the radial keys of casing are removed and again rolling test
for left & right directions are done similar to top / bottom. The procedure is same as that of top / bottom, only the
difference is dial gauges are installed on left & right corners for measurement of left / right clearances. After this
check the casing is brought back to its original position.

53
SYSTEMATIC PROCEDURE OF TURBINE OVERHAULING

After completion of the rolling test, casing clearances are adjusted as required in radial direction with the
help of radial keys & packers below the horns of casing. Final corresponding centering reading is recorded with
respect to roll check correction.

3.27 - SWING CHECK

Swing check is the measurement of radial throw, caused due to coupling face run out of two coupled
rotors. This is measured on opposite end of coupling at journal where the weight of shaft is less as compared to
other end.
The higher swing check values may cause higher shaft vibration, higher Babbit metal temperature etc. The
value of swing check depends upon axial run out of coupling faces, the diameter of coupling & length of rotor. It is
recommended to keep minimum swing check value for better performance during operation of machine. In
tandem compounding turbine it is essential to measure swing check value on extreme end & where the weight of
rotors is light. In 210/250/500 MW KWU machine it is measure on HP rotor front.
Any variation in the swing check value may be corrected by inter changing the coupling face position or by
correcting the coupling faces with scrapping.
Face run out of all couplings is to be checked for concavity / convexity. This can be checked with the help
light wt straight edge. No. convexity is permitted; concavity of about 0.04 to 0.05 is permitted.
While recording the swing check readings of HP rotor front end is to be supported on lifting device & front
bearing bottom is removed. During swing check the lifting device are to fit properly, the tie rods of lifting device
should be seen for correct, fitting of its spherical bearings etc. The spherical bearings should not obstruct the
movement of shaft radially during checking of swing check.
IT can be carried out in other way by shifting load of rotor on dummy bearing and hanging it to EOT crane
with long sling. Ensure that the rotor is not disturbed radially due to fitting of dummy bearing.
During checking of swing check readings measure radial movement of rotor on parting plane & rotate the
rotor either on jacking oil with hand barring. Avoid jerk during rotation of rotor while recording the swing check
readings.
The final swing check value of HP rotor is to be measured after fitting & elongation of all coupling bolts of
HP-IP & IP-LP rotors. During tightening of coupling bolts the indifferent tightening of bolts may be avoided for
improvement of swing check & sequential tightening may be followed.
During checking of swing check readings the initial few rotations are given to the rotor to avoid initial sag
due to stationary position and then only the readings are to be recorded.

18. After achieving vacuum more than 0.8 Kg/cm2 open the HRH /CRH strainer drains (HRH 101 & 102) and
LPBP warm up line drains (HRH 103 & 104) AND CRH line drains (CRH -101) TO HPFT.
19. Open HPBP warm up valves (BD 3&4) and ensure that there is no water hammering. After warm up (CRH
& HRH line temp. >100 deg C& pressure >1.5 Kg/cm2), slowly open LPBP by 2-5 %. Ensure that the
injection water valve is open by at least 50%.

TURBINE COMMISSIONING

20. Reset the LPBP tripping. Once the HRH pressure is > 2 Kg/cm2, open LPBP spray valve first and then LPBP
stop and control valves. While opening the LPBP spray valves ensure that the CEP discharge header
pressure should not reduce < 20 Kg/cm2.
21. Open HPBP, raise the boiler parameter to 40-50 Kg/cm2 , and temp 350-375 deg C and HRH parameter -4-
12 Kg/cm2 @300 Deg C. by opening the LPBP control valves.
22. Ensure that condenser vacuum is <-0.85 Kg/cm2.
23. Ensure there is no hold up from Generator / bo8iler end for turbine rolling.
24. Ensure that all ESV, IPSV and HP & IP control valves are closed and control fluid lines to governing rack
and control valves are lined up.

4.7 - HYDRAULIC ROLLING


1. Ensure that the governing rack isolating valves in the secondary fluid lines of HP & IP control valves are
isolated from EHG.
2. Ensure the starting device and speeder gear are at 0%
3. Ensure turbine is on barring gear with all interlock and protections.
4. Open the starting device up to 25-27% slowly, the ESVs will start opening, wait for ESVs to open full. Raise
the start up device further such that IPSVs start opening, wait for IPSVs to open full. Leave the start up
device at that position.
5. After opening ESVs & IPSV s wait for stop valves & HP & IP turbine casing and shaft temperature to
stabilize.
6. Ensure that no vibrations (bearing pedestals or shaft) and bearing temps are above the alarm limits.
7. Ensure that the lub oil temperature after cooler is 42-45 0C.
8. Ensure that X 4 & X5 Criteria for rolling are satisfied and proper margins of TSE (>30 deg K) are available.
9. Now open the start up device very slowly keeping watch on the turbine speed. Turbine speed will increase;
hold the speed at 600 rpm. by positioning the start up device.
10. Ensure that with rise in speed the primary oil pressure should increase (check out from local gauge
reading). If the primary oil pressure does not increase (around 0.5-0.8 Kg/cm2 at 600 rpm), reduce start
up device to close the control valves and speed is reduced. Investigate the reason.
11. If primary pressure increases with speed then, the speed is to be maintained at around 600 rpm. During
speed up first gate valve gearing will close at 240 rpm and at 540 rpm JOP will be OFF on auto.
12. Allow the turbine to soak at 600 rpm and monitor the casing expansions, bearing and shaft vibrations,
bearing metal temperatures and axial shift reading.
13. Compare the turbine speed in control room with tachometer (for first rolling) for its correctness.
14. Ensure that TSE margin and CRITERIA X-6 before rolling is to be satisfied.
15. Take clearance from generator and boiler end for rolling.

62
TURBINE COMMISSIONING

16. Ensure that generator H2 cooler and exciter cooler are charged from cooling waterside.
17. Ensure that no parameters are above the alarm limits.
a) Bearing vibration < 84 Microns.

b) Shaft vibration < 200 Microns.

c) Axial shift < +-0.5 MM.

d) LP Hood Temp. < 90 0C.

e) Diff. Expansion +2 mm

f) Diff. Temp HPT +-55 0C

g) Diff. Temp. IPT +-45 0C

18. Open start up device very slowly. Turbine speed will rise. At around 2500-2800 rpm the speed will try to
stabilize, this is called governor take over speed. With starting device full open the speed will not
increased beyond this value. Ensure the primary oil pressure in the local gauge is around 1.8-2.0 Kg/cm2,
to increase speed further, we need to increased the speeder gear. From 0%
19. Now open the starting device full. Speed will not increase beyond take over speed of governor.
20. Slowly raise the speeder gear from 0%.
Adjust the speeder gear position such that the speed is maintained at 3000 rpm. At about 2950 rpm MOP
will take over and running AOP will be cut off on auto.
21. Ensure that the lub oil temp after cooler is not increasing beyond set value (45 0C). Allow soaking of
turbine at rated speed and wait for thermal stabilization of turbine casings. Observe for any abnormality
for any of the above parameters and bearing metal temps and vibrations.
22. Ensure that sufficient TSE margin (>30 deg K) and X7 criteria are available.
23. Give clearance for synchronization of unit.
