The water droplet erosion protection of the rotor blades has been an important issue for a long time, regardless of the design. The aim of this paper is to present a aerodynamic design method for decrease risk of water droplet erosion in wet steam turbine, as well as to present the comparison between then five diffrent bow stator blades. This paper also presents numerical investigation of three dimensional wet steam flows in a stage. This stage has long transonic blades designed using recent aerodynamic and mechanical design methods. The results show that, the one of the five diffrent bow stator blades decrease rist of water droplet erosion of rotaional blades, and the change of the efficiency is small.

The purpose of this paper is to present a numerical evaluation method for the aerodynamic design and development of high-efficiency exhaust diffusers in steam turbines, as well as to present the comparison between the numerical results and measured data in an actual real scale development steam turbine. This paper presents numerical investigation of three-dimensional wet steam flows in a down-flow-type exhaust diffuser that has non-uniform inlet flows from a typical last turbine stage. This stage has long transonic blades designed using recent aerodynamic and mechanical design technologies, including superimposed leakages and blade wakes from several upstream low pressure turbine stages. The present numerical flow analysis showed detail three-dimensional flow structures considering circumferential flow distributions caused by the down-flow exhaust hood geometry and the swirl velocity component from the last stage blades, including flow separations in the exhaust diffuser. The results were compared with experimental data measured in an actual development steam turbine. Consequently, the proposed aerodynamic evaluation method was proved to be sufficiently accurate for steam turbine exhaust diffuser aerodynamic designs.

Last Stage

The purpose of this paper is to present the methodology for high accurate aerodynamic numerical analysis and its design application of steam turbine down-flow type exhaust diffusers including their three dimensional flow interaction effects on last stage efficiencies. Down-flow type exhaust diffusers are used in large scale steam turbines from 200MW to 1400MW class units for power generation plants mainly. The axial length of typical 1000MW class large scale steam turbines is about 30–40m and its four low pressure (LP) down-flow type exhaust diffusers occupy a large amount of space. The axial lengths and diameters of these exhaust diffusers contribute significantly to the size, weight, cost, and efficiency of the turbine system. The aerodynamic loss of exhaust hoods is nearly the same as that of stator and rotor blading in LP steam turbines, and there remains scope for further enhancement of steam turbine efficiency by improving the design of LP exhaust hoods. In the design process of last stages, the average static pressure in the last stage exit is introduced accurately using numerical analysis and experimental data of model steam turbines and model diffusers. However the radial and circumferential unsteady aerodynamic interaction effects between last stages and their exhaust diffusers are still need to be investigated to increase the accuracy of the interaction effect on the last stage efficiencies. This paper presents numerical investigation of three dimensional wet steam flows including three dimensional flow interaction effects on last stage efficiencies in a down-flow type exhaust diffuser with non-uniform inlet flow from a typical last stage with long transonic blades designed with recent aerodynamic and mechanical design technology.

Two Stages

The numerical investigation on the wet steam flow in the last two stages of a 1000 MW fossil-fired low pressure steam turbine is presented in this paper. The non-equilibrium model via the classical nucleation theory is employed to simulate the condensing flow of the wet steam. The characteristics of the flow filed from design condition to low volume flow condition are calculated and the static performance of last stage moving blade is also obtained. The development of the backflow phenomenon is clearly captured through the analysis of the velocity triangle.
