The paper deals with defining flow path efficiency of an experimental steam turbine by using measurement of flow, torque, pressures and temperatures. The configuration of the steam turbine flow path is briefly described. Measuring points and devices are defined. The paper indicates the advantages as well as disadvantages of flow path efficiency measurement using enthalpy and torque on the shaft. The efficiency evaluation by the help pressure and temperature measurement is influenced by flow parameter distribution and can provide different values of flow path efficiency. The efficiency determination by using of torque and mass flow measurement is more accurate and it is recommended for using. The disadvantage is relatively very complicated and expensive measuring system.

The fouling on flow path of steam turbine would lead to the changes of thermal parameters and significantly deteriorated efficiency. In this paper, a qualitative analysis of fouling on flow path based on measured parameters was described for the preliminary diagnosis, and the zooming thermoeconomic diagnosis model combined with the equivalent flow area diagnosis model was proposed to diagnose the specific location of fault. Then the flow performance of a 630 MW supercritical unit was analyzed, and the possible fouling stages were also discussed according to the thermoeconomic diagnosis and quantitative analysis. The result of diagnosis was consistent with the situation of uncovering cylinder, which indicated that though the actual system was complex, the coupling multiple faults of flow path could be diagnosed by combining the above diagnosis models.

Technology requirements for direct coal-fueled turbine systems are discussed. Combustion, emissions, and turbine life considerations are emphasized. Compact, short residence time combustors must provide acceptable combustion efficiencies and emissions using the coal fuels. The turbine flow path exposed to the products of combustion (POC) from those combustors must achieve acceptable deposition, erosion, and corrosion (DEC) lifetimes. Initial combustion and POC requirements are reviewed based on past experience and the results of a recent program to evaluate combustion, emissions, and DEC from a subscale turbine combustor.
