HIGHER HPT FIRST STAGE PRESSURE & RECTIFICATION AT SITE NTPC TANDA TPS
Presented by: Brijesh Kumar (AGM/TMD)
st 1
Stage
st 1
Stage
After R&M, higher 1st stage pressure of HPT was observed in the range of 107 ksc. Higher 1st stage pressure is leads to Lower turbine efficiency. Excessive force on turbine casing parting plane fasteners causing life reduction.
st 1
Stage
Restricted nozzle.
Deposition on the blades of HP rotor & diaphragms.
Steam flowpath
HP nozzle segment condition HP diaphragms for scaling/deposition HP rotor scaling/deposition
Findings
Flowpath readings & blade surfaces of rotor & diaphragms were found satisfactory.

OUR APPROACH
In view of the above findings, the matter was discussed with Ex-BHEL expert & was decided to increase the throat of the nozzle segments while refurbishing it in-situ. HP nozzle refurbishment job done by sandblasting, grinding, polishing & final finishing.
