5 INTRODUCTION Scope Page 5 of 70 Steam is used for large industrial process heating. One of pieces of equipment which uses steam is the steam turbine, as a heat engine. Steam turbines are used in industry for several critical purposes: 1) to generate electricity by driving an electric generator and 2) to drive equipment such as compressors, fans, and pumps. Steam turbines are available in a wide range of steam conditions, horsepower, and speeds. The design of Steam Turbine is influenced by factors, including process requirements, economics and safety. This engineering design guideline covers the basic elements of Steam Turbines in sufficient detail to allow an engineer to design a Steam Turbine with the suitable inlet and exhaust diameter, Steam rate, enthalpy change and number of stages. The theory section explains properties of steam, types of steam turbine and their characteristics, steam turbine efficiencies and how to calculate the sizing and selection of a steam turbine. General Design Consideration A heat engine is one that converts heat energy into mechanical energy. The steam turbine is classified as a heat engine. Other heat engines are the internal combustion engine and the gas turbine. Steam turbines are used in industry for several critical purposes: to generate electricity by driving an electric generator and to drive equipment such as compressors, fans, and pumps. Steam turbines are available for a wide range of steam conditions, horsepower, and speeds. Typical ranges for each design parameter are: Inlet Pressure, psig Inlet Temperature, F saturated 1000 Exhaust Pressure, psig saturated 700 Horsepower 5 100,000 Speed, rpm ,000 The steam turbine has a stationary set of blades (called nozzles) and a moving set of adjacent blades (called buckets or rotor blades) installed within a casing. The two sets of blades work together such that the steam turns the shaft of the turbine and the connected load. The stationary nozzles accelerate the steam to a high velocity by expanding it to lower pressure. A rotating bladed disc changes the direction of the
6 Page 6 of 70 steam flow, thereby creating a force on the blades that, because of the wheeled geometry, manifests itself as torque on the shaft on which the bladed wheel is mounted. The combination of torque and speed is the output power of the turbine. Steam turbines used as process drivers are usually required to operate over a range of speeds, in contrast to a turbine used to drive an electric generator which runs at nearly constant speed. The steam turbine permits the steam to expand and attain high velocity. It then converts this velocity energy into mechanical energy. Mechanical drive steam turbines are categorized as: Single-stage or multi-stage Condensing or non-condensing exhausts Extraction or admission Impulse or reaction Based on Stage 1. Single stage In a single-stage turbine, steam is accelerated through one cascade of stationary nozzles and guided into the rotating blades or buckets on the turbine wheel to produce power. A Rateau design has one row of buckets per stage. A Curtis design has two rows of buckets per stage and requires a set of turning vanes between the first and second row of buckets to redirect the steam flow. Single-stage turbines are usually limited to about 2500 horsepower and for larger units need special designs. Below 2500 horsepower the choice between a single and a multistage turbine is usually an economic one. A single-stage turbine will have a lower capital cost for a given shaft horsepower but will require more steam than a multi-stage turbine because of the lower efficiency of the single-stage turbine.
7 2. Multi Stage Page 7 of 70 A multi-stage turbine utilizes either a Curtis or Rateau first stage followed by one or more Rateau stages. The following criteria are used for selection steam turbine type 1. Curtis (Stand alone or Single Stage) a. Compact b. Power is relative small (up to 2000 kw). c. Speed is relative low (up to 6000 rpm, except for special design up to rpm). d. Enthalpy drop is high. 2. Rateau (Multi rows) a. Efficiency is higher than Curtis b. Power is high (up to 30,000 kw) c. Generally, speed is higher than Curtis (up to15000 rpm) d. Enthalpy drop for each row lower than Curtis but still high, higher than Reaction 3. Reaction (Multi row reaction + 1 row impulse for control stage) a. More efficient b. Power is high c. Speed is high (up to15000 rpm) d. Enthalpy drop each row is low e. For low steam pressure.

9 Page 9 of 70 Based on Blade Geometry / Stage Design In a steam turbine, high-enthalpy (high pressure and temperature) steam is expanded in the nozzles (stationary blades) where the kinetic energy is increased at the expense of pressure energy (increase in velocity due to decrease in pressure). The kinetic energy (high velocity) is converted into mechanical energy (rotation of a shaft increase of torque or speed) by impulse and reaction principles. In the case of the fire hose, as the stream of water issued from the nozzle, its velocity was increased, and because of this impulse, it struck the window glass with considerable force. A turbine that makes use of the impulsive force of high-velocity steam is known as an impulse turbine. While the water issuing from the nozzle of the fire hose is increased in velocity, a reactionary force is exerted on the nozzle. This reactionary force is opposite in direction to the flow of the water. A turbine that makes use of the reaction force produced by the flow of steam through a nozzle is a reaction turbine. 1. Impulse Turbine The impulse principle consists of changing the momentum of the flow, which is directed to the moving blades by the stationary blades. The jet s impulse force pushes the moving blades forward. This energy is converted into mechanical energy by rotating the shaft in turbine nozzle. Kinetic energy to be converted to blade become mechanical energy and transferred through rotor, shaft and coupling to the load. Enthalpy drop is high for each moving blades. It has one velocity-compounded stage (the velocity is absorbed in stages) and four pressure-compounded stages. The velocity is reduced in two steps through the first two rows of moving blades. In the moving blades, velocity decreases while the pressure remains constant. Impulse blades are usually symmetrical and have an entrance and exit angle of approximately 20 o. They are generally installed in the higher pressure sections of the turbines where the specific volume of steam is low and requires much smaller flow areas than that at lower pressures. The impulse blades are short and have a constant cross section In a pure impulse turbine, when the steam passes through the stationary blades, it incurs a pressure drop. There is no pressure drop in the steam as it passes through the rotating blades. Therefore, in an impulse turbine, all the change of pressure energy into
10 Page 10 of 70 kinetic energy occurs in the stationary blades, while the change of kinetic energy into mechanical energy takes place in the moving blades of the turbine. Figure 2: Single Stage Impulse Steam Turbine Cutaway (1)
11 Page 11 of Reaction Turbine Figure 3: Principle of impulse turbine The reaction principle consists of a reaction force on the moving blades due to the steam accelerating through the nozzles. The nozzles are actually created by the blades. In reaction turbine, there is no nozzle to convert steam energy to mechanical energy. Each stage of the turbine consists of a stationary set of blades and a row of rotating blades on a shaft. Moving blades work due to differential pressure of steam between front and at behind of moving blades. Since there is a continuous drop of pressure throughout each stage, steam is admitted around the entire circumference of the blades and, therefore, the stationary blades extend around the entire circumference. Steam passes through a set of stationary blades that direct the steam against the rotating blades. As the steam passes through these rotating blades, there is a pressure drop from the entrance side to the exit side that increases the velocity of the steam and produces rotation by the reaction of the steam on the blades. In general, reaction turbine is not stand alone, but works at behind impulse turbine whether constructed in one rotor or at separated rotor, but still connected by coupling.
12 Page 12 of 70 The purpose of impulse turbine is to control speed and reduce steam enthalpy to specified level. Reaction turbine is just receiving steam condition from impulse blades. The reaction stages are preceded by an initial velocity-compounded impulse stage where a large pressure drop occurs. This results in a shorter, less expensive turbine.

15 Page 15 of 70 Based on Steam Supply When classifying steam turbines by their steam supply and exhaust conditions, they are categorized as condensing, non-condensing or backpressure, reheat-condensing, and extraction and induction. 1. Condensing turbine. This type of steam turbine is used primarily as a drive for an electric generator in a power plant. These units exhaust steam at less than atmospheric pressure to a condenser Figure 8: Condensing steam turbine for approximately 65-MW output. (12)
16 Page 16 of Noncondensing or backpressure turbine. This type of turbine is used primarily in process plants, where the exhaust steam pressure is controlled by a regulating station that maintains the process steam at the required pressure. Figure 9 shows a typical arrangement of a backpressure turbine. Figure 9: Backpressure steam turbine for approximately 28-MW output. (12)
17 Page 17 of Reheat-condensing turbine. This type of turbine is used primarily in electricity-producing power plants. In these units, the main steam exhausts from the high-pressure section of the turbine and is returned to the boiler, where it is reheated with the associated increase in steam temperature. The steam is now at a lower pressure but often at the same superheat temperature as the initial steam conditions, and it is returned to the intermediate- and/or low-pressure sections of the turbine for further expansion. 4. Extraction and induction turbine. This type of turbine is also found primarily in process plants. On extraction turbines, steam is taken from the turbine at various extraction points and is used as process steam. In induction turbines, low-pressure steam is introduced into the unit at an intermediate stage to produce additional power. Figure 10: Extraction condensing steam turbine. (12)

Steam turbines are also classified by their casing or shaft arrangement as being single, tandem-compound, or cross-compound and are described as follows: 1. Single casing. This is the basic arrangement for smaller units, where a single casing and shaft are used. 2. Tandem-compound casing. This arrangement has two or more casings on one shaft that drives a generator 3. Cross-compound casing. This arrangement has two or more shafts that are not in line, with each shaft driving a generator. These units are found in large electric utility power plants.
19 Page 19 of 70 Steam Turbine Components The turbine consists of a shaft, which has one or more disks to which are attached moving blades, and a casing in which the stationary blades and nozzles are mounted. The shaft is supported within the casing by means of bearings that carry the vertical and circumference loads and by axial thrust bearings that resist the axial movement caused by the flow of steam through the turbine. Seals are provided in the casing to prevent the steam from bypassing the stages of the turbine. The major portions of a turbine are shown in Figure 12. (a)

(11) Trip and Throttle Valve/Stop (Block) Valve A trip-and-throttle valve or stop valve, or both, may be positioned between the steam supply and the turbine inlet control valve(s). During normal operation this valve remains fully open and its primary function is to shut off the steam supply in response to a trip (shutdown) signal. In addition a trip-and-throttle valve can be used to modulate the steam flow during startup and can be either manually or hydraulically positioned from zero lift to 100% lift. The stop valve can only be positioned either in the closed or fully open positions. In order to minimize the pressure drop through the trip-and-throttle valve, maximum inlet velocities
22 Page 22 of 70 are usually limited to 150 ft/sec. Velocities above this level will usually result in high pressure drops which will reduce turbine efficiency. Important to any turbine is the ability to start and stop the machine under normal (controlled) and emergency conditions. For steam turbines, being able to shut off the steam supply quickly and reliably is required. This is normally accomplished by either main steam (MS) stop valves or trip and throttle (T&T) valves which are usually installed in the inlet piping to the steam turbine or on the turbine shell. The valves are designed to be leak tight otherwise any steam leakage may keep the turbine turning at low speed after shutdown or causing an overspeed because the valve did not close completely after a shutdown or trip. Figure13: Turbine steam chest and valve assembly (12)
23 Inlet Control Valves Page 23 of 70 The primary function of the inlet control valve(s) is regulation of the steam flow to provide the appropriate horsepower and speed. These valves may also close in response to a shutdown signal. Throttling which occurs across the control valve(s) reduces the thermal performance of the turbine. This efficiency loss is a function of the control valve design and overall turbine pressure ratio. For a given amount of throttling, turbines with large pressure ratios suffer smaller efficiency losses than turbines with smaller pressure ratios. Multi-stage turbines may have a single inlet control valve or several control valves to regulate the inlet steam. Typical multi-valve steam turbines will have from three to eight control valves. Multi-valve turbines have higher efficiencies at reduced loads because only the flow through one of the control valves is incurring a throttling loss. Turbines with a single control valve will often employ hand valves to improve efficiency at reduced loads. For the turbine shown in Figure 14 both hand valves would be open at or near full load. As the load on the unit is reduced one or both of these hand valves can be closed to reduce throttling loss. Figure14: Single Valve with Hand Valves (3)
24 Page 24 of 70 Figure 15: Multi-Valve Inlet (3) Nozzles/Blades (Buckets) Steam turbines produce power by converting the energy in steam provided from a boiler or heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) into rotational energy as the steam passes through a turbine stage. A turbine stage consists of a row of stationary blading and a row of rotating blading. Stationary blading is to direct the flow of the passing steam to the rotating blading at the proper angle and velocity for the highest efficiency and extraction of power while the rotating blading is to convert the directed mass flow and steam velocity into rotational speed and torque. The turbine efficiency depends on the design and construction of the blades. Stationary blading may be referred to as nozzles, vanes, stators, partitions, and stationary blading while rotating blades may be referred to as buckets, blades, and rotating blading. Steam turbine blading have different shapes which are referred to as either impulse blading or reaction blading.
25 Page 25 of 70 Reaction blading is characterized by high velocity fluids entering the turbine blade. Typical reaction blading has tear-drop shaped leading edges with a tapered thickness to the trailing edge. The blades may have twist to their shape which may range from low amounts of twist or reaction at the base of the blade to high twist or reaction at the tip of the blade. Impulse blading is characterized by high velocity fluids (higher than reaction blade) entering the turbine blade. Typical impulse blades are crescent or U-shaped and may not always be symmetrical. Impulse type blading is typically utilized in the high pressure or front sections of the steam turbine while reaction blading is utilized in the lower pressure or aft sections of the turbine. On constant speed turbines a design objective is to avoid all bucket resonances at the operating speed. On variable speed turbines, although the design objectives remain the same, it is seldom possible to avoid all blade resonance because of the wide operating speed range. In these cases it is important to identify all blade resonance and to verify that all stresses are well below the material strength. The blade tips may be covered with bands peened to their tips which connect several blades together in groups, or the blades may have integral shrouds which are part of the blades, or may have no tip cover bands or shrouds (free standing). The blade shrouds and cover bands are utilized to keep the passing steam from leaking over the tip of the blades which reduces efficiency and power output and to reduce or dampen the vibration characteristics of the blading. Both stationary and rotating blading can have shrouds or covers depending on the turbine design. Steam turbine blading can be subjected to several failure mechanisms in service. Table 1 Steam Turbine Blading Failure Mechanisms (Latcovich et al, 2005) Failure Mechanism Corrosion Creep Erosion Resultant Damage Extensive pitting of airfoils, shrouds, covers, blade root surfaces Airfoils, shrouds, covers permanently deformed Thinning of airfoils, shrouds, covers, Cause(s) of Failure Chemical attack from corrosive elements in the steam provided to the turbine Deformed parts subjected to steam temperatures in excess of design limits 1) Solid particle erosion from very fine debris and scale in the steam provided

27 Page 27 of 70 Figure 16: Double-flow low-pressure turbine showing variation in blade size. (11) Exhaust Casings Turbine exhaust casings are categorized by pressure service (condensing or noncondensing) and number of rows of the last stage buckets (single flow, double flow, triple flow). Non-condensing exhausts are usually cast steel with most of the applications between 50 and 700 psig exhaust pressure. Most condensing exhausts are steel fabrications although some utilize cast iron construction. Maximum exhaust flange velocities are typically 450 ft/sec. Velocities above this level will usually result in substantial increases in exhaust hood losses and will decrease turbine efficiency. Moisture Protection As steam expands through the turbine both the pressure and temperature are reduced. On most condensing and some non-condensing exhaust applications, the steam crosses the saturation line thereby introducing moisture into the steam path. The water droplets which are formed strike the buckets and can cause erosion of the blades. In
28 Page 28 of 70 addition, as the water is centrifuged from the blades, the water droplets strike the stationary components, also causing erosion. Where the moisture content is greater than 4%, moisture separators, which are internal to the turbine, can be used to remove a large percentage of the moisture, improving the turbine efficiency and reducing the impact erosion on the buckets. Stainless steel moisture shields can also be used to minimize the impact erosion of the stationary components. Control Systems Mechanical governors were the first generation control systems employed on mechanical drive turbines. Shaft speed is sensed by a fly-ball governor with hydraulic relays providing the input to the control valve. A second generation control system was developed and utilized analog control circuitry with the fly-ball governor replaced by speed pick-ups and the hydraulic relays with electronic circuit boards. A third generation control system was developed and replaced the electronic circuitry with digital logic. A microprocessor is used and the control logic is programmed into the governor. The major advantage of this system is the ability to utilize two governors simultaneously, each capable of governing the turbine alone. If the primary governor incurs a fault, the back-up governor assumes control of the turbine and provides diagnostic information to the operator. Discs, Rotors, Shafts, Blade Rings, Shells, and Diaphragms To transmit the torque produced in each stage of the turbine, the rotating blading is fastened to discs or wheels through a specially designed attachment shape at the blade base or root. The root shape may be fir-tree, T-slot, or semi-circular fir-tree shaped or may use multiple pins to hold the blades to the discs. The turbine discs may be shrunk fit onto a shaft with an anti-rotation key or the discs may have been forged with the shaft as an integral assembly. The output shaft from the shrunk fit or integral disc rotor is then connected to the driven equipment through a flange connection or flexible coupling. Similarly, stationary blading roots may be attached to slots in shells, casings, or blade rings or where the stationary blading is welded to support rings to create a stationary blading assembly referred to as a diaphragm. Depending on the pressure and temperature of the steam to the turbine, there may be dual sets of shells or casings; an inner shell which holds the stationary blading and an outer shell which acts as pressure boundary for the turbine as well as accommodating attachment of blade rings.
29 Page 29 of 70 Bearings and Lubrication Systems Bearings are utilized to support the turbine rotor inside housings installed in the turbine shells. Depending on the size and number of stages of the steam turbine, different types of bearings may be utilized. It is common for smaller steam turbines to utilize rolling element bearings while larger turbines will utilize journal and multi-pad thrust bearings. There needs to be a complete lubrication system that reliably provides clean, cool lube oil to the turbine bearings. For many large steam turbines, shaft lift oil systems are utilized to lift the shaft in their journal bearings during starting and to keep the shaft lubricated during coast down of the turbine rotor after steam to the turbine is shut off. For some turbines, lube oil (usually mineral oil) is utilized to power servomotors and actuators for stop and control valves. Steam and Oil Seals In order to keep the steam from going around the stationary and rotating blading, steam turbines utilize seals to keep the steam confined to the flowpath. Depending on the size and type of steam turbine, various types of steam seal designs (carbon rings, labyrinth, retractable labyrinth, brush) may be utilized. These systems are usually pressurized with steam to minimize the pressure differential across these seals so that leakage from the higher pressure parts of the turbine is less likely to occur. Similar type seals are utilized to keep bearing oil confined to the bearing housing. As such, seal systems may have filters, pressure regulators, coolers, and the like to maintain a seal pressure as required. Steam Line Connections and Drains Proper connections and support of the steam lines to the turbine are important as well as the steam drains. If the steam supply lines are putting a load on the turbine, it is likely to cause the turbine to vibrate and will cause mechanical distress to the attachment locations. Similarly, when steam turbines are started, there is a warm-up time to heat the turbine to the proper temperature level before admitting full starting steam. Removal of condensed steam from the stop valve and T&T valves, the turbine shells, and any sealing steam locations during this period of operation is important to prevent damage to the turbine. As such, low point drains, steam traps and drain valves, vents, and the like need to be functioning properly and piping runs orientated so that the water drains out

Small turbines cost about the same as reciprocating engines; 10. Larger turbines cost much less than corresponding sizes of reciprocating engines, and they can be built in capacities never reached by reciprocating engines. 11. Combustion gas turbines possess many of the advantages of steam turbines but are not available in ratings much exceeding 175 and 225 MW for 60- and 50-Hz service, respectively.
