Definitions
- the invention relates to a condenser system for a steam power plant .
- a condenser system is typically built into a water-steam loop in a steam power plant having a steam turbine. Such a condenser system serves to condense out steam that is flowing out of the turbine. The resultant condensate remains in the water-steam loop and is later optionally reheated. The condenser system extracts heat from the water-steam loop and is cooled through the use of a coolant.
- condenser system Due to stringent demands for reliability, such a condenser system is typically constructed redundantly in every respect. Multiple condenser units are therefore provided.
- the cooling medium is delivered to each of the condenser units through their own lines by their own pumps.
- a condenser system for a steam power plant comprising a condenser unit; a single cooling-water pipe penetrating the condenser unit; and a redundantly constructed pump system for feeding the single cooling-water pipe.
- the invention is based on the concept that in order to simplify construction, reduce costs and simplify assembly, the redundancy of components should be reduced to whatever is indispensably necessary.
- the concept on which the invention is based takes into account the fact that active elements, such as pumps, are much more vulnerable to malfunction than passive elements, such as heat exchangers and supply lines.
- the pump system is therefore constructed to be redundant, while only a single condenser unit is provided, which is also penetrated by only a single cooling-water pipe.
- both pumps can advantageously communicate with the single, common cooling-water pipe over the shortest possible route.
- the pumps are expediently individually disconnectable from the cooling-water pipe through the use of valves .
- the condenser has only a single cooling-water inlet and a single cooling-water outlet connected to the single cooling- water pipe.
- Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic, top-plan view of one exemplary embodiment of a steam turbine system according to the invention
- Fig. 2 is a side-elevational view of the steam turbine system of Fig. 1, as seen along a line II-II of Fig. 1, in the direction of the arrows;
- Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic and schematic view of a condenser system with two pumps.
- a steam turbine system 1 which includes a steam turbine 2 with a high-pressure and medium-pressure portion 2a and a low-pressure portion 2b, to which a condenser 4 is connected radially on the downstream side.
- a preheater unit 6 is disposed on a side of the steam turbine 2 facing the condenser 4.
- a generator 8 located in the vicinity of the steam turbine 2 can be driven through a steam turbine shaft 7.
- Both the high-pressure and medium-pressure portion 2a and the low-pressure portion 2b of the steam turbine 2 as well as the condenser 4 and the preheater unit 6 and the generator 8 are each constructed as a module and are moreover disposed flush with the ground.
- the term "module” should be understood in this case to mean a connectable, transportable component that can be pre-assembled.
- Each of the aforementioned modules is mounted on a sledlike structure or skid in a non-illustrated manner and can thus be shifted about especially easily.
- the steam turbine system 1 is part of a non-illustrated steam power plant having a high-pressure preheater, in the form of a module 9, which is likewise disposed flush with the ground on the side of the steam turbine 2 facing the condenser 4.
- the steam turbine system 1 is connected to a once-through steam generator of the steam power plant in a non-illustrated manner.
- One such once-through steam generator is described, for instance, in co-pending U.S. Patent Application Serial
- the steam turbine system 1 may also be connected to a drum-type steam generator.
- the steam turbine 2, the condenser 4, the preheater unit 6, the generator 8 and the module 9 are disposed in a common power house or turbine hall 10.
- the generator 8 is connected through a supply line system 11, into which a switch system 12 is incorporated, to a generator transformer 13 which is disposed outside the turbine hall 10 and which serves to transform electrical voltage furnished by the generator 8 to a higher level .
- Fig. 2 is a side view of the turbine hall 10, showing the disposition of the steam turbine 2, the condenser 4 and the preheater unit 6 flush with the floor.
- the condenser 4 is radially connected to the steam turbine 2 on the downstream side.
- the condenser 4, which is constructed as a module, includes a first condenser element 4a and a second condenser element 4b located above the first. An especially space- saving, compact construction is thus achieved.
- the module 9 is also mounted on a sled structure or skid.
- the condenser 4 is part of a condenser system 20 having a cooling pump system 21 which includes two pumps 22, 24.
- the condenser 4 In order to provide cooling for the condenser 4, the condenser 4 is penetrated by a cooling-water pipe 26, which enters the condenser 4 in a cooling-water inlet 28 and leaves the condenser at a cooling-water outlet 30. Expansion elements 32 which are also provided compensate for thermal expansion of the cooling-water pipe 26.
- the cooling-water pipe 26 is acted upon through the use of the pump system 21 by a cooling medium, such as sea water or fresh water from a still or flowing body of water.
- a cooling medium such as sea water or fresh water from a still or flowing body of water.
- the pump system 21 is constructed redundantly, so that in the illustrated embodiment, the operation of one of the pumps 22, 24 is adequate to operate the condenser 4.
- Each of the pumps 22, 24 can be disconnected from or connected to the cooling- water pipe 26 through the use of a respective valve 34, 36.
- the cooling medium is released at an end 38 of the cooling-water pipe 26, or in other words it is returned, for instance, to an open body of water.
- the cooling-water pipe 26 has a filter unit 40, in which debris can be filtered out of or separated from the cooling medium.
- the cooling-water pipe 26 also has a cleaning device 42, which includes a first station 44 for introducing cleaning bodies upstream of the cooling-water inlet 28 and a second station 46 for removing the cleaning bodies after they have passed through the condenser 4.
- the pipes of the condenser 4 are made of a titanium alloy, which is especially resistant to corrosion or other harmful factors. This further reduces the vulnerability of the condenser 4 to malfunction, so that despite the lack of redundancy, safe and reliable functioning is assured.
