る場合があった。2. Description of the Related Art When a steam turbine is stopped, generally, the upper half of the outer casing has a higher average temperature than the lower half.
The temperature difference between the upper and lower sides of the outer casing at the time of stoppage indicates a value of the upper half height. When this value increases, the outer casing warps upward due to the difference in axial extension between the upper half and the lower half of the outer casing, and the clearance between the stationary part and the rotating part is crushed. As a result, in the worst case, the stationary part and the rotating part come into contact with each other, which may lead to damage.

している。Therefore, conventionally, it has been widely practiced to forcibly stop cooling, that is, to lower the steam conditions in advance when stopping the turbine and to lower the metal temperature of the entire turbine before stopping. According to the forced cooling stop method, low-temperature steam is continuously supplied to the turbine until the vertical temperature difference in the outer casing does not occur, thereby lowering the metal temperature in the outer casing.

た。However, such a conventional method has the following problems. In other words, according to the above-described forced cooling stop method, the plant is normally shut down. Therefore, although there is no longer a need to consume fuel, the temperature is kept low for about 6 hours until the vertical temperature difference in the outer casing disappears. Extra fuel was consumed to generate steam (to safely shut down the turbine).

At the time of stop, in the outer casing, the main steam inlet pipe connected to the upper half, which is higher in temperature than the lower half, is cooled by cooling air, so that the main steam inlet pipe moves to the upper half of the outer casing. As the heat input to the inner casing decreases, the cooling effect in the upper half increases, and the injected cooling air exchanges heat with high-temperature components such as the inner casing and the rotor, and is then connected to the lower half of the outer casing. Since it is sucked out from the main steam inlet pipe and does not cool the lower half, the temperature difference between the upper and lower halves of the outer casing is reduced.

A cooling air supply line 22 for supplying 21 is connected. On the other hand, a cooling air suction line 23 that sucks cooling air 21 by an ejector or the like is connected to a downstream portion of the main steam control valve 8 of the main steam inlet pipe 5 connected to the lower half 2B of the outer casing. .

半部2B間の温度差が低減される。The cooling air 21 to be injected is heated by itself while cooling the main steam inlet pipes 3 and 4 and enters the interior of the outer casing if there is nothing to do, but it is not known where to go. And since this air temperature is lower than the metal temperature inside the outer casing, together with the upper half 2A of the outer casing,
The lower half 2B may also be cooled. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the injected cooling air 21 is subjected to heat exchange with high-temperature components such as the inner casing and the rotor, and then the main steam inlet pipe 5 connected to the lower half 2B of the outer casing. Through
The cooling air is sucked out by the cooling air suction line 23, so that the lower half 2B is not cooled by the cooling air 21. Therefore, the temperature difference between the upper half 2A and the lower half 2B of the outer casing is reduced.

H. The supply time is set to about 40 hours after the start of turning (after about 30 minutes of the turbine trip), whereby the temperature difference between the upper and lower halves of the outer casing can be reduced by about 15 ° C.

る。As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the temperature difference between the upper and lower halves of the outer casing generated after the steam turbine is stopped without performing forced cooling using low-temperature steam. Therefore, the fuel cost for generating steam for about 6 hours required for forced cooling stop can be saved.

ある。Further, since the temperature difference between the upper and lower halves of the outer casing can be reduced, there is no contact between the rotating part and the stationary part in the radial direction due to the cat sledding of the casing (upward convex deformation), and there is no contact vibration. Of course, the wear and seal fins do not occur, so that the reliability and performance of the turbine are not impaired.
