Analysis of erosion hazards in turbines due to power units operating in low load conditions

Rusin A., Łukowicz H., Bieniek M.

Journal of Power Technologies

2017

Vol. 97, nr 5

366--372

Coal fired power units are having to operate with higher operational flexibility due to changes in the structure of energy systems brought about by the increased production of electric energy from renewable sources. The flexibility at issue relates to frequent changes of generated power and long-running operation at minimum load. By operating in this mode coal fired power units compensate for the stochastic character of energy generated from renewable sources and ensure a desirable reliability level for energy systems, but at the same time it has various impacts on the durability and failure frequency of their component parts. One of the problems which can arise during the operation of turbines working at low loads is increased erosion of the last stage blades of the LP part. This paper presents an analysis of turbine operation conditions which may lead to increased erosion hazards for the blades of the LP part. We address the problem of temperature drop of the re-superheated steam during low load operation of the unit and investigate the impact of erosion losses on the change of dynamic state of the turbine’s last stage blades.

Assessment of slope instability and its impact on land status: a case study from Central Himalaya, India

Vol. 32

Tectonic instability, geological sensitivity along with human intrusion in Himalaya has greatly exacerbated the occurrence of hazardous situation. Dynamics of slope instability have been evaluated under three processes leading to geomorphic instability, viz. i. erosion ii. mass wasting and iii. anthropogenic. Their causative factors have been identified under Ghuniyoli Gad watershed. The measurement of the intensity, magnitude and nature of instability factors were done within the units of 1 km2 under 21 units of watershed. Each unit was evaluated in terms of type, extent and corresponding degree of instability along with their potential assessment. The stage of erosion reveals that Ghuniyoli Gad watershed experiences instability. Maximum units fall under instability of degree 1 and degree 2 (38% and 38%) while minimum units belong to instability of degree 4 (4.76%). The instability of degree 3 contributes only about 19.04%. Appropriate mitigation measures to overcome hazardous calamities are needed to be introduced therein.
