Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steam turbine connection structures, and in particular relates to a connection structure between a cylinder body and a bearing box in a steam turbine and an installation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] At present, the turbine centering beam structures on the market are all installed normally in a cold state. When the turbine is running, a certain offset will be generated to absorb the displacement difference between the bearing box and the cylinder due to the inconsistent expansion. However, the bearing capacity of the centering beam is limited. When the displacement is too large, the reaction force of the structure on the cylinder is too large, affecting the stability of the cylinder, and cannot meet the safe operation requirements of the unit. In addition, the rigidity of the cylinder body and the bearing box is poor when only the centering beam is used to connect the cylinder body and the bearing box. The connection process also involves a connecting beam body, but the existing connecting beam bodies are all fixed by welding. Once a displacement difference occurs between the cylinder body and the bearing box, this connection method cannot effectively eliminate the offset caused by the displacement difference, and it is also easy to cause operating accidents. Therefore, it is in line with practical needs to develop a connection structure for the cylinder body and the bearing box in the turbine to effectively eliminate the offset generated between the bearing box and the cylinder when the turbine is running.

[0044] Specific implementation method ten: refer to Figures 1 to 4This embodiment is described. In this embodiment, a method for installing a connection structure between a cylinder body and a bearing box in a steam turbine is provided. The method is implemented by the following steps:
[0045] Step 1: Align the cylinder body in the steam turbine with the bearing box to be connected, so that each connecting claw 13 overlaps the connection on the bearing box support plate 14. In this process, the thickness of the adjustment gasket 15 can be adjusted according to the distance between the connecting claw 13 and the bearing box support plate 14; 2 groups of adjustment gaskets 15 should be prepared, one group with normal thickness alignment is recorded as A, and the other group is aligned according to the thickness thinner by 1.5mm and recorded as B (the thickness difference is the pre-bias amount). In this step, use the adjustment gasket 15 with a thickness of B to install it first.
[0046] Step 2: Set the centering beam 4 between the cylinder body and the bearing box to be connected, and position the centering beam 4 through N positioning units. One end of the locating pin 1 in each positioning unit passes through the centering beam 4 and is correspondingly set in the locating hole on the end wall 12 of the cylinder body close to the bearing box or the locating hole on the side plate 11 of the bearing box. The other end of the locating pin 1 is fixed to the centering beam 4 by the locating pin locking nut 7 to ensure the stability of the centering beam 4.
[0047] Step 3: Install the locking unit, and fasten the centering beam 4 and the end wall 12 of the cylinder body close to the bearing box and the side plate 11 of the bearing box through N locking units and N positioning units;
[0048] Step 4: Lift the cat claw 13 by a hydraulic jack, remove the adjusting gasket 15 with a thickness of B and install the adjusting gasket 15 with a thickness of A, and pre-tighten and fix the cat claw 13 with the adjusting gasket 15 with a thickness of A, the pressing block 16 and the bearing box support plate 14 by a bolt and nut mechanism;

[0050] The steam turbine used in this embodiment is the steam turbine of the Wenfeng 135MW project, which is an ultra-high temperature subcritical reaction back pressure machine. Due to the large power of the unit and the light weight of the static parts, when the unit is in normal operation, according to the static parts weight calculation of the load diagram, without considering the interface force and moment of the design institute, the cylinder stability margin is very small, and the stability margin of the unit's high-pressure cylinder is only 8.4% (the qualified stability standard is that the stability margin is greater than 10%). Among them, the lifting force of the centering beam on the cylinder is about 2.43t, which will have an adverse effect on the stability of the cylinder. By implementing the scheme of the present invention, the expansion difference at both ends of the centering beam of the unit can be reduced under normal operation, thereby reducing the expansion force of the centering beam on the cylinder, which is beneficial to the stability of the cylinder. Without considering the external interface force and moment of the design institute, the thermal stability margin of the high-pressure cylinder of this project before the centering beam is pre-biased by 1.5mm is 8.4%; after the pre-bias is 1.5mm, the thermal stability margin of the high-pressure cylinder is 21.3%. According to relevant assessment standards, the standard for qualified cylinder stability is that the stability margin is greater than 10%, so the solution of the present invention is more beneficial to the stability of the cylinder.
[0051] The present invention has been disclosed as above with preferred implementation cases, but it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any technician familiar with the profession can make some changes or modifications to equivalent implementation cases with equivalent changes by using the above-disclosed structures and technical contents without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above implementation cases based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
