Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steam turbine maintenance equipment, and in particular relates to a steam turbine numerical control gear boring machine and method. Background Art
[0002] Steam turbines are rotating equipment powered by steam. They have dynamic seals, which require steam baffles to prevent steam leakage. The gap between these baffles is crucial for steam turbines. Generally, the clearance tolerance is 0.15mm. Excessive gaps can reduce unit efficiency, while too small a gap can cause friction in the dynamic seals, compromising safe turbine operation. The turbine rotor is the rotating component, supported by grounded bearings at both ends and isolated from the stationary cylinder. The turbine cylinder, the stationary component, consists of a multi-layered structure consisting of upper and lower halves. Inside, stationary components such as the baffle sleeve and vane retainer rings are installed. Due to deformation of these components during high-temperature operation, the seal area undergoes elliptical deformation from the half-cylinder to the full-cylinder. This elliptical deformation can also cause deviation between the center of the half-cylinder and the full-cylinder.
[0003] During current maintenance, due to the limited internal space of a fully-filled turbine, baffle tip diameter machining is performed only with the turbine halfway through the cylinder. However, with the cylinder fully filled, the center of the stationary components shifts, causing the baffle tips to become misaligned with the rotor and exhibiting roundness deviations. Consequently, a tool capable of boring baffle tips with the cylinder fully filled is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention
