Background Art

[0002] After the overhaul of a mixed-flow turbine generator set, when the runner is reinstalled, the runner needs to be adjusted horizontally to ≤0.02mm / m and the center to ≤0.15mm. The traditional method is to use a copper wedge plate to limit the runner and the bottom ring after the runner level is basically adjusted to meet the requirements, and adjust the runner center. This method requires continuous adjustment of the insertion depth of the wedge plate in at least 8 directions as the runner falls. Often, due to the lack of coordination between the personnel inserting the wedge plate, after the runner is completely dropped, the gap between the runner and the lower leak-proof ring in all directions is uneven, resulting in an unqualified runner center and the need to re-raise and lower the runner, which restricts the maintenance period of the unit.

The support plate 7-3-1 and the sliding copper washer 7-3-2 are connected by four hexagon socket countersunk bolts 7-3-4. A lever hole 7-3-3 is provided on the side wall of the support plate 7-3-1. This lever hole 7-3-3 facilitates the insertion of a rod and drives the support plate 7-3-1 to rotate, thereby completing the installation and removal of the support plate. The end support device 7-3 has two main functions: 1) controlling the center of the wheel 1 during its descent; and 2) transmitting the force of the single-acting thin jack 8 during the center adjustment of the wheel 1.

[0059] The stopper 7-1 is connected to the center adjustment screw 7-2 by a thread, and a second locking nut 7-5 is used to strengthen the force. The end support device 7-3 is connected to the center adjustment screw 7-2 by a thread, and a first locking nut 7-4 is used to strengthen the force.

Before overhaul, the runner lower ring is lowered onto a wedge plate on the foundation ring through force conversion. After the repair, when the runner is hoisted in, the runner center, level, and elevation must be adjusted to within the required range to ensure smooth reinstallation of all unit components. Runner leveling is achieved by measuring four symmetrical positions on the runner or main shaft flange using a combined level, with the final combined level ≤0.02mm / m. Runner centering is achieved by measuring the gap between the lower stop ring and calculating the runner center deviation, with a center deviation of ≤0.15mm.

[0064] Step 1.2) Before repair, after the force conversion is completed, the weight of the runner 1 and the main shaft all falls on the wedge plates 6 corresponding to the base ring 9. Spot weld the wedge plates 6 and spot weld the wedge plates 6 to the base ring 9 firmly.

[0065] Step 1.3) Before repair, after the top cover and main shaft are lifted out and before the runner is lifted out, use a coincident level 10 to measure the runner level before repair in four directions symmetrical to the runner flange surface, avoiding the position of the runner lifting device. The level is recorded as θ (with the horizontal upward as positive) and the azimuth angle α (with the +X direction as 0° and counterclockwise as positive).

[0066] Step 2), initial level adjustment:

[0067] Step 2.1) Calculate the padding thickness of each wedge plate 6 based on the level of the runner before repair in step 1.3) and pad the wedge plate 6 with copper sheets;

[0070] Step 2.4), the final padding thickness of each wedge plate is Δ(n)=δ(n)+|Min{δ(n),n=1~8}|;

[0071] Step 2.5) Add copper padding on the wedge plate 6 according to the thickness of step 2.4). It is best if the copper padding covers the entire wedge plate 6.

[0074] Step 3.2) Weld the stopper 7-1 of the center adjustment device 7 to the base ring 9 near the measuring hole of the lower rotating leak-proof ring 5;

[0075] Step 3.3) Before the runner 1 is hoisted into the pit, after adding the copper sheet as per step 2.5), apply grease or vaseline between the copper sheet and the runner;

[0076] Step 3.4) After the runner 1 is hoisted into the pit and lowered until the lower rotating leak-proof ring 5 is between 5 and 10 mm from the wedge plate 6, the center adjustment screw 7-2 of the rotating center adjustment device 7 is rotated so that each end support device 7-3 just touches the runner 1, thereby limiting and fixing the runner 1; measure the gap between the lower fixed leak-proof ring 4 and the lower rotating leak-proof ring 5, and record them as a2, b2, c2, and d2. At this time, the target gap of the runner in the x direction is x=(d2+b2) / 2, and the target gap in the y direction is y=(c2+a2) / 2;

[0077] Step 3.5) Adjust the top screws to move the center of the runner to the target center, and keep the bilateral clearance between each end support device and the runner at about 0.10mm;

[0078] Starting from the +y direction, clockwise, the adjustment amounts of each top screw are recorded as e, f, g, and h respectively;

[0079] The adjustment amount of the top screw in the +y direction is e=a2-y=(a2-c2) / 2-0.05. A positive value indicates that the top screw is extending away from the center of the wheel.

[0080] The adjustment amount of the top screw in the +x direction is f=b2-x=(b2-d2) / 2-0.05. A positive value indicates that the top screw is extending away from the center of the runner.

[0081] - The adjustment amount of the top screw in the y direction is g=c2-y=(c2-a2) / 2-0.05. A positive value indicates that the top screw is extending away from the center of the wheel.

[0082] - The adjustment amount of the top screw in the x-direction is h=d2-y=(d2-b2) / 2-0.05. A positive value indicates that the top screw is extending away from the center of the wheel.

[0083] Step 3.6) Continue to lower the runner until the weight of the runner 1 falls entirely on the wedge plate 6.

[0084] Step 4), level, center measurement and fine adjustment:

[0085] Step 4.1) Measure and calculate the level of the runner according to step 1.3); Measure and calculate the center of the runner according to step 3.4);

[0087] Step 4.3) If the runner center is unqualified, use the bridge crane to provide an upward lifting force F to the runner, so that the runner has a remaining force of about 50T, pressing on the wedge plate 6;

[0088] Step 4.4) Wheel Center Adjustment: Turn the center adjustment screws 7-2 on each center adjustment device 7 to their shortest position. Install a single-acting, thin-profile hydraulic jack 8 between the end support device 7-3 and the runner 1. If the single-acting, thin-profile hydraulic jack 8 is too thick to fit between the end support device 7-3 and the runner 1, remove the center adjustment screws 7-2 and the end support device 7-3, leaving only the stopper 7-1. Install the single-acting, thin-profile jack 8 between the stopper 7-1 and the runner 1. Install a dial indicator near the stopper 7-1. Move the runner 1 according to the calculation method in Step 3.4) and use the dial indicator to monitor the runner center.
