Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of heat preservation of low-pressure cylinder shaft seal pipes, and in particular relates to a protective device for preventing low-pressure shaft seal temperature of a steam turbine. Background Art

[0002] After the steam from the low-pressure cylinder shaft seal main pipe is cooled by water spraying in the desuperheater, it is supplied to the low-pressure shaft seal steam chamber through four low-pressure shaft seal pipelines that pass through the condenser. The shaft seal steam in the condenser is easily cooled; because the steam inside the pipeline is cooled by the low-temperature exhaust steam when flowing through the exhaust area, the shaft seal air pipe is cooled down during normal operation or startup of the unit; if the turbine shaft seal steam temperature is lower than the overall temperature of the turbine, a large amount of water vapor will be generated, which will easily cause certain thermal stresses in the parts of each part of the turbine. In this case, relatively large friction is likely to occur between the parts in the turbine, thus affecting the service life of the turbine.

[0003] If the temperature of the shaft seal air pipe is too low during the startup of the unit, it will cause a mismatch with the temperature of the cylinder, which may easily cause excessive expansion difference during the turbine run-up process. In addition, too low shaft seal temperature can easily cause steam to carry water, leading to water hammer in the turbine, which seriously threatens the safe operation of the unit. The current insulation solution for the low-pressure cylinder shaft seal air pipe is to weld a sleeve on the low-pressure cylinder shaft seal air pipe. When the low-pressure cylinder shaft seal air pipe is damaged and needs to be repaired, the sleeve needs to be removed, which may easily cause further damage to the shaft seal air pipe.

[0004] In view of the above problems, a protective device is urgently needed to prevent the low-pressure shaft seal temperature of the steam turbine from being low, which is used to insulate the shaft seal air pipe and drain the condensate, and can be disassembled when the shaft seal air pipe needs maintenance.
