Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of static blade diaphragms, in particular to a static blade diaphragm of an impulse stage steam turbine. The utility model also relates to a manufacturing tooling for the static blade diaphragm of an impulse stage steam turbine. Background Art

[0002] The steam turbine is known as the "crown of manufacturing". The steam turbine is not only a key equipment in the energy and power industry, but also a very important equipment for China's transformation and development. Moreover, the manufacturing of steam turbines is a systematic project with quite high technical content and quality requirements.

[0003] The flow passage part of the steam turbine includes important components such as a rotor, moving blades, and a static blade diaphragm. The static blade diaphragm includes an outer ring and a shroud ring. Between the outer ring and the shroud ring are static blades with accurate dimensions and precise installation. The manufacturing precision of the static blade diaphragm directly affects the thermal efficiency of the steam turbine unit. And the static blade diaphragm bears the load generated by the pressure difference during operation. Under the action of high-temperature and high-pressure steam, there are situations of easy deformation, easy corrosion, and wear. The original processing scheme is to separately process the inner and outer ring bodies, and then determine the installation position of the static blades by means of scribing. This method has poor positioning accuracy and is difficult to control the SA throat width dimension between the blades. The SA throat width is an important blade design parameter and plays a crucial role in blade design, having an important impact on aspects such as the rotational speed, efficiency, and life of the steam turbine. If there is a deviation in the blade installation position, it may also cause uneven gaps to occur between the static blades and the ring body before welding. During the welding of the diaphragm, the gaps will cause welding deformation and other situations.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the technical solution of the utility model is to adopt combined processing of the outer ring and the shroud ring, and through a positioning tooling, improve the installation and positioning accuracy before welding the static blades and the ring body; the flow passage surface is processed with a graphene coating, so that the diaphragm has the characteristics of being ultra-thin, ultra-hard, high-temperature oxidation-resistant, corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant, and has a thermal barrier effect. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to propose an assembly tooling for the static blade diaphragm of an impulse stage steam turbine. The static blades of the impulse stage steam turbine are assembled and welded by bridging between the outer ring body and the shroud body installation ring. After bridging, finish machining of the flow passage surface is carried out to accurately control the SA throat width dimension between the blades, so that this static blade diaphragm has an accurate steam outlet direction, and the flow passage throat area is controlled within a very small error range, which can meet the accuracy requirements.

[0006] The technical solution of the present utility model is an assembly tooling for the stationary blade diaphragm of an impulse-stage steam turbine. The stationary blades of the impulse-stage steam turbine are formed by butt-welding the stationary blades of the impulse-stage steam turbine between the inner ring formed by the outer ring body and the shroud body mounting ring, thereby forming the stationary blade diaphragm of the impulse-stage steam turbine; the stationary blades of the impulse-stage steam turbine are fixed by butt-welding the bridging plates between the outer ring body and the shroud body mounting ring. The stationary blades are positioned within the blade flow passage 4 between the outer ring body and the shroud body mounting ring through the tooling. The positioning tooling includes a base 5, which is fan-shaped and embedded in and contacts between the outer ring body and the shroud body. The fan-shaped base can move on the circular track formed between the outer ring body and the shroud body. A pair of fixed short pins 7 and mounting holes, a pair of movable short pins 6 and mounting holes, and a pair of fixed long pins 9 and mounting holes are provided on the base 5. The installation position of one stationary blade 3 is determined by two fixed short pins 7, two fixed long pins 9, and the pin pitch between the fixed short pin 7 and the two fixed long pins. After the installation of the first stationary blade is completed, the relative positions of the adjacent stationary blades are determined by two movable short pins 6 and an additional SA throat width gauge. The distance between adjacent stationary blades 3 is calibrated by the SA throat width gauge 8 provided; the SA throat width 8 is the minimum width of the passage between adjacent stationary blades 3.

[0007] The holes where the fixed short pins 7, fixed long pins 9, and movable short pins 6 are installed on the tooling are designed and processed according to the blade spacing of the diaphragm to ensure the blade positioning accuracy.

[0008] Beneficial effects: The stationary blades of the impulse-stage steam turbine are butt-welded by the bridging plates between the outer ring body and the shroud body. After the bridging plates, finish machining of the flow passage surface is carried out, and the stationary blades themselves are also machined. Then, through the high-precision tooling of the present utility model, the stationary blades are accurately fixed in the flow passage, accurately controlling the SA throat width size between the blades, enabling the stationary blade diaphragm to have an accurate steam outlet direction, and controlling the throat area of the flow passage within a very small error range, which can meet the accuracy requirements.
