DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0012] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the utility model embodiment clearer, the technical scheme in the utility model embodiment will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the drawings in the embodiment, obviously, the embodiment expressed is a part of the utility model embodiments, not all the embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by the ordinary skilled in the art based on the embodiment in the utility model without creative labor belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
[0013] The oil baffle of the steam turbine is provided with an oil baffle ring 1, a needle valve 2, a ball valve 3, an electric heater 4, an electric cabinet 5, a DCS cabinet 6, an electric heater inlet and outlet temperature gauge 7, an electric heater internal temperature gauge 8 and a compressed air pipeline 9. The compressed air pipeline 9 is arranged between a compressed air source 10 and the inlet of the electric heater 4 and between the outlet of the electric heater 4 and the oil baffle ring 1. The compressed air pipeline 9 at the outlet of the electric heater 4 is divided into two branches and connected to the middle chamber of the oil baffle ring 1 at the front and rear positions of the bearing box. The ball valve 3 is arranged on the compressed air pipeline 9 at the inlet of the electric heater 4. The needle valve 2 is arranged on the compressed air pipeline 9 at the front and rear positions of the bearing box. The electric heater inlet and outlet temperature gauge 7 is arranged on the compressed air pipeline 9 at the inlet and outlet of the electric heater 4. The electric heater internal temperature gauge 8 is arranged in the middle of the electric heater 4. The electric heater inlet and outlet temperature gauge 7 and the electric heater internal temperature gauge 8 are connected to the input end of the electric cabinet 5. The output end of the electric cabinet 5 is connected to the needle valve 2, the ball valve 3 and the electric heater 4. The electric cabinet 5 is connected to the DCS cabinet 6.
[0014] The needle valve 2, the ball valve 3 and the compressed air pipeline 9 are DN25 in size and made of stainless steel. The needle valve 2 and the ball valve 3 are connected to the compressed air pipeline 9 by screwing.
[0015] The maximum output power of the electric heater 4 and the electric cabinet 5 is 5KW. The power supply is 220V mains.
[0016] The compressed air pipeline 9 is connected to the oil baffle ring 1 by screwing.
[0017] The pressure of the compressed air source 10 is 0.5MPa.
[0018] In actual application, the compressed air is sent into the middle chamber of the oil baffle ring 1. The compressed air diffuses from the toothed plate of the oil baffle ring and the shaft gap in the axial direction to prevent the oil fume and the ambient air from entering the oil baffle ring. The ball valve 3 and the needle valve 2 constitute a compressed air adjusting and isolating device. The ball valve 3 is closed to cut off the compressed air source. The opening of the needle valve 2 is adjusted to control the flow of the compressed air. In this way, the compressed air slightly leaks from the oil baffle ring 1 to achieve the effect of isolating the oil fume and the ambient air and to avoid unnecessary waste of the compressed air. The compressed air is heated by the electric heater 4 before entering the oil baffle ring 1. The temperature of the compressed air is measured by the electric heater inlet and outlet temperature gauge 7 and transmitted to the electric cabinet 5. The output power of the electric heater is controlled by the DCS cabinet 6 to stabilize the air temperature between 70-90℃ to avoid the dynamic friction between the rotor and the oil baffle ring caused by the shrinkage of the toothed plate due to the overcooling of the compressed air sent into the oil baffle ring. The electric heater internal temperature gauge 8 arranged in the middle of the electric heater 4 measures the internal temperature of the electric heater and transmits it to the electric cabinet 5. The output power of the electric heater is controlled by the DCS cabinet 6 to avoid the damage of the electric heater caused by overtemperature.
[0019] When the steam turbine is in normal operation, the ball valve 3 is in full open state, and the electric heater 4 is put into operation. The opening of the needle valve 2 is adjusted to have slight air overflow at the oil baffle 1, and the power of the electric heater 4 is adjusted to have the outlet temperature between 70-90℃.
[0020] When the steam turbine is in shutdown, the electric heater 4 is withdrawn. The ball valve 3 is closed after stopping the turning.
[0021] The utility model sends the compressed air of suitable temperature into the inside of oil baffle, uses the needle valve to adjust the air supply, makes the air slightly leak to the outside, so as to achieve the purpose of blocking the oil gas and the ambient air to enter the oil baffle, further prevents the production of carbon deposit, does not change the length of the steam turbine shaft system and the appearance size, and solves the problem of carbon deposit of oil baffle by reforming on the original bearing box.
