Turbine pressure
survey
11 June 2014 PMI Revision 00 2
Pressure survey
Objective
It gives a very useful indication of the internal
condition of a turbine.
Method
During acceptance test pressure at each tapping
point at full load is recoded and plotted on a
graph.
It can be compared at later date. If there is no
deterioration, then the slope at full load will
remain unchanged.

11 June 2014 PMI Revision 00 8
Observation
If on a st. line but above the optimum line for a
particular load indicates
General wear throughout.
Worn diaphragm seals/ blade tip seals.
If on a st. line but having kink in the pressure line, it
indicates
Restriction to flow.
If silica deposition is there then LP inlet pr.will show
a high trend.
