STEAM POWER PLANT
Parameters influencing the efficiency of
Rankine cycle:

*Increase the boiler pressure

*Decreasing condenser pressure

*super heating of steam

ROTOR:
Rotor: Consists of shaft and disk assemblies with
buckets. The shaft extends beyond the casing through
the bearing cases. One end of the shaft is used for
coupling to the driven pump. The other end of the shaft
serves the speed governor and the over speed trip
system.
ROTOR ASSEMBLY:

The turbine rotor assembly consists of the turbine shaft

and the attached moving blade. The rotor assembly
absorbs energy from working fluid (steam, gas, water
etc) and converts that energy into mechanical energy.
ROTOR MATERIALS:

Nickel and Chromium based alloys are

used for high temperature.The rotors or
discs(consisting of shafts )are used to handle
highest temperature, so steam turbine rotor
material consisting of Nickel ,Chromium,
Molybdenum,Vanadium based alloys.
As per BHEL,
For 1MW=1crore

For 50 to 100MW=70 to 130bar

For 100 to 200MW=130 to 170bar

For 200 to 300MW=170 to 230bar

More than 300MW up to 270 bar

TURBINE BLADES:

The energy conversion takes place through the

turbine blades. A turbine consists of alternate rows of
blades. This blades convert the chemical or thermal
energy of working fluid into kinetic energy and then from
kinetic energy to mechanical energy as rotation of the
shaft.
Types of blade profiles
Types of blade profiles:

F-type blades
3DS blades
Single T-root
Double T- root
Guide blades
Manufacturing of blade process
Raw material
Cutting to bar size
Size milling
Size grinding
Rhomboidal milling , grinding
Blade length cutting
Root milling
Width milling
Back profile milling
Canal profile milling
Taper milling
Fitting and polishing Taper grinding
CONCLUSION:

We have done a mini project on Study of Steam

Turbine Rotor and Blades
