Preface
The start-up mode described in this manual is proposed according to the structural features of main body of 300MW steam turbine made by our factory and by referring to the technical characteristics of imported digital electro-hydraulic control system (DEH) for HP hydraulic oil, which applies to our new generation of full electronic control type of 300MW steam turbine. There are three kinds of start-up operation modes for the steam turbine, namely "Self-Starting Mode", "Operator Automatic Mode" and "Manual Mode". The operating personnel may choose one o f them according to the actual conditions. Under " Self-Starting Mode ", the ATS of DEH control system is under " Control State ". The ATS controls the steam turbine based on the state of assembling unit to automatically complete the start-up process including turbine rolling, raising speed, synchronous incorporating in power network, picking up initial load. The detailed operational and monitoring requirements about the " Self-Starting Mode " can be found in the " Operation Instruction for Digital Electro-Hydraulic Control System (DEH) for HP Hydraulic Oil " (provided by the supplier of DEH). Under " Operator Automatic Mode", the ATS of DEH control system is under “Monitoring Mode” instead of participating in controlling. The operator manually sets the target values and rates of change for the speed or load on the operation board according to the condition of main body of steam turbine and the start-up operation pro ce du re pr ov id ed in th e ma nu al . Th e ba sic co nt ro l sy st em of DE H au to mati ca ll y completes the operations of turbine rolling, raising speed, synchronization and pic kin g up th e lo ad ac co rd in g to the target values and rates of change set by the operator. The DEH system automatically monitors the start-up parameters through the CRT display, sends out the signal "Alarm" or " Shutoff" when exceeding the limits, guides the operator and pri nt s th e cu rren t dat a an d hi st or ic al da ta fo r th e op er at or to st ud y an d an al yze .

Start-up and Operational Manual for Steam Turbine
(WE) D300N-000106ASM
Under “Manual Mode”, the valve position multi-functional processing of DEH control system controls the set according to the button of “VALVE LOWER” or “VALVE RAISE” on the operation board controlled by the operator. Under this operation condition, the set shall be controlled by skilled operating personnel according to relevant limits and operating procedures in the manual as well as relevant rules of power plant. The operator shall closely monitor various changes of par am et er s displ ay ed on th e CRT an d al ar m si gna ls to en su re th e sa fe op er at io n of set. The procedures for start-up and shutdown specified in this manual only apply to “Operator Automatic Mode” (i.e. ATS monitoring state). The user shall compile the site operation regulations according to the manual and correct them during the actual operation based on the accumulated operating experience. However, each control par ame te r in th e st ar t- up ope ra ti on sh all fo ll ow th e re qu ir em ent in th e ma nua l. Fo r a new machine, the initial start-up shall properly reduce the rates of raising speed and increasing load. Stable operating time shall be extended properly for each load point. When a new machine is put into operation, the evenness between the contact surfaces and the glidability between the glide surfaces of various parts need certain operating time to improve. Therefore, when a new machine is put into operation, it must experience at least 6 months operation under the complete cycle mode until the set reaches the stable state. Refer to the technical documentation, drawings and manuals supplied with the machine by us for relevant technical data, structural features, etc. about the steam turbine (refer to “Delivery List”). The start-up state of steam turbine is determined by the metal temperature of inner wall (stage adjusting place) of upper half of HP inner casing. Specifically as follows: Start-up under cold state: ≤ 15 0 ℃ Start-up under warm state: 150 ℃ ~ 30 0 ℃ Start-up under hot state: 300 ℃ ~ 40 0 ℃ 2
Start-up and Operational Manual for Steam Turbine
(WE) D300N-000106ASM
Start-up under extremely hot state: ≥ 40 0 ℃ The set has two operating modes: IP casing start-up as well as HP and IP casing combined start-up. It is recommended that the IP casing start-up be considered first. If the boiler and by-pass system are not adaptable, it is possible to only use the HP and IP casing combined start-up; if the IP casing start-up is adopted, the user needs to buy th e VV val ve an d by -p as s sy st em re qui re d by th e IP ca si ng st ar t- up . When the new machine is going to perform the load rejection test, the manufacturer shall be notified. The test requirements shall be discussed by the manufacturer and u ser jointly. The steam pressure in the manual is absolute pressure and the oil pressure is gauge pressure. The vacuum is converted according to the standard atmosphere, i.e.: Vacuum Mercury Column (mmHg)=760(mmHg)-Exhaust Absolute Pressure (MPa)×7500(mmHg/MPa) The user shall make corrections to the following formula according to local sea level height and the climate condition at that time: Vacuum

2 Start-up with IP Casing (IP)
Start-up with the IP casing is to utilize the reheat steam that has higher temperature and bigger flow to raise the temperature of IP casing more rapidly. This makes the IP exhaust temperature exceed the fragility transforming temperature of rotor so as to avoid the fracture of rotating shaft due to fragility, reduce the heat impact of HP casing, prevent the exhaust temperature of HP casing from exceeding the limit, realize the matching between the temperature of main steam and reheat steam as well as the metal temperature at the HP control stage and IP Stage 1, and achieve the purpose of shortening the start-up time and reducing the life loss of set. Start-up with the IP casing has better flexibility and is in favor of peaking operation in two shifts. For start-up with the IP casing, it is required that the by-pass capacity shall meet the requirement of ≥ 35%MCR and the by-pass system shall be engaged normally. It is bes t to se t it un de r th e au to ma tic st at e.

Afterwards, the by-pass valve closes gradually. 9
Switching HP and IP casings a.
Before switching the HP and IP casings, pay attention to the matching of
steam temperature and metal temperature of main steam after the work done by the HP control stage. Refer to (2) in Item m of Section 3-1 for the calculation method; Under normal condition, the followings shall be controlled:
b.
Main Steam:
5.88MPa
400~ 43 0 ℃
Reheat Steam:
0.686MPa
350~ 380 ℃
Wh en it is ch an ge d fr om th e so le stea m ad missio n th roug h th e HP ca sing to
the combined steam admission through the HP and IP casings, the parameters and flows of main steam and reheat steam shall be kept stable basically. c.
When the by-pass valve is fully closed, (at this time, the load is about
40MW) the TBS system sends signals to the DEH to maintain the load; d.
When the by-pass is fully closed, perform warming up at low load. Monitor
the metal temperature of HP exhaust lower half inner wall. It shall reach 170 ℃ . Adjust the opening of manual valve in the back of ventilator valve to control the metal temperature of HP exhaust lower h alf inner wall within 220--250℃ for 30min; When all the above items are completed, the operator presses the "VALVE CHANGE" button to change the valves. The HP control valve gradually opens in the mode of single valve. After about 1 min, the HP and IP control valves start to enter into proportional relationship and the change is over by then ; e.
After the change is over, ( at the rate of
3MW/min) increase the load to 2-1-7

(WE) D300N-000106ASM
42MW and warm up for 30min; f.
Check the following items during the change over period:
(1) The ventilator valve (VV valve) is closed; (2) The HP exhaust non-return valve opens a utomatically. g.
When the change is over, engage the interlayer heating device based on the
concrete situation of HP casing temperature and expansion difference. h.
When warming up is completed, the DEH system sends signals to the TBS
and the set starts to increase load. With the increase of load, the HP by-pass closes gradually. When the load reaches the downslide point, the HP by-pass valve releases the auto control of pressure feedback. 10
Increase Load to Target Value a.
When the load reaches the downslide point, the DEH system sends signals
to the CCS system. The set starts to slide the parameters and increase the load along with the boiler. b.
Th e set ge ts to th e do wn slid e poin t wh en th e load is ab ou t 10 5M W. At th is
time, the HP control valve approachs to 90% rated valve position. The DEH control system sends signals to the CCS system. The set starts to increase the load along with the pressure increase of boiler. At this time, the DEH control system does not par ticip at e in th e ad ju st me nt (i .e . no t par ti ci pat e in th e lo ad co ntrol) un ti l th e lo ad approachs to 90% ECR. c
Stop using the heating system of cylinder interlayer at any time according to
Section 7-2. d.

Varying Duty Operation
Operating Mode The set can operate in two modes: constant pressure and constant-slide-constant
pre ssur e. During peaking operation, the operating mode of constant-slide-constant is recommended, i.e. adopt the operating mode of constant pressure when the sets runs at more than 90% rated load; adopt the operating mode of slide operation when the sets runs between 90%-40% rated load; adopt the operating mode of constant pressure when the sets runs under 40% rated load. This operating mode can improve the heat economical efficiency, reduce the temperature difference of steam admission part and temperature change when the load changes, thus reduce the fatigue damage of low per io di city. When the set adopts the operating mode of nozzle adjustment (i.e. sequential valves), if the load reaches 90% rated load, No.I and II control valves are fully opened and No.III control valve is slightly opened. When the set runs between 90 % ~ 40 % , the boiler enters into the operation of slide pressure. The main steam

When the load is smaller than 40% rated load, the set enters the operation of constant pressure. In this phase, the HP control valve is used to change the load. When the load is smaller than 30% rated load, the IP control valve par ti ci pat es in th e lo ad ad ju st me nt. Refer to Fig. 4-2-1 for the variable curve of slide pressure operation.

5 Shutdowns
The set shutdown includes slide parameter shutdown, rated parameter shutdown and emergency shutdown. Slide parameter shutdown: mainly to reduce the cylinder metal temperature after shutdown to a lower temperature level. Normally it applies to light repair, heavy repair and other planned shutdown. Rated parameter shutdown: mainly to enable timely start-up after short time trouble-shooting. Therefore, it is desired to maintain a higher temperature level for the cylinder metal to shorten the star-up time. Emergency Shutdown: mainly applies to the accidents, dangers and sudden nature disasters. Preparations before the slide and rated parameter shutdown: a.
Test AC and DC lubricant pumps, jacking oil pump and turning gear motor.
All shall work properly; b.

5-1 Slide Parameter Shutdown
The steam turbine follows the boiler to slide the pressure to reduce the load according to the slide pressure curve. In the meanwhile, the speed governing port opens gradually and fully. During the load decrease period, the operator shall monitor the metal temperature after the control stage of HP inner casing and metal temperature change gradient of steam admission area of IP casing. Under the “Manual” and “Operator Auto” states, the limited value for the load decrease rate is given by the operation board. Refer to the operating procedures of set start-up for the operating modes. a.
Limitations for the reduction of temperature, pressure and load according to
the slide parameter shutdown curve of boiler descending speed of main and rehe at steam temperature: less than 1℃ /min; descending speed of main and reheat steam pressure: less than 0.098MPa/min; degree of superheating of main and reheat steam: more than 50℃ ; b. des ce nd in g sp ee d of cy li nd er me ta l te mp er at ure : no t ex ce ed in g 1℃ /min; c. When the main steam temperature descends 30 ℃ or so, the state shall be kept for 5 ~ 10min before further temperature reduction. The purpose is to control the temperature difference between the main and reheat steam as well as the heat expansion and expansion difference of steam turbine; d.
When the steam temperature after the control stage is 30℃ lower than the
metal temperature of flange inner wall at the control stage of HP inner casing, the reduction of temperature shall be paused; e.
Attention shall be paid to the change of expansion difference of HIP casing
during the load reduction process. When the negative expansion difference reaches -1mm, stop reducing the load. If the negative expansion difference continues to increase and no effect is shown by taking measures, which affects the safety of set, the load shall be rapidly reduced to zero;

Rated Parameter Shutdown
The rated parameter shutdown normally applies to temporary shutdown. If it is pla nn ed to re pa ir th e se t aft er sh utd own , it is be nef ic ia l to ad op t th e no zzl e go ver ni ng mode. Because the metal temperature is lower if the set is shut down with this mode, the cooling time can be shortened. For the peaking set whose shutdown time only has a few hours or other short temporary shutdown, in order to have higher metal temperature after shutdown to facilitate quick re-start, normally the throttle governing mode is adopted. Based on different shutdown purposes, it is possible to select the valve management mode on the operation board—single valve control or sequential valve control (i.e. throttle governing or nozzle governing). a.

When the expansion difference reaches –1mm, stop reducing the load and keep stable operation. If the negative expansion difference continues to increase and the measures taken are non-effective, which affect the set safety, the load shall be rapidly reduced to zero; or the set shall be disengaged and shut down; d.

Water Spray of LP Casing of Steam Turbine
Composition, Function and Control The spray system consists of atomization sprayer, electric valve, manual throttle
valve, manual stop valve, sieve, pressure gauge and steel tube. Refer to “ Spray Device System Diagram” for the detailed composition. During the initial start-up, in order to prevent the steam condenser system from not timely taking the exhaust steam of LP casing and heat of LP by-pass steam, which causes the temperature rise of exhaust temperature of LP casing, as well as the exhaust temperature rise of LP casing due to the blast of LP stage when the set has low load and high back pressure, which impacts the movable blades of last several stages of LP casing and LP through flow, the water spray system of LP casing is built. The control can be manual and auto: 1.1 Auto Control: When the exhaust temperature at any point before or after the LP casing equals or is more than 80 ℃ , the water spray is engaged. When the temperature of each point bef ore or af te r eq ual s or is le ss th an 65℃ , stop the water spray. 1.2 Manual Control When the spray control is under the manual control state, the temperature does not control the spray. The operator can start or stop the spray system based on the concrete situation. No te : Fo r th e au to or ma nua l co nt ro l, th e st ar t or st op of wa te r sp ra y shall be done at the front and rear sides at the same time.

Emergency Discharge System
Composition, Function and Control The system consists of emergency blowdown valve, electromagnetic control
ventilator valve and steel tube. Refer to “Diagram of Auxiliary System of Steam Turbine Proper” for details. When the set rejects the load, in order to prevent the residual steam in the HP casing and HP steam guiding pipe from fleeing into the IP and LP casings from the HIP gland seal gap and impacts the set, the BDV is installed. When the gland seal teeth wear and the gap becomes bigger, the overspeed possibility will increase. When the set trips, the BDV opens rapidly and directly guide the residual steam at the HIP gland seal to the steam condenser to prevent the overspeed of set. The BDV open and close are controlled by the oil servo motor stroke of IP control valve: When the oil servo motor stroke of IP control valve is
≥ 30mm,
the BDV is
closed. When the oil servo motor stroke of IP control valve is <30mm, the BDV is opened. 2
Test Before Start-up a )Check and confirm that the compressed air enters into the upp er part of piston
of BDV when the electromagnetic control ventilator valve excitates. The piston overcomes the downward shift of spring force to close the valve. When the electromagnetic control ventilator valve dis-excitates, the upper part of piston of BDV connects with the exhausted air to release the air pressure. Under the action of spring force, the piston moves upward to open the valve. b ) The controlling compressed air pressure shall be within 0.4 ~ 0.7MPa to ensure the close of BDV.
