What does turbine tripping mean?
1 Answers
1. The meaning of tripping is as follows: First, start the AC (high voltage) electric oil pump, then engage the emergency trip device (safety device) (locally at the machine head, pull the control device handle outward by hand, and the emergency trip device flywheel ring is engaged), establish the safety oil pressure, and fully open the regulating steam valve. By opening the automatic main steam valve, new steam can enter the turbine, causing the turbine to rotate. 2. Extended information: A steam turbine, also known as a steam turbine engine, is a rotary steam power device. High-temperature and high-pressure steam passes through fixed nozzles to become accelerated airflow, which is then sprayed onto the blades, causing the rotor with blade rows to rotate while performing external work. Steam turbines are the main equipment in modern thermal power plants and are also used in metallurgical industries, chemical industries, and marine power plants.
