IntroductionBHEL is the largest engineering and manufacturing enterprise in

India in the energy related infrastructure sector today. BHEL was

established more than 40 years ago when its first plant was setup in

Bhopal ushering in the indigenous Heavy Electrical Equipment

Industry in India a dream which has been more than realized with a

well recognized track record of performance it has been earning

profits continuously since1971-72.BHEL caters to core sectors of

the Indian Economy viz., Power Generation's & Transmission,

Industry, Transportation, Telecommunication, Renewable Energy

Defence etc. The wide network of BHEL's 14 manufacturing

division, four power Heavy Electricals Limited (B.H.E.L.) is the

largest engineering and manufacturing enterprise in India.

STEAM TURBINE

A steam turbine works on the principle of conversion of High pressure & temperature steam into high Kinetic energy , thereby giving torque to a moving rotor.

Types of steam turbine

1.High pressure turbine (H.P. Turbine)

2.Intermediate pressure turbine (I.P. Turbine)

3.Low pressure turbine (L.P. Turbine)

High pressure turbine (H.P. Turbine)

High pressure and temperature fluid at the inlet of the turbine exit as lower pressure and temperature fluid. The difference is energy converted by the turbine to mechanical rotational energy, less any aerodynamic and mechanical in efficiencies incurred in the process. Since the fluid is at a lower pressure at the exit of the turbine than at the inlet, it is common to say the fluid has been “expanded” across the turbine.

HIGH PRESSURE TURBINE

H.P turbine blades

• A turbine blade is the individual component which makes up the turbine section of a gas turbine. The blades are responsible for extracting energy from the high temperature, high pressure gas produced by the combustor

ADVANTAGES OF H.P TURBINE BLADE • Ability to utilize high pressure and high

temperature steam.

• High efficiency.

• High rotational speed.

• High capacity/weight ratio.

• Smooth, nearly vibration-free operation.

• No internal lubrication.

• Oil free exhausts steam.

Low Pressure Turbine

• LP turbine is designed to be a dual flow turbine. Steam enters the center of the turbine from the crossover pipe and flows across the reaction blading in two opposite directions. This configuration reduces axial thrust on the turbine and allows for a smaller turbine installation. On ships where space is not a concern, a single flow turbine is used.

Low Pressure Turbine

Low Pressure Turbine blade

Titanium alloys offer high strength tointermediate temperatures at a density almosthalf that of steel and nickel-based superalloys.As a result, they have been adopted widely inthe fan and compressor stages of the gasturbine for both disc and blade applications..

• LP blade is larger than HP & IP.

INTERMEDIATE PRESSURE TURBINE

• Intermediate pressure turbine having more

pressure then L.P turbine and lass than the high

pressure turbine(H.P) . Its blade is larger than

high pressure turbine.

Blade of intermediate pressure turbine

• The size of blades of I.P steam turbine is larger than H.P steam turbine , but smaller than L.P steam turbine.

Control Valves

• Steam inlet valves perform one of twofunctions, protection or control.

• Steam inlet control valves regulate the flowand/or the pressure of steam through theturbine. Their position, from closed to fullyopen, is determined by the turbine electroniccontrolled.

Control Valve

Cutting method

• Plasma cutting:- Inert gas is blown at high speedout of a nozzle; at the same time an electrical arcis formed through that gas from the nozzle to thesurface being cut, turning some of that gasto plasma.

• CNC cutting machine:-Based on CNC programs.

• Flame cutting:-A common propane/air flame burns at about 2,000 °C (3,630 °F), a propane/oxygen flame burns at about 2,500 °C (4,530 °F), and an acetylene/oxygen flame burns at about 3,500 °C (6,330 °F).

Conclusion

• Summer Training gives the idea of ‘general awareness in steam turbine manufacturing’, & its process. Its provides practical idea to manufacturing several components of turbine.
