A Comparison of Steam Turbine Control Valve Geometries and Their Dynamic Behavior at Part Load

A Comparison of Steam Turbine Control Valve Geometries and Their Dynamic Behavior at Part Load

A growing significance of flexible steam turbine operation challenges the control of turbines, as part load operation using control valves can be accompanied by highly unsteady flow conditions. The increased dynamic load induced by pressure forces can reduce the reliable operating range, weaken the...
