    phase angle on turbine

    If we have two probes on a turbine on one bearing and they are 90 degree apart now if the shaft is rotating in a pure ideal circular motion the phase angle between two readings is 90 degree , but if the shaft moves in elliptical motion or any other motion does the phase angle remains 90 or...

    Turbine curve

    I have a start up curve of steam turbine , from load 0 mega to 120 megawatt , the pressure at the inlet is constant so in this case the flow rate only is the factor that increases the load , then after 120 mw the pressure increases until the load reaches maximum , so 1. what affects the...

    Turbine control valve

    Is the sliding pressure operation is when the CV is limited to any set point or when the valve is only fully opened ?

    Turbine control valve

    The graph of the control valve of the turbine has opening vs flow rate , so what if we increase flow rate from boiler at a fixed opening of valve will the pressure upstream valve increase ? Any other things will occur ?

    Understand a vibration graph of steam turbine

    "I know that each measuring sensor on turbine reads different frequencies and combine them to one frequency ." this means that on each bearing I have 2 probes in different axis , each measures a reading and then combine the readings of two into one graph which is time vs displacement , as I saw...

    Understand a vibration graph of steam turbine

    The experts came and they did there analysis and I was watching the curves on their computer and they were focusing and I didn't want to disturb them of such a question as all I need to know is what they represent not their physical meaning , The image is not clear as it is from the net and the...

    Understand a vibration graph of steam turbine

    There was a problem with a steam turbine and some vibration expert study it using a software calling vibro sight . A graph is called trend analysis and it is between time on x- axis and displacement on y-axis. The displacement starts from 0 , 10 , 20 , 30 , 40 , 50 and 60 and at each...

    Turbine vibration , phase angle meaning

    we are measuring vibrations on steam turbine on bearing 1 and bearing 3 . we found that amplitude of bearing 1 is slightly changing but at a same phase angle which is 262 degree . Also the amplitude of bearing 2 is slightly changing but at same phase angle which is 162 degree . I understand...

    API 650 statment

    mk3223 , what do you mean by " one " I don't get it ?
  11. Adam001

    API 650 statment

    In API 650 standard , item 5.2.1 C) , the design internal pressure shall not exceed 18 kpa , and since atmospheric pressure is 100 kpa so does this statement means that internal pressure shall not exceed 118 kpa ? also the external pressure shall not be less than 100.25 kpa ?

    condenser pressure

    Thank you for replying but what if I don't have sufficient cooling ? I like to hear new info

    condenser pressure

    In condenser of power plants , the vacuum is created due to condensation , now if temperature change in the condenser , the pressure will change to be the saturation pressure at the new temperature , so as I understand the temperature controls the pressure in the condenser not vice versa is that...

    pipe material

    we have a control valve at which water enters at temperature 140 c and pressure 10 bars , after the control valve causes pressure drop flashing occurs in a pipe that is 2 meters long , the pipe material is of class C3D (carbon steel)of 100 mm so do we leave the pipe as it is short or upgrade the...

    API 650

    ok thank you but what is the area in item 5.10.2.6 (5) and item F.5.1 ?

    API 650

    In API 650 item 5.1.5.9 e , there is "Roof-to-shell connection details per Figure F.2 are permissible provided that the design effective area (crosshatched section) is greater than or equal to the design effective area provided by the minimum top angle size listed above " , I know how to...

    pressure vessel interanl pressure

    XL83NL , I read the code and " P " is the internal design pressure in UG-27 , some one told me that I use the pressure difference so it will not vary if it is bara or barg is that right ?
  20. Adam001

    pressure vessel interanl pressure

    Stephan max , or I can use bara and subtract it from external pressue the same right ?
