HP & LP Bypass Operation and Protection

Image
HP & LP Bypass Operation and Protection Purpose Boiler operation independent of the turbine Minimum steam flow through SH & RH tubes during start-ups, low load operation & sudden unloading of unit Utilized or building up of steam parameters Avoiding the boiler trip on Reheat protection No steam flow through Boiler steam tubes will lead to starvation & thereby overheating and lead to premature failure of tubes  The capacity of HPLP bypass is 60% of full load turbine steam flow  Reheat Protection: RH protection (delay=10 sec) will act if TURBINE HP V/V & HPBP CLOSED [ either turbine HP stop v/v or HP CV in both HP line closed ] & [ both HP BP <2%]             OR TURBINE IP V/V & LP BP closed [ Either IP stop v/v or IP CV v/v in both IP line closed ] & [ Either LP BP stop v/v or LP BP C/V in both LP line is closed] OR   Generator ckt bkr open & [both HP BP closed OR both L...
