  • Patent number: 11187103
    Abstract: A steam turbine power generation facility and an operation method of such facility not only overcome the thermal elongation difference between a revolving body and a stationary body of a turbine so as to shorten start-up time but also suppress the efficiency of such facility from deterioration. The steam turbine power generation facility includes a boiler to generate steam; a high-pressure turbine into which the steam generated by the boiler flows; an intermediate-pressure turbine into which steam worked at the high-pressure turbine flows; and a low-pressure turbine into which steam worked at the intermediate-pressure turbine flows, in which the high-pressure turbine and the intermediate-pressure turbine are respectively provided with a heating section which is formed by communicating through the high-pressure turbine and the intermediate-pressure turbine, and further includes a pipe to make the steam worked at the high-pressure turbine flow into the heating section.

  • Publication number: 20140030065
    Abstract: The present invention is a steam turbine comprising a turbine stage having a stationary blade and a moving blade provided on the downstream side of the stationary blade in a working fluid flow direction, wherein the stationary blade is formed in a hollow blade shape by deformation processing a metal plate, and wherein a slit to guide liquid droplets deposited on a blade wall surface to the inside of the blade is formed in the blade wall by overlaying an airfoil suction-side metal plate and an airfoil pressure-side metal plate with a gap therebetween in a blade tail part of the stationary blade.
