Best Answer

It is oil used to lubricate the bearings on the turbine. Typically designated AW32 oil, it is a high purity clear amber 300 ssu viscosity mineral oil with anti-wear additives.

It is also used to operate the turbine's controls, such as the governor, trip mechanisms and admission valves.

Is jacking oil required when stopping steam turbines?

jacking oil is not required when stopping the steam turbine


How is energy produce from crude oil?

Energy is produced from oil (or any other fossil fuel) by a simple process. First, they burn the oil to heat a tub of water. The water turns into steam, which travels through pipes to reach a turbine. The turbine is hooked up to a generator. When the steam reaches the turbine, it turns the blades, which sends an electric current to the generator. This generates electricity.


Why you maintain gland steam temp in steam turbine power plant?

gland steam temp should be nearer to less than turbine lub. oil flash point.


How to design a steam turbine?

-Check turbo generator lube oil sump level and drain it for water. Replenish it if level is less than normal. -Start the lube oil priming pump from the local station and check the lube oil pressure. Put the priming pump on auto. -Check and fill up the Turbine Generator vacuum pump operating water tank to normal level. -Check vacuum condenser condensate level from the condensate pump. Put the pump on auto so that the level is maintained all the time. -Operate the steam drain valve to drain any condensed water from the steam line to avoid excessive hammering and vibration while starting turbo generator. -Open the main steam inlet valve for turbo generator. -Adjust the gland steam pressure to normal level. -Check and open the sea water valves for vacuum pump cooler, T/G lube oil cooler and vacuum condenser are opened. -Start the vacuum pump and bring up the vacuum in the condenser. -Open condensate pump valves and switch on the pump. -Check whether the condensate vacuum, gland steam pressure, steam inlet pressure, and lube oil pressure are normal. -Start turbo generator from the local station and close the drain in the steam line. -Check first and second stage steam pressure. -Check condenser vacuum and water level. -Check lube oil pressure and vibration levels. -Check turbo generator speed, voltage, frequency, vacuum, condenser level and other parameters. -Give control to remote station from the local control and take the TG on load.
