If these parameters do not stay within appropriate ranges, a power plant will suffer from issues with safety, performance, and efficiency. WIKA USA has the ability to provide instrumentation to monitor barometric pressure, temperature and flow of exhaust gas, and much more.<\/p>\n<p><\/strong>In power plants, safe operations and efficiency are directly linked to business sustainability, financial performance, and long-term feasibility. That\u2019s why flow measurement, temperature measurement, and pressure measurement are so important. Turbines work best when these three parameters are maintained within certain ranges \u2013 some of which are quite narrow.<\/p>\n<h2>Monitoring for Safety and Efficiency<\/h2>\n<p>Temperature is a determining factor in turbine safety and efficiency. Increases in the turbine inlet improve the engine\u2019s efficiency: the turbine can produce the same amount of power with less fuel, or produce more power with the same amount of fuel. Components, however, face very demanding temperature conditions, in particular at the high pressure compressor exit and at the high pressure turbine inlet. If temperatures get too hot, chances of compressor blade failure and serious component damage increase dramatically.<\/p>\n<p>Another important element is flow nozzle measurement. Measurements at the flow nozzle are critical because readings are plugged directly into efficiency calculations in the turbine\u2019s control system. During plant commissioning and routine operations, operators rely on flow nozzle measurements to validate performance and verify the efficiency of the turbine.<\/p>\n<p>The key to plant safety and performance is the ability to accurately measure and track temperature, pressure, and flow. Information collected at specific measuring points can be used to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Avoid metallurgical failures \u2014\u00a0<\/strong>Temperatures need to be maintained below the vessel\u2019s melting point in order to avoid metallurgical failure. Too-high temperatures can also lead to creep deformation in the rotating blades.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Determine efficiency and performance \u2014\u00a0<\/strong>Performance engineers can calculate the efficiency of a compressor or turbine if they know the inlet and exit temperatures, as well as the flow rate at the nozzle. When a gas turbine exhaust is used as heat input to a steam cycle, engineers can also estimate the performance of the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) by using\u00a0the temperature and flow\u00a0measurement of the gas turbine exhaust.<strong style=\"font-size: 1rem\">\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Detect inefficiencies \u2014\u00a0<\/strong>High exhaust temperatures and flow changes can be symptoms of a compressor or turbine that is not operating as it should. If a flow measurement device picks up irregularities, the plant operator can perform a diagnostic to identify the underlying causes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Calculate residual life \u2014\u00a0<\/strong>By tracking temperatures over time, engineers can see the temperature history of a component, such as a <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.wika.com\/us\/\/products\/temperature-products\/furnace-tube-syngas-maximize-tube-life\/\">furnace tube<\/a>. This history allows them to calculate how much life the component has left and to plan maintenance and replacements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What and Where to Monitor<\/h2>\n<p>In<span>\u00a0<\/span><strong>steam turbines<\/strong>, the following parameters are critical and are continuously monitored:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Barometric pressure<\/li>\n<li>Steam and steam condensate\u2019s flow rate, temperature, and pressure on:\n<ul>\n<li>The cold reheat<\/li>\n<li>The high pressure throttle<\/li>\n<li>The hot reheat<\/li>\n<li>Low pressure induction sections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Exhaust pressure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Similarly, in<span>\u00a0<\/span><strong>gas turbines<\/strong>, the critical parameters routinely checked include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Temperature and flow of the exhaust gas<\/li>\n<li>Pressure and temperature of ambient air<\/li>\n<li>Temperature at the compressor inlet<\/li>\n<li>Pressure and temperature of gas fuel<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>High-Quality Instruments for Temperature, Pressure, and Flow Measurement<\/h2>\n<p>WIKA USA\u2019s lines of pressure, temperature, and flow measurement instrumentation are robust and reliable \u2013 providing years of accurate information to keep your turbines running safety, smoothly and efficiently.<\/p>\n<p>WIKA\u2019s<span>\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/flc_fn_fln_flc_fn_pip_flc_fn_vn.WIKA\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Venturi and flow nozzles<\/a>are optimal for steam flow measurement.
