    HP LP Bypass System (Turbine)

    Uploaded by

    The document describes an HP-LP bypass system. The system includes HP and LP bypass valves and spray valves that divert steam from the boiler to the re-heater or condenser during startup or trips to maintain circulation. This allows running the boiler without the turbine. The system avoids prolonged venting of safety valves and ensures re-heater protection during startup. It also allows the unit to run on house load if the grid cannot accept power. The electro-hydraulic actuating system uses hydraulic pressure to operate the valves.

    HP-LP bypass systems are used for quick start-up of power generation units and to allow units to run without the turbine during events like load rejection. They divert steam from the boiler to reduce pressure and temperature while maintaining circulation.

    An HP-LP bypass system diverts steam generated by the boiler to the re-heater/condenser to reduce pressure and temperature while maintaining minimum steam circulation through the boiler. This allows running the boiler without the turbine in service and ensures flow through re-heater coils.

    The main components of an HP-LP bypass system include an HP bypass valve, HP bypass spray valve, LP bypass valve, LP bypass spray valve, and an electro-hydraulic actuating system.

    High pressure (HP) and Low pressure (LP) bypass systems are used for quick start-up of the unit as well as during trip-out, where load rejection at the turbine does not automatically lead to a boiler trip. With a bypass system, start-up is quicker. The system diverts the steam generated by the boiler to the Re-heater/Condenser, at the same time reducing the pressure and temperature of steam, thus maintaining a minimum circulation of steam through the boiler. This enables running the boiler without the turbine in service, ensuring flow through re-heater coils. BHEL HP-LP bypass system has the following advantages : The prolonged venting of safety valves to atmosphere is avoided, thereby reducing DM water loss and cutting noise emission.

    Sustained flow through the boiler heating surfaces is assured, ensuring Re-heater protection during start-up of units. If the grid cannot accept power, the unit can be kept running on house load. Almost all power plants are provided with HP-LP bypass systems for technical and economical reasons. The technology has been obtained from SULZER THERMTEC, Switzerland and we manufacture all the components in-house. BHEL has supplied bypass systems to over 150 power plants of 120/210/250/500 MW rating with a total installed capacity of over 32,000 MW.
