Gland Sealing System, Gland sealing, Self Sealing in Steam Turbines

Hello Power Engineers
Welcome to power plant guru for new video on Gland steam system on steam turbine. In this video we describe gland steam seals and gland sealing system in steam turbine. gland sealing system in turbines, labyrinth gland sealing system, gland sealing system of steam turbines, working of gland sealing system, Self-sealing system steam turbine, gland seal exhaust system how does the steam turbine gland sealing system work.

Thanks for the excellent explanation. However, the pointer is not visible, which can sometimes make it difficult to understand.

What will happen if the 2 gland exhaust blowers stopped

I have seen a flash tank with spray cooler but without atmospheric vent. After latching of turbine all drains from HP msv , HP cv are collected to flash tank. The condensate from VSC (leak of Gland steam condenses in VSC by exchanging heat to Condensate from CEPs discharge) also get collected there. Spray coolers from condensate line spray water to flash tank to control temperature . Fresh condensate pumps used to control level of flash box by pumping condensate back to hotwell.
Flash tanks are one of the most critical component . Monitoring of Flask Tank level is of high priority during startup & shutdown.Water induction in steam turbine can be happen when fresh condensate pump fails to operate
Spray coolers stuck open
Passing in drain movs or steam traps malfunctions.
Normally drain movs are close but a slight passing can result into water induction.

Hello Suraj
We have created a dedicated video on droop control, you can find that in the playlist.
