Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. This course designed is to provide participants with a detailed overview on the operation and maintenance of steam turbines and their auxiliary support systems. It covers the STG component construction and maintenance procedures as well as the fundamental knowledge of the auxiliary systems function and preventive maintenance requirements which allow participants to approach maintenance activities including troubleshooting with confidence. Further, the course will also discuss the STG component construction and maintenance procedures; the auxiliary systems function and preventive maintenance requirements; the maintenance activities approach including troubleshooting with confidence; the fundamentals of steam turbine and basic steam cycle; the main components of turbine systems including lubricating oil systems, steam and water seal systems and hydraulic power units; the irregular operations within a systems; the locations and functions of the turbine supervisory instrument; the major components of steam turbine; the fundamentals of steam turbine control concepts; and the controls section to describe the purpose and function of the controls system, including protective functions of the turbine.During this interactive course, participants will learn the STG major components, equipment arrangements and associated maintenance requirements of each section of the turbine; how to source information in the STG service manuals; the proper troubleshooting and turbine operations; the operation of a steam turbine and how it inter-relates with the rest of the power plant; the effect on maintenance intervals; the steam turbine maintenance procedures including practices, disassembly, inspection, evaluation and reassembly sequence; the maintenance planning, scheduling, decision making and reviewing of standard practices, tooling and parts needed to successfully conduct inspections; the turbine shells, casings, rotors, journal bearing, thrust bearings and couplings; the key elements including rotor, diaphragms, bearings, valves and steam seal systems; the steam valve, alignment and irregular operating conditions caused by vibration of different components; the abnormal conditions, verifying potential results and operator action to prevent loss; and the purpose, function and routine preventive maintenance of various turbine support systems. link to course overview PDF
