Research on the Torsional Vibration Response Characteristics of Parallel Operation Steam Turbine Generator Unit Shafting

Abstract

Abstract With the continuous increase of unit capacity and the widespread application of series compensation devices in power transmission systems, the risk of coupling oscillation between units and power grids and between units has increased significantly, which seriously endangers the safe operation of units and power grids. In this paper, the torsional vibration response of each unit after grid failure is calculated by establishing a lumped mass model of the shafting torsional vibration of the parallel unit. The effects of fault type, series compensation degree and fault location on the torsional vibration of parallel unit shafting are studied. The results show that the three-phase short-circuit fault in the grid has a greater impact on the unit; the influence of series compensation degree on the torsional vibration of the shaft system decreases first and then increases; when the transmission line fails, it will produce a certain torsional vibration excitation effect on the shafting of all units; when a short-circuit fault occurs at the outlet of a generator, the torsional vibration excitation of the unit is the largest, but it will also produce a certain degree of torsional vibration excitation to other units in the same network.
