    Seal Oil System 2

    The document summarizes the seal oil system of a generator. The seal oil system has two circuits - an air side circuit and a hydrogen side circuit. Each circuit includes components like pumps, coolers, filters to maintain proper pressure and prevent hydrogen leakage through the shaft seals on either side of the generator. The seal oil is supplied to the seal rings to maintain a film between the ring and shaft to prevent hydrogen losses. Differential pressure valves in each circuit regulate the oil pressures to be slightly higher than the hydrogen pressure on the respective sides of the generator.

    Generator Auxiliary Systems

    Primary Water System Seal Oil System Gas System

    NEED
    Generators cooled with Hydrogen are provided with Seal Oil System. To arrest the escape of hydrogen from inside the Generator. Shaft seals are provided at both sides (TE/EE) of Generator.

    Seal Oil System


    The shaft seals are supplied with seal oil from two seal oil circuits 1.Air side seal oil circuit. 2.Hydrogen side oil circuit. By dividing into two separate circuits entry of air to hydrogen compartment is kept minimum. Vacuum treatment of seal oil and resulting continuous H2 loss is avoided. Hydrogen losses between rotating shaft and seal ring is prevented by maintaining a continuous film of oil.

    Shaft seal

    Seal Ring
    Seal ring is housed inside the seal body which is bolted to end shield. Seal ring is free to move in radial direction but is restrained from rotating by use of a pin. Oil is supplied to the seal ring at three different pressures. Clearance is maintained between seal ring and shaft such that frictional losses are minimized and oil film of sufficient thickness is maintained

    Air Side Circuit


    Principal components
    Seal oil storage tank Seal oil pump 1 Seal oil pump 2 Stand by seal oil pump Oil cooler 1 Oil cooler 2 Seal oil filter Differential pressure valve A1 Differential pressure valve A2

    Air side circuit


    Pump suction is from SOST. Air side seal oil pressure is controlled by differential pressure valve A1. When only DC sop is in service DPR A2 comes into service automatically. DP=seal oil pressure (AS)-Hydrogen pressure.

    Seal oil filter

    The DP setting to be maintained by the valve is done by corresponding pre loading of main bellows. Pre loading is adjusted with a compression spring.

    Ring Relief
    To balance the oil and gas pressures acting on the seal ring. Oil is forced between seal ring and seal ring housing from air side through annular groove. Seal ring is free to adjust its radial position which is important during start up and shut down period. It needs to allow axial displacement of shaft which is caused by turbine expansions.

    H2 SOP
    kind of pump capacity discharge pressure rating : screw pump : 130 lpm : 12 ksc : 4.85kw/10.6A/415V/945 rpm

    H2 side circuit
    Pump suction is from SOT. SOT level is maintained by two float operated valves. Pump discharge pressure is controlled by C valve (DPR). Equalizing valves maintain the DP between air side and H2 side seal oil pressures at seals.

    Seal Oil Skid

    Seal oil drains


    Oil drains from air side of shaft seals discharges to generator bearing space and is returned to MOT via SOST together with bearing oil. Oil drained from hydrogen side of shaft seals is discharged to generator pre chambers, from there to SOT.

    Pressure Regulation
    Air side seal oil pressure is kept 1.5ksc more the H2 pressure. Air side seal oil pressure at shaft seal is kept slightly more(20mbar) than the H2 side seal oil pressure at shaft seal by Equalizing valves. H2 SOP discharge pressure is kept 2ksc more than Air side SOP discharge pressure.
