WHAT IS GOVERNING SYSTEM ?
Turbine Governing system is meant for regulation of turbine
speed under no load and varying load condition.
To regulate the steam control valve position and hence load
generated.
To control the initial run up and synchronization of the
machine
To assist in matching the power generated to that demanded
by responding to the network frequency changes.
SALENT FEATURES OF 200 MW KWU TURBINE
GOVERNING SYSTEM
KWU 200 MW turbine is a throttle governed machine.
Two governors, electro-hydraulic and hydraulic are
incorporated. Both the governors are connected in
parallel.
Only one governor can be selected at a time through the
process of hydraulic minimum selection.
The control valve opening depends on secondary oil
pressure and there is a definite relationship between the
opening of HP control valve and IP control valve.
Between 40 to 200MW the turbine load is varied by
changing the HP control valve throttling alone.
HYDRAULIC GOVERNOR SALIENT FEATURES
Hydraulic governor is having only one control
loop called speed controller.
Machine speed is measured and indicated as
primary oil pressure.
Range of speed control is 2800-3210 rpm.
Speed regulation range (droop) of HG is 7%.
HG acts as a back-up to the EHG.
HG can not be isolated mechanically like EHG
and HG is considered to be the primary
governor of the KWU turbine
ELECTRO-HYDRAULIC GOVERNOR SALIENT
FEATURES
EHG consists of three control loops for speed, load and
pressure.
EHG optimizes the turbine life by conservative operation with
the aid of TSE.
Faster response and precise frequency control.
Actual speed of the turbine is measured by using hall probes
Range of speed control is wider (0-3210) rpm.
Speed regulation (Droop) can be changed from 2.5% to 8% in
a step of 0.5% even when the machine runs on load. The usual
setting of droop in EHG is 5%.
EHG can be mechanically isolated by closing the secondary oil
line from the local.

REMOTE TRIP SOLENOIDS
TURBINE TRIP GEAR
Trip gear is the main protection mechanism of the turbine. It diverts
the control oil coming from the RTS in to TRIP OIL and AUX.TRIP
OIL. Aux.trip oil keeps the trip gear spool valve in open condition so
that uninterrupted trip oil pressure is ensured. Aux.trip oil is also
connected to three hydraulic safety devices namely Over speed , Low
vacuum &Thrust bearing Trip Devices.
