During the start-up of the steam turbine, the temperature difference, thermal stress and thermal deformation between the components are large. Most accidents of steam turbines occur at the start-up time. Due to incorrect warm-up conditions, the misoperation of the on-duty personnel and the defects of some structures of the equipment itself, accidents may occur. Even if there is no direct accident at the time, the consequences will still have adverse effects in future production. The operation practice of modern steam turbines shows that cracks in the cylinder, valve housing and pipeline, bending of the turbine rotor and cylinder, warping of the cylinder flange joint surface, loosening of the tightening assembly components, changes in the state of the metal structure, increased bearing wear and other abnormal conditions exposed in the initial stage of operation are all direct consequences of poor start-up quality. When the steam turbine is started, it is often encountered that the problem of poor control of the warm-up speed causes the metal temperature to rise too fast or too slow, and occasionally there will be temperature mutations, untimely vacuum suction, large vibration after the start-up and large temperature difference between the upper and lower cylinders. These all affect the safe operation of the generator set to a certain extent, and in severe cases, the unit cannot be smoothly connected to the grid. When the steam turbine is shut down, the negative expansion difference often increases after the unit stops until it exceeds the alarm value, and sometimes even approaches the trip protection value, which seriously affects the safe operation of the unit. Programmable controller PLC has been widely used in gas turbine power plants. It uses the internally stored control program software and external input data and operation instructions, and sends instructions to the control device through logical and arithmetic operations to complete the control and regulation of the gas turbine generator set and various auxiliary equipment. PLC can control and regulate the engine speed, exhaust temperature, load and parameters and status of various engine systems of the gas turbine generator set. For example, in the lubricating oil system, it can complete the control of parameters such as pressure, temperature, liquid level and the status of lubricating oil heaters, lubricating oil coolers, AC and DC lubricating oil pumps.
