    Curious about the reason for the difference in lube oil tank differential pressure during gas turbine startup and shutdown.

    I'm curious about the reason for the difference in lube oil tank differential pressure during gas turbine startup and shutdown. During startup, the lube oil tank differential pressure is around 8 inches, but it decreases to 6 inches when stopped. I don't quite understand why there is a...

    Curious about why the Discharge MOV opens 1 minute after starting the BFP

    Our company's BFP (Boiler Feed Pump) functions to suction from the LP (Low Pressure) Drum and send it to the HP (High Pressure) and IP (Intermediate Pressure) drums. When we start the BFP, the HP discharge small MOV (Motor-Operated Valve) opens, then the BFP starts, and after 1 minute, the HP...

    I wonder why HP Leak off Steam is sent to the LP header

    I know that it is usually used for self sealing with HP Leak off Steam. However, in my power plant steam turbine, leak-off re-entry stop valve (LRSV) is open and sends HP Leak off Steam to the Lp Header side. Why is the hp leak off steam sent as Lp Header instead of using Self Sealing?
