Evaluation of Impulse Unloading Efficiency Pertaining to APS Power Block Turbine for Higher Dynamic Steadiness by Yu. D. Filipchik

“…The performed calculations while simulating four various impulse turbine characteristics have shown that the highest effect is obtained while characteristics of APS power block turbine are close to the characteristics of a steam turbine K-300/240. It has been established that an application of standard time interval for emergency automation startup and existing delay in the operation of electro-hydraulic transformer do not allow to influence on acceleration area and the positive effect due to load shedding is reached only due to an increase of braking site. …”
