marking M/c.

- Machining on Horizontal Boring, Vertical Boring, Lathes etc. as the case

may be on CNC /Conventional Machines.

- Intermediate assembly operation is carried out on the respective

assembly beds provided.

- Then the assembly is machined as per requirement.

- The sub-assemblies are further assembled for hydraulic/functional

testing. Hydraulic testing is done using a power driven triple piston

horizontal hydraulic pump which can generate a pressure of 200 Kg/Cm2.

It can also be carried out using a power pack.

- On Governing elements / assembly and test stand, the components / sub-

assemblies / assemblies are tested up to a hydraulic pressure of 200 Kg /

c m2 using the piston pump. Oil testing upto 40 Kg / c m2 is carried out

with oil pumping unit, which is permanently installed on this bed.

3.2 STEAM TURBINE

Processes carried out in various sections of steam turbine manufacture are

based on the following main phases.

(a) Machine section – Castings, Forgings, welded structures and other blanks

are delivered to this section. The manufacturing process is based on the use

of high efficiency carbide tipped tools, high speed and high feed machining

techniques with maximum utilization of machine – tool capacity and quick

acting jigs and fixtures.

(b) Assembly Section – Casings and Governing assemblies are hydraulically

tested for leakage on special test Bed. Assembled unit of governing and

steam distribution systems are tested on Governing Test Bed. General

Assembly and testing of Steam Turbine is carried out on the main Test Bed

in Bay-II.

(c) Painting, Preservation and Packing – After testing the turbine, it is

disassembled and inspected. Then the parts are painted, conserved and

packed for final dispatch.

3.3 GAS TURBINE

The major processes involved in manufacturing Gas Turbine in various

sections of Bk-III are as follows:

a) Machining

assemblies. These sub-assemblies are again machined as per technological

and design requirements and are made ready for final assembly. After

assembly and insulation assembled Gas Turbine is sent to site.

c) Rotor Assembly

The rotor is assembled on Hydraulic Lifting Platform and sent to main

assembly, where after checking clearances, it is sent for machining. After

balancing, turbine side of rotor is disassembled, inner casing is fitted and

rotor reassembled. This work is also carried out on Hydraulic Lifting

Platform. Finally rotor is sent for assembly on test bed.

d) Combustion Chamber Assembly

This assembly is carried out on 3 tier platform installed for this purpose in

Bay-I assembly. After machining of all components, ceramic tiles are fitted

in flame tube. Burner and piping etc. is fitted in dome and combustion

chamber is finally assembled. It is directly sent to site after insulation.

10. Selection of Test Sample : All tests and examination shall be

performed on specimens taken in

accordance with annexure 1 from at least

one blade of each drawing per melts and

heat treatment batch.

11. Mechanical properties :

11.1 The mechanical properties of the blade material shall conform to the

following :

0.2 % proof stress : 600 N/mm2

11.4 Hardness Test : The brinell hardness test HB 30 shall be carried out

according to IS : 1500.

12. Non Destructive Test :

12.1 Blade shall only be manufactured from ultrasonically examined rare

material.

12.2 In order to ensure freedom from defects. All blades shall be subjected to

magnetic particle examination prior to shipment.

13. Dimenional Checks for Acceptance :

13.1 The supplier shall check 100% of the forgings w.r.t. to all parameters.

13.2 Dimensions parameters to be checked for acceptance.

Following dimensional parameters of each of the check sections as

specified in ordering drawing shall be inspected after fixing / clamping

the forging in vertical stand to check conformance of profile of

individual section as well as in relation to each other.

o From tolerance for pressure side = H

o From tolerance for suction side = R, max differenceR

o From tolerance for Inlet edge = H

o Twist Tolerance = (H, R) max.

Profile thickness of each section. = D Max. / D / D1

Max. profile length of each section.

Root dimensions.

Base dimensions.

Base plate contour.

Axial and tangential shift of profile with respect to root.

Overall length of forging.

Surface finish.

13.3 Procedure for dimensional checks :

Check of inlet edge: The profile of inlet edge shall be checked by

using split profile gauges.

Check of Profile : All the dimensional parameters mentioned at

(13.2) shall be checked using a vertical measuring stand.
