Soft start of water pump turbine
If a reversible turbine/generator is used, the turbine can also operate as a pump. They can
Water is pumped into the elevated reservoir to achieve energy storage and meet the demand during peak electricity periods.
In the working mode of the water pump, the generator is used as a motor. Due to the fact that this type of generator/motor is typically
It has a high rated power, so it is almost impossible to start directly online - even if not
Carrying a load.
Using ABB's MEGADRIVE LCI soft starter to start large synchronous generators/electricity
The machine is not a problem at all. Starting the generator in motor mode, the water pump turbine is unloaded,
Usually, the required power is less than 10% of the rated power of the turbine. MEGADRIVE LCI Soft
The starter will continuously increase the voltage and frequency of the motor, and smoothly reduce the turbine speed from zero
Accelerate to the speed synchronized with the power grid. This will minimize the impact on the power grid to the greatest extent possible
The impact, such as voltage drop caused by high starting current. In addition, it can also reduce the impact on
The mechanical and thermal stresses of the turbine/generator reduce maintenance costs and extend the lifespan of the equipment
service life.
Frequency converters are used for gas turbine starters and pumped storage power plants
The direct online starting of large synchronous motors can cause high starting current and sudden voltage fluctuations in the power supply network
Reduce and generate thermal stress on the motor and mechanical stress on the shaft system.
advantage
- Reduce the impact of starting on the power supply network and mechanical components
- Extend the service life of equipment
- The starting current is limited to the rated current or less
Using a MEGADRIVE LCI soft starter to sequentially start multiple machines - even
- Machines with different rated powers
- No need for speed detection device and rotor position detection device
Gas turbine starter
Gas turbines often need to be started in a short period of time and quickly started up. The MEGADRIVE LCI gas turbine starter uses a generator as an electric motor to operate above the gas turbine
The ignition speed. Then, the gas turbine can take over and independently accelerate the generator's operation
Speed, reach the rated speed, and synchronize it with the power grid.

Malarenergi, Sweden
ABB refurbishes 280MW boiler for Unit 6 of GKM thermal power plant located in Mannheim, Germany
ABB is a municipal power and central heating provider headquartered in Westerros, Sweden
The project has supplied multiple medium voltage frequency converters. Two thirds of the 5.8MW boiler feedwater pumps are added
M ä larenergi has supplied multiple sets of medium voltage frequency converter systems. Energy audit conducted by ABB
Installed a frequency converter and replaced the inefficient hydraulic coupling.
Indicating that upgrading centralized heating pumps through the use of frequency converters can bring significant energy savings
Potential. Four resistors and a slip ring motor are taken from a frequency converter with a rated power of 1765 kW
After replacement, it is estimated that 12 million kilowatt hours of energy can be saved annually, and carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced by approximately 1% annually
Dai.
Ten thousand tons.
This greatly reduces the heat loss caused by flow control methods, while also increasing the annual electricity production

University of Illinois, USA
The boiler feedwater pump of Energy Combined Heat and Power (CHP) power plants used to be powered by slip energy
ABB supplied multiple frequency converters to Abbott power plants owned by the University of Illinois in the United States. hair
The winding rotor motor of the control system is controlled using a rated power of 4500kW
The power plant is equipped with a turbocharger fan controlled by imported guide vanes, using a rated power of 750 kW
Upgrade the four sets of frequency converter systems.
The frequency converter has been upgraded.
After the upgrade, the efficiency of the power plant has been greatly improved and maintenance costs have been effectively reduced.
By upgrading, an annual energy savings of $63000 can be achieved, and carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced annually
Approximately 730000 kilograms of carbon, reducing maintenance costs by $10000 annually.
