Topic of this diploma thesis is thermodynamical recalculation of turbine TG3 for different parameters and new design of its blading. Introduction deals with theoretical basics of turbines and their components. Second part explains general reasons for retrofit and then specifically for Heating plant Olomouc, where TG3 is located. Third part includes used calculating methods and formulas. Last part presents results, which were calculated in software MS Excel. A cross section drawing is attachment of this thesis.

This master’s thesis deals with design of a high speed steam turbine with detachable condensation module and integrated gearbox. As a source of energy is used heat waste, which is a result of the diesel engines function. Important options concerning conception of the turbo set are discussed in the master’s thesis. Subsequently, thermodynamic calculations for each module are done. Part of the thesis is also simplified calculation of the integral gearbox. Construction drawings of all modules and of the complete turbo set with electrical generator were created based on thermodynamic calculation.

A turbine was investigated by various methods of calculating its efficiency. The project was based on an existing impulse turbine, a one-stage turbine set in an organic Rankine cycle with the working fluid being R245fa. Various methods of loss calculation were explored in the search for a method sufficiently accurate to make valid assumptions regarding the turbine performance, while simple enough to be time efficient for use in industrial research and development.  The calculations were primarily made in an isentropic manner, only taking into account losses due to the residual velocity present in the exit flow. Later, an incidence loss was incorporated in the isentropic calculations, resulting in additional losses at off-design conditions. Leaving the isentropic calculations, the work by Tournier, “Axial flow, multi-stage turbine and compressor models” was used. The work presents a method of calculating turbine losses separated into four components: profile, trailing edge, tip clearance and secondary losses. The losses applicable to the case were implemented into the model. Since the flow conditions of the present turbine are extreme, the results were not expected to coincide with the results of Tournier. In order to remedy this problem, the results were compared to results obtained through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) of the turbine. The equations purposed by Tournier were correlated in order to better match the present case. Despite that the equations by Tournier were correlated in order to adjust to the current conditions, the results of the losses calculated through the equations did not obtain results comparable to the ones of the available CFD simulations. More research within the subject is necessary, preferably using other software tools.

The aim of this master‘s thesis is retrofit of a 300 MW tandem compound steam turbinetype K300 - 170 with three casings and reheat of steam. In the first part a heat balance of the cycle is calculated for given nominal parameters. Further the thesis is focused only on the high pressure section of the turbine, for which the flow section is designed based on thermodynamic calculations and appropriate blade profiles are selected. Then the stress control of the blading is done. The thesis is concluded with estimation of power loss due to shaft seals and real power output of the turbine is calculated. This thesis also includes a drawing of axial section of the high pressure section of the turbine.
