Speed signal is an important monitoring signal in Steam Turbine Condition Monitoring And Fault Diagnosis(TDM) system. A review on the existing speed measurement methods of rotary machine was proposed to find out the defects of each method. A new approach was introduced to fulfill steam turbine speed accurate measuring. The periods of phase signal pulse generated by the key groove and speed signal pulse generated by the velocimetry gear, were measured respectively by the two independent 16-bit timer/counters, and the "counter overflow" problem was resolved by calling a byte memory unit. According to the record number of the counter, the value of steam turbine speed was calculated accurately. The method of steam turbine speed measurement proposed in this paper can not only simplify the structure of a TDM system, but also reduce its cost.
This article introduced the four-terminal network method, Riccati transfer matrix method and finite element method respectively, and the applications of three methods in inherent characteristics analysis of turbine generator units’ torsional vibration. Considering an actual case of 600 MW units in one power, the natural frequencies and normal vibration mode of units’ torsional vibration were worked out through the three methods, and compared with the testing natural frequencies, the results showed that the calculation precisions of three methods are very high, and the three methods can be used to analyze actual units. Comparatively, the results obtained by four-terminal network method are closer to testing natural frequencies with a higher calculation precision.
