Abstract
The main inlet component of steam turbine is control valve. The stable operation of the steam turbine control valve is vital for safe and stable operation of the steam turbine and safety production of the power plant. However, due to the complexity of the structure and unsteady characteristics of steam flow in the valve, there is not enough experimental method about the detailed flow characteristics of the area near control valve disc and the inside of the valve chamber up to now. This article is to focus on the simulation of the steam turbine control valve interior flow field which includes the valve pre-inlet channel in different conditions, then find the reasons which caused instability and pressure loss of the control valve by analyzing the flow field details, finally further optimization design. The profile matching of the valve disc and valve seat has a great influence on the interior flow field of control valve, so analysis of the high performance valve disc shape and divergence angle of valve seat is carried out, and the research conclusion is used for guide design and development of the control valve.
