Abstract:According to the regulations of DL/T 12902013: Test Method on Vacuum Tightness of Direct Aircooled Generating Unit, a vacuum tightness test must be carried out at fixed period in the operation of a steam turbine in order to check the tightness of the unit vacuum system. For direct aircooled generating unit, the cooling effect of a condenser is greatly influenced by environment factors because the cooling
medium of condenser is air. Similarly, the test results are also greatly influenced by environment factors when doing a vacuum tightness test. This paper introduced the test method on vacuum tightness of direct air
cooled generating unit, and analyzed the major factors which affect test results. Then the accuracy of test results is evaluated and a judgment method of vacuum system leakage through unit operation parameters is proposed.
