The nuclear power plant's turbine-generator system had been suffered form some problems, such as high shaft vibration, generator casing crack, stator coil water leakage, high $H_2$ gas consumption rate. Those kinds of problems were related to high vibration. So nuclear plant decided to replace generator in order to reduce rotor high vibration and high thermal sensitivity. A series of effort to reduce turbine-generator vibration was carried out as followings, first of all, replacement of generator, analysis of turbine-generator vibration, LP B rotor shop balancing, improvement of LP B/Gen coupling run-out, improvement of Generator basement and field balancing. Finally the nuclear turbine-generator's shaft vibration was reduced below $60{\mu}m$ from over $200{\mu}m$ which is very excellent vibration in nuclear turbine-generator in Korea.

Turbine-generator torsional response is caused by interaction between electrical transient air-gap torque and mechanical characteristics of turbine-generator shafts. There are various factors that affects torsional interaction such as fault, circuit breaker switching and generator mal-synchronizing, etc. Fortunately, we can easily simulate above torsional interaction phenomena by using ElectroMagnetic Transient Program (EMTP). However, conventional EMTP shows the incomplete response of super- synchronous torsional mode since it does not consider turbine blade section. Therefore, in this paper, we introduced mechanical-electrical analogy for detailed modeling of turbine-generator shaft system including low pressure turbine blade section. In addition, we derived the natural frequencies of modeled turbine-generator shaft system including turbine blade section and analyzed the characteristics of mechanical torque response at shaft coupling and turbine blade root area according to power system balanced/unbalanced faults.

Turbo generator system need starter for gas turbine engine. Turbo generator has high rate gearbox for reduce rotating speed. Because a conventional generator could not operate same speed of gas turbine engine. But Recently turbo generator system is directly connected a gas turbine engine with a super high-speed generator. In this paper, starter driver are implemented direct coupled turbo generator system, Which is directly connected 100kW, 60,000rpm gas turbine engine and 25kW 60,000rpm super high speed generator.

The analysis shows that the vibration is one of the main reasons of turbine failure. Especially, the problems caused by vibration occur right after retrofit of the turbine-generator and restarting the turbine. Through the case study of high vibration caused by after the turbine trip and restart, turbine vibration was identified to be influenced by startup condition. Turbine startup at high casing temperature right after unscheduled turbine trip cause radial expansion in rotor by contraction in axial direction, while casing continues to contract by steam flowing into casing. Consequently, gap between rotor and casing decrease until to metal contact to cause high vibration. Through the case study of high vibration of turbine-generator system after generator retrofit, it was identified that generator replacement could cause high vibration in turbine-generator system if the influence of generator replacement on entire system was not considered properly. To prevent startup delay caused by high vibration, it is important to keep the gaps at the design standard and start the turbine after thermal equilibrium.

If the factory test efficiency and field operation efficiency of water turbine are different from each other, issues for efficiency warranty can be raised. So, This paper shows the result for comparative analysis of field operating efficiency vs plant testing efficiency of the water turbine generator installed in agricultural reservoir. The efficiency of the induction generator is analyzed by the change of rotational speed with the parameter obtained by test, the efficiency of water turbine is calculated by the change of head with the design flow. Efficiency deviation of induction generator is lower but the variation of developed power is pretty high near the rated speed and the efficiency variation of water turbine is high by the fluctuation of head for constant flow. It was found that factory test efficiency and total efficiency of water turbine generator calculated according to the rotational speed are very close.

The grid frequency is controlled cooperatively by the governor of the Turbine-Generator and the automatic generation controller(AGC) of the KPX(Korea Power Exchange). It is a basic requirement that the reliability of the governor is verified to enhance the power system stability but it is not easy to confirm the response characteristics of the governor because all generators are operated in the grid system that has the constant voltage and frequency. Therefore, it is necessary to study a new test method in order to examine the governor dynamic characteristic in the similar fault conditions. A study has shown that it is verified to simulate the turbine-generator power control system, the governor response characteristic under limited conditions and contribution of AGC with the gas turbine generator simulation model as well as demonstrate the dynamic response of the governor with the developed governor dynamic characteristic tester based on digital controller while the turbine-generator is connected to the grid system. This tester is constructed by the built-in functions of the turbine-generator main controller. In this treatise, the theoretical background, development method and the results of both simulations and demonstrations are described as another way to verify the turbine-generator governor dynamic characteristics.

Turbine-generator torsional response is caused by interaction between electrical transient air-gap torque and mechanical characteristics of turbine-generator shafts. If torsional shaft torque exceeds a certain threshold, the loss of fatigue life may occur and, in the end, it is possible to happen permanent shaft failure. Therefore, it is required to understand the torsional response for reliable operation and protection of turbine-generator shaft system. In this paper, we introduced multi-mass modeling method of turbine-generator shaft system using mechanical-electrical analogy and state-space equation to verify the transient torsional response based on ElectroMagnetic Transient Program (EMTP). These simple realization methods for turbine-generator shaft torsional response could be helpful to understand torsional interaction phenomena and develop the transient torque reduction countermeasures for turbine-generator shaft system.

In this paper a new dc-link type wind turbine generator system using a shaft generator system, which is widely used for power sources in a ship, is proposed. The basic configuration of the proposed wind turbine generating system is first explained. And the equations expressing the system are derived. Then the steady-state characteristics of the generating system are discussed. We use an experimental system that can simulate the characteristics of a wind turbine in this study, because it is hard to operate an actual wind turbine in a laboratory. In addition, the transient responses of this system are investigated when the velocity of the wind is changed. It is shown that experimental results were very close to the simulated ones, supporting the usefulness of the theory.

This paper deals with the impact of an inverter station on the torsional dynamics of turbine-generator which is located at the inverter side of a HVDC-AC network power system. The studies show that the torsional stress of turbine-generator depends on the AC network fault locations because of the commutation failures of inverter station. And the torsional stress induce fatigue in the shaft material and reduce the shaft life-time. So, the purpose of this paper is to analysis the torsional stress of turbine-generator shaft at inverter side, to find the checked points of turbine-generator. The EMTDC program is used for the simulation studies.
