Q

Where is the Auxiliary Pump mounted to ?

A

Mounted into Main Pump housing & is driven by Main Hydraulic Pump Shaft

20
Q

What’re the three indication for the suction strainer for Main Hydrulic pump & Aux pump ?

A

-Filter clean
-Needs cleaning
- Bypassing

21
Q

What is the automatic bleed valve used for at the discharge of the Hydraulic pump ?

A

-Allows rapid full pressure starts after a strainer has been cleaned
-Bleed Valve discharges to reservoir

22
Q

Where does the pressure relief valve discharge to at the discharge of the Main Hydraulic Pump ?

A

Routed back to reservoir

23
Q

What happens when you get high DP on the Main Hydraulic Discharge Filters

A
24
Q

What’re the Fluid Accumulators used for ?

A

-Reservoir supply line during turbine load transients that can cause rapid movement of steam admission valves
-Provide immediate 200% reserve fluid for transient requirements

25
Q

How are the 4 Accumulators aligned ?

A

They’re aligned in parallel on common discharge header

26
Q

What’re the Fluid Accumulators precharged with ?

A

Precharged with 1000psig of nitrogen

27
Q

What do the Hydraulic Fluid Oil Coolers do ? How many are there ?

A

-Cools Control Oil returning from steam admission valves
-There is two 100% capacity Fluid Oil Coolers

28
Q

How’re the Hydraulic Fluid Oil Cooleds aligned ?

A

They’re aligned in parallel with normally one in service

29
Q

How is the Turbine Cooling Water inlet flow regulated ?

A

Temperature control valve is controlled by temperature controller to maintain temp. between 110-125

30
Q

What’re the Fullers Earth Filters used for ?

A

-Maintains control oil pH by absorbing water
-Maintains chlorine content of control oil within specifications

31
Q

What is the normal operation of the Fuller Earth Filters ?

A

Normally kept in continuous operation when turbine in service

32
Q

What other pump can operated the Fuller Earth Filters ?

A

Motor driven transfer pump can be used for extended maintnence outage

33
Q

What is the Relief Valve setpoint? Where is the relief valve located ?

A

-Setpoint is 75psig
-located downstream both Hydraulic Pumps & FCV-27

34
Q

Where are the two pressure gauges located around the Fuller Earth Filters & what do they indicate ?

A

One inlet pressure gauge & outlet pressure gauge

35
Q

Why do new Fuller Earth Filters need to be caked for two hours ?

A

Buildup is required to prevent migration of Fullers Earth particles into the Main Fluid when returned to normal service

36
Q

What is the Flow Path for the Fuller Earths “Caked” process ?

A

Recirc mode through filters & recirculation tank, back to Hydraulic Fluid Filtering Pump

37
Q

What does the Transfer Pump Filter do ? When should it be replaced?

A

-Filters hydraulic fluid throughto low particulate size
-Needs to be replaced if local inlet gauge reaches 15psig

38
Q

What is the 4-position Filtering Selection Valve V204 used for ?

A

Used to direct flow to:
-Closed
-Discharge (drain)
-Recirculate to Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir
-Recirculate to Recirc. Tank

39
Q

What is the Control Oil Recirculating Tank used for ?

A

Used during 2hr caking process of the new Fuller Earth Filters

40
Q

What is the Hydraulic Fluid Filtering Pump used for ?

A

-Pumps control oil through fuller earth filtering when Main Hydraulic pumps are shutdown
-Used during power for bypass filtering fluid in reservoir
-Used when adding/draining reservoir

41
Q

Q

When does Control Room alarm for Control Oil Header Pressure ?

A

When Control Oil Header Pressure drops to 1300psig

43
Q

What happens when Control Oil Header Pressure drops to 1100psi ?

A

If pressure drops to 1100 turbine will trip (2/3 logic)

44
Q

What happens on a loss of Instrument air to Hydraulic Coolers ?

A

-TC Inlet Valve to coolers will fail open
-Oil will become overcooled
which,eventually turns on heaters & fans to maintain reservoir temp

45
Q

What happens on a loss of instrument air to the stealth conditioner/dryer ?

A

This would allow moisture into control oil

46
Q

What happens on loss of TC to the Hydraulic Coolers ?

A

-Need to place the heater-fan switch to start, to ONLY start fans
