Turbine (Inlet Stage)#
This is a steam power generation turbine model for the inlet stage. It inherits HelmIsentropicTurbine <reference_guides/model_libraries/power_generation/unit_models/turbine_inlet:Turbine (Isentropic)>.
The turbine inlet model is based on:
Liese, (2014). “Modeling of a Steam Turbine Including Partial Arc Admission for Use in a Process Simulation Software Environment.” Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power. v136.

Degrees of Freedom#
Usually the inlet stream, or the inlet stream minus flow rate plus discharge pressure are fixed. There are also a few variables which are turbine parameters and are usually fixed, like flow coefficients. See the variables section for more information.
Model Structure#
The turbine inlet stage model contains one ControlVolume0DBlock block called control_volume and inherits HelmIsentropicTurbine <reference_guides/model_libraries/power_generation/unit_models/turbine_inlet:Turbine (Isentropic)>.

Constraints#
In addition to the constraints inherited from the HelmTurbineStage <reference_guides/model_libraries/power_generation/unit_models/turbine_inlet:Turbine (Stage)>, this model contains two more constraints, one to estimate efficiency and one pressure-flow relation. From the isentropic pressure changer model, these constraints eliminate the need to specify efficiency and either inlet flow or outlet pressure.
The isentropic efficiency is given by:
The pressure-flow relation is given by:
Initialization#
The initialization method for this model will save the current state of the model
before commencing initialization and reloads it afterwards. The state of the model
will be the same after initialization, only the initial guesses for
unfixed variables will be changed and optionally a flow coefficient value can be
calculated. To initialize this model, provide a starting value for the inlet port
variables. Then provide a guess for one of: discharge pressure, deltaP
, or
ratioP
. Since it can be hard to determine a proper flow coefficient, the
calculate_cf
argument of the initialize()
method can be set to True, and
the deltaP guess will be used to calculate and set a corresponding flow coefficient.
The model should initialize readily, but it is possible to provide a flow coefficient that is incompatible with the given flow rate resulting in an infeasible problem.

TurbineInletStageData Class#
- class idaes.models_extra.power_generation.unit_models.helm.turbine_inlet.HelmTurbineInletStageData(component)[source]#
- build()[source]#
Add model equations to the unit model. This is called by a default block construnction rule when the unit model is created.
- initialize_build(outlvl=0, solver=None, optarg=None, calculate_cf=False)[source]#
Initialize the inlet turbine stage model. This deactivates the specialized constraints, then does the isentropic turbine initialization, then reactivates the constraints and solves. This initialization uses a flow value guess, so some reasonable flow guess should be specified prior to initialization.
