- Curve to reflect adjusted condition at Rated Speed using Affinity Laws.

- Curve to include Head, Efficiency, BHP and NPSHR against Capacity, Impeller Size, Stable Operating Range

- Data to include raw data and Affinity Law corrected data

Feedwater Pump Performance Testing Protocol

FSRUG

Standard Performance Test per Hydraulic Institute

Standards and ASME PTC 8.2: cont’d

- Pump Bearing Housing Vibration (Horz, Vert, Axial)- Pump Shaft Vibration (Two Positions, 90o Apart)- Record Bearing, Pump Casing, Motor Bearing & Winding

Temperatures- Lube Oil Flow and Pressure- Seal Injection Flow to Bushings- Seal Leakage Flow to Atmosphere

FSRUG

Standard Performance Test Acceptance Criteria per

Hydraulic Institute

- At Rated Capacity, % of Rated Head- Rated Head, % of Rated Flow- Efficiency at Rated Capacity, -X%- NPSHR at Rated Flow (and Runout), Not more than X FT abs.- Vibration, based on agreement with Customer- Bearing Temperatures, Not to exceed XoF

Feedwater Pump Performance Testing Protocol

FSRUG

Feedwater Pump Performance Testing Protocol

FSRUG

NPSH Transient Test:

- WITNESSED- Test only one Pump - Pumpage Temperature, Rated (e.g., 375oF) but not controlled

throughout event- Pump will be set at Rated Flow and Speed- Reduce Suction Pressure Until Pump Head Falls Off to 50% of

Design Head- Continue Operation for 3 Minutes Minimum- Suddenly Restore Suction Pressure- Rerun Performance Test at 3 Flow Rates: Minimum, Rated and

Runout

Feedwater Pump Performance Testing Protocol

FSRUG

NPSH Transient Test: cont’d

- Verify no performance degradation- Disassemble Pump for Post Test Inspection

Feedwater Pump Performance Testing Protocol

FSRUG

Thermal Transient Test:

- WITNESSED- Test only one Pump at conclusion of performance and NPSHR

Testing- Pump will be set at Rated Flow and Speed- Temperature of Pumpage to be reduced from Rated Temperature

(e.g., 375oF) to Less Than 200oF in less than 3 minutes- Rerun Performance Test at 3 Flow Rates: Minimum, Rated and

Runout- Verify no performance degradation- Disassemble Pump for Post Test Inspection

Pump Performance Testing Protocol

FSRUG

Hot Box Train Test:

- WITNESSED- Operate at Faulted System and Atmospheric Conditions- Test at Duty Point- Accident Atmospheric (e.g., 150oF)- Pumpage Temperature (e.g., 130oF)- Pump & Motor Mounted on Job Base Plate- Monitor Temperature of Atmosphere, Bearings, Motor Winding- Monitor Vibration- Operate pump long enough to allow bearing temperatures to

stabilize- Test Duration, 30 Minutes

Commissioning Keys to Success

FSRUG

- Planning for each Commissioning Activity

- Contingencies (Implement Ahead of Time)

- Utilize Experience Field Service Support (protects warranty)

- Guard Schedule for each Commissioning Activity

- Don’t Cut Corners

Commissioning Remarks (Scars)

FSRUG

- Foundation Preparation- Surprises (Field Condition does not meet original

construction drawing Details)

- Leveling Base- Pedestals can be found to not be level (stress relief,

field machining to correct condition)- Machinist’s Level (0.0005” Graduations), 0.002”/FT

- Anchor Bolt Hardware- Physical condition of existing hardware, corrosion

- Hardware does not meet original construction drawing details

- Location of Anchor Bolts differs from original construction drawing details

Commissioning Remarks (Scars)

FSRUG

- Grouting / Grout Repairs- Plan using API 686 Recommended Practices

- Plan using YouTube videos (several available)

- Utilize Experienced personnel

- Plan on Grout Repairs (purchase repair equipment to drill/metric tap base deck plate, injection equipment typically comes with metric fitting)

- Plan repair strategy (deck plate construction, drilling spacing rules for venting)

Pump/Motor Base: Grouting & Grout Repairs per API-RP686

Commissioning Remarks (Scars)

FSRUG

- Getting Equipment in to Compartment

- Access may require disassembly of components based on size of door (opening), limitation of Crane lifting capacity

- Disassembly may require components never intended to come apart (e.g., Motor joint with gasket). Gasket could have EQ requirements, purchase spare material ahead of time, confirm torque values

Commissioning Remarks (Scars)

FSRUG

- Setting Equipment- Motor Driven: Set Pump, Shim Motor to Align

- Turbine Driven: Set Turbine, Shim Pump to Align

Feedwater: Pumpage (Temperature, Specific Gravity)

FSRUG

- Given Temperature (F): Determine Specific Gravity, S.G.

- Temperature (365oF) Specific Volume (Vf) = 0.01817

- 1 / Vf = 1 / 0.01817 = 55.03 lbm/ft3 = (ρ365oF, density)

- 1 / Vf = 1 / 0.016033 = 62.37 lbm/ft3 = (ρ60oF, density)

- S.G. = ρ365oF / ρ60oF = 55.03 / 62.37 = 0.883

Feedwater: Pumpage (Temperature, Specific Gravity)

FSRUG

- Given Specific Gravity, S.G.: Determine Temperature (F)

- Specific Gravity (S.G. 0883)

- S.G. = ρ365oF / ρ60oF ρ365oF = (S.G.)(ρ60oF)

- ρ365oF = (0.883)(62.37) = 55.07 lbm/ft3

- Vf = 1 / ρ365oF = 0.01816 Temperature = 364oF

Feedwater: Pumpage (Temperature, Specific Gravity)

FSRUG

- Determine Brakehorse Power (BHP) at Duty Point with Pumpage Temperature at 60oF.

BHP = (Flow, GPM)(Head, FT)(S.G.)

(3960)(pump eff.)

BHP at 365oF = 5,600 BHP

BHP at 60oF = (BHP) x (S.G.,60oF)

(S.G., 365oF)

= (5,600)(1.0)/(0.883)

= 6,342 BHP
