What is the role and use of power forgings in power plants?

In power plants, the specific use of power forgings includes the following aspects:

Steam turbine: A steam turbine is one of the core equipment in a power plant, which uses steam or other gases to push the rotor to turn, thereby driving a generator to produce electricity. Some key components in the steam turbine, such as blades, nozzles, partitions, etc., are made of electric forgings. These parts need to be carefully forged and machined to ensure the accuracy of their shape and size.

Gas turbine: A gas turbine is another common power generation device that uses a mixture of fuel and air to burn in a combustion chamber, and the resulting gas turns a rotor to drive a generator to produce electricity. Some key components in gas turbines, such as rotors, combustion chambers, turbines, etc., are also manufactured from electric forgings. These components require high temperature strength and stability.

Generator: The generator is another core device in the power plant, which uses the interaction of magnetic fields and wires to produce electrical energy. Some key components in the generator, such as rotors, stators, etc., are made of electric forgings. These components need to have high accuracy and stability to ensure the normal operation of the generator.

Other equipment: In addition to the above core equipment, there are many other auxiliary equipment in the power plant, such as pumps, valves, pipes, etc., which also require key components for the manufacture of electric forgings. These components also have high requirements for the quality and stability of power forgings.

In short, power forgings play a vital role in power plants, they are not only used to manufacture various key components, but also play an integral role in the power generation process. With the continuous progress of technology and the promotion of new energy policies, the application of power forgings in power plants will continue to expand and optimize, and make greater contributions to the sustainable development of mankind.
