Diagnosis device for abnormality of power plant equipment

Description

In a power plant, if contained water leaks in a condensate system, water is automatically supplied from a feedwater system in accordance with the leakage. Since the diameter of the pipeline of the supplementary feedwater system is generally small, the influence of the leakage of the contained water appears remarkably as a change of the amount of the feed water in the supplementary feed water system. The change of the supplementary state of water to the condensate system by the supplementary feed water system is monitored, to estimate the presence or absence of the leakage of water contained in the condensate system depending on the result of the monitoring, and then the results are informed. In addition, when leakage of water contained in the condensate system is estimated, guidance information is prepared and outputted for coping with the result of the estimation, and the result of the estimation and the guidance information are displayed auditory and visually. As a result, a plant operator can recognize the abnormality of water leakage in the condensate system rapidly and accurately without observing various states of the condensate system and with no knowledge or experiences at high levels, thereby enabling to conduct appropriate processing rapidly.
