Abstract
Temporary fast turbine valving (TFTV) field tests were carried out on AEP´s 1300 MW Rockport unit. Tests at various unit loading levels verified the functional aspects of the TFTV scheme, including the control and intercept valve-stroke characteristics and the rapid reduction of mechanical driving power. An analysis of the mechanical and electrical performance characteristics of the Rockport unit during TFTV is presented. A comparison of the test measurements with digital simulation results is provided to validate the simulation tools and models commonly used in system dynamics studies
