500 MW Bhel Turbine

The document describes a combined main stop and control valve used in steam turbines. The main stop valve isolates the turbine from the main steam line and can rapidly interrupt steam flow. The control valve regulates steam flow according to load. Both valves are contained in a common body. The main stop valve closes via spring force and opens hydraulically, while the control valve is opened and closed hydraulically according to a servomotor and piston assembly. Regular testing of the main stop valve ensures proper functioning.
