Ural Turbine Plant

In September 1936, the Council of Labor and Defense decided to build a turbine plant in Sverdlovsk. In 1937, the project was approved, and on October 2, 1938, the Ural Turbine Plant (UTZ) was established. According to the project, the plant was supposed to produce turbines for the navy.

The first unit of its own design - a turbo feed pump for power plants - was produced by UTZ in 1940. Then began their serial production.

In May 1941, UTZ produced a 12 MW heat-generating turbine designed for the combined generation of electric and thermal energy. The manufacture of the first turbine was a turning point in the history of the plant: the production of the most powerful steam cogeneration turbine at that time was mastered; the specialization of the plant for the production of cogeneration turbines was determined.

During the Great Patriotic War, evacuated enterprises of Leningrad and Kharkov were located on the territory of the UTZ. Two plants were established on the turbine production sites: engine plant No. 76 for the production of tank diesel engines (currently the Ural diesel engine plant, UDMZ) and the Ural turbine plant itself.

During the war, UTZ was called the “Turbine Health Resort” - it was the only turbine building plant operating in the war years. The UTZ team restored and understaffed 32 turbines - the country's energy sector urgently needed turbine equipment. So, the plant actively participated in the restoration of Donbass stations, and a complete turbine AT-25-2 was manufactured for the Lisichanskaya CHPP (then SevDonGRES). In 1942, the production of ship turbines for naval ships was launched at the Ural Turbine Plant. Initially, a 16 MW turbine was manufactured; since 1943, the plant began to manufacture 22-MW TV-6 ship turbines. Employees of the Ural Turbine Plant were involved in the restoration of the ships of the Black Sea Fleet, which participated in the defense of Odessa and Sevastopol.

In the post-war period, the company secured the glory of one of the leaders in domestic power engineering. During this period, UTZ created its own design bureau, the plant switched to independent implementation of turbine projects with a capacity of 25, 50 and 100 MW.

The legendary turbine was the T-100 cogeneration turbine. Sotka inherited the best qualities of its predecessors and at the same time became a model of an extremely economical heating unit, which has not yet been done not only in our country, but also in the world. For the development of the design, the development of mass production and the introduction of the T-100 turbine into the national economy, a group of plant workers was awarded the Lenin Prize in 1966. The Ural Turbine Plant produced 245 turbines of the T-100 family of various modifications, launched in different years at 106 TPPs and state district power stations in 13 countries of the world.

For the needs of the developing gas industry in the late 1950s. The plant has mastered the production of gas turbines. Its own design school was created, in 1965 the first serial gas turbine GT-6-750 was manufactured.

In the 1970s, a series of Utilization Gas Turbines (GUBT) for the iron and steel industry was created. Units began to be delivered both to domestic metallurgical enterprises and for export. For the first time in the USSR, gas turbines are awarded the state quality mark.

In 1973, the industrial production of steam heating turbines with a capacity of 250 MW was mastered, the most powerful in the entire history of the plant. The T-250 turbine incorporated the achievements of science and technology of that time and was designed to supply heat and electricity to large cities of the Soviet Union. From 1972 to 1992, the Ural Turbine Plant manufactured 32 such machines for power plants in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Minsk, Kiev, Kharkov. Only in Moscow 19 turbines of this model are installed. Currently, the Ural Turbine Plant has manufactured a T-295 / 335-23.5 steam turbine designed to change the T-250. This is the most powerful cogeneration turbine in the world in terms of steam extraction. Its maximum power is 335 MW.

In total, over the years the plant has produced 899 steam turbines (as of 01/08/2017). More than half of all cogeneration turbines installed in Russian power plants were manufactured by UTZ.

In September 2003, the turbine production of OJSC Turbomotor Plant was separated into an independent enterprise - JSC Ural Turbine Plant. The plant regained its first name, while retaining significant scientific and technical potential and extensive experience in designing and manufacturing products with the TMZ brand. Products with the TMZ brand operate in more than 60 countries. Factory turbines operate in Japan, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, India, Korea, and China.

The latest development of the Russian design school of turbine engineering is the T-295 / 335-23.5 power steam turbine, the world's largest cogeneration turbine. Its electric power reaches 335 MW, and the heat load is 385 Gcal / h. This is enough to provide heat to more than 100 thousand apartments. The new turbine was manufactured for TPP-22 of Mosenergo PJSC. The use of a modern electro-hydraulic control system has expanded the permissible operating parameters of the T-295 turbine and made it possible to achieve the reliability, availability and energy security of the installation, which are unique to world practice. The electrical part of the regulation and protection system is based on modern Russian-made industrial controllers. The temperature of fresh steam and intermediate overheating steam in the T-295 turbine reaches 565 ° C. For the manufacture of parts operating under similar conditions, martensitic steels with a high chromium content were used. This solution allowed to increase the estimated resource of parts up to 250 thousand hours. In total, successful design solutions, as well as the use of new technologies, materials and approaches, made it possible to increase the turbine efficiency by 4%, installed capacity by 30 MW (up to 335 MW), and heat load - up to 372.5 Gcal / h. At the same time, the T-295 has a unique range of operating modes for a cogeneration turbine and in this parameter easily competes with condensing turbines of other manufacturers. A turbine alone can save power plants up to $ 3 million a year in fuel alone.
