Abstract:
1. A method for starting a steam turbine installation having a steam turbine and a steam generating installation for generating steam that drives the steam turbine, comprising: providing a reference component having an initial temperature of more than 250° C. at a starting time point, wherein the temperature of the reference component decreases until a minimum is reached that is more than 250° C., and then becomes higher; continuously measuring the temperature of the steam and of the reference component; impacting the reference component of the steam turbine installation with steam from the starting time point onwards, wherein the starting temperature of the steam is lower than the temperature of the reference component; and increasing the steam temperature with a start transient from the starting time point onwards where the starting temperature and the start transient are selected in such a way that the temperature change per unit time of the reference component is below a predetermined limiting value.
