Abstract :
A new on-line method of measuring air leakage rate of turbine vacuum system was introduced in this paper, and then the measuring principle was described and the formula of calculation was deduced. On this basis, an experimental system of simulating the condenser´s vacuum pipe was build. By the comparison of the experimental data with the calculation results using the new method proposed in this paper, the correction of the proposed method was verified.
