Abstract

A nozzle segment separation tool for use with a pair of adjacent nozzle segments in a casing of a turbine. The nozzle segment separation tool may include a pair of support plates, a hydraulic cylinder positioned within the pair of support plates, a pushing bar attached to the hydraulic cylinder, a nozzle catch plate positioned within the pair of support plates, and a blocking pin inserted through the casing. The blocking pin forces the nozzle catch plate to engage a first nozzle segment of the pair of adjacent nozzle segments and blocks movement of the pushing bar such that the nozzle catch plate separates the pair of adjacent nozzle segments.
