Steam turbines and its associated systems(ntpc ramagundam)abdul mohammad
Steam turbine is an excellent prime mover to convert heat energy of steam to mechanical energy. Of all heat engines and prime movers the steam turbine is nearest to the ideal and it is widely used in power plants and in all industries where power is needed for process.
In power generation mostly steam turbine is used because of its greater thermal efficiency and higher power-to-weight ratio. Because the turbine generates rotary motion, it is particularly suited to be used to drive an electrical generator – about 80% of all electricity generation in the world is by use of steam turbines.
Rotor is the heart of the steam turbine and it affects the efficiency of the steam turbine. In this project we have mainly discussed about the working process of a steam turbine. The thermal efficiency of a steam turbine is much higher than that of a steam engine.

Low power architecture of logic gates using adiabatic techniquesnooriasukmaningtyas
The growing significance of portable systems to limit power consumption in ultra-large-scale-integration chips of very high density, has recently led to rapid and inventive progresses in low-power design. The most effective technique is adiabatic logic circuit design in energy-efficient hardware. This paper presents two adiabatic approaches for the design of low power circuits, modified positive feedback adiabatic logic (modified PFAL) and the other is direct current diode based positive feedback adiabatic logic (DC-DB PFAL). Logic gates are the preliminary components in any digital circuit design. By improving the performance of basic gates, one can improvise the whole system performance. In this paper proposed circuit design of the low power architecture of OR/NOR, AND/NAND, and XOR/XNOR gates are presented using the said approaches and their results are analyzed for powerdissipation, delay, power-delay-product and rise time and compared with the other adiabatic techniques along with the conventional complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) designs reported in the literature. It has been found that the designs with DC-DB PFAL technique outperform with the percentage improvement of 65% for NOR gate and 7% for NAND gate and 34% for XNOR gate over the modified PFAL techniques at 10 MHz respectively.

This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

CHAPTER - 1
INTRODUCATION
Everybody must be having a thought that a thermal power plant is a place where
electricity is produced. But do you know how it is produced? How the chemical energy
stored in fuel is converted into heat energy which forms the input of power plant i.e.
steam and electrical energy produced by generator? Power is the single most important
necessity for common people and industrial development of nation. In a conventional
power plant the energy is first converted to a mechanical work and then is converted to
electrical energy .Thus the energy conversions involved are:
The first energy conversion takes place in Boiler or Steam Generator, second in
Turbine and the last conversion takes place in the Generator.
A thermal power station is a power plant in which the prime mover is steam
driven. Water is heated, turns into steam and rotates the turbine which drives an electrical
generator after that steam pass through in a condenser where it condensed and recycled to
again in boiler; this whole cycle is known as RANKINE CYCLE.

1.3 PRINCIPLEOF OPERATION
For each process in a vapour power cycle, it is possible to assume a hypothetical or ideal
process which represents the basis intended operation and do not produce any extraneous
effect like heat loss.
For steam boiler, this would be a reversible constant pressure heating process of
water to form steam.
For turbine,the ideal process would be a reversible adiabatic expansion of steam.
For condenser, it would be a reversible a constant pressure heat rejection as the
steam condenser till it becomes saturated liquid.
For pump, the ideal process would be the reversible adiabatic compression of
liquid ending at the initial pressure.
When all the above four cycles are combined, the cycle achieved is called RANKINE
CYCLE. Hence the working of a thermal power plant is based upon Rankine Cycle with
some modification.
Fig 1.3 – Operation principal
1.4 THERMAL PLANT OPERATION PROCEDURE
The basic understanding of the modern thermal power station in terms of major systems
involved can be done under three basic heads viz. generating steam from coal, conversion
of thermal energy to mechanical power and generation & load dispatch of electric power.
COAL TO STEAM- The coal is burnt at the rate upto 200 tonnes per hour. From
coal stores, the fuel is carried on convey or belts to bunkers through coal tipper. It
then falls in to coal pulverizing mill, where it is grounded into powder as fine as
flour. Air is drawn into the boiler house by drought fan and passed through
16. [16]
Preheaters. Some air is passed directly to bunker and rest, through primary air
fan, to pulverizing mill where it is mixed with powdered coal. The mixture is then
carried to bunker of furnace where it mixes with rest of the air and burns to great
heat. This heats circulating water and produces steam, which passes to steam
drum at very high pressure. The steam is then heated further in the Superheater
and fed to high pressure cylinder of steam turbine. . The spent steam is sent to
condenser, where it turns back to water called condensate. Condensate is sent
tolower part of steam drum through feed heater and economizer. The flue gases
leaving boiler are used for heating purpose in feed heater, economizer, and air
Preheater. The flue gases are then passed to electro-static precipitator and then,
through draught fan, to chimney.
STEAM TO MECHANICAL POWER- Steam first enters the high pressure
cylinder of turbine where it passes over a ring of stationary/fixed blades which
acts as nozzle and directs steam onto a ring of moving blades. Steam passes to the
other cylinders through reheater and the process is repeated again and again. This
rotates the turbine shaft upto 3000rpm. At each stage, steam expands, pressure
decreases and velocity increases.
MECHANICAL POWER TO ELECTRICAL POWER- To obtained the
electrical power from mechanical power we connect the shaft to an alternator’s
armature. When the armature is rotated and electric current is produced in the
stator’s windings. The generated electricity is of order 25,000 volts.
SWITCHING AND TRANSMISSION-The produced electricity is can’t to
transmitted as this state so It is passed to a series of three switches called an
isolator, a circuit-breaker, and another isolator. From circuit-breaker, current is
taken to bus bars and then to another circuit-breaker with it’s associated isolator
before being fed to the main Grid. Each generator has its own switching and
transmission arrangement. Three-phase system is used for power transmission.
17. [17]
CONTROL AND INSTRUMENTATION- Control and Instrumentation (C & I)
systems are provided to enable the power station to be operated in a safe and
efficient manner while responding to the demands of the national grid system.
These demands have to be met without violating the safety or operational
constraints of the plants. For example, metallurgical limitations are important as
they set limits on the maximum permissible boiler metal temperature and the
chemical constituents of the Feed water. The control and Instrumentation system
provides the means of the manual and automatic control of plant operating
conditions to maintain an adequate margin from the safety and operational
constraints.
1.5 PULVERIZED COAL FUELED POWER PLANT
A typical pulverized coal fueled power plant is based on Rankine Thermodynamic cycle.
“A Rankine cycle is a vapour cycle Furnace that relies on the isentropic expansion of
high pressure gas to produce work”.Let us see a super heat Rankine cycle:
Fig1.4- Pulverized Coal Fueled Power Plant
This facility first produces steam in a boiler (steam generator). This steam is used to
rotate turbine which is connected to a shaft of generator. Hence electricity is produced
here. The used steam is then condensed in a condenser, and the condensed liquid is used
again in the steam generator. This is a simple phenomenon, understood by everybody.
For all this we need a fuel. As the name suggest here coal is used as fuel. Coal is one of
the cheapest and most preferred fossil fuel used as a key to most of the power
18. [18]
plants.Usually delivered by train from Mines to the Coal Handing Plant (CHP). The CHP
unloads this it become more economical to unload the coal. Then the coal stacked,
reclaimed, crushed, and conveyed it to the storage silos near the steam generator. Then it
is fed through the Feeder to the Pulverizer. Feeder is mainly used to weight the amount of
coal going to the Pulverizer per hour. From the Feeder the coal is fed to the Pulverizer
which powders it and then it is carried to the steam generator using pressurized air.
Within the steam generator the coal is atomized and burned and the heat energy produced
is used for producing steam. Here two types of steam namely superheated & reheated
steam are produced in a cycle. The steam turbine generator converts the thermal energy
of superheated and reheated steam to electrical energy. The first energy conversion is
carried in Boiler or steam generator; the second is carried out in Turbine and the last one
carried out in the Generator.
Cooling water for the condenser is supplied by the circulating water system, which takes
the heat removed from the condenser and rejects it to the cooling towers or other heat
sink. This all working is controlled from a single place called control room. It enables the
operator to direct the plant operation for reliable and efficient production of electrical
energy. This is achieved by the control system installed by the C & I group. These are
DAS (Data Acquisition System), ACS (Analog Control System), FSSS (Furnace
Safeguard Supervisory System), and other relays governing numerous activities. Last but
not the least is the switching and transmission methods used here. The generated power
cannot be transmitted as such. It is stepped up to 132 KVA or 400 KVA then passed
through a series of three switches an isolator, a circuit breaker and an isolator. Three
phase system is used for the power transmission.Each generator has its own switchyard
and transmission arrangement.

CHAPTER-2
COAL HANDLING PLANT (C.H.P.)
2.1 INTRODUCTION:
Every thermal power plant is based on steam produced on the expanse of heat energy
produced on combustion of fuel. Coal is categorized as follows depending upon fixed
carbon, volatile matter and moisture content:
Anthracite having 86% fixed carbon
Bituminous having 46 to 86% fixed carbon
Lignite having 30% fixed carbon and
Peat having 5 to 10% fixed carbon
Coal from mines is transported to CHP in railway wagons. It is unloaded in track
hoppers. Each project requires transportation of large quantity of coal mines to the power
station site. Each project is established near coal mine which meets the coal requirements
for the span of its entire operational life. For the purpose each plant has Merry Go-Round
(MGR) rail transportation system. The loading operation of the coal rake takes place
while it is moving under the silo at a present speed of 0.8 Km/hr. the loading time for
each wagon is one minute. For unloading of coal from the wagons an underground track
hopper is provided at the power station.
The term coal handling plant means to store and to handle the coal which is
transported by the train and convey to the bunkers with the help of belt conveyers.
Through the bunkers coal is transferred to the coal mill and drifted to the furnace. The
coal handling plant includes wagon tippler, conveyer belt, crusher house, stacker &
reclaimer, bunkers & coal mill.
COAL SUPPLY IN KaTPP-Ministry of coal, Govt. of India has allotted Paras east and
Kanta basin coal blocks to RVUN in Chhattisgarh state.

CHAPTER-3
IMPORTANT PARTS OF THERMALPOWER PLANT
3.1 BOILER
Boiler can simply defined as the device where any liquid is boiled or Boiler may be
defined as a device that is used to transfer heat energy being produced by burning of fuel
to liquid, generally water, contended in it to cause its vaporization. Boiler, in simple
terms, can be called “Steam Generator”.
In simple way, boiler is a device used for producing steam. There are two types of boiler
(depending upon tube content):
a) Fire tube boiler
b) Water tube boiler
Here, boiler used is of water type. In the boiler, heat energy transfer takes place through
tube walls and drum. The gases lose their heat to water in the boiler or superheated. The
escape heat is used to heat the water through economizer.
ID and FD fans are used to produce artificial draught. The fuel oil is used to ignite the
boiler and pulverized coal is lifted from the coal mills by PA fans.
Various motors use in boiler are different rating and parameters 32KW,15KW ,11KW &
3.3KW.
Fig 3.1-Boiler
25. [25]
BOILER AUXILIARIES-Efficiency of a system is of most concerned. Thus it is very
important to maintain a system as efficient as possible. So Boiler auxiliaries help in
improving boiler’s efficiency. Following are the important auxiliaries used
ECONOMISER: Its purpose is to preheat feed water before it is introduced
into boiler drum by recovering heat from flue gases leaving the furnace.
SUPER HEATER: It increase the temperature of steam to super heated
region.
REHEATER: It is used for heat addition and increase the temperature of
steam coming from high pressure turbine to 540 deg.
DRAFT FANS: They handle the supply of air and the pressure of furnace.
BOILER MOUNTINGS-These are used for the safe operation of boiler. Some example
of mountings used are water level indicator in drum, furnace temperature probe, reheat
release valve, pressure gauges indicating steam pressure etc.
3.2 TURBINE
Turbine is an m/c in which a shaft is rotated steadily by the impact of reaction of steam
of working substance upon blades of a wheel. It converts the potential energy or heat
energy of the working substance into mechanical energy. When working substance is
steam it is called ‘Steam Turbine’
In the steam turbine the pressure of the steam is utilized to overcome external resistance
and the dynamic action of the steam is negligibly small.
PRINCIPLE-Working of the steam turbine depends wholly upon the dynamic
action of steam. The steam is caused to fall with pressure in a passage of nozzle,
due to this fall in pressure, a whole amount of heat energy is converted into
mechanical energy & steam is set moving with the reactor velocity. The rapidly
moving particle of steam enter the moving part of turbine and here suffers a
change in the direction of motion which givesrise to change of momentum and
therefore to a force. This constitutes a driving force to a turbine.
26. [26]
The passage of them/through the moving part of the turbine commonly called the blade,
may take place in such a manner that the pressure at the outlet sides of the blade is equal
to that of the inlet side. Such a turbine is broadly termed as outlet turbine or Impulse
type.
On the other hand, the pressure of the steam at outlet from the moving blade may be less
than that at type inlet side of the blade. The drop of pressure suffered by the steam during
its flow through the moving blades causes a further generation of kinetic energy within
the blades and adds to the propelling force which is applied to the turbine rotor, such a
turbine is broadly termed as Reaction Turbine. Here in Kalisindh Thermal Power
Project N600-16.7/587/537,Re-Het,Three Casing, Four Exhaust, Tandem Compound
Condenser Type Turbine Used.
The turbine is of tandem compound design with separate High
Pressure(HP),Indermediate Pressure(IP) and Low Pressure(LP) cylinders. The HP turbine
is of Single Flow type while IP and LP turbines are of Double Flow type .
The readily designed HP,IP and LP turbines are combined and sized to required
power output,steam parameters and cycle configuration to give most economical turbine
set.The design and constructional feature have proved their reliability in service and
ensure trouble free operation over long operating periods and at the same time ensuring
high thermal efficiencies.

3.4 CONDENSER
In condenser, the water passes through various tubes and steam passes through a chamber
containing a large number of water tubes (about 20000).
The steam gets converted into water droplets,when steam comes in contact with
water tubes. The condensate is used again in boiler as it is dematerialized water and 5-6
heats the water, which was in tubes, during the process of condensation. This water is
sent to cooling tower.
Condenser is installed below the LP exhaust. The condenser is of surface type
made of fabricated construction in single shell. The tube is of divided type double pass
arrangement, having two independent cooling water inlet, outlet and reverse and water
boxes. This arrangement facilitates the operation of one half of condenser when the other
half is under maintenance. The condenser is provided with integral air-cooling zone at
the centre from where air and non-condensable gases are continuously drawn out with the
help of mechanical vacuum pump.
Area of condenser = 9655 sq m
Cooling water flow rate = 2400 cubic m/Hr.
3.5 COOLING TOWER
It is used to reject heat into the atmosphere. There are two types of the cooling tower.
(1) Natural draft.
(2) Forced draft.
Natural draft - tower used vary large concrete chimney to introduce air through the
media. They are generally used for water flow rate about 45000 m3 /hour. It is used in
utility power station. Here hight of cooling tower is 202M.
Forced draft- tower utilize large fans to force or suck air through circulating water. The
water falls downward over fills surface which helps in increase the contact time between
the water and air. This held maximize heat transfer between two media. Cooling rates
depend upon fan diameter and speed. This type of tower much wider used.
31. [31]
In KaTPP two natural draught cooling towers (2 NDCT) is present with height 202 m
each for each unit.
It is a structure of height 202 m (tallest in the world) designed to cool the water(coming
from condenser) by natural draught. The cross sectional area is less at the centre just to
create low pressure so that ate air can lift up due to natural draught and can carry heat
from spherical drops. The upper portion is also diverging for increasing the efficiency of
cooling tower. Hence it is named as natural draught cooling tower.
This structure is constructed in r.c.c. shell poud floor and its derified water channel
c.w. For bay. The entire structure is supported combined circular rafting constructed in
different segments with slanted colomn fotting to support 17 m hight circular sectional
reckarcolmns. This r.c.c. shell of 150 m dia. And 205 m height . It is made of m 50 grade
r.c.c. Which was also done at sight. There will be 200 colomnspoud floors that will
generate cascading effect for cooling. The cooling tower shell be capable of cooling the
rated quality of water
Fig 3.5-Cooling Tower

3.6 WATER TREATMENT PLANT
As everyone know that the cost of any thermal power plant is cores of rupees.So major
problem of any thermal power plant is that how to prevent the corrosion. The water
available can’t be used in boilers as such. The objective of water treatment plant is to
produce the boiler feed water so that there shall be.
No scale formation ·
No corrosion ·
No priming or forming problems
Water used in thermal power plant is called ‘Dematerialized Water’ or DM Water.
The treated water is called ‘Dematerialized Water’. The treatment process can be divided
in two sections:
1. Pre-treatment section.
2. Demineralization section
PRE-TREATMENT SECTION:- Pre-treatment plant removes suspended solids
like clay, salt, plants, micro-organisms etc form raw water to give clarified water.
Suspended solids can be separable or non-separable. Separable solids are heavier & large
and can easily be removed by an aerator. Non-separable solids have finer size and take
long to settle down. Hence they are required to be flocculated. In this, water is first dozed
with lime and alum. This forces finer particles to coagulate increasing their weight and
size. Non-separable solids can now be separated in clariflocculator. The clarified water is
then stored in clarified water storage tanks.
DEMINERALISATION SECTION The clarified water now goes to FCA
(activated carbon filter) where it de-chlorinated. Water then passes through cation
exchanger where weak and strong acidic cations are removed on adding resin.
Water Treatment Stage:-
River (raw water) → Clarification → Filtration → Demineralization
33. [33]
CLARIFICATION AND FILTERATION OF WATER:-
River water contains different impurities i.e.
Suspended impurities
Biological impurities
Soluble impurities
Colloidal impurities
WORKING:- The raw water enters through valve and than chemicals is added. Chlorine
and alum are added. Chlorine is added to remove bacteria etc. Alums are added to make
the impurities heavier, once the impurities become heavier than a no. of flocs are formed.
By mixing the alums, heavy impurities are settle down due to gravity and later removed.
The time required for the formation of floc is called retention time which is generally 3
hours but this can’t be achieved as it require large tank. In order to cope up the limitation
CLARRIFOCCULATION TANK is used.
This flocculation tank is consist of
1. Clarification zone
2. Flocculationzon
Clarrifocculation tank has a central pillar which has four windows at 90 degree.
The outer circle is half of windows so that level of water is arise then it flows down
through these windows into overflow channel. After mixing from flash mixer, the water
passes on to central pillar and follows the path as shown in fig. i.e. it moves to max. Floc
area and comes out from window at 3.5 m height. The downward flow is through
perforated wall which sinks the raw water. Due to the long path a retention time of 4 hour
is easily available.
The capacity of water in this plant is 1000*1000 lt./hr.In flocculation zone max.floc is
formed and after removing it, the clear water moves into clarifier. Some impurities are
weightless and do not settle down so they are passed through filter beds. There are two
types of filter beds.
1. Gravity filter bed.
2. Forced filter bed.
34. [34]
In FORCED FILTER BEDS raisins are added to settle down the impurities. In
GRAVITY FILTER BEDS graded gravels are arranged. At bottom gravels of big size are
there and above other gravels are arranged according to size. Above it grit and most of
the above is sand. The clarified water enters into sump. Sump is fully closed leaving one
window to see the level. Since it is fully closed hence no foreign matter can enter into it.
3.2 DEMINERALIZING PLANT
Water is mainly used for cooling purpose of different parts like bearing winding etc. in
KaTPP. For this water should be Demineralized (D.M. water).
In this plant process water is freed from all dissolved salts. Equipments for
demineralization plant is supplied and erected by GE INDUSTRIAL (India) Ltd.This
plant consists of two streams, each stream with activated carbon filter, weak acid, carbon
exchanger and mixed bed exchanger. The filter water goes to DM water plant through
250 dia header from where a header top off has been taken off to softening plant. Two
filtered water booster pumps are provided on filtered water line for meeting the pressure
requirement in DM plant.
When pressure drop across filter exceeds a prescribed limit from the activated
carbon filter enter works acid carbon unit. The dilation water enter the weak base anion
exchanger unit water then enters degassifier unit where free CO2 is scrubbed out of water
by upward counter flow of low pressure air flow through degassifier lower and degassed
water is pumped to strong base exchanger(anion–exchanger).
PH VALUE OF WATER:- This is recommended to feed the water in the boiler at 25
degree centigrade and pH value is 8.2 to 9.2 up to 28 days and the pressure is 59 Kg
cm2.
35. [35]
CHAPTER 4
ESP AND AHP SYSTEM
4.1 ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR (ESP):
Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) is equipment, which utilizes an intense electric force to
separate the suspended particle from the gases. In India coal is widely used to generate
power. The exhaust gases are emitted directly into the atmosphere, it will cause great
environmental problems. So it is necessary to extract this dust and smoke before emitted
the exhaust gases into atmosphere. There are various methods of extracting dust but
electrostatic precipitator is the most widely used. It involves electric changing of
suspended particle, collection of charge particles and removal of charge particles from
collecting electrode. Its various other advantages are as follows:
It has high efficiency i.e. about 99%
Ability to treat large volume of gases at high temperature
Ability to cope with the corrosive atmosphere.
It offers low resistance to the flow of gases.
It requires less maintenance.
WORKING PRINCIPLE- The electrostatic precipitator utilizes electrostatic forces to
separate dust particles from the gases to be cleaned. The gas is passed through a chamber,
which contains steel plates (vertical) curtains. Theses steel curtains divide the chamber
into number of parallel paths. The framework is held in place by four insulators, which
insulate it electrically from all parts , which are grounded. A high voltage direct current is
connected between the framework and the ground, thereby creating strong electric field
between the wires in the framework curtains.
Strong electric field develops near the surface of the wire creates Corona
Discharge along the wire.Thus ionized gas produces +ve and –ve ions. In the chamber
plates are positively charged whereas the wire is negatively charged. Positive ions are
attracted towards the wire whereas the negative ions are attracted towards the plates. On
their way towards the curtains negative ions strike the dust particle and make them
negatively charged. Thus is collected on the steel curtains.
36. [36]
The whole process is divided into the following parts:
Corona Generation
Particle Charging
Particle Collection
Particle Removal
Details of the following are given below-
Corona Generation- Corona is a gas discharge phenomenon associated with the
ionization of gas molecules by electron collision in regions of high electric field
strength. This process requires non-uniform electric field, which is obtained by
the use of small diameter wire as one electrode and a plate or cylinder as the other
electrode. The corona process is initiated by the presence of electron in strong
electric field near the wire. In this region of corona discharge, there are free
electrons and positive ions . Both positive and negative coronas are used in
industrial gas cleaning.
In case of negative corona, positive ions generated are attracted towards the
negative electrode or wire electrons towards collecting plates. On impact of
negative and serve as principle means of charging dust.
Particle Charging- These are two physical mechanisms by which gas ions
impact charge to dust particles in the ESP. Particles in an electric fields causes
localized distortion in an electric filed so that electric field lines intersect with the
particles of maximum voltage gradient, which is along electric field lines. Thus
ions will be intercepted by the dust particles resulting in a net charge flow to the
dust particles. The ions will be held to the dust particles by an induced image
charge force between the ion and dust particle and become charged to a value
sufficient to divert the electric field lines from particles such that they do not
intercept.
Particle Collection- The forces acting on the charged particles are Gravitational,
Inertial, Electrostatic and Aerodynamically. The flow of gas stream is turbulent
flow because it causes the particles to flow in random path through ESP. Particles
will be collected at boundary layers of collector pates. But if flow is laminar,
37. [37]
charge will act on particles in the direction of collecting electrode. This force is
opposite to viscous drag force and thus in the short time, particle would achieve
Terminal (Migration) velocity at which electrical; and viscous forces are equal.
Thus the flow of the charged particle is decided by the vector sum of these forces
i.e. Turbulent.
Particle Removal- In dry removal of dust collected on plates, Rapping
Mechanism is used. It consider of a geared motor, Which moves along shaft
paced near the support collector electrode and is provided with cylindrical
hammer. On rotating of shaft these hammers strikes the supports causes plate to
vibrates and dust is removed from plates. Removed dust is collected in the
Hoppers below the precipitator. At the time of starting of precipitation of dust
from flue gases, the hoppers are at normal temperature but the ash collected is
very hot. So there is a chance of ash deposit at the exit of the hopper thus causing
problem of removing the ash. To avoid this , heater are provide which increase
the temperature at the exit point o the hopper thus avoiding any undue
accumulation of ash at starting . In other method, the water is allowed to flow
down the collector electrode and hence dust is collected in hoppers below.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION-
The whole ESP is divided into two parts-
Mechanical System
Electrical System
Here we will discuss only Mechanical System (i.e. Precipitator Casing, Emitting and
Collecting System and Hopper).
Precipitator Casing-Precipitator Casing is made of 6mm mild steel plates with
required stiffness. The precipitator casing is all welded construction comprising
of pre-fabricated walls and proof-panels. The roof carries the precipitator
internals, insulator housing, transformer etc. Both emitting and collecting systems
are hung from the top of the casing.
38. [38]
Emitting and Collecting System- Emitting System is the most important part of
ESP. Emitting system consists of rigid emitting frame suspended from four points
on the top of rigid emitting electrodes in the form of open spiral. The four
suspension points are supported on support insulators to give electrical insulation
to the emitting frame. The frame is designed to take up the retention forces of the
emitting electrode. The emitting electrode consists of hard drawn spiral wires and
are fastened with hooks to the discharge frame.
Collecting system mainly consists of collecting suspension frame, collection
electrodes and shock bars. Collecting electrode are made of 1.6 mm thick Mild
Steel sheets formed in ‘G’ Profile of 400mm width. Hook and guide are welded
on one end and shock iron on the dipped in rust preventive oil tank. Collecting
electrodes bundles are properly bundled in order to avoid any damage to
electrode.
Hoppers- Hoppers are seized to hold the ash for 8-hour collection and is provided
under the casing of ESP. It is of Pyramidal Shape and is 56 in number. It is
preferred to evacuate the hoppers at the earliest as long storage of dust in hopper
leads to clogging of hopper. Also at the bottom of hopper electrical heating is
provided to avoid any condensation, which could also lead to clogging of hopper.
Baffle plates are provided in each hopper to avoid gas leakage.
RAPPING MECAHISM FOR COLLECTING SYSTEM- During electrostatic
precipitation a fraction of dust will be collected on the discharge on the discharge
electrodes and the corona will be suppressed as the dust layer grows. So rapping is done
in order to remove this dust by hammering the electrodes. As the shaft rotates the
hammer tumbles on to the shock bar that transmits the blow to the electrode. The whole
rapping mechanism is mounted on a single shaft, which is collection of ash on the
collecting electrode.
39. [39]
Fig 4.1 -Electrostatic Precipitation Unit
4.2 ASH HANDLING PLANT (AHP)
The ash produced on the combustion of coal is collected by ESP. This ash is now
required to disposed off. This purpose of ash disposal is solved by Ash Handling Plant
(AHP). There are basically two types of ash handling process undertaken by AHP.
Dry Ash System
Ash Slurry System
DRY ASH SYSTEM- Dry ash is required in cement factories as it can be directly added
to cement. Hence the dry ash collected in the ESP hopper is directly disposed to silos
using pressure pumps. The dry ash from these silos is transported to the required
destination.
ASH SLURRY SYSTEM- Ash from boiler is transported to ash dump areas by means
of sluicing type hydraulic system which consists of two types of system-
Bottom Ash System
Ash Water System
40. [40]
BOTTOM ASH SYSTEM- In this system, the ash slag discharged from the furnace is
collected in water impounded scraper installed below bottom ash hopper. The ash
collected is transported to clinkers by chain conveyors. The clinker grinders churn ash
which is then mixed with water to form slurry.
ASH WATER SYSTEM-In this system, the ash collected in ESP hopper is passed to
flushing system. Here low pressure water is applied through nozzle directing tangentially
to the section of pipe to create turbulence and proper mixing of ash with water to form
slurry. Slurry formed in above processes is transported to ash slurry sump. Here extra
water is added to slurry if required and then is pumped to the dump area.
FLY ASH SYSTEM-Even though ESP is very efficient, there is still some ash, about
0.2%,left in flue gases. It is disposed to the atmosphere along with flue gases through
chimney.

CONTROLLING, SWITCHINGAND TRANSMISSION
5.1 CONTROL AND INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEM
5.1.1 SWITCHGEAR
The apparatus used for switching, controlling and protecting the electrical circuits and
equipment is known as switchgear.
A switch gear is one which makes or breaks electric circuit. Numerous problems
arise in erection, testing and commissioning of switch gear and various precautions are to
be made in operating and maintenance of switch gear.

VCB type.
(iv) EARTHED SWITCHES:-
Earthed switch is connected between line conductor and earth. Normally it is open when
line is disconnected. The Earthing switched is closed so as to discharge the voltage
trapped on line for high voltage and so the capacitor between line and earth is charged to
high voltage. For maintenance work their voltage are discharged to earth by closing the
earth switch.
(vi) INTER-LOCKING:-
The following type of inter- locking are provided The Circuit Breaker must be in open
position before it is lowered in this position. The Circuit Breaker can be closed only
raising the final plug in position. The Circuit Breaker can be closed before raising plug in

provided.
(vii) RELAYS:-
A Protective Relay is a device that detects the fault and initiates the operation of the
circuit breaker to isolate the defective element from the rest of the system.
43. [43]
5.1.2 PROTECTION
The fault, which may occur in stator winding are-
a. Phase to phase fault.
b. Phase to ground fault.
c. Line to line fault.
d. Overheating.
These faults are due to-
1. Over voltage is because of system transients, lightening switching surges or sudden
loss of load.
2. Insulation deterioration due to any matter, moisture, corona discharge, Hardening of
solid and vibration.
It is very necessary to minimize the tripping time during any fault so that the lamination
is not damaged. The repairing being affected by replacing the faulty stator bar.A delayed
clearance may damage the lamination, so fire may be caused and partial re- insulation of
core may be necessary.

5.3AUXILIARY SUPPLY
Electrical supply system is the most important part of the thermal power station. The
failure of even comparatively small equipment could result in the losing of load or being
put out of commission.
SOURCE OF SUPPLY: -
1. URGENT AUXILLARY: - Those are associated with running of units whose loss
would cause an immediate reduction unit output.
2. SERVICE AUXILLARY: - These are common auxiliaries associated with one or
more units. There loss would not affect the output of the unit after considerable time of
interval.
47. [47]
ELECTRICAL AUXILLARY SYSTEM: -
The KaTPP auxiliaries are operated at two voltages that are 6.6 KV and 415V. In respect
of 6.6KV system, auto change over facility is provided for change over of source of
supply from unit station in the case of unit trip out.
The station is having the following auxiliary system: -
a) More then 1500KW connected on 11KV.
b) More then 200KW less then 1500KW connected on 3.3KV.
c) Less then 200KW on 415V.

Fig 5.3- Switching and transmission
48. [48]
5.4 SWITCH YARD
Switchyard is considered as the HEART of the Power Plant. Power generated can be
worthful only if it is successfully transmitted and received by its consumers. Switchyard
plays a very important role as a buffer between the generation and transmission. It is a
junction, which carries the generated power to its destination (i.e. consumers).
Switchyard is basically a yard or an open area where many different kinds of equipments
are located (isolator, circuit breaker etc…), responsible for connecting & disconnecting
the transmission line as per requirement (e.g. any fault condition). Power transmission is
done at a higher voltage. (Higher transmission voltage reduces transmission losses).
Both units is 22KV in KaTPP. stepped-up to 400KV by the Generating transformer &
then transmitted to switchyard. Switchyards can be of 400KV, & 200KVIn SSTPS there
are two interconnected switchyards:-
(i) 400KV SWITCHYARD
(ii) 220KV SWITCHYARD
The 400KV & 220KV switch yard have conventional two buses arrangement with a
bus coupled breaker. Both the generator transformer and line feeder taking off from
switch yard can be taken to any of the two buses, similarly two station transformer
can be fed from any two buses. Each of these line feeders has been provided with by
pass isolators connected across line isolators and breaker isolators to facilitate the
maintenance of line breaker. Each 400KV & 220KV lines have provision of local
break up protection. In event of breaker which corresponding to bus bar differential
protection scheme and trips out all the breakers and connected zone bus bars
differential protection scheme for bus I & II. All the breaker of the connected zone
and bus coupler, breaker will trip in event of fault in that zone. Here in KaTPP 4 out
going line are as below:-
1) 400KV TO BTAWDA
2) 400KV TO BTAWDA
3) 220KV TO JHALAWAR
4) 220KV TO JHALAWAR
49. [49]
Each of the two bus bars has one P.T. one for each phase connected to it. Potential
Transformer are make in CROMPTON LTD. Each time line feeders has two nos. Core
for each phase capacitor voltage Transformer. for metering and protection are multicored
single phase, oil filled, nitrogen sealed and are provided at rate of one per phase.
400KV SWITCHYARD: There are on total 21 bays in this switchyard.
(A bay is basically a way for the incoming power from generator as well as outgoing
power for distribution).
3 for unit Generating Transformer.
2 for various distribution lines such as:
BTAWDA LINE
2 for Bus coupler.
2 for TBC.
2 for ICT.
1 for the Bus Section.
There are on total 2 buses in 400KV switchyard.
Bus-1
Bus-2
There are two transfer buses:
Transfer bus-1
Transfer bus-2
Transfer buses are kept spare and remain idle and are used only for emergency purposes.
BUS COUPLER-1 interconnects Bus-1 & Bus-2, respectively. Bus couplers are very
beneficial as they help in load sharing between the different buses.
TBC (TRANSFER BUS COUPLER): TBC is a bus coupler, which uses transfer bus
when there is any defect in the equipments used (circuit breakers & isolators) in any of
the bay. Thus, it offers a closed path through transfer bus for the flow of power in the
respective bus.
50. [50]
A described of electrical equipment at 400KV & 220KV system are as follows: -
Circuit Breaker(VCB& SF6)
Isolators
Current Transformers(C.T.)
Potential Transformers(P.T.)
Lighting Arresters
Earthing Arresters
Capacitor Voltage Transformers(C.V.T.)
Inter connected transformer (ICT)
CIRCUIT BREAKER:-
It is an automatic controlling switch used in power house, substation & workshop as well
as in power transmission during any unwanted condition (any fault condition-earth fault,
over-current, flashover, single phasing,). During such condition it cuts down the supply
automatically by electromagnetic action or thermal action. It can be used in off-load as
well as on-load condition. When a circuit breaker is operated by sending an
impulsethrough relay, C.B.contact is made or broken accordingly.During this making and
breaking, an arc is produced which has to be quenched; this is done by air, oil, SF6 gas
etc.
Depending on the medium being used C.B.s can be categorized into various
types.PLANT for 400 KV/220 KV switchyard only 4 main types are being used:-
ABCB (Air operated circuit breaker):- operated as well as arc quenched through air.
Air operated SF6 circuit breaker:-operated through air but arc quenching done through
SF6 gas.
MOCB (Minimum oil circuit breaker):-operated through spring action but arc
quenching done through oil (Aerosol fluid oil). Hydraulic operated SF6 circuit breaker:-
operated through hydraulic oil and arc quenching done through SF6 gas. Hydraulic
operated SF6 circuit breaker is the most efficient due to following reasons:-
1. Less maintenance.
2. Arc quenching capability of SF6 gas is more effective than air.
3. Heat transfer capacity is better in this C.B.
51. [51]
Here we use SF6 provided for each stage are SIEMENS made and rated for
420KV/245KV, 3150A Each pole has three interrupters which are oil filled with SF6 gas
at 7.5 Kg/sq. cm.Here in KaTPP 3AP1FI/3AP2FI type CB are used for 400KV &220KV
Switchyard.
Interlock Scheme of Circuit Breaker: -
Generator Breaker
Station Transformer Breaker
Line Feeder Breaker
Bus Coupler Breaker.
ISOLATERS:-
An isolator is also a switching device used to disconnect the line. As the name suggests it
isolate the line from the supply. It is always used in OFF-LOAD condition. Whenever
any fault occurs in the equipments present in the line, in order to remove the fault or
replace the device first of all supply is disconnected. But even after the disconnection of
the supply, the line remains in charged mode so before working on the device (to remove
fault) isolator should be made open.
Depending on the structure there are mainly two types of isolators:-
Pentagraph isolator.
Centre-break isolator (also known as Sequential isolator).
Pentagraph is generally used in buses whereas Centre-break (Sequential) is used in line.
Isolators may be operated in air (pneumatic), electrically or even manually.
LIGHTENING ARRESTER:-
It is a protective device, which protects the costly equipments such as overhead lines,
poles or towers, transformer etc. against lightening. As the name suggests it arrests the
lightening of very high voltage (crores of KV) and dump it into the ground. It works on
the principle of easy path for the flow of current. L.A. is connected in parallel with the
line with its lower end connected and the upper end projected above the pole of tower.
52. [52]
LIGHTENING MOST:
It is present at the highest point, at the topmost tower of the switchyard and is connected
together by wires forming a web. The reason for its presence at the topmost point is to
grasp the lightening before it can come, fall and damage the costly equipments present in
the switchyard.
EARTHING ISOLATORS:-
The term ‘Earthing’ means connecting of the non-current carrying parts of the electrical
equipment or the neutral point of the supply system to the general mass of earth in such a
manner that all times an immediate discharge of electrical energy takes place without
danger. An Earthing isolator is a large value of capacitance. This can be charged up to
line voltage. Earthing isolator is used to discharge the line capacitance and work on it.
WAVE TRAPER:-
It is an equipment used to trap the high carrier frequency of 500 KHz and above and
allow the flow of power frequency (50 Hz). High frequencies also get generated due to
capacitance to earth in long transmission lines. The basic principle of wave trap is that it
has low inductance (2 Henry) & negligible resistance, thus it offers high impedance to
carrier frequency whereas very low impedance to power frequency hence allowing it to
flow in the station.
CURRENT TRANSFORMER:-
This Transformer is used for basically two major functions: -
Metering which means current measurement.
Protection such as over current protection, overload earth fault protection, Bus-
bar protection, Bus differential protection.
NOTE: - Secondary of the C.T should be kept shorted because (when secondary is kept
open) even the presence of a very small voltage in the primary of C.T will prove to be
harmful as it will start working as a step-up Transformer & will increase the voltage to
such a high value that primary would not be able to bear it & will get burned. CT used
current ratio 1000:1 and range is 1A-5A.CT connected in series while PT in parallel.
53. [53]
PIPRI LINE:-
In the case of emergency, e.g. total grid failure we take the power from Pipri line for the
initial starting of the station (Main Plant).
CAPACITOR VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER(CVT):-
This Transformer performs mainly two major functions:-
Used for voltage measurement. The high voltage of 400 KV is impossible to
measure directly. Hence a C.V.T is used, (connected in parallel with the line)
which step-downs the voltage of 400 KV to 110 KV, comparatively easy to
measure.
The other most important function of C.V.T is that it blocks power frequency of
50Hz and allows the flow of carrier frequency for communication.Each of the
four line feeders provided with three capacitor volt transformer for metering and
synchronizing.
P.T (POTENTIAL TRANSFORMER):-
This Transformer is connected in parallel with the line with one end earthed. It is only
used for voltage measurement by stepping-down the voltage to the required measurable
value.
INTER CONNECTED TRANSFORMER (ICT):-
Purpose of ICT is simply interconnection between 400KV and 220KV Switchyard.
3xM1802-300/D-10.19.300MA2 Type autotransformer is used. manufacture by
CROMPTON GEARVES TRANSFORMER DIVISION BHOPAL
SURGE ARRESTER
The electricity is usually produced in the stator winding of the large modern generators at
about 25,000 volts and is fed through terminal connections to one side of a generator
transformer that steps up the voltage 132000, 220000 or 400000 volts. From here
conductors carry it to a series of three switches comprising an isolator, a circuit breaker
and another isolator.
54. [54]
The circuit breaker, which is a heavy-duty switch capable of operating in a fraction of a
second, is used to switch off the current flowing to the transmission lines. Once the
current has been interrupted the isolators can be opened. These isolate the circuit breaker
from all outside electrical sources.
Fig-5.4 : Overview of switchyard
From the circuit breaker the current is taken to the bus bars-conductors, which run the
length of the switching compound and then to another circuit breaker with its associated
isolates before feeding to the grid.
Three wires are used in a ‘three=phase’ system for large power transmission. The
centre of the power station is the control room. Here engineers monitor the output of
electricity, supervising and controlling the operation of the generation plant and high
voltage switch gear and directing power to the grid system as required.

CHAPTER-6
EFFICIENCY
6.1 EFFICIENCY
In KaTPP we convert potential energy or chemical energy of the fuel into heat by the
process of combustion. The heat is given to the water and it converts its form into steam.
The pressure of steam rotates the turbine, which is now in the form of kinetic energy.
Generator producing electrical energy, which is sand to different localities for utilization,
consumes this kinetic energy.
Efficiency in the case of electrical generator process can be expressed as the amount of
heat energy librated in the boiler compared with the amount of electrical energy
generated with it.
Efficiency is defined as the ratio of output to input. Efficiency of any thermal power
plant can be divided into four parts-
1) Cycle Efficiency
2) Boiler Efficiency
3) Generator Efficiency
4) Turbine Efficiency
Efficiency of thermal power plant is defined as in the term of overall efficiency
i.e. overall efficiency = cycle x boiler x generator x turbine efficiency
CYCLE EFFICIENCY- Cycle efficiency is defined as the ration of energy available for
conversion in work to the heat supplied to the boiler.
BOILER EFFICIENCY- Efficiency of boiler depends upon the following factors:
a) Dry flue gas loss: Increase by excess air in boiler.
b) Wet flue gas loss: Moisture in coal.
c) Moisture in combustion loss: Hydrogen loss.
GENERATOR EFFICIENCY- Efficiency of generator is about 98% also its efficiency
depends upon Copper iron loss and Windage losses
TURBINE EFFICIENCY- It means the efficiency of steam turbine in converting the
heat energy made available in the cycle into actual mechanical work.

CONCLUSION
Electricity is one of the most vital infrastructure inputs for economic development of a
country. The demand of electricity in India is enormous and is growing steadily. The vast
Indian electricity market, today offers one of the highest growth opportunities for private
developers
This is my first practical training in which I learned lot of things and seen lot of huge
machine like Turbine, Boiler, Generator, cooling tower and many other things.
The architecture of the power plant, the way various units are linked and the way
working of whole plant is controlled make the student realize that engineering is not just
learning the structure description and working of various machine but the great part is of
planning proper and management.
I think training has essential for any student. It has allowed an opportunity to get
an exposure of the practical implementation to theoretical fundamentals.
