Boilers or Steam Generators Generate steam at desired rate, pressure and temperature by
burning fuel in its furnace. The boiler is that part of the steam generator where phase change
(or boiling) occurs from liquid (water) to vapour (steam), essentially at constant pressure and temperature.
Steam Turbine Steam turbine is a mechanical device that extracts thermal energy
from pressurized steam, and converts it into useful kinetic (rotational) energy which rotates the steam turbine.
Most steam turbines rotate at 3000 rpm or 3600 rpm.
Electric Generator Electrical generator is a device that converts kinetic energy to
electrical energy, generally using electromagnetic induction. Electric Generators are rotated by Steam Turbines at 3000 rpm or
3600 rpm

Basic Boiler TypesBasic Boiler Types
Up to an operating pressure of around 190Kg Bar in the evaporator part of the boiler, the cycle is Sub-Critical. In this case a drum-type boiler is used because the steam needs to be separated from water in the drum of the boiler before it is superheated and led into the turbine.
Above an operating pressure of 220Kg Bar in the evaporator part of the Boiler, the cycle is Supercritical. The cycle medium is a single phase fluid with homogeneous properties and there is no need to separate steam from water in a drum. Drumless or Once-through boilers are therefore used in supercritical cycles.
Advanced Steel types must be used in Supercritical boilers for components such as the boiler and the live steam and hot reheat steam piping that are in direct contact with steam under elevated conditions
Sub-critical Boilers: Steam conditions up to 220Kg bas/ 540°C are achieved
Supercritical Boilers: Steam conditions up to 300 Kg Bar/600°C/620°C are achieved using steels with 12 % chromium content.
Supercritical Once Through Power PlantSupercritical Once Through Power Plant
Power Generation Cycle Efficiency primarily depends on the temperature difference across steam turbine.
Higher boiler outlet temperature results in higher difference.
Higher steam temperatures is also linked to increased pressures to keep the steam volume within manageable limits.
At pressures in excess of 220Kg bar, the fluid is termed supercritical.
The increased pressure also increases cycle efficiency and, although this increase is a second-order effect compared with the effect of temperature, but it can still make an important contribution to increasing overall plant efficiency.
“SupercriticalSupercritical" is a thermodynamic expression describing the state of a substance where there is no clear distinction between the liquid and the gaseous phase (i.e. they are a homogenous fluid). Water reaches this state at a pressure above around 220 Kg Bar.
Supercritical Once Through Power PlantSupercritical Once Through Power Plant
Supercritical coal fired power plants have higher efficiencies of almost 45%
Supercritical Power plants have lower emissions than sub-critical plants at any given power output.

Circulating Fluidized Bed BoilersCirculating Fluidized Bed Boilers
A bed of sand, ash and fuel particles is fluidized by the combustion air, which is blown into the bed through the bottom.
Due to high air/flue gas velocity the fuel is carried over in the combustion gases.
The solid material is then separated in a cyclone and recycled to the lower section of the bed.
CFB combustion process is ideally suited to burning low-quality fuels, fuels with a high moisture content 'waste-type' fuels. All coals, lignite, petroleum coke,
biomass, waste coal, refuse-derived fuels, agricultural and pulping waste, and municipal solid waste
Typical Large Steam TurbineTypical Large Steam Turbine
Steam turbine is a mechanical device that extracts thermal energy from pressurized steam, and converts it into useful kinetic (rotational) energy by expansion.
The expansion takes place through a series of fixed blades (nozzles) and moving blades.
The moving blades rotate on the turbine rotor and the fixed blades are concentrically arranged within the circular turbine casing which is substantially designed to withstand the steam pressure.
Most steam turbines rotate at 3000 rpm or 3600 rpm.
Basic Steam TurbinesBasic Steam Turbines
The Turbine designs for a Supercritical plant are similar to the sub-critical except that special materials required for the casings and walls for withstanding high Temperatures and pressures in Supercritical Steam Turbines.
High Pressure (HP) Turbine: In order to cater for the higher steam parameters in supercritical cycles, materials with an elevated chromium content which yield higher material strength are selected.
Intermediate Pressure (IP) Turbine Section: In supercritical cycles there is a trend to increase the temperature of the reheat steam that enters the IP turbine section in order to raise the cycle efficiency. As long as the reheat temperature is kept at 560 DEGC there is not much difference in the IP section of Sub critical and Super Critical plants.
Low Pressure (LP) Turbine Section: The LP turbine sections in supercritical plants are not different from those in subcritical plants.
Combined Cycle PlantsCombined Cycle Plants Term Combined Cycle is used to describe process that uses
combination of more than one thermodynamic cycles.
Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) means a combination of gas turbine generator (Brayton cycle) with turbine exhaust waste heat boiler and steam turbine generator (Rankine cycle) for the production of electric power.

Load Demand Computer(LDC)
Load Demand ComputerLoad Demand Computer
Invented by Westinghouse for coordinated unit control
Allows to control a unit in different modes of operation: Turbine Follow Mode: Turbine control with throttle pressure –
The turbine follows the boiler load, LDC tracks the actual unit load and calculates setpoint for the boiler (MW loop is not in use)
Boiler Follow Mode: Boiler control with live steam pressure –
The boiler adapts the steam generation to the consumption required by the turbine, LDC tracks the actual unit load and calculates the setpoint for turbine valve position (MW loop is not in use)
Coordinated Control Mode:
Either turbine or boiler controls live steam pressure and boiler or turbine respectively (MW loop is in use for turbine or boiler)
Load Demand ComputerLoad Demand Computer
LDC is a software model of the process, which calculates on-line all required control setpoints using “feed-forward”
Operator sets the required load or MW demand LDC calculates the main setpoints separately for the boiler
and the turbine control structures The structure for boiler recalculates setpoints for loops
controlling air and fuel Tunable function generator algorithms calculate setpoints for
loops controlling the actuators LDC allows to keep unit in automatic control also during
runbacks or trips

Critical safety signals are wired as redundant I/O for maximum boiler safety.
An automatic start sequence ensures correct completion of boiler air purge and satisfies safety permissives before fuel firing, preventing operator error.
Continued monitoring of boiler conditions actuates a safety shutdown trip if unsafe conditions develop.

6 to 8 Pulverizers (Mills) needed in each boiler to supply Pulverized coal to the burners
One mill normally supplies pulverized coal to one burner level. Additional mills supply each additional burner level on a one-for-one basis.
There are between four and eight burners per level. This depends upon the type of furnace, e.g. wall fired, tangential, split furnace, etc.
With dual fuel firing, there will also be oil guns /gas nozzles on one or more burner levels. There will be four to eight guns / nozzles per level.
