Introduction A thermal power station is a power plant in which the prime mover is

steam driven. Water is heated, turns into steam and spins a steam turbine

which either drives an electrical generator or does some other works, like

ship propulsion. After it passes through the turbine, the steam is condensed

in a condenser and recycled to where it was heated. , this is known as a

Rankine cycle. The greatest variation in the design of thermal power

stations is due to the different fuel sources. Some prefer to use the term

energy center because such facilities convert forms of heat energy into

electrical energy.

Commercial electric utility power stations are m9ost usually constructed

on a very large scale and designed for continuous operation. Electric power

plants typically use three phase or individual phase electrical generators

to produce alternating current (AC) electric power at a frequency of 50Hz

or 60Hz depending on its location on the world. Other large companies or

institutions may have their own usually smaller power plants to supply

heating or electricity to their facilities especially if heat or stem is created

anyway for other purposes.

2.2 Phase#1 (Unit 1, 2 & 3) This phase consist of three steam units each capable of generating

210MW electricity. The supplier started delivery of equipment to site

in January, 1989 and after pre-assembly of equipment at site,

erection started in July, 1990. Unit#1 was commissioned in

September, 1993 and unit#2 in March, 1994.

Main Building: It contains the turbine hall having a span of 45m and dearator bay,

12m wide. The stem turbines which drive generators are of three

stage condensing type arranged transversely to the axis of turbine

hall. The operational platform is at elevation 12.6m and a

maintenance bay at ground flour near unit#1. The power plant is

designed block principle: boiler-turbine-generator-unit transformer.

The flue gas exhaust section of two units is connected with a 200m

high stack, outer section of which is a 195m high concrete shell.

Combined Auxiliary Building: The building is connected with the main building and it houses

water treatment plant to produce 100t/h dematerialized water for

the replenishment of station losses. Hydrogen plant to provide

hydrogen for cooling of generator's r rotor, maintenance shops,

laboratories, and central control room.

Fuel & Oil Facilities: Fuel oil facilities are constructed for decanting, oil storage,

preparation and supply of fuel to boiler nozzles. It also includes

HSD storage as well as oil facilities for reception, storage,

purification and centralized delivery of turbine oil and insulating oil

to power plant.

Hydraulic Structures: The cooling water used in condensers is re-circulated in closed cycle

with indicated draft cooling towers, the water is being cooled for

each unit in two cooling towers each consisting of eight fans, two

Page 6: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST BENIFICIENT AND MOST  MERCIFUL

6

cooling towers carry 27,500Cu m/h circulating water for condensers

of one unit.

Startup Boiler: One startup boiler using diesel oil as fuel with steam output of 50t/h

is provided to meet steam requirement for initial start of unit as

well as a backup of power plant auxiliaries. A separate stack of 30m

high has been constructed for it.

Electrical Part: The electricity generated at 15.75 KV is brought out from unit

transformer at 220 KV and feed to the national grid via a switch

yard. Power plant auxiliaries are fed at 6.6 KV.

2.3 Phase#2(Units#5 & 6): It consist of two units of 210MW each having equipment similar to

phase#1. Turbines are placed longitudinally in main building

outdoor boiler exhaust of two units is connected to one stack.

Overview: There are many different types of power plants including thermal

power plants and hydel power plants. Thermal power plants use fuel

such as gas, HSD, furnace oil or nuclear fuel to produce heat energy

that is converted to electrical energy through a series of intermediate

process. Hydel power plants convert the potential energy of water to

electrical power as it follows from higher to lower elevations.

The "traditional" thermal power plant is the Rankin cycle plant

named after the man who invented the cycle. A power plant cycle is

a series of processes in which a fluid generally water/steam, is used

to convert heat energy to mechanical energy. The Rankin cycle in its

simplest form consists of a boiler, a turbine, a condenser and a boiler

feed pump. Early plants had thermal efficiencies of approximately

25% to 30%. Only 25% to 30% of the heat energy in the fuel burned

in these plants was converted to electrical energy. The rest was lost

in various ways. The Rankin cycle has been refined considerably

over the years and made more efficient by the addition of

Page 7: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST BENIFICIENT AND MOST  MERCIFUL

7

components like economizer, feed water heaters, super heaters and

re-heaters. The efficiency of Rankin cycle has also been improved by

increasing the pressure and temperature of the cycle. The laws of

thermodynamics and considerations such as material limitation

have prevented any significant improvement sense then. Power

plants commonly use heat rate of measure efficiency.

3. Boiler The boiler is the main part of any thermal power plant. It converts the

fuel energy into steam energy. The fuel may be furnace oil, diesel oil,

natural gas or coal. The boiler may be fire from the multiple fuels. The

types of boiler use in the T.P.S phase#2 is "water tube type"

3.1 Water Tube Boilers:

In water tube boilers, boiler water passes through the tubes while the

exhaust gasses remain in the shell side, passing over the tube surface,

since tubes can typically withstand higher internal pressure then the

large chamber shell in a fire tube, water tube boilers are used where

high steam pressure (as high as 3,000Psi) are required.

Water tube boilers are also capable of high efficiencies and can generate

saturated or superheated steam. The ability of water tube boilers to

generate superheated steam makes these boilers particularly attractive

in applications that require dry, high-pressure, high-energy steam,

including steam turbine power generation.

waste heat to the atmosphere. Cooling tower may either use the

evaporation of water to remove process heat and cool the working

fluid to near the wet-bulb air temperature or relay solely on air to

cool the working fluid to dry –bulb air temperature. Common

application includes cooling the circulating water used in oil refiner,

chemical plants and power station.

3.3.7 Air Pre-Heater:

The purpose of the air pre-heater is to recover heat from the boiler

flue gas which increases the thermal efficiency of the boiler by

reducing the useful heat lost in the flue gas. As a consequence the fuel

gases are also sent to the fuel gas stack (or chimney) at a lower

temperature, allowing simplified design of the ducting and the flue

gas stack. It also allows control over the temperature of gases

leaving the stack.

3.3.8 Economizer:

Flue gases from large boilers are typically 450-650°F. Stack

economizer recover some of this heat for pre-heating water. The

water is most often used for boiler make-up water are some other

need that coincides with boiler operation. Stack economizers should

Page 13: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST BENIFICIENT AND MOST  MERCIFUL

13

be considered as an efficiency measure when large amounts of make-

up water are used (i.e. not all condensate is return to the boiler or

large amount of live steam are used in the process so there is no

condensate to return) or there is a simultaneous need for large

quantity of hot water for some other use. The savings potential is

based on existing stack temperature, the volume of make-up water

needed and the hours of operation.

4. Steam Turbine Turbine is used to convert the heat energy into mechanical energy.

Turbine used in T.P.S Muzaffar Garh is impulse-reaction steam turbine.

The load requirement is controlled by the steam flow through a

governing valve. Maximum steam at full load is 670t/h. When the load

at generator is suddenly decreased then the rpm (frequency) of the

generator is increased and to decrease the frequency we lower down the

steam flow which decreases the speed and maintains the frequency.

If load is suddenly increased rotor speed becomes slower, to increase

the speed, steam flow is increased.

Steam turbine has three parts.

5.1 Decanting Area:

The furnace oil that is used as a fuel in the burners of the boiler furnace

to produce the steam is transported to the TPS through two ways:

Page 17: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST BENIFICIENT AND MOST  MERCIFUL

17

o Oil tankers

o Train

For unloading of the fuel from oil tankers and train there is separate

unloading or de-canting station for each. The unload fuel oil is initially

stored in the underground reservoir; from there it is filled in the main

storage tanks.

02 pumps are used to fill the main storage tanks from the oil tankers

decanting area. One of them is active (on load) and other is standby.

5.2 Fuel Oil Tanks:

From the decanting area the furnace oil is filled in the storage tanks. From

there it is supplied to the burners of the boiler furnace after proper heating.

Usually one storage tank is called service tank, from there furnace oil is

supplied to the units. The furnace oil is filled in the other tanks first and

then filled in the service tank through recirculation pumps (RCP). The oil

in the tanks is kept heated at the temperature 75-80°C. There are total 06

storage tanks for furnace oil each having a volume of 20,000𝒎𝟑 hence each

can store 2,00,00,000 litter. There are two diesel oil storage tanks each

having capacity of 1000ton.

5.3 First Lift Pump:

6. The Generator The generator is a device which converts the mechanical energy into

electrical energy.

6.1 Working Principle:

The working principle of generator is based on the Faraday's law of

electromagnetic induction, which states that:

"The electromotive force is always produced in conductor which is placed

in the magnetic field when there is a relative motion between conductor

and the magnetic field".

If the output electrical energy is AC, it is called alternator. If the output

electrical energy is DC, it is called DC generator. In fact there is no

difference between alternator and Dc generator except the way the output

is obtained from the generator. In alternator the AC supply is produced in

the armature and supply is obtained through slip rings where as in the DC

generator are generated AC supply is obtained from the armature through

the spilt rings or commutator which converts the AC into DC. The

following three things are necessary for generation of electrical energy.

Magnetic field

Conductor

Relative motion between conductor and magnetic field

In the small generator the magnetic field is being produced in the stator

and the electromotive force is produced in the rotor through Faraday's law

of electromagnetic induction. The electromagnetic are used in the generator

to produce the magnetic field. In the large generator the magnetic field is

produced by the electromagnetic in the rotor and the electromagnetic force

is produced in the stator .the output is taken from the rotor, the rotor must

Page 20: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST BENIFICIENT AND MOST  MERCIFUL

20

Have high insulation due to high voltage induction and it must have heavy

insulation which may increase the size of rotor, and require more power

for the prime mover to rotate to this heavy rotor

Specification OEA.512.137 Manufacturing date 1993-2

6.3 Cooling System of Turbo Generator:

The first question arises here is that why we need cooling of the generator?

As the current flows in the stator and rotor of the generator is very high so

it increases the temperature of the stator and rotor winding. As the result

the resistance of the stator and rotor windings increases which increase the

power losses and may cause the insulation breakdown.

Two types of cooling are used in the turbo generator of TPS phase second.

Stator cooling

Rotor cooling

Page 22: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST BENIFICIENT AND MOST  MERCIFUL

22

6.3.1 Stator Cooling:

The stator of the turbo generator is cooled by distillated or demineralized

water. For this purpose a special plant is installed which prepares the

demineralized water for the stator cooling. This demi water is also used

for cooling system of the thirstier converts the water is passed through the

hollow conductor of stator winding for its cooling.

The demi water is necessary for the cooling of the stator winding because

raw water is not a pure insulator which may cause the flow of leakage

current when passed through stator winding.

The demi water plant removes the impurities and minerals of the raw

water and make it good insulator whose resistivity is taken at a minimum

level of 200K𝛀.cm. The demi water that process through the stator winding

absorbs the heat of stator winding makes it cool and becomes hot itself.

The demi water then passes through heat exchanger (coolers) where its

temperature is decreased by the circulating water coming from the cooling

towers. This demi water is also passed through the mechanical and

magnetic filters before passing through stator winding and thirstier

converts.

6.3.2 Water Parameters in Heat Exchangers: Rated temperature of cooled water at inlet 32°C

Minimum temperature of cold water 15°C

Number of gas heat exchangers 02

Rated water flow in on heat exchanger 150m3/h 6.3.3 Rotor Cooling:

The rotor cooling is done by H2 gas. Hydrogen is used for the following

purposes:

Its heat exchange capability is much better than other gases.

It is very lighter than other gases so do not overload the rotor.

Its preparation is very easy and cheap.

Page 23: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST BENIFICIENT AND MOST  MERCIFUL

23

Hydrogen gas is filled in the generator and maintained at a pressure of

4Kg/cm2. It takes all the heat of the rotor and cools the rotor winding and

gets warmed it. For the cooling of the gas there are four gas cooler inside

the generator on each corner. Circulating water of the cooling tower is used

in the gas cooler for hydrogen cooling.

Hydrogen gas is explosive if it is combined with oxygen under pressure so

too avoid any leakage of gas and entrance of air inside the generator the

rotor assembly is sealed by the seal oil whose pressure is at least

0.7Kg/cm2 more than hydrogen gas inside the generator.

When the generator is turned off for a long time for maintenance purpose

hydrogen is released from the generator in the air using special method.

Method involves that firstly fill the generator with CO2 which release the

hydrogen in the air and then in the end air is filled in the generator and

CO2 is released in the air. This method is adopted because if hydrogen is

released using air instead of CO2 then it can cause explosion due to oxygen

in the air which will meet hydrogen under pressure in the generator. After

maintenance hydrogen gas is refilled in the generator using the reverse

process as described above.

6.3.4 Water Parameters in Gas Cooler: Rated temperature of cold water at inlet 32°C
