19/101

Superheated steam then flows through the

turbine. After doing work in the turbine the

pressure of steam is reduced. Steam leavingthe turbine passes through the condenser

which is maintained the low pressure of

steam at the exhaust of turbine.


20/101

Steam pressure in the condenser depends uponflow rate and temperature of cooling water andon effectiveness of air removal equipment.

Water circulating through the condenser may be

taken from the various sources such as river, lakeor sea. If sufficient quantity of water is notavailable the hot water coming out of thecondenser may be cooled in cooling towers andcirculated again through the condenser.

Bled steam taken from the turbine at suitableextraction points is sent to low pressure and highpressure water heaters.


21/101

Air taken from the atmosphere is firstpassed through the air pre-heater, where it is

heated by flue gases. The hot air then passesthrough the furnace.

The flue gases after passing over boiler andsuperheater tubes, flow through the dust

collector and then through economiser, airpre-heater and finally they are exhausted tothe atmosphere through the chimney.


22/101

Disadvantage of steam power plant

Maintenance and operating cost are high.

Long time required for erection and putting into

action . Large quantity of water is required.

Great difficulty experienced in coal handling .

Efficiency decreases rapidly below about 75percent load.

SUPER HEATER

24/101

SuperheaterThe superheater consists of a superheater

header and superheater elements. Steam from

the main steam pipe arrives at the saturated

steam chamber of the superheater header and is

fed into the superheater elements.

Superheated steam arrives back at the

superheated steam chamber of the superheaterheader and is fed into the steam pipe to the

cylinders. Superheated steam is more expansive.


25/101

Advantages of superheated steamCapacity to do work is increased without

increasing its pressure.

High temperature of super heated steamresults in an increase in thermal efficiency.

Heat losses due to condensation of stem on

cylinder walls are avoided to a great extent.

Does not produce corrosion effect on

turbine.


26/101

Superheater It is a heating device.

It is used to raise temp of steam at const

pressure.

It removes even last traces of moisture.


27/101

Classification of super heaterConvection.

Radiation.

Combination of convection and radiation.


28/101

ReheaterThe function of reheater is similar to the

superheater in that it serves to elevate the

steam temperature. Primary steam is suppliedto the high pressure turbine.

After passing through the high pressure

turbine, the steam is returned to the steam

generator for reheating (in a reheater) after

which it is sent to the low pressure turbine. A

second reheat cycle may also be provided.


29/101

Soot BlowersThe fuel used in thermal power plants causes

soot and this is deposited on the boiler tubes,

economizer tubes, air pre heaters, etc.

This drastically reduces the amount of heat

transfer of the heat exchangers. Soot blowers

control the formation of soot and reduce its

corrosive effects.

The types of soot blowers are fixed type, which

may be further classified into lane type and

mass type depending upon the type of spray and

nozzle used.


30/101

Condenser

The use of a condenser in a power plant is toimprove the efficiency of the power plant by

decreasing the exhaust pressure of the steam

below atmosphere.

Another advantage of the condenser is that the

steam condensed may be recovered to provide a

source of good pure feed water to the boiler and

reduce the water softening capacity to a

considerable extent. A condenser is one of the

essential components of a power plant.


31/101

Functions of Condensers

The main purposes of the condenser are to

condense the exhaust steam from the turbine

for reuse in the cycle and to maximize turbine

efficiency by maintaining proper vacuum. As the operating pressure of the condenser is

lowered (vacuum is increased), the enthalpy

drop of the expanding steam in the turbine willalso increase. This will increase the amount of

available work from the turbine (electrical

output).


32/101

Cooling TowerThe importance of the cooling tower is felt

when the cooling water from the condenser has

to be cooled.

The cooling water after condensing the steam

becomes hot and it has to be cooled as it

belongs to a closed system. The Cooling towersdo the job of decreasing the temperature of the

cooling water after condensing the steam in the

condenser.


33/101

Cooling Towers have one function :

Remove heat from the water discharged

from the condenser so that the water can bedischarged to the river or re-circulated and

reused.


34/101

A cooling tower extracts heat from water by

evaporation. In an evaporative cooling

tower, a small portion of the water beingcooled is allowed to evaporate into a moving

air stream to provide significant cooling to

the rest of that water stream.


35/101

Cooling Towers are commonly used to

provide lower than ambient watertemperatures and are more cost effective and

energy efficient than most other alternatives.

The smallest cooling towers are structured foronly a few litres of water per minute while the

largest cooling towers may handle upwards of

thousands of litres per minute. The pipes are

obviously much larger to accommodate this

much water in the larger towers and can

range up to 12 inches in diameter.


36/101

Advantages of regenerative cycle Improve overall plant efficiency.

Protect boiler corrosion.

Avoid the thermal stresses due to cold water

entering the boiler .

Increased the quantity of steam produced by

boiler.


37/101

Function of economizer To extract a part of heat from the fuel gas

coming out of the boiler.

To use heat for heating feed water to theboiler.

To increases the efficiency of boiler.


38/101

The economizer is a feed water heater,

deriving heat from the flue gases. The

justifiable cost of the economizer depends onthe total gain in efficiency. In turn this

depends on the flue gas temperature leaving

the boiler and the feed water inlettemperature.


39/101

Air Pre-heater

The flue gases coming out of the economizer

is used to preheat the air before supplying itto the combustion chamber. An increase in

air temperature of 20 degrees can be

achieved by this method. The pre heated airis used for combustion and also to dry the

crushed coal before pulverizing.


40/101

Advantages of mechanical handlingHigher reliability.

Less labour required.

Operation is easy and smooth.

Economical for large capacity plant.

Losses in transport are minimised.

Disadvantages of mechanical handlingNeed continuous maintenance and repair.

Capital cost of plant is increased.

The Simple Ideal Rankine Cycle

The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.,1998


47/101

How can We Increase the Efficiency of the

Rankine cycle?

Rankine cycle efficiency can be increased by

increasing average temperature at which

heat is transferred to the working fluid inthe boiler or decreasing the average

temperature at which heat is rejected from

the working fluid in the condenser. That is,

the average fluid temperature should be as

high as possible during heat addition and as

low as possible during heat rejection.


48/101

The three ways by which eff iciency of the

Rankine cycle can be increased are :

(a) Lowering the condenser pressure.

(b) Superheating the steam to high

temperatures.

(c) Increasing the boiler pressure.


49/101

The thermal efficiency of the Rankine cyclecan be increased by increasing the averagetemperature at which heat is added to the

working fluid and/or by decreasing theaverage temperature at which heat isrejected to the cooling medium. The averagetemperature during heat rejection can be

decreased by lowering the turbine exitpressure.


50/101

Consequently, the condenser pressure of most

vapor power plants is well below theatmospheric pressure. The average

temperature during heat addition can be

increased by raising the boiler pressure or bysuperheating the fluid to high temperatures.

There is a limit to the degree of superheating,

however, since the fluid temperature is notallowed to exceed a metallurgically safe value.


51/101

Superheating has the added advantage of

decreasing the moisture content of the steam at

the turbine exit. Lowering the exhaust pressure

or raising the boiler pressure, however, increases

the moisture content. To take advantage of the

improved efficiencies at higher boiler pressures

and lower condenser pressures, steam is usually

reheated after expanding partially in the high-

pressure turbine.


52/101

This is done by extracting the steam after

partial extraction in the high-pressure

turbine, sending it back to the boiler whereit is reheated at constant pressure, and

returning it to the low-pressure turbine for

complete expansion to the condenser

pressure.


53/101

The average temperature during the reheatprocess, and thus the thermal efficiency ofthe cycle, can be increased by increasing thenumber of expansion and reheat stages. As

the number of stages is increased, theexpansion and reheat processes approach anisothermal process at maximum

temperature. Reheating also decreases themoisture content at the turbine exit.


54/101

Another way of increasing the thermal

efficiency of the Rankine cycle is by

regeneration. During a regeneration process,

liquid water (feed water) leaving the pump

is heated by some steam bled off the turbine

at some intermediate pressure in devices

called feed water heaters.


55/101

The two streams are mixed in open feed

water heaters, and the mixture leaves

as a saturated liquid at the heaterpressure. In closed feed water heaters,

heat is transferred from the steam to

the feed water without mixing.


56/101

The production of more than one usefulform of energy (such as process heat and

electr ic power) f rom the same energy source

is cal led cogeneration. Cogeneration plantsproduce electric power while meeting the

process heat requirements of certain

industr ial processes.


57/101

This way, more of the energy

transferred to the fluid in the boiler

is utilized for a useful purpose. Thefaction of energy that is used for

either process heat or power

generation is called the utilization

factor of the cogeneration plant.


58/101

The overall thermal efficiency of a powerplant can be increased by using binary

cycles or combined cycles. A binary cycle

is composed of two separate cycles, one athigh temperatures (topping cycle) and the

other at relatively low temperatures.


59/101

The most common combined cycle is the gas-steam combined cycle where a gas-turbinecycle operates at the high-temperature rangeand a steam-turbine cycle at the low-temperature range. Steam is heated by thehigh-temperature exhaust gases leaving the

gas turbine. Combined cycles have a higherthermal efficiency than the steam- or gas-turbine cycles operating alone.


60/101

Selection of plant site

The selection of plant site for thermal power

plant compared with hydro-power plant is

more difficult as it involves number offactors to be considered for its economic

justification.

PROCESS OF Particle charging

Particle charging is the first and

foremost beginning in processes.

As the voltage applied on precipitator

reach threshold value, the space inside

divided into ionization region and driftregion.


69/101

The electric field magnitude around thenegative electrode is so strong that the

electrons escape from molecule.

Under the influence of electric field, the positive

ions move towards the corona, while the

negative ions and electrons towards thecollecting plates.


70/101

Particle transport

I n the moving way, under the inf luence ofelectr ic field, negative ions cohere and charge the

particles, make the particles be forced towards

collecting-plate.


71/101

Particle collectionAs soon as the particles reach the plate,

they will be neutralized and packed by

the succeeded ones subsequently. Thecontinuous process happens, as a result,

particles are collected on the collecting

plate.

Working of power plant

Pulverized coal is air-blown into thefurnace from fuel nozzles at the four

corners and it rapidly burns, forming a

large fireball at the center. The thermal

radiation of the fireball heats the waterthat circulates through the boiler tubes near

the boiler perimeter.

83/101

The water circulation rate in the boileris three to four times the throughput and

is typically driven by pumps. As the

water in the boilercirculates it absorbsheat and changes into steam at 700 F

(371 C) and 3,200 psi
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boilerhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler


84/101

The water enters the boiler through a

section in the convection pass called the

economizer. From the economizer it

passes to the steam drum. Once thewater enters the steam drum it goes down

to the lower inlet water wall headers.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economizerhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_drumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_drumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_drumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_drumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economizer


85/101

From the inlet headers the water rises

through the water walls and is eventuallyturned into steam due to the heat being

generated by the burners located on the

front and rear water walls (typically). As

the water is turned into steam/vapor in the

water walls, the steam/vapor once again

enters the steam drum.


86/101

The steam/vapor is passed through a series of

steam and water separators and then dryersinside the steam drum.

Thesteam separatorsand dryers remove

water droplets from the steam and the cyclethrough the water walls is repeated. This process

is known as natural circulation.

super heaterFossil fuel power plants can have a super

heaterand/or re-heater section in the steam

generating furnace. In a fossil fuel plant,after the steam is conditioned by the drying

equipment inside the steam drum, it is piped

from the upper drum area into tubes insidean area of the furnace known as the super

heater,

which has an elaborate set up of tubing where

the steam vapor picks up more energy from

hot flue gases outside the tubing and itstemperature is now superheated above the

saturation temperature. The superheated

steam is then piped through the main steam

lines to the valves before the high pressure

turbine.


89/101

Condenser

The condenser condenses the steam from the

exhaust of the turbine into liquid to allow it

to be pumped. If the condenser can be madecooler, the pressure of the exhaust steam is

reduced and efficiency of the cycleincreases.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rankine_cyclehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rankine_cycle


90/101

For best efficiency, the temperature in the

condenser must be kept as low as

practical in order to achieve the lowest

possible pressure in the condensing

steam.


91/101

Since the condenser temperature can almost

always be kept significantly below 100 C

where the vapor pressureof water is muchless than atmospheric pressure, the condenser

generally works under vacuum. Thus leaksof non-condensible air into the closed loop

must be prevented.

92/101

The condenser generally uses either

circulating cooling water from a cooling

tower to reject waste heat to theatmosphere, or once-through water from a

river, lake or ocean.

93/101

The condenser tubes are made of brass

or stainless steel to resist corrosionfrom either side. Nevertheless they may

become internally fouled during operation

by bacteria or algae in the cooling water or

by mineral scaling, all of which inhibit heat

transfer and reduce thermodynamicefficiency.

94/101

Many plants include an automatic

cleaning system that circulates sponge

rubber balls through the tubes to scrub

them clean without the need to take the

system off-line.


95/101

Re heaterPower plant furnaces may have a re heater

section containing tubes heated by hot flue

gases outside the tubes. Exhaust steam fromthe high pressure turbine is rerouted to go

inside the re heater tubes to pickup more

energy to go drive intermediate or lower

pressure turbines.
