Dear sir, Sub : IBPL Plant Heat rate reg

Date ; 07/04/13

With ref. to the above, We are showing that, the Plant heat rate is very high value in our Daily report around 3300 kcal/Kw . We are giving below details of analysis to improve the PHR.

Project: M/s IND BARATH

3 X 63 MW ,

Tuticorin

Present PHR : 3284 kcal/Kg ( at 56 MW with fuel GCV of 3950 kcal/Kg ( ARB ) and Turbine heat rate is 2621 Kcal/KWH and Boiler eff. 86% ) As per design PHR : 2492 Kcal/Kg ( at 63 MW with fuel GCV of 5022 Kcal/Kg ( ARB ) , THR as per HMBD is 2242.7 Kcal/KwH& Boiler efficiency 90%) The followings are the major part to increase the PHR . Calculation sheet attached for your kind ref.

1. 370 kcal/kw of PHR increased, due to eco inlet temperature lessthan the design. (Design economiser inlet feed water temp is 230 degc and Presently 170 deg c)- HPH 1 not in service. Spare reqd. 2. 215 kcal/kw of PHR increased, due to Coal flow is showing higher side in daily report to match the coal stock , not as per indirect efficiency mtd .(we are adjusting the coal flow with belt weigher reading and bunker level to match the coal stock, because of High Moisture( Surface moisture) coal receiving from Ship yard,to increase the weight . 3. 43.81 kcal/kw of PHR increased due to APH flue gas outlet temp is in higher side (Design gas outlet temp is 140 degc presently gas outlet temp is 175 deg c) Coal consumption increased and Gas flow also increased due to Low GCV coal. 4. 327.15 kcal/kw of PHR is increased, due to steam venting thro. Hogger ( compared with present PHR with indirect method of coal flow) to maintain the vacuum .we are using hogger in U 2&3 ,due to reqd. vacuum not getting from main ejector. 5. 279.21 kcal/kw PHR increased due to TG inlet flow increases, due to low Vacuum. (For 55 MW the TG I/L flow should be 207 TPH as per HMBD .But presently the TG I/L steam flow is showing 222 TPH .)

6. 62 Kcal/Kw PHR is increased due to Coal Moisture difference. because receiving coal moisture ( Tm ) is around 40 % and at that time of using the fuel , 4% of surface moisture is reducing by atmosphere condition and feed coal moisture at Bunker I/L is around 36% .So coal stock is reducing by weight . it may around 100 TPD / unit ( as per calculation). This is for your kind ref. and information. Regards,
