6x135 MW CPP + 5x180 TPH Process Boiler Plant at

Angul, Orissa
LDO Unloading Pump sizing:
A) Capacity selection of LDO unloading Pump for 6x135 MW CPP:
We have considered that the required LDO will be brought to the CPP fuel oil unloading
area in road tankers. The unloading system will be designed to unload LDO from two (2)
nos. road tankers sequentially one after another.
The capacity for each tanker is considered

3
13 m

The effective unloading time for each tanker considered

20 minutes

Hence, required capacity of unloading pumps comes out to be =

(13 x 60)/20 m3/hr.

39 m3/hr.

Margin over required pump capacity considered

10%

So, design capacity of pumps (considering margin)

42.9 m3/hr.

Hence, selected LDO unloading pump capacity

45 m3/hr.

B) Capacity selection of LDO unloading Pumps for 5x180 TPH Process Boiler Plant:
We have considered that the required LDO will be brought to the fuel oil unloading
area dedicated for Process Boiler Plant in road tankers. The unloading system will be designed
to unload LDO from two (2) nos. road tankers sequentially one after another.
The capacity for each tanker is considered

3
13 m

The effective unloading time for each tanker considered

20 minutes

Hence, required capacity of unloading pumps comes out to be =

(13 x 60)/20 m3/hr.

39 m3/hr.

Margin over required pump capacity considered

10%

So, design capacity of pumps (considering margin)

42.9 m3/hr.

Hence, selected LDO unloading pump capacity

45 m3/hr.
