AREA TG Operating Instruction For REV 0.00

UNIT - 3/4/5/6 Management of Turbine Drains Date : 25/ 02/2009

A PURPOSE:-
This document is prepared to guide the operating personnel for managing the turbine side drains during a unit startup ,
shutdown & normal operating condition in stage- II of NTPC /TSTPS .

B SCOPE: :-
This shall be applicable to all the 4 units of stage - II , TSTPS ( 4 X 500 MW Units ) .

C INTRODUCTION : -
Drains play an important role in any system charged with steam . This is basically provided to drain out
the condensate before charging steam in a pipeline & subsequently allows sufficient flow in the line for initial warm
up . Also this allows to drain the condensate during cooling of any pipeline .Normally the big headers like MS
/CRH / HRH are provided with drain pots where the condensate is expected to collect & subsequently they are
drained by operation of these drain valves . To avoid human interventions some of the drains depending on their
location & importance severity they are interlocked with certain logics or instruments like level switches & so on .

If the condensate is not properly drained & steam is charged into a line , then it will lead to severe
hammering in the line causing major damages & sometime forced outage of the units due to failure of the
support system . Hence due care is to be taken while operating these drains .

Each Motor Operated drain is provided with a manual isolating valve for isolation of the drain valve
depending on requirement . But in case of MAW 11 drain valve no isolation valve is provided . However a bypass
line with 6-10 mm orifice is provided for continuous bleeding .Some systems are provided with orifice operated
continuous drains for continuous bleeding of steam /condensate .At some places drains are provided with steam drain
traps which should always be kept in service .
