 ABOUT NTPC
• NTPC is the largest power generating company in india, was setup
in 1975 to accelerate power development in the country.

• NTPC has installed capacity of (43803 MW).

• NTPC has 16 coal based power stations (31182 MW).

• NTPC has 7 gas based power stations (4017 MW).

• NTPC has 7 power stations in joint ventures (8604MW).

• In 1997 , Government of india granted NTPC status of ‘Navratna’.

 ABOUT NTPC, TANDA

• Tanda Thermal Power Station is located in Ambedkar Nagar district in the

Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. The power plant is one of the coal based
power plants of NTPC.

• In the year 2000, Uttar Pradesh State Electricity Board (U.P.S.E.B.)

transferred Tanda Thermal Power Plant to NTPC Limited against
payment overdue.

• After that this plant, because of the better maintenance by NTPC Limited,
this power plant has crossed its Plant Load Factor (P.L.F) to more than
100%.

 OPERATION OF
THERMALPOWER PLANT
 MAIN DEPARTMENTS OF PLANT
•Coal handling plant
•Boiler
•Superheater
•Turbine
•Generator
•Condenser
•Cooling Tower
 COAL HANDLING PLANT

• The function of coal handling plant

is automatic feeding of coal to the
boiler furnace.
• A thermal power plant burns
enormous amounts of coal.
• A 200MW plant may require
around 2000 tons of coal daily
• following are the process of plant-:
1. Bunkering process
2. Unloading process
3. Feeding process
4. Screening process
5. Crushing process
 BOILER
•A boiler or steam generator is
a closed vessel to which water
under pressure, is converted
into steam.

•It is one of the major

components of a thermal power
plant.

•Always designed to absorb

maximum amount of heat
released in the process of
combustion.
 SUPER HEATER

•A device which moves last traces

of moisture.

•It helps in reduction in

requirement of steam quantity.

•Steam being dry reduces the

mechanical resistance of turbine.

•No corrosion at the Turbine

blades.
 TURBINE
•A steam turbine converts heat energy
of steam into mechanical energy and
drives the generator.
• It uses the principle that steam when
issuing from a small opening attains a
high velocity.

•This velocity attained during

expansion depends on the initial and
final heat content of the steam.

•This difference b/w initial and final

heat content represents the heat energy
converted into kinetic energy.

•These are of two types :-

1. Impulse turbine
2. Reaction turbine
 GENERATOR

•The Synchronus Generator is used to generate power by connecting the

shaft of the Turbine to the shaft of the generator which create the magnetic
flux producing Emf.

•The generated voltage will generally 33 KV to 1 1 KV max.

•the generated Voltage is stepped up by connecting Step up transformerand

is also used for auxilliary purpose.
 CONDENSER
• Which condenses the steam at
the exhaust of turbine.

• It creates a very low

pressure at the exhaust of
turbine, this helps in
converting heat energy of
steam into mechanical
energy in the prime mover.

• The condensed steam can

be used as feed water to the
boiler.
 COOLING TOWER
• Remove heat from the water
discharged from the condenser
so that the water can be
discharged to the river or re
circulated and reused.

• Air can be circulated in the

cooling towers through natural
draft and mechanical draft.
 UTILISATION OF SECONDARY RAW
MATERIAL (ASH)
• Construction of embankments and fills

• Construction of road in sub-base

• Manufacture of cement

• Manufacture of bricks/blocks

• Filling as flowable fill material

• Agriculture as soil amendment/source of essential plant

nutrients
 ADVANTAGES
•The fuel used is quite cheap.
•Less initial cost as compared to other generating plants.
•It can be installed at any place irrespective of the existence
of coal.
•The coal can be easily transported to the site
•It require less space as compared to Hydro power plants.
•Cost of generation is less than that of diesel power plants.
 DISADVANTAGES

•It pollutes the atmosphere due to production of large amount of

smoke and fumes.
•It is costlier in running cost as compared to Hydro electric
plants.
•Maintenance cost ismore.
