PLf = Plant load factor = No. of trippings / forced shutdown. Total start up time (From Boiler firing to full load.) Capability to sustain load jump and dump.
Turbine performance.
Evaluation of turbine Performance can be based on following aspects. Efficiency Conventionally expressed as heat rate = Turbine Heat rate Turbine Heat rate = Qs(Hs-hw) + Qrn(Hrn- Hcrn)/G
Where Qs = HP turbine flow, Hs = enthalpy at turbine inlet hw = Enthalpy of feed water after top heater Qrn = Reheater flow Hrn = enthalpy at IP inet Hcrn = Enthalpy of cold reheat steam G = No of unit generated in kwhr
Turbine performance.
Turbine availability (Rather Non-availability on account of turbine.) - No. of trippings on a/c of turbine. Start up time Time taken to reach 3000 rpm. & to reach full load. Valve wide open margin (VWO) margin (i.e.= Extra flow passing capability.) Operational ease - Level of eccentricity, vibration, thrust behavior, bearing Babbitt metal temp., differential expansion. Noise level. Heat loss - From surface area.
