Economizer
Flue gases coming
out of the boiler
carry lot of heat.
An economizer
extracts a part of
this heat from flue
gases and uses it
for heating feed
water. This use of
economizer
results in saving
coal consumption
and higher boiler
efficiency

Super heater and Reheaters

Super heater :

Super
heater
is
acomponent
of
a
steam-generating unit
in which steam, after it
has left the boiler
drum, is heated above
its
saturation
temperature

Reheater :Some of the

heat of superheated
steam is used to rotate
the turbine where it
loses some of its
energy

Air preheaters
After flue gases leave economizer, some further
heat can be extracted from them and used to
heat incoming heat. Cooling of flue gases by 20
degree centigrade increases the plant efficiency
by 1%.
Air preheaters may be of three types
Plate type
Tubular type
Regenerative type

TURBINE
In a Thermal Power Plant generally 3 turbines are used to increase
the efficiency.

.High Pressure Turbine(HPT): The superheated steam is directly

fed to this
turbine to rotate it.
Intermediate Pressure Turbine(IPT): The out put from the HPT is
reheated In a reheated(RH) and used to rotate IPT .
Low Pressure Turbine(LPT): The Exhausted steam from the IPT is
directly
fed to rotate the shaft of LPT.

High pressure turbine: The HP turbine consists of 25

reaction stages. The moving and stationary blades are
inserted into appropriately shapes into inner casing and the
shaft.
Intermediate pressure turbine: The steam from HP
turbine after reheating enters the inner casing from above
and below through two inlet nozzles.
The IP turbine consists of 20 reaction stages per flow. The
moving and stationary blades are inserted in appropriately
shaped grooves in shaft and inner casing.
Low pressure turbine: Steam admitted to LP turbine
from IP turbine flows into the inner casing from both sides
through steam inlet nozzles.

CONDENSER
The condenser does the job of condensing the steam exhausted from
turbine.

Steam after rotating

steam turbine comes
to condenser.
Condenser refers
here to the shell and
tube heat exchanger
(or surface
condenser) installed
at the outlet of every
steam turbine in
Thermal power
stations of utility
companies generally.

Condenser Used In S.S.T.P.S.

In S.S.T.P.S. surface condenser is used.
A surface
condenser consists of an airtight cylindrical shell having
a chamber at each end. Water tube extends between the
chambers. The shell is made of welded steel plate
construction and the tubes are made of copper zinc alloy.
Cooling water flow through the tubes. The steam is
admitted from the top and gets condensed due to contact
with the tube surface. The condensate leaves from the
bottom. For efficient operation, the temperature rise in the
cooling water passing through the condenser should be
around 10degree C.

COAL & ASH HANDLIG PLANT

1. COAL HANDLING PLANT (CHP)

The function of CHP is automatic feeding of coal

to the boiler furnace. The coal is transported to the
power station by rail. One rail (rack) consists of 58
or 59 boxes with 60 70 tones coal loaded in each
box. There are 6-7 racks of coal are used.About
18000 tonnes coal required per day for whole unit.

e main equipments of CHP are:

1. Wagon trippler: - A tripler is a equipment that is used for unloading the
coal from box by lifting and tilting the box.
2. Side arm charger: - It is used for pushing or carrying the loaded or empty
boxes.
3. Conveyors: - Different sized and diff. Capacity conveyors are installed for
feeding the coal from Tripler to bunkers.
4. Crusher: - Crushers are provided for crushing the coal in desired sizes.
5. Primary crusher

6. Secondary crusher
:

7. Stacker cum re-claimer :
2
8. Stacker/Reclaimer: - The stored coal is stacked or reclaimed by the
stacker/reclaimer.
9. Bunkers: - Crushed coal is led to the mills via canonical shaped bunkers.
10. Coal feeders: - Coal feeder delivers the coal from the bunkers to the mill.
11. Pulverization of coal:- Pulverizing mills In modern TPSs coal is
pulverized i.e. ground to dust likesize. Pulverization is a means of
exposing a large surface area to the action oxygen and consequently
helping the combustion. mill used for one unit in which one standby. Mill
is 4.7met in dia. &7.2 met in length.

2. ASH HANDLING PLANT (AHP)

Coal contains a considerable amount of ash. The
percentage of ash in the coal varies from about 5% in good
quality coals to about 40% in poor quality coals.
Generally poor quality coal is used in steam power plant,
so the plant produces hundred tones of ash daily.
For removal of ash from the boilers and its disposal to the
suitable site is quite difficult.
Ash handling comprises the following operation:
1. Removal of ash from the furnace ash hoppers.
2. Transfer of ash to a fill or storage
3. Disposal of stored ash.

In S.S.T.P.S. Hydraulic System Is Used

For Ash Handling.

Hydraulic system:
In this system stream of water carries
ash along with it in a Closed channel and disposes it of
to the proper site. This is the healthy clean dustless and
completely enclosed system.
In this system the hoppers below the
boilers are fitted with water nozzles both at the top and
on sides. The top nozzles quench the ash while the side
ones provides the driving force for the ash. The ash and
water then flow along a trough to a receiving hopper or
sump where the ash is separated from the water. The
water is used again while the ash is sent out through
the carriages.
