Introduction NTPC Ltd.

NTPC Limited is the largest power generating company of India. A public sector company, it was incorporated in the year 1975 to accelerate power development in the country as a wholly owned company of the Government of India. the installed capacity of NTPC is30,644 MW .

Introduction NTPC Ltd.

Through its 15 coal based (24,395 MW), 7 gas based (3,955 MW) 4 Joint Venture Projects (2,294 MW). NTPC's share on 31 Mar 2008 in the total installed capacity of the country was 19.1% and it contributed 28.50% of the total power generation of the country during 2008-09.

NTPC ANTA
Anta Gas Based Combined Cycle Power Project is not only the first Gas Power Plant of NTPC but is also the beginning of an era of state of art Combined Cycle Power Plants in the country.

Gas Turbine is a heat engine

The Process Includes

6 November 2012

Compression :
of working medium (air) taken from atmosphere in a compressor.

Combustion
Increase of working medium temperature by constant pressure ignition of fuel in combustion chamber.

Expansion
of the product of combustion in a turbine.

Start-up of the GT
Start-up of the GT is driven with the help of starting equipment which runs the generator as a motor with speed increasing from 0to 600rpm. At this speed a pilot flame is ignited in the combustion chamber, fuel (gas/naphtha) enters and combustion takes place.

The speed increases further both with the help of generator motoring and the combustion of fuel up to about 2000 rpm. At this speed starting equipment is switched off and only the generator is made ready for synchronization with the grid. After synchronizations, the turbine load increases up to base load with more and more fuel entering the combustion chamber.

Applications of Gas Turbine

6 November 2012

Conventional applications are

Simple cycle operation. Combined cycle operation.

Electric utility companies use gas turbine predominantly in simple cycle and combined cycle applications. Combined cycle operation is much efficient than open cycle operation.

Advantages of gas turbine w.r.t steam turbine are:

1. They can be started and loaded quickly. 2. Less maintenance and simple design. 3. They have lower installation cost. 4. GT plant involve less metal and material. 5. They dont require enormous water for cooling. 6. They are more compact.

Generator
Generator is three phases, two pole air cooled machine. The mechanical energy generated by turbine is converted to electrical energy by the generator and appear in the stator winding in the form of current and voltage. This balances the torque of the gas turbine. It lead the magnetic flux, and carries the field winding, the generator is self excited. The power required for the excitation is taken from the generator terminals and fed to the field winding through the excitation transformer and the thyristor- controlled rectifier units.

Waste Heat Recovery Boiler

Anta Combined cycle power plant also known as Waste Heat Recovery Boilers (WHRB) plant, which are of nonfired, dual pressure and forced circulation type. The boiler has two different water/steam cycle known as highpressure system and low-pressure system. Components of WHRB The main components of the WHRB can be divided into following categories: LP Economizer LP Drum & Evaporator LP Super-heater HP Economizer HP Drum & Evaporator

15

LP Economizer
In economizer the flue gas heats up the feed water. After the economizer the feed water enters the LP evaporator and then to LP drum boiler.

LP Super-Heater
The steam, leaving at the top of the LP-drum flows through the flue gas heated super heater, where it reaches the end temperature of about 212C.

17

HP BOILER PARTS
HP Economizer
The HP economizer coils are in two part one part is just below the LP economizer and other part is below LP super heater and both the coils are connected in series

HP Boiler Drum & Evaporator

The feed water in the HP-boiler drum is pumped through the evaporator by means of 2 x 100 % HP circulation pumps.

HP Super-Heater
The HP super heater consists of two parts with a spray attemperator between them. This configuration allows the temperature control of the super heated steam.
18

Condensate Pre-Heater
The main condensate is pumped by condensate extraction pumps (CEPs) to the feed water tank.
Before entering the feed water tank the condensate is passed through the condensate pre-heaters, which are situated at the tail end of the WHRBs and heated by the flue gas to achieve the highest cycle efficiency.
