FUNCTIONING
2. Steam Turbine
3. Electric Generator
Boilers can be classified as water tube boiler and fire tube boiler.
In this boiler water flows inside the tubes and hot gases
flows outside the tubes are interconnected to common water
channels and to steam outlet. Water tube boilers are
classifieds as vertical full. The number of drum may be one
or more.
2) Lighter tube.
In coal-fired power stations, the raw feed coal from the coal
storage area is first crushed into small pieces and then
conveyed to the coal feed hoppers at the boilers. The coal is
next pulverized into a very fine powder. The pulverize may
be ball mills, rotating drum grinders, or other types of
grinders.
Some power stations burns fuel oil rather than coal. The
oil must kept warm (above its pour point) in the fuel oil
storage tanks to prevent the oil from congealing and
becoming unpumpable. The oil is usually heated to about
1000C before being pumped through the furnace fuel oil
spray nozzles.
25
From the pulverized coal bin, coal is blown by hot air through
the furnace coal burners at an angle which imparts a swirling
motion to the powdered coal to enhance mixing of the coal
powder with the incoming preheated combustion air and
thus to enhance the combustion.
26
Air Path
External fans are provided to give sufficient air for
combustion. The forced draft fan takes air from the
atmosphere and, first warming it in the air preheater for
better combustion, injects it via the air nozzles on the
furnace wall.
The induced draft fan assists the FD fan by drawing out
combustible gases from the furnace, maintaining a slightly
negative pressure in the furnace to avoid backfiring through
any opening. At the furnace outlet, and before the furnace
gases are handled by the ID fan, fine dust carried by the
outlet gases is removed to avoid atmospheric pollution. This
is an environmental limitation prescribed by law, and
additionally minimizes erosion of the ID fan.

Clarifloculator
To the chlorinator raw water chemicals are added in the form
of solutions and violent turbulence chemicals are adequately
mixed in a flush mix. The water is then led to central
chamber of Clarifloculator having rotary type of
arrangement. The water from outer than led into clear water
storage tank. The accumulated sedge at the bottom is then
pumped out in slurry form.
32
Demineralization
The filtered water as processed above is having by now only
dissolved salts as impurities in the form of ions. This water is
then pushed through a strongly acidic cation exchange
resins in hydrogen form. The resin is chemically similar to
plastic but is treated in such a way so as to confer ion
exchange properties. All cation periling in water are
exchanged for hydrogen ion only. The result is that the
neutral salts are connected to their corresponding acids.

resins.

Cooling towers
Cooling tower is important components of thermal power
station where a limited supply to make up water is available.
Cooling towers thus provide flexibility for selection of sites
for thermal power station even though capital investment
and running costs are generally on the high side.

Steam Turbine
Steam turbines are used in all of our major coal fired power
stations to drive the generators or alternators, which
produce electricity. The turbines themselves are driven by
steam generated in 'Boilers' or 'Steam Generators' as
38
Cogeneration Cycles
In cogeneration cycles, steam is typically generated at a
higher temperature and pressure than required for a
particular industrial process. The steam is expanded through
a turbine to produce electricity and the resulting extractions
at the discharge are at the temperature and pressure
required by the process.
Turbines can be condensing or non-condensing design
typically with large mass flows and comparably low output.
Traditionally, pressures were 6.21 MPa and below with

Coal Handling
Coal needs to be stored at various stages of the preparation
process, and conveyed around the CHP facilities. Coal
handling is part of the larger field of bulk material handling,
and is a complex and vital part of the CHP.
Stockpiles
Stockpiles provide surge capacity to various parts of the
CHP. ROM coal is delivered with large variations in
production rate of tones per hour (tph). A ROM stockpile is
used to allow the wash plant to be fed coal at lower,
constant rate.

Coal Sampling
Screening
Screens are used to group process particles into ranges by
size. These size ranges are also called grades. Dewatering
screens are used to remove water from the product. Screens
can be static, or mechanically vibrated. Screen decks can be
made from different materials such as high tensile steel,
stainless steel, or polyethylene.
Magnetic Separation
Magnetic separators shall be used in coal conveying systems
to separate tramp iron (including steel) from the coal.
Basically, two types are available. One type incorporates
permanent or electromagnets into the head pulley of a belt
conveyor. The tramp iron clings to the belt as it goes around
the pulley drum and falls off into a collection hopper or
trough after the point at which coal is charged from the belt.
The other type consists of permanent or electromagnets
incorporated into a belt conveyor that is suspended above a
belt conveyor carrying coal. The tramp iron is pulled from
the moving coal to the face of the separating conveyor,
which in turn holds and carries the tramp iron to a collection
hopper or trough. Magnetic separators shall be used just
ahead of the coal crusher, if any, and/or just prior to coal
discharge to the in-plant bunker or silo fill system.
Coal Crusher
Before the coal is sent to the plant it has to be ensured that
the coal is of uniform size, and so it is passed through coal
crushers. Also power plants using pulverized coal specify a
maximum coal size that can be fed into the pulverizer and so
the coal has to be crushed to the specified size using the
coal crusher. Rotary crushers are very commonly used for
this purpose as they can provide a continuous flow of coal to
the pulverizer.
55
Pulverizer
Most commonly used pulverizer is the Bowl Mill. The
arrangement consists of 2 stationary rollers and a power
driven baul in which pulverization takes place as the coal
passes through the sides of the rollers and the baul. A
primary air induced draught fan draws a stream of heated air
through the mill carrying the pulverized coal into a
stationary classifier at the top of the pulverizer. The classifier
separates the pulverized coal from the un pulverized coal.

Ash Handling
The ever increasing capacities of boiler units together with
their ability to use low grade high ash content coal have
been responsible for the development of modern day ash
handling systems. The widely used ash handling systems
are:-
2) Hydraulic System
3) Pneumatic System
The hydraulic system carried the ash with the flow of water
with high velocity through a channel and finally dumps into a
sump. The hydraulic system is divided into a low velocity and
high velocity system. In the low velocity system the ash from
the boilers falls into a stream of water flowing into the sump.
The ash is carried along with the water and they are
separated at the sump. In the high velocity system a jet of
water is sprayed to quench the hot ash. Two other jets force
the ash into a trough in which they are washed away by the
water into the sump, where they are separated. The molten
slag formed in the pulverized fuel system can also be
quenched and washed by using the high velocity system.
The advantages of this system are that its clean, large ash
handling capacity, considerable distance can be traversed,
absence of working parts in contact with ash.
