INTRODUCTORY OVERVIEW
A station thermal power is a power plant in which the prime mover is steam driven. Water is
heated, turns into steam and spins a steam turbine which drives an electrical generator. After
it passes through the turbine, the steam is condensed in a condenser and recycled to where it
was heated; this is known as a Rankine cycle. The greatest variation in the design of thermal
power stations is due to the different fossil fuel resources generally used to heat the water.
Some prefer to use the term energy center because such facilities convert forms of heat
energy into electrical energy. Certain thermal power plants also are designed to produce heat
Almost all coal, nuclear, geothermal, solar thermal electric, and waste incineration plants, as
well as many natural gas power plants are thermal. Natural gas is frequently combusted in gas
turbines as well as boilers. The waste heat from a gas turbine can be used to raise steam, in a
combined cycle plant that improves overall efficiency. Power plants burning coal, fuel oil, or
natural gas are often called fossil-fuel power plants. Some biomass-fueled thermal power
plants have appeared also. Non-nuclear thermal power plants, particularly fossil-fueled
plants, which do not use co-generation are sometimes referred to as conventional power
plants.
Commercial electric utility power stations are usually constructed on a large scale and
designed for continuous operation. Electric power plants typically use three-phase electrical
generators to produce alternating current (AC) electric power at a frequency of 50 Hz or 60
Hz. Large companies or institutions may have their own power plants to supply heating or
electricity to their facilities, especially if steam is created anyway for other purposes. Steamdriven power plants have been used in various large ships, but are now usually used in large
naval ships. Shipboard power plants usually directly couple the turbine to the ship's
propellers through gearboxes. Power plants in such ships also provide steam to smaller
turbines driving electric generators to supply electricity. Shipboard steam power plants can be
either fossil fuel or nuclear. Nuclear marine propulsion is, with few exceptions, used only in
naval vessels. There have been perhaps about a dozen turbo-electric ships in which a steamdriven turbine drives an electric generator which powers an electric motor for propulsion.
Combined heat and power plants (CH&P plants), often called co-generation plants, produce
both electric power and heat for process heat or space heating. Steam and hot water lose
energy when piped over substantial distance, so carrying heat energy by steam or hot water is
often only worthwhile within a local area, such as a ship, industrial plant, or district heating
of nearby buildings.
EFFICIENCY
A Rankine cycle with a two-stage steam turbine and a single feed water heater.
The energy efficiency of a conventional thermal power station, considered salable energy
produced as a percent of the heating value of the fuel consumed, is typically 33% to 48% As
with all heat engines, their efficiency is limited, and governed by the laws of
thermodynamics. By comparison, most hydropower stations in the United States are about 90
percent efficient in converting the energy of falling water into electricity.
The energy of a thermal not utilized in power production must leave the plant in the form of
heat to the environment. This waste heat can go through a condenser and be disposed of with
cooling water or in cooling towers. If the waste heat is instead utilized for district heating, it
is called co-generation. An important class of thermal power station are associated with
desalination facilities; these are typically found in desert countries with large supplies of
natural gas and in these plants, freshwater production and electricity are equally important coproducts.
The Carnot efficiency dictates that higher efficiencies can be attained by increasing the
temperature of the steam. Sub-critical fossil fuel power plants can achieve 3640%
efficiency. Super critical designs have efficiencies in the low to mid 40% range, with new
"ultra critical" designs using pressures of 4400 psi (30.3 MPa) and multiple stage reheat
reaching about 48% efficiency. Above the critical point for water of 705 F (374 C) and
3212 psi (22.06 MPa), there is no phase transition from water to steam, but only a gradual
decrease in density.
Currently most of the nuclear power plants must operate below the temperatures and
pressures that coal-fired plants do, since the pressurized vessel is very large and contains the
entire bundle of nuclear fuel rods. The size of the reactor limits the pressure that can be
reached. This, in turn, limits their thermodynamic efficiency to 3032%. Some advanced
reactor designs being studied, such as the very high temperature reactor, advanced gas-cooled
reactor and supercritical water reactor, would operate at temperatures and pressures similar to
current coal plants, producing comparable thermodynamic efficiency.
ELECTRICITY COST
The direct cost of electric energy produced by a thermal power station is the result of cost of
fuel, capital cost for the plant, operator labour, maintenance, and such factors as ash handling
and disposal. Indirect, social or environmental costs such as the economic value of
environmental impacts, or environmental and health effects of the complete fuel cycle and
plant decommissioning, are not usually assigned to generation costs for thermal stations in
utility practice, but may form part of an environmental impact assessment.
23. Economiser
8. Surface condenser
For units over about 200 MW capacity, redundancy of key components is provided by
installing duplicates of the forced and induced draft fans, air preheaters, and fly ash
collectors. On some units of about 60 MW, two boilers per unit may instead be provided.
water is highly purified before use. A system of water softeners and ion exchange
demineralizers produces water so pure that it coincidentally becomes an electrical insulator,
with conductivity in the range of 0.31.0 microsiemens per centimeter. The makeup water in
a 500 MWe plant amounts to perhaps 120 US gallons per minute (7.6 L/s) to replace water
drawn off from the boiler drums for water purity management, and to also offset the small
losses from steam leaks in the system.
The feed water cycle begins with condensate water being pumped out of the condenser after
traveling through the steam turbines. The condensate flow rate at full load in a 500 MW plant
is about 6,000 US gallons per minute (400 L/s).

water storage section).
The water is pressurized in two stages, and flows through a series of six or seven intermediate
feed water heaters, heated up at each point with steam extracted from an appropriate duct on
the turbines and gaining temperature at each stage. Typically, in the middle of this series of
feedwater heaters, and before the second stage of pressurization, the condensate plus the
makeup water flows through a deaerator that removes dissolved air from the water, further
purifying and reducing its corrosiveness. The water may be dosed following this point with
hydrazine, a chemical that removes the remaining oxygen in the water to below 5 parts per
billion (ppb). It is also dosed with pH control agents such as ammonia or morpholine to keep
the residual acidity low and thus non-corrosive.
BOILER OPERATION
The boiler is a rectangular furnace about 50 feet (15 m) on a side and 130 feet (40 m) tall. Its
walls are made of a web of high pressure steel tubes about 2.3 inches (58 mm) in diameter.
Pulverized coal is air-blown into the furnace through burners located at the four corners, or
along one wall, or two opposite walls, and it is ignited to rapidly burn, forming a large
fireball at the center. The thermal radiation of the fireball heats the water that circulates
through the boiler tubes near the boiler perimeter. The water circulation rate in the boiler is
three to four times the throughput. As the water in the boiler circulates it absorbs heat and
changes into steam. It is separated from the water inside a drum at the top of the furnace. The
saturated steam is introduced into superheat pendant tubes that hang in the hottest part of the
combustion gases as they exit the furnace. Here the steam is superheated to 1,000 F (540 C)
to prepare it for the turbine.
Plants designed for lignite (brown coal) are increasingly used in locations as varied as
Germany, Victoria, Australia and North Dakota. Lignite is a much younger form of coal than
black coal. It has a lower energy density than black coal and requires a much larger furnace
for equivalent heat output. Such coals may contain up to 70% water and ash, yielding lower
furnace temperatures and requiring larger induced-draft fans. The firing systems also differ
from black coal and typically draw hot gas from the furnace-exit level and mix it with the
incoming coal in fan-type mills that inject the pulverized coal and hot gas mixture into the
boiler.
Plants that use gas turbines to heat the water for conversion into steam use boilers known as
heat recovery steam generators (HRSG). The exhaust heat from the gas turbines is used to
make superheated steam that is then used in a conventional water-steam generation cycle, as
described in gas turbine combined-cycle plants section below.
SUPERHEATER
Fossil fuel power plants often have a superheater section in the steam generating furnace. The
steam passes through drying equipment inside the steam drum on to the superheater, a set of
tubes in the furnace. Here the steam picks up more energy from hot flue gases outside the
tubing and its temperature is now superheated above the saturation temperature. The
superheated steam is then piped through the main steam lines to the valves before the high
pressure turbine.
Nuclear-powered steam plants do not have such sections but produce steam at essentially
saturated conditions. Experimental nuclear plants were equipped with fossil-fired super
heaters in an attempt to improve overall plant operating cost.
STEAM CONDENSING
The condenser condenses the steam from the exhaust of the turbine into liquid to allow it to
be pumped. If the condenser can be made cooler, the pressure of the exhaust steam is reduced
and efficiency of the cycle increases.
ejectors or rotary motor-driven exhausters for continuous removal of air and gases from the
steam side to maintain vacuum.
For best efficiency, the temperature in the condenser must be kept as low as practical in order
to achieve the lowest possible pressure in the condensing steam. Since the condenser
temperature can almost always be kept significantly below 100 C where the vapor pressure
of water is much less than atmospheric pressure, the condenser generally works under
vacuum. Thus leaks of non-condensible air into the closed loop must be prevented.
Typically the cooling water causes the steam to condense at a temperature of about 35 C
(95 F) and that creates an absolute pressure in the condenser of about 27 kPa (0.59
2.07 inHg), i.e. a vacuum of about 95 kPa (28 inHg) relative to atmospheric pressure. The
large decrease in volume that occurs when water vapor condenses to liquid creates the low
vacuum that helps pull steam through and increase the efficiency of the turbines.
The limiting factor is the temperature of the cooling water and that, in turn, is limited by the
prevailing average climatic conditions at the power plant's location (it may be possible to
lower the temperature beyond the turbine limits during winter, causing excessive
condensation in the turbine). Plants operating in hot climates may have to reduce output if
their source of condenser cooling water becomes warmer; unfortunately this usually
coincides with periods of high electrical demand for air conditioning.
The condenser generally uses either circulating cooling water from a cooling tower to reject
waste heat to the atmosphere, or once-through water from a river, lake or ocean.
REHEATER
Power plant furnaces may have a reheater section containing tubes heated by hot flue gases
outside the tubes. Exhaust steam from the high pressure turbine is passed through these
heated tubes to collect more energy before driving the intermediate and then low pressure
turbines.
AIR PATH
External fans are provided to give sufficient air for combustion. The Primary air 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
closing.
The turbine generator consists of a series of steam turbines interconnected to each other and a
generator on a common shaft. There is a high pressure turbine at one end, followed by an
intermediate pressure turbine, two low pressure turbines, and the generator. As steam moves
through the system and loses pressure and thermal energy it expands in volume, requiring
increasing diameter and longer blades at each succeeding stage to extract the remaining
energy. The entire rotating mass may be over 200 metric tons and 100 feet (30 m) long. It is
so heavy that it must be kept turning slowly even when shut down (at 3 rpm) so that the shaft
will not bow even slightly and become unbalanced. This is so important that it is one of only
five functions of blackout emergency power batteries on site. Other functions are emergency
lighting, communication, station alarms and turbogenerator lube oil.
Superheated steam from the boiler is delivered through 1416-inch (360410 mm) diameter
piping to the high pressure turbine where it falls in pressure to 600 psi (4.1 MPa) and to
600 F (320 C) in temperature through the stage. It exits via 2426-inch (610660 mm)
diameter cold reheat lines and passes back into the boiler where the steam is reheated in
special reheat pendant tubes back to 1,000 F (540 C). The hot reheat steam is conducted to
the intermediate pressure turbine where it falls in both temperature and pressure and exits
directly to the long-bladed low pressure turbines and finally exits to the condenser.
The generator, 30 feet (9 m) long and 12 feet (3.7 m) in diameter, contains a stationary stator
and a spinning rotor, each containing miles of heavy copper conductorno permanent
magnets here. In operation it generates up to 21,000 amperes at 24,000 volts AC (504 MWe)
as it spins at either 3,000 or 3,600 rpm, synchronized to the power grid. The rotor spins in a
sealed chamber cooled with hydrogen gas, selected because it has the highest known heat
transfer coefficient of any gas and for its low viscosity which reduces windage losses. This
system requires special handling during startup, with air in the chamber first displaced by
carbon dioxide before filling with hydrogen. This ensures that the highly explosive
hydrogenoxygen environment is not created.
The power grid frequency is 60 Hz across North America and 50 Hz in Europe, Oceania, Asia
(Korea and parts of Japan are notable exceptions) and parts of Africa. The desired frequency
affects the design of large turbines, since they are highly optimized for one particular speed.
The electricity flows to a distribution yard where transformers increase the voltage for
transmission to its destination.
The steam turbine-driven generators have auxiliary systems enabling them to work
satisfactorily and safely. The steam turbine generator being rotating equipment generally has
a heavy, large diameter shaft. The shaft therefore requires not only supports but also has to be
kept in position while running. To minimize the frictional resistance to the rotation, the shaft
has a number of bearings. The bearing shells, in which the shaft rotates, are lined with a low
friction material like Babbitt metal. Oil lubrication is provided to further reduce the friction
between shaft and bearing surface and to limit the heat generated.
pollutants from the exit stack gas. Other devices use catalysts to remove Nitrous Oxide
compounds from the flue gas stream. The gas travelling up the flue gas stack may by this
time have dropped to about 50 C (120 F). A typical flue gas stack may be 150180 metres
(490590 ft) tall to disperse the remaining flue gas components in the atmosphere. The tallest
flue gas stack in the world is 419.7 metres (1,377 ft) tall at the GRES-2 power plant in
Ekibastuz, Kazakhstan.
In the United States and a number of other countries, atmospheric dispersion modeling
studies are required to determine the flue gas stack height needed to comply with the local air
pollution regulations. The United States also requires the height of a flue gas stack to comply
with what is known as the "Good Engineering Practice (GEP)" stack height. In the case of
existing flue gas stacks that exceed the GEP stack height, any air pollution dispersion
modeling studies for such stacks must use the GEP stack height rather than the actual stack
height.
AUXILIARY SYSTEMS
BOILER MAKE-UP WATER TREATMENT PLANT AND
STORAGE
Since there is continuous withdrawal of steam and continuous return of condensate to the
boiler, losses due to blowdown and leakages have to be made up to maintain a desired water
level in the boiler steam drum. For this, continuous make-up water is added to the boiler
water system. Impurities in the raw water input to the plant generally consist of calcium and
magnesium salts which impart hardness to the water. Hardness in the make-up water to the
boiler will form deposits on the tube water surfaces which will lead to overheating and failure
of the tubes. Thus, the salts have to be removed from the water, and that is done by a water
demineralising treatment plant (DM). A DM plant generally consists of cation, anion, and
mixed bed exchangers. Any ions in the final water from this process consist essentially of
hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions, which recombine to form pure water. Very pure DM water
becomes highly corrosive once it absorbs oxygen from the atmosphere because of its very
high affinity for oxygen.
The capacity of the DM plant is dictated by the type and quantity of salts in the raw water
input. However, some storage is essential as the DM plant may be down for maintenance. For
this purpose, a storage tank is installed from which DM water is continuously withdrawn for
boiler make-up. The storage tank for DM water is made from materials not affected by
corrosive water, such as PVC. The piping and valves are generally of stainless steel.
Sometimes, a steam blanketing arrangement or stainless steel doughnut float is provided on
top of the water in the tank to avoid contact with air. DM water make-up is generally added at
the steam space of the surface condenser (i.e., the vacuum side). This arrangement not only
sprays the water but also DM water gets deaerated, with the dissolved gases being removed
by a de-aerator through an ejector attached to the condenser.
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 pulverizers may be ball mills, rotating drum grinders,
or other types of grinders.
Some power stations burn 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 100 C before being pumped through the
furnace fuel oil spray nozzles.
Boilers in some power stations use processed natural gas as their main fuel. Other power
stations may use processed natural gas as auxiliary fuel in the event that their main fuel
supply (coal or oil) is interrupted. In such cases, separate gas burners are provided on the
boiler furnaces.
BARRING GEAR
Barring gear (or "turning gear") is the mechanism provided to rotate the turbine generator
shaft at a very low speed after unit stoppages. Once the unit is "tripped" (i.e., the steam inlet
valve is closed), the turbine coasts down towards standstill. When it stops completely, there is
a tendency for the turbine shaft to deflect or bend if allowed to remain in one position too
long. This is because the heat inside the turbine casing tends to concentrate in the top half of
the casing, making the top half portion of the shaft hotter than the bottom half. The shaft
therefore could warp or bend by millionths of inches.
This small shaft deflection, only detectable by eccentricity meters, would be enough to cause
damaging vibrations to the entire steam turbine generator unit when it is restarted. The shaft
is therefore automatically turned at low speed (about one percent rated speed) by the barring
gear until it has cooled sufficiently to permit a complete stop.
OIL SYSTEM
An auxiliary oil system pump is used to supply oil at the start-up of the steam turbine
generator. It supplies the hydraulic oil system required for steam turbine's main inlet steam
stop valve, the governing control valves, the bearing and seal oil systems, the relevant
hydraulic relays and other mechanisms.
At a preset speed of the turbine during start-ups, a pump driven by the turbine main shaft
takes over the functions of the auxiliary system.
GENERATOR COOLING
While small generators may be cooled by air drawn through filters at the inlet, larger units
generally require special cooling arrangements. Hydrogen gas cooling, in an oil-sealed
casing, is used because it has the highest known heat transfer coefficient of any gas and for its
low viscosity which reduces windage losses. This system requires special handling during
start-up, with air in the generator enclosure first displaced by carbon dioxide before filling
with hydrogen. This ensures that the highly flammable hydrogen does not mix with oxygen in
the air.
The hydrogen pressure inside the casing is maintained slightly higher than atmospheric
pressure to avoid outside air ingress. The hydrogen must be sealed against outward leakage
where the shaft emerges from the casing. Seal oil is used to prevent the hydrogen gas leakage
to atmosphere.
The generator also uses water cooling. Since the generator coils are at a potential of about 22
kV, an insulating barrier such as Teflon is used to interconnect the water line and the
generator high-voltage windings. Demineralized water of low conductivity is used.
The necessary protection and metering devices are included for the high-voltage leads. Thus,
the steam turbine generator and the transformer form one unit. Smaller units may share a
common generator step-up transformer with individual circuit breakers to connect the
generators to a common bus.
BATTERY-SUPPLIED
COMMUNICATION
EMERGENCY
LIGHTING
AND
A central battery system consisting of lead acid cell units is provided to supply emergency
electric power, when needed, to essential items such as the power plant's control systems,
communication systems, turbine lube oil pumps, and emergency lighting. This is essential for
a safe, damage-free shutdown of the units in an emergency situation.
More than 51% of India's commercial energy demand is met through the country's vast coal
reserves. Public sector undertaking NTPC and several other state level power generating
companies are engaged in operating coal based Thermal Power Plants. Apart from NTPC and
other state level operators, some private companies are also operating the power plants. Here
is some list of currently operating coal based thermal power plants in India. As on July 31,
2010, and as per the Central Electricity Authority the total installed capacity of Coal or
Nuclear power is the fourth-largest source of electricity in India after thermal, hydro and
wind power. As of 2010, India had 19 nuclear power reactors in operation generating 4,560
MW while 4 other are under construction and are expected to generate an additional 2,720
MW.
Nineteen nuclear power reactors operated at six sites by the Nuclear Power Corporation of
India produce 4,560.00 MW, 2.9% of total installed base.

HIGHLIGHTS :-
The site selection committee of Central Electricity Authority has visited the
Nimoda and its adjoining villages of Jhalawar Distt. and site was found techno-economical
feasible for setting up of a Power Project. The Govt. of Raj. have included that project in 11
th five year plan. The estimated revised cost of the project is Rs.7723 Crores. M/s. TCE
Bangalore has been appointed as the technical consultant for the project. The state irrigation
department has alloted 1200 mcft water for the project from proposed Kalisindh dam. The
origin of the Kalisindh river is from northern slop of Vindya Mountains. The river enters
from MP to Rajasthan near village Binda. After flowing 145 km in Rajasthan, the Kalisindh
river merges in Chambal river near Nanera village of Distt.Kota. Its catchment area is about
7944 sq.km in Jhalawar & Kota Distt. The existing Dam is located at Bhawarasa village,
primarily for P.H.E.D. purpose is being uplifted for providing a storage of 1200mcft water for
this power project.
The GOR has allotted 842 bigha Government land and acquired 1388 bigha private khatedari
land for the thermal project .Phase-1 will be constructed on 1400 bigha land only..
EPC contract has been awarded to M/s. BGR Energy System Chennai on
dt.09.07.2008. Total project cost is Rs.7723Crores (Revised).
Ministry of Coal, Govt. of India has allotted Paras east and Kanta basin
coal blocks to RVUN in Chhatisgarh state. The RVUN has formed new company under
joined venture with M/s. Adani Enterprises for mining of coal blocks and new company
started the work. Annual coal requirement for the project is 56 Lacs TPA.
