1 Introduction

2 Project kick-off and Initial Survey

2.1 MOM on 23/10/2018

3 Pre-Audit data collection

3.1 list of data collected

3.2 failure data

4 Detailed Audit

4.1Basline data collection: Circuit tracing & P&I study

, Reading of O & M manuals, Gas Composition, and
Fuel consumption data received
4.1.1 During GED audit it was observed that heat
exchanger fan, oil pump and cooling water pump are
mechanically driven by engine (and not electric motor
driven), hence de-scoped from EMD audit.
4.2 Field trial Schedule

4.3 parameters to be measured

4.4 log Sheet sample any one (do not include old log
sheet)
4.5 field trial measurements (list of excel files)

5 Data analysis (limitations because of instrument

unavailability)
5.1 Compressor power calculation

5.2 capacity utilization

5.3 Exhaust gas flow calculation (mention approximate
calibration date for hot wire anemometer)
5.4variation of Specific heat capacity of coolant wrt
 temperature
5.5 Heat balance calculation

5.6 Emission Comparison with BS IV standards

9 Energy Audit recommendations

6.1 Heat recovery with hot water generator

6.2 Set of instrument for energy audit

6.3 fins Cleaning

6.4 Instrument calibration

6.5 Engine O & M processes from OEM manual

(Sample check list from UFC 3-540-07-2018
(5.2.3/4……)) note: Existing processes that are
followed
6.6 O & M staff of MNGL should undergo training on
energy audit
6.7 For maximum utilization of engine capacity, loading
control logic of cascade system should be checked
7 Cost- Benefit analysis

7.1 Heat recovery- pay back calculations

7.2 Compressor valve failures

7.3 Compressor efficiency improvements
