FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF BHEL

Working Capital Management

Working capital is the capital required for maintenance of day-to-day business
operations. The present day competitive market environment calls for an efficient
management of working capital.

WORKING CAPITAL = CURRENT ASSETS - CURRENT LIABILITIES

Current Assets:-

•Liquid Assets (cash and bank deposits)

•Inventory

•Debtors and Receivables.

Current Liabilities
•Bank Overdraft

•Creditors and Payables

•Other Short Term Liabilities

Two concepts of working capital

1. Gross working capital.

2. Net working capital.

18
Gross Working Capital: - It refers to the firm’s investment in current assets.

(Amount in Cr.)
Particular 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13
Gross working capital 36901.07 42934.81 51494.74 48714.94 50959.46

The GROSS WORKING CAPITAL determines the firm’s investment in current assets, here in
the graph, we can see that, there is an increasing trend in GWC, this is due to huge investments
in inventory, and they got huge orders year by year. Debtors also form a major reason for
investment in Current assets; the major customers to BHEL are government entity, so slow in
payments results in more investments in Gross Working Capital.

19
Net Working Capital: It refers to the excess of current assets over current assets over current
liabilities.

Net working capital= Current Assets- Current Liabilities

(Amount in
Cr.)

Particular 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13

Net working capital 8568.17 10493.09 12551.37 19992.01 23126.56

The Net Working Capital Determines the Firm’s ability to pay off its current obligations, the
year 2008-09 the company had Low Working Capital, and after that there is an increasing trend
in the NWC, in the year 2012-13 the Firm has highest Net Working Capital, this is because the
company had high profits and there liquidity position was high.

PART-II

Products of BHEL

1.Thermal power Plants- A thermal power station 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.[1] Certain thermal power plants also
are designed to produce heat energy for industrial purposes of district heating, or desalination of
water, in addition to generating electrical power. Globally, fossil fueled thermal power plants
produce a large part of man-made CO2 emissions to the atmosphere, and efforts to reduce these
are varied and widespread.

2.Nuclear power Plants- Nuclear power, or nuclear energy, is the use of exothermic nuclear
processes, to generate useful heat and electricity. The term includes nuclear fission, nuclear
decay and nuclear fusion. Presently the nuclear fission of elements in the actinide series of
the periodic table produce the vast majority of nuclear energy in the direct service of humankind,
with nuclear decay processes, primarily in the form of geothermal energy, and radioisotope
thermoelectric generators, in niche uses making up the rest. Nuclear (fission) power stations,
excluding the contribution from naval nuclear fission reactors, provided about 5.7% of the
world's energy and 13% of the world's electricity in 2012. In 2013, the IAEA report that there are
437 operational nuclear power reactors, in 31 countries, although not every reactor is producing
electricity. In addition, there are approximately 140 naval vessels using nuclear propulsion in
operation, powered by some 180 reactors. As of 2013, attaining a net energy gain from
sustained nuclear fusion reactions, excluding natural fusion power sources such as the Sun,
remains an ongoing area of international physics and engineering research. More than 60 years
after the first attempts, commercial fusion power production remains unlikely before 2050

3.Hydro power Plant- Hydro-power or water power is power derived from the energy of
falling water and running water, which may be harnessed for useful purposes. Since ancient
times, hydro-power has been used for irrigation and the operation of various mechanical devices,
such as watermills, sawmills, textile mills, dock cranes, domestic lifts, power houses
and paint making.

43
Since the early 20th century, the term has been used almost exclusively in conjunction with the
modern development of hydro-electric power, which allowed use of distant energy sources.
Another method used to transmit energy used a trompe, which produces compressed air from
falling water. Compressed air could then be piped to power other machinery at a distance from
the waterfall. Hydro power is a renewable energy source

4.Hydro generator- Hydroelectricity is the term referring to electricity generated

by hydropower; the production of electrical power through the use of the gravitational force of
falling or flowing water. It is the most widely used form ofrenewable energy, accounting for 16
percent of global electricity generation – 3,427 terawatt-hours of electricity production in
2010,[1] and is expected to increase about 3.1% each year for the next 25 years.

Hydropower is produced in 150 countries, with the Asia-Pacific region generating 32 percent of
global hydropower in 2010. China is the largest hydroelectricity producer, with 721 terawatt-
hours of production in 2010, representing around 17 percent of domestic electricity use. There
are now four hydroelectricity plants larger than 10 GW: the Three Gorges Dam and Xiluodu
Dam in China, Itaipu Dam across the Brazil/Paraguay border, and Guri Dam in Venezuela.

5.Steam turbine- A steam turbine is a device that extracts thermal energy from
pressurized steam and uses it to do mechanical work on a rotating output shaft. Its modern
manifestation was invented by Sir Charles Parsons in 1884.

Because the turbine generates rotary motion, it is particularly suited to be used to drive
an electrical generator – about 90% of all electricity generation in the United States (1996) is by
use of steam turbines. The steam turbine is a form of heat engine that derives much of its
improvement in thermodynamic efficiency from the use of multiple stages in the expansion of
the steam, which results in a closer approach to the ideal reversible expansion process.

6.Gas turbine- A gas turbine, also called a combustion turbine, is a type of internal
combustion engine. It has an upstream rotating compressor coupled to a downstream turbine, and
a combustion chamber in-between.

The basic operation of the gas turbine is similar to that of the steam power plant except that air is
used instead of water. Fresh atmospheric air flows through a compressor that brings it to higher
pressure. Energy is then added by spraying fuel into the air and igniting it so the combustion
generates a high-temperature flow. This high-temperature high-pressure gas enters a turbine,
where it expands down to the exhaust pressure, producing a shaft work output in the process.
The turbine shaft work is used to drive the compressor and other devices such as an electric

44
generator that may be coupled to the shaft. The energy that is not used for shaft work comes out
in the exhaust gases, so these have either a high temperature or a high velocity. The purpose of
the gas turbine determines the design so that the most desirable energy form is maximized. Gas
turbines are used to power aircraft, trains, ships, electrical generators, or even tanks.

7.Hydro turbine- A water turbine is a rotary engine that takes energy from moving water.

Water turbines were developed in the 19th century and were widely used for industrial power
prior to electrical grids. Now they are mostly used for electric power generation.
Water turbines are mostly found in Embankment dams to generate electric power from
water kinetic energy.

8.Transformer- A transformer is an electrical device that transfers energy between two or

more circuits through electromagnetic induction.

A varying current in the transformer's primary winding creates a varying magnetic flux in the
core and a varying magnetic field impinging on the secondary winding. This varying magnetic
field at the secondary induces a varying electromotive force (emf) or voltage in the secondary
winding. Making use of Faraday's Law in conjunction with high magnetic permeability core
properties, transformers can thus be designed to efficiently change AC voltages from one voltage
level to another within power networks.

Transformers range in size from RF transformers a small cm3 fraction in volume to units
interconnecting the power grid weighing hundreds of tons. A wide range of transformer designs
are used in electronic and electric power applications. Since the invention in 1885 of the first
constant potential transformer, transformers have become essential for the
AC transmission, distribution, and utilization of electrical energy

9.Switchgear- In an electric power system, switchgear is the combination of electrical

disconnect switches, fuses or circuit breakers used to control, protect and isolate electrical
equipment. Switchgear is used both to de-energize equipment to allow work to be done and to
clear faults downstream. This type of equipment is directly linked to the reliability of
the electricity supply

10.Oil field equipment (OFE)- An "oil field" or "oilfield" is a region with an abundance of oil
wells extracting petroleum (crude oil) from below ground. Because the oil reservoirs typically
extend over a large area, possibly several hundred kilo metres across, full exploitation entails
45
multiple wells scattered across the area. In addition, there may be exploratory wells probing the
edges, pipelines to transport the oil elsewhere, and support facilities.

11.Steam drum- It is a standard feature of a water-tube boiler. It is a reservoir of water/steam at

the top end of the water tubes. The drum stores the steam generated in the water tubes and acts as
a phase-separator for the steam/water mixture. The difference in densities between hot and cold
water helps in the accumulation of the "hotter"-water/and saturated-steam into the steam-drum.

12.Soot Blowers- A soot blower is a system for removing the soot that is deposited on the
furnace tubes of a boiler during combustion.

Types of soot blowers:

Wall Blower- Long Retractable Soot Blower (LRSB)

Air Heater Blower- Steam blowing medium:

Steam is normally used as a medium for blowing away the soot since capital cost of steam
pressure reducing equipment and drain is less than the cost of compressors, motors and control of
air systems.

13.Valves- A valve is a device that regulates, directs or controls the flow of a fluid (gases,
liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing various
passageways. Valves are technically valves fittings, but are usually discussed as a separate
category. In an open valve, fluid flows in a direction from higher pressure to lower pressure.

The simplest, and very ancient, valve is simply a freely hinged flap which drops to obstruct fluid
(gas or liquid) flow in one direction, but is pushed open by flow in the opposite direction. This is
called a check valve, as it prevents or "checks" the flow in one direction

14.Condenser- In systems involving heat transfer, a condenser is a device or unit used

to condense a substance from its gaseous to its liquid state, typically by cooling it. In so doing,
the latent heat is given up by the substance, and will transfer to the condenser coolant.
Condensers are typically heat exchangers which have various designs and come in many sizes
ranging from rather small (hand-held) to very large industrial-scale units used in plant processes.
For example, a refrigerator uses a condenser to get rid of heat extracted from the interior of the
unit to the outside air. Condensers are used in air conditioning, industrial chemical

46
processes such as distillation, steam power plants and other heat-exchange systems. Use of
cooling water or surrounding air as the coolant is common in many condensers.

15.Heat exchanger- A heat exchanger is a piece of equipment built for efficient heat
transfer from one medium to another. The media may be separated by a solid wall to prevent
mixing or they may be in direct contact. They are widely used in space heating, refrigeration, air
conditioning, power plants, chemical plants, petrochemical plants, petroleum refineries, natural
gas processing, and sewage treatment. The classic example of a heat exchanger is found in
an internal combustion engine in which a circulating fluid known as engine coolant flows
through radiator coils and air flows past the coils, which cools the coolant and heats the
incoming air.

16.Pumps- A pump is a device that moves fluids (liquids or gases), or sometimes slurries, by
mechanical action. Pumps can be classified into three major groups according to the method they
use to move the fluid: direct lift, displacement, and gravity pumps.

Pumps operate by some mechanism (typically reciprocating or rotary), and consume energy to
perform mechanical work by moving the fluid. Pumps operate via many energy sources,
including manual operation, electricity, engines, or wind power, come in many sizes, from
microscopic for use in medical applications to large industrial pumps.

17.Desalination- Desalination, refer to any of several processes that remove some amount off
salt and other minerals from saline water. More generally, desalination may also refer to the
removal of salts and minerals, as in soil desalination.

Salt water is desalinated to produce fresh water suitable for human consumption or irrigation.
One potential by product of desalination is salt. Desalination is used on many
seagoing ships and submarines. Most of the modern interest in desalination is focused on
developing cost-effective ways of providing fresh water for human use. Along with
recycled wastewater, this is one of the few rainfall-independent water sources

18.Water treatment plants- Water treatment is, collectively, the industrial-scale processes
that makes water more acceptable for an end-use, which may be drinking, industry, or medicine.
Water treatment is unlike small-scale water sterilization that campers and other people in
wilderness areas practice. Water treatment should remove existing water contaminants or so
reduce their concentration that their water becomes fit for its desired end-use, which may be
safely returning used water to the environment.

47
The processes involved in treating water for drinking purpose may be solids separation using
physical processes such as settling and filtration, and chemical processes such
as disinfection and coagulation.

19.Automation and Control Systems- Automation or automatic control, is the use of

various control systems for operating equipment such as machinery, processes in factories,
boilers and heat treating ovens, switching in telephone networks, steering and stabilization of
ships, aircraft and other applications with minimal or reduced human intervention. Some
processes have been completely automated.

The biggest benefit of automation is that it saves labor, however, it is also used to save energy
and materials and to improve quality, accuracy and precision.

20.Semiconductor Devices- A semiconductor is a material which has electrical

conductivity between that of a conductor such as copper and that of an insulator such as glass.
Semiconductors are the foundation of modern electronics, including transistors, solar cells, light-
emitting diodes (LEDs), quantum dots and digital and analog integrated circuits. The modern
understanding of the properties of a semiconductor relies on quantum physics to explain the
movement of electrons and holes inside a lattice. An increased knowledge of semiconductor
materials and fabrication processes has made possible continuing increases in the complexity and
speed of integrated semiconductor devices, an effect known as Moore's Law.

21.Solar Photo voltaic- A solar cell (also called a photovoltaic cell) is an electrical device that
converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the photo voltaic effect. It is a form
of photoelectric cell, defined as a device whose electrical characteristics—e.g. current, voltage,
or resistance—vary when exposed to light.

Cells can be described as photovoltaic even when the light source is not
necessarily sunlight (lamplight, artificial light, etc.) Photovoltaic cells are used as a photo
detector (for example infrared detectors), detecting light or other electromagnetic radiation near
the visible range, or measuring light intensity.

22.Bus ducts- n electrical power distribution, a bus bar (also spelled bus bar, or sometimes
as buss bar or buss bar, with the term bus being a contraction of the Latin omnibus -
meaning for all) is a strip or bar of copper, brass or aluminum that conducts electricity within a
switchboard, distribution board, substation, battery bank or other electrical apparatus. Its main
purpose is to conduct a substantial current of electricity, not to function as a structural member.

48
23.Insulators- An electrical insulator is a material whose internal electric charges do not flow
freely, and therefore make it very hard to conduct an electric current under the influence of
an electric field. A perfect insulator does not exist, but some materials such as glass, paper and
Teflon, which have high resistivity, are very good electrical insulators. A much larger class of
materials, even though they may have lower bulk resistivity, are still good enough to
insulate electrical wiring and cables. Examples include rubber-like polymers and most plastics.
Such materials can serve as practical and safe insulators for low to moderate voltages (hundreds,
or even thousands, of volts).

24.Control panel- A control panel is a flat, often vertical, area where control or monitoring
instruments are displayed. They are found in factories to monitor and control machines or
production lines and in places such as nuclear power plants, ships, aircraft and mainframe
computers. Older control panels are most often equipped with push buttons and analog
instruments, whereas today in many cases touch screens are used for monitoring and control
purposes.

25.Capacitors- A capacitor (originally known as a condenser) is a passive two-

terminal electrical component used to store energy electro statically in an electric field. The
forms of practical capacitors vary widely, but all contain at least two electrical
conductors (plates) separated by a dielectric (i.e., insulator). The conductors can be thin films of
metal, aluminum foil or disks, etc. The "non conducting" dielectric acts to increase the
capacitor's charge capacity. A dielectric can be glass, ceramic, plastic film, air, paper, mica, etc.
Capacitors are widely used as parts of electrical circuits in many common electrical devices.
Unlike a resistor, an ideal capacitor does not dissipate energy. Instead, a capacitor
stores energy in the form of an electrostatic field between its plates

26.Bushings- In electric power, a bushing is an insulated device that allows an electrical

conductor to pass safely through a (usually) earthed conducting barrier such as the wall of a
transformer or circuit breaker.

27.Electrical machines- Electric machines (i.e., electric motors) consume approximately 60% of
all electricity produced. Electric machines (i.e., electric generators) produce virtually all
electricity consumed. Electric machines have become so ubiquitous that they are virtually
overlooked as an integral component of the entire electricity infrastructure. Developing ever

49
more efficient electric machine technology and influencing their use are crucial to any global
conservation, green energy, or alternative energy strategy.

28.Compressors- Compressor may refer to:

Compressor (software), an application used with Final Cut Studio Gas compressor, a device that
pressurizes fluids generally Air compressor, a device specifically for compressing air to power
other tools

A device applying audio data compression to an audio signal dynamic range compression to an
audio signal video compression to a video signal.

29.Traction motors- Traction, or tractive force, is the force used to generate motion between a
body and a tangential surface, most generally through the use of dry friction, though the use of
off shore force of the surface is also commonly used

Traction can also refer to the maximum tractive force between a body and a surface, as limited by
available friction; when this is the case, traction is often expressed as the ratio of the maximum
tractive force to the normal force and is termed the coefficient of traction (similar to coefficient
of friction).

These are the products that are manufactured and developed at different units of BHEL.
