2. Introduction
This document contains guidelines for plant startup and shutdown procedure for Song Hau 1 Thermal
Power Plant. Plant Start-up & Shutdown Sequence Diagram can also be referred, along with this
document, for graphical sequence of plant start-up programmed in DCS.
3. Scope
Scope of this document is to describe the start-up and shutdown procedure for the complete power
plant system. This document is subject to revision based on the further detailed engineering and
vendor/OEM information.
Note: The start-up mode will be decided by operator after checking condition of STG and BLR.
5. Plant Start up
5.1. Start-up Preparation
5.1.1. Start-up power availability
Auxiliary power required for plant start-up is taken from the grid. Unit auxiliary transformers are
charged from the grid power (500 kV). Unit switch gear bus-A & B (11 kV) are charged from UAT to
supply power to the various plant auxiliaries.
BOP system Since required electricity during start-up is supplied from external grid, operator must 3
obtain permission from EVN informing them of the time of start-up, synchronization, load-up to
scheduled load.

pumps will be started. The, circulating water supply to condenser will be established manually by
operator from DCS.
• ACW system
When circulating water system is started and water is available up to ACW pump (P1PCB09AP001,
P1PCB10AP001) suction, operator starts any one of 2 X 100% (1W+1SB) ACW pump 3
(P1PCB09AP001, P1PCB10AP001) from DCS to supply cooling water to the CCW heat exchanger
(P1PGB05AC001, P1PGB06AC001, P1PGB07AC001), vacuum pump seal water coolers
(P1PCB31AC001, P1PCB32AC001, P1PCB33AC001) and SDCC cooling system as per requirements.
• CCW system
CCW water system will be started manually by operator from DCS. 2х100% CCW pump
(P1PGB02AP001, P1PGB03AP001) along with three CCW heat exchangers (P1PGB05AC001,
P1PGB06AC001, P1PGB07AC001) will be kept in operation. Cooling water supply to for various
coolers will be charged filled manually by operator as per operational requirements. The level in the
overhead tank (P1PGB80BB001) will be maintained by tank inlet LV (P1GHC77AA081).
• Compressed Air system
As soon as cooling water for air compressor is available from CCW system, operator will give
compressed air system group start command from DCS. Start-up of Compressed Air system includes
start-up of 3 х 50 % air compressors (2W+1SB) (P0SCA01AN001, P0SCA02AN001,
P0SCA03AN001), 2 х 100 % air dryer plant (1W+1SB) (P0SCA30AT001, P0SCA30AT002), air
receivers and charging of instrument air and service air as per operational requirements.
• DM water system
DM water system will be group started manually by operator as group start sequence from DCS. DM
water storage tank will be filled by DM water supply pump. DM water storage tank level is
maintained by opening/closing MOV at tank inlet. 2х 100% (1W+1SB) (P0GHC11AA001,
P0GHC11AA002) DM water supply pump will be running operated to supply water for condensate
storage tank (P0GHC50BB001, P0GHC50BB002).
• Condensate Storage and Transfer System
Once DM water system is in operation, running, operator will initiate filling of condensate storage
tank. Operator will start one of 2 X 100% (1W+1SB) condensate transfer pump (P0GHC61AP001,
P0GHC62AP001) from DCS to fulfill initial fill up requirement of various systems as well as hotwell
make up water requirement. The various sytems which require initial filling are as below

SONG HAU 1 THERMAL POWER PLANT PROJECT
Until Deaerator level is decreased due to feedwater supply to boiler after firing, condensate is
recirculated via minimum recirculation line to condenser.
DA level will be controlled by controlling adjusting condensate flow from LP heater 4 to deaerator
(P1LAA10AC001) by modulating deaerator 30% start up LCV (P1LCA90AA081) based on with 3
single element level control based on DA level measured by triple redundant level transmitters
P1LAA10CL001/2/3.
When condensate system start-up is completed, operator will further proceed with start up of the high
pressure system start-up which contains start-up of including feedwater system.
During start-up, M-BFP (P1LAC10AP001) will be operated to fulfill the feedwater requirement of
boiler. Feed control valve (P1LAB60AA081) at economizer inlet will control the feedwater flow to
the economizer during start-up, up to 30% load.

During start-up except above case, the auxiliary steam will be initially provided from another
neibouring unit or Auxiliary Boiler at 15 bar(g) and 300°C. As the CRH steam pressure increases
beyond the requirement of unit auxiliary steam header pressure, Aux steam will be provided from
CRH by opening MOV (P1LBC32AA001).
Normally, as plant load increases, auxiliary steam consumption is reduced. And if auxiliary steam
consumption is less than 6 tons per hour, CRH Secondary PRDS will operate in place of CRH Primary
PRDS.
Auxiliary steam consumption during start-up includes the following consumers:
Feed water storage tank initial heating
Deaerator pegging
Steam coil air heater
Turbine pre-warming and gland sealing
BFP Turbines
FGD damper sealing
Soot blower for GAH
BFPT will be started by utilizing cold reheat steam. Quality of steam source is already secured
because generation of cold reheat steam means BFPT steam admission event is after steam admission
to main turbine. Then and at 25% load, steam source will be changed to IP turbine extraction steam.
generation of IP turbine extraction steam also means steam quality is secured. And main steam is used
for the steam source of BFPT for transient condition like load rejection, this codition also means
steam quality is secured because steam aleady had been admitted into turbine.

• Gas temperature at primary superheater inlet the nose top must not exceed 540 ºC(from
thermo probe) until an adequate flow of steam is established through the reheater.
• The steam pressure should be increased slowly during the initial start of a new steam
generator. This allows sufficient time for checking expansion movements and permits the
operators to become familiar with the characteristics of the steam generator and auxiliary
equipment.
• During start-up a minimum feedwater flow through the circuit is maintained by running
boiler recirculation pump (BRP (P1HAG31AP001)) to prevent water wall tube overheating.
7) As separator outlet pressure increases, progressively close the superheater steam line drains in

LP bypass valves(P1LBH31/41AA081) are provided for reheat steam pressure control. LP bypass
valves will be kept closed until the minimum reheat pressure is reached. Once reheat steam pressure
reaches to Pmin (18 barg), LP bypass valves controller will be changed to minimum pressure control
mode. LP bypass valve opening set points is set to Ymax (45%) depending up on the reheater flow.
Spray water for LP bypass valve desuperheater is supplied form the CEP (P1LCB21/22/23AP001)
discharge line. Once LP bypass PCV opens more than 2%, respective LP bypass valve TCV
(P1LCE41AA081/42AA081) operate in auto mode. Enthalpy based temperature control is realized for
LP bypass downstream temperature control.
Once LP bypass valve opens to Ymax (45%), respective LP bypass controller mode is changed to
pressure rise mode. During pressure rise mode set point for LP bypass controller is set to
synchronizing pressure Psync (14 barg). Reheat steam pressure increases towards synchronizing
pressure at a predefined gradient depending up on the cold, warm or hot mode of start-up.
As soon as synchronizing pressure is reached, LP bypass valve controller mode is changed to fixed
pressure control mode so as to maintain the constant reheat steam pressure.

5.3.5. Boiler Wet- Dry state changeover
As boiler steam production increases, the water level of the water separator decreases. At around 35%
TMCR load (about 210 MW), water separator level eventually disappears. boiler mode of operation
changes over from wet state to dry state. The boiler now operates in once through mode and boiler
recirculation pump (P1HAG31AP001) will shutdown at 40 TMCR load (5 percentage points above
Benson load).
Note) Benson load is 35% TMCR to ensure the furnace tubes are adequately cooled whilst operating
at start up and at loads up.

Turbine start-up is performed by automatic turbine start-up (ATS) sequence which is a part of turbine
control system.
The Automatic Turbine Start-up (ATS) function of the control system provides acceleration, load rates,
and hold times directly to the primary controls or guide messages for the operator.
The ATS function will furnish guidance messages to the operator in which set points should be
selected for proper operation. The operator will follow these guidelines in respect to pre-start
temperature and stress conditions, recommended acceleration rates and whether to implement speed
holds.
Normal starting and operation would be in control system’s under automatic mode of operation, 3
because it provides for the most time-efficient operation. The control system’s manual mode will be
used if the operator wants to have more influence over set point selection using guide messages on the
control system CRT.
Following turbine auxiliary systems need to be in operation before turbine startup:
• Turbine lube oil system
• Turning gear system (min. four hours before turbine rolling)
• Steam seal system
• Hydraulic fluid system
• Seal oil system
• Hydrogen gas system
All the turbine drain valves will be opened at the time of turbine start-up.

5.4.5. ST rolling
The turbine will be rolled by the ATS sequence at suitable speed and having acceleration rate based
on the thermal stress of HIP rotor. Generally, recommended turbine acceleration rate during various
modes of start-up is given in table below:
In automatic mode, turbine will be started in reverse flow mode. In reverse flow mode, speed/load
control is conducted with the intercept valves until transfering to forward flow at low loads. During
this phase, MCV will remain closed and steam to the turbine will flow only through the IP and LP
turbines. LP bypass valve starts closing as IV(P1MAB10/11AA053)s gradually open.
VV(P1MAB10AA504) will be opened at roll-off point and will keep the HP turbine at near vacuum
condtion during most of the acceleration period. When the speed reaches approximately 2200 RPM,
the RFV(P1LBC10AA081) will be opened in a programmed manner to provide suitable reverse flow
SH1-DHI-P0100-GE-M01-PRO-5304 20 of 38
SONG HAU 1 THERMAL POWER PLANT PROJECT
which is entering from this valve and venting through the VV(P1MAB10AA504) to prevent
overheating of the HP turbine.
Turbine is accelerated to high speed hold (2500 RPM). It is recommended that the holding period at
high speed to be maintained for heat soaking and lube oil heating. Holding period for various modes
of start-up is as given in the table below: 3
Once holding period is completed, turbine accelerates to full speed. Field excitation will be applied to
the generator excitation system when it is close to rated speed.
During acceleration speed holds will be implemented by the ATS, if:
1) Lookahead stresses are calculated to be greater than allowable limits.
(Lookahead stresses are stresses predicted for the next higher speed target considering current
and allowable stresses and current mismatch between steam and metal temperatures.)
2) At 2500 rpm, the rotor bores are found to be not heated sufficiently, the generator field is
prewarmed insufficiently, or the bearing oil cooler outlet temperature is less than 38° C.
3) A high vibration alarm is present.
4) A manual hold has been selected by the operator.
5) Oil trip test malfunction occurred before reaching rated speed.
Once turbine full speed is reached, the following checks will be performed by the turbine control
system:
1. Bearing Header Pressure –1.03 barg minimum
2. Operating Bearing Header Pressure – 1.72±0.20 barg
3. Inlet Lube Oil Temperature - 43–49° C
6) High speed heat soak
Cold Start Mode: High speed heat soaking during 20 min.
Warm/Hot Start Mode: High speed heat soaking during 10 min.
5.4.6. Synchronization
Generator synchronization will be done from turbine control system in automatic mode. Automatic
synchronizing consists of automatically speed matching, voltage matching, phase matching and
commanding the generator breaker to close within the predefined band of positive slips.
Since the facility of synchronization is provided for both Generator Circuit Breaker (GCB) and High
Voltage Circuit Breaker (HVCB), proper selection of the synchronizing breaker will be necessary
SH1-DHI-P0100-GE-M01-PRO-5304 21 of 38
SONG HAU 1 THERMAL POWER PLANT PROJECT
through selector switch external to turbine control system. However during normal hot, warm or cold
start-up condition always GCB will be closed for synchronization since HVCB is already in closed
condition. turbine control system will receive inputs and issue a synchronizing command to a
respective breaker as per the selection made externally at synchronizing panel. After synchronization,
block load (5%) will be obtained. Thereafter, operator shall select a target load and a loading rate limit.
Then loading will continue at a calculated loading rate which will be equal to or less than the selected
limit. A loading rate is calculated based on actual rotor stress and change of stress and steam 3
temperatures.
Synchronization Permissive Condition :
- Turbine Rated Speed
- Generator Voltage Established (over 0.95pu)
- ES for GCB Opened
- GCB not Fault
- GPR not operated
*block load: obtained power right after synchronization

for heater 8 is started. IP steam extraction for deaerator (P1LAA10AC001) at 30% load and for BFPT
is started at 30% load. The start-up vent MOV for each HP heater will be closed once respective
heater extraction starts and respective extraction NRV is opened for more than 10 sec. The HP heater
extraction steam group sequence is considered to be completed when deaerator pneumatically
actuated NRV and motor operated isolation valve is fully opened.
Beyond 40 % TMCR and up to 100 % TMCR load CC (Coordinate Control) mode is activated. Boiler
follow mode shall only be activated if the following permissives are fulfilled:
At least one mill master is released to auto
One CID fan is released to auto
One FD fan released to auto
During turbine follow mode, boiler fuel firing control remains under “pressure control”. Turbine
governor valve shall be increased gradually open with respective rate by increasing flow rate. The
governor valves shall remain in the same position (wide open) unless there is frequency correction is
required. From 40 % TMCR to 100 % TMCR load range the load demand will be given to both Boiler
fuel firing control loop as well turbine governor demand control loop.
Turbine governor demand from UMC will be under “load control” mode. The governor valve will be
modulated for any change in load.
Constant Pressure Mode will be operated from 0 % TMCR to 40 % TMCR load range and Sliding
Pressure Mode will be operated from 40 % TMCR to 100 % TMCR load.

At around 25% TMCR load load primary T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001) will be started in recirculation
mode.
As soon as following permissives are fulfilled, “Primary T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001) auto run-up
command” is issued from DCS:
Primary T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001) change over command issued
FW system in auto mode
Primary T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001) ready for auto run-up
Primary T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001) is kept in pressure sync mode first. Once primary T-BFP
(P1LAC20/30AP001) discharge pressure difference is within limit, T- BFP discharge MOV
(P1LAB22/23AA001) opens and then start-up M-BFP discharge MOV (P1LAB21AA001) close
command is issued. As soon as T-BFP discharge MOV (P1LAB22/23AA001) is opened and M-BFP
discharge MOV (P1LAB21AA001) is closed, economiser inlet MOV (P1LAB50AA006) open 3
command is issued. After MOV close for M-BFP, M-BFP will be stopped. With the close feedback of
eco inlet MOV (P1LAB21AA001), T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001) on speed control mode is enabled
and eco inlet FCV (P1LAB60AA081) is closed.
At 40% RO load, secondary T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001) will be started to meet the overall
feedwater requirement.
5.4.11. T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001) steam and Pegging steam changeover from CRH to IP extraction
As soon as turbine load reaches to 25%, isolation MOV (P1LBQ70AA001) and NRV
(P1LBQ50AA051) in the line from IP extraction to T-BFP open. Now steam to operate T-BFP will be
supplied from IP extraction.
Isolation MOV (P1LBQ60AA001) and NRV (P1LBQ60AA051) in the IP extraction line to deaerator
(P1LAA10AC001) open and pegging steam line MOV (P1LBC33AA001) from CRH to deaerator
(P1LAA10AC001) closes. Now pegging steam to deaerator (P1LAA10AC001) will be supplied from
IP extraction.

operation seal steam line control valve(P1LBC11AA081) will be kept in auto mode to maintain the
seal steam header pressure in case it reduces below the pre-set value.
6. Plant Shutdown
The normal plant shutdown is considered from the unit operating at full load. At this point plant is
operating at 100% TMCR condition. Four coal mills are in operation. Boiler feedwater requirement is
being fulfilled by two T-BFP (P1LAC20/30AP001). CEP (P1LCB21/22/23AP001) are in operation.
Both HP and LP bypass systems are available and valves are in closed condition.

2.2 PLANT DESIGN AND OPERATING DUTIES
The Facility shall be capable to operate on sliding pressure, typically, between 40% and 90% TMCR while the pressure will remain constant above 90% and
below 40% TMCR. The minimum stable load achievable without oil firing shall be 40% TMCR or below.
A minimum stable load defines that the load could be sustained with main fuel only without any
Definition of auxiliary fuel.
Minimum Stable This minimum stable load can be determined at steady condition, not transient conditions such as
Load boiler start-up or shut-down.
The combustion system is designed to satisfy the safe operation and the availability.
Basic Concept
Operating
In any case of lighting-off, the fuels must be in service of its igniters using auxiliary fuels for main fuel
Concept burning equipment so as to support the ignition energy.
It must be in service of oil burners as an igniters for lighting-off the main fuel in order to keep safe
and steady for furnace condition, when any pulverizer has to be shut-down or start-up during the
boiler load-down or load-up.
