Turbine Governing system



Key Points
Ø  Governing- Regulation of Turbine Speed under No Load and Varying Load
Ø  Others Works: CV Actuation/ Initial Run-up & Synchronization/ Load Variation to meet Grid Freq
Ø  500 MW KWU: Throttle Governed Machine
Ø  2 Governors , EHC and HG connected in Parallel: Only One at a time through Hyd Minimum slection
Ø  CVs Open according to Secondary oil Pressure
Ø  Between 100 MW  to 525 MW , Load variation done by HPCV throttling

Important Procedures



Vacuum Pulling : Procedure:
Ø  Close RH Vents, CRH, HRH UFT drains
Ø  Close Vacuum Breaker
Ø  Open 8.5 m steam Manual valve full Both (100%), Temp> 250 Deg ( Open
Ø  Start GSC Exhauster Fan
Ø  Start Both Vacuum pumps ( Casing Empty, Receiver tank Level adeq)
Ø  At -0.2 ksc charge steam gradually ( lower Controller from 50% à 0 %)
Ø  Build Vacuum upto -0.9 ksc

Hydrogen Purging



Ø  SLC AS SOP Off, SLC DC SOP Off, SLC H2 SOP Off
Ø  Suppy of DC SOP Off
Ø  Start one AC SOP ( DP=1.5 ksc)
Ø  Dew Point Air=<-10 Deg, clearance from Chemist
Ø  H2 (Isolated Position), CO2(Isolated Position), Air Inlet(Open), Casing vent ( Closed)
Ø  Fill and Pressurise upto 0.5 ksc

Cold start-up



Points to Remember
Ø  maximum of HP casing and HP shaft is less than 150°C(more than 5 days)
Ø  It requires soaking of Turbine at 360 rpm with steam(40ksc,360 Deg)
Ø  An upper limit of 200° C/hr. saturation temp gradients can be allowed, i.e. approximately the boiler pressure can be brought to 20 Kg/ Cm2 within an hour of cold start up
Ø  But actual temp gradient is limited by the thick walled Y piece provided in the main steam and HRH lines
Ø  maximum differential temp allowed between inner (98%) and mid wall temp (50%) is ±40°C
Ø  Start only two CC pumps in order to minimize flashing in down comers (and subsequent vibration) when the boiler water is in the range of 85° to 125° C

IBT Outage



Consequences on Stage-2 ( Station Transformer Tripped)
Ø  132 KV Switchyard dead results in tripping of -Station Transformers, Construction Transformer, Misc Transformer
Ø  All colony power( Lighting,Water supply) will get interrupted
Ø  Power Supply to DM Plant, HFO Pump house, PTCW Pump house, Offsite Board, ADPH,
Ø  Following Board will get dead:
§  OBA,OBB,OBC,OBD (11 KV station Board)
§  OCA,OCB (3.3 KV Station aux Board), ADPH MCC, CHP Transformers
§  DMPT, CWST, WTPT,BTST,ODA,ODB(Station Service), ODC(FW Pump House),ODD ( Offsite ): 3.3 KV
§  OQA,OQB(St. Serv),3SA,4SA(Air Washer MCC),3TA,4TA(Unit Ventilation MCC),OTA(HVAC ) : 415 V
§  OSA(SW MCC), OTB(Serv Bldg Ventilation MCC), FOPH : 415 V

Main Equipments Tripped


Instrument Air supply Failure



Reasons of  Failure:
Ø  Failure of control supply of  compressor
Ø  Loss of Cooling Water (SG ECW Pump Trip)
Ø  Massive leakage in  IA supply Header
Ø  One Unit Under Overhaul. Unit Aux Board/ Station Aux board  got Tripped of that Unit
Ø  Total Black Out of any stage

DG Load Trial and Regular checks



Requirements:
1
Inform & Ensure availability of TMD/EMD/C&I

2
SG/TG/BOP source-2 AC Power Supply Interruption. Inform C&I for Standby chargers

3
Ensure DG Set Tank Oil Level Adequate

4
Evacuate and Isolate Boiler Passenger, Service Building Lift and Isolate. Inform EMD(temporary supply )

5
Arrange 3 Walky Talky : 1-CR 2-DG board 3-DG Set room

6
Note Down Initial Parameters of DG Set

Furnace Air Tightness Test



Ø  Scope- Boiler Furnace, Air and FG Duct upto ID Fan Inlet
Ø  Why- To test Tightness of Furnace wrt Environment not for Strength
Ø  Ensure- All PTWs of BMD( PP, Rotary, Mills, Ash handling) cancelled and Clearance Available

Emergency Instructions:220 V DC Failure



220 V DC Failure
Unit condition
Ø  DCDB section-1 & 2 under voltage alarm in LVS-5
Ø  All HT/LT Breakers Indication Becomes Bad
Ø  Boiler will Trip on MFT ( after 2 Sec)
Ø  Turbine will Trip on MFT
Ø  Generator will not Trip as GCB Protection will not act
Ø  Generator will run as Synchronous Motor

Turbine and TDBFP Overspeed & Oil Injection Test Procedure


Oil Injection of Main Turbine:
  • Press Test Valve
  • Turn Test Hand-wheel Anticlockwise slowly ( to develop Test Oil)
  • Note Turbine Speed, Test Oil Pressure, Primary Oil Pressure when Bolts Operate(Aux Trip Oil becomes 0)
  • Turn Test Hand-wheel Clockwise slowly (Test Oil pressure becomes 0)
