INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview

For the power generation with 2x600 MW of R.G.T.P.P authorities are required to be operative
to active full operation. The auxiliaries are basically operation either on L.T. System i.e. 415 V 3
Ø power supply is made available to the system after providing the station transformer of 3x50
MVA capacity with voltage 220 KV/ 7.2/7.2 KV &different service transformers of capacity 1.0
MVA, 1.5 MVA, 2.0 MVA, which are located near the load centre as the transformer having the
voltage of 6.6 KV /415 V. The 6.6 KV power is distributed through 6.6 KV interconnected Bus
System for all the five units with a control through DC of 220 V.

The 415 V power supply is done through a L.T. SWGR (Switchgear) which are located nearby
the distribution transformer as well as the load centers. The all in-comers, which are breaker
controlled, are having the control the L.T. SWGR are having the control system on 110/ 220 V
AC. The 6.6 KV power supplies which are either MOCB (Minimum Oil Circuit Breaker) of
JYOTI MAKE or Air Circuit Breakers.

The 6.6 KV power supply to various draining g equipment s i.e. more is made through breakers
which are either MOCB of Jyoti make air circuit breaker which are either of voltage makers as
well as SF 6 of NGEF make. The LT supply is also controlled through air break circuit breaker,
which are either L&T make or English Electric Company of India. The various H.T. motors are
switched on / started through on direct ON line (DOL) in order to inverse the availability of
equipment at full efficiency without time gap.

Further the 6.6 KV system which is normally in delta configuration and terms as an unearthed
system so also to keep the running motor complete in operating condition in case of any one
.phase of motor winding is earthed due to any one reason. Earthling is detected by an protection
system with alarm facility to take remedial measures immediately and at the same time to
maintain the generation level in the same condition, prior to occurring the earth fault the single
phase earth fault is detected in due course till the motor is not earthed to other or another phase.

is available through in area of each unit which helps in fast

communication for prompt remedial measure.

Soot Blowers are there in the boiler area on the furnace side or Zone which helps in

Blowing the soot / ash deposition regularly of the furnace wall / economizer tubes to keep heat
transfer at the required parameter.

STAGE II - 2X600MW

1.3 SITE SELECTION CRITERIA

1.3.1 LOCATION:-

The Rajiv Gandhi Thermal Power Station is ideally situated in khedar village Hisar (Haryana)
which about 25 km from Hisar on the NH-65.There is a tributary flow which create a large
expanse of water reached by the barrage provides an efficient direct circulation of cooling system
for the power station.

1.3.2 LAND:-

Land measuring approx. 250 hectares was required for the project in 2007,

For disposal of ash tank very near to power station is acquired which the ash in slurry form is
disposed off through ash and slurry disposal plants.
1.3.3 COAL:-

Coal India limited owns and operates all the major coal fields in India through its coal producing
subsidiary companies viz. Northern Coal Fields Limited, South Eastern Coal Fields Limited,
Coal India limited is supply coal from its coal mines of coal producing subsidiaries SECL &
NCL to Rajiv Thermal Power Station through railway wagons. The average distances of SECL,
NCL are 900, 850 Kms. respectively.

1.3.4 WATER:-

The source of water for power station is reservoir formed by the river basin system. In case of
large capacity plants huge quantities of coal and water is required. The cost of transporting coal
and water is particularly high. Therefore, as far as possible, the plant must be located near the pit
rather than at load centre for load above 200 MW and 375 MW. The transportation of electrical
energy is more economical as compared to the transportation of coal.

THERMAL POWER PLANT

2.1INTRODUCTION:

A thermal power station consists of all the equipments and a subsystem required to produce
electricity by using a steam generating boiler fired with fossil fuels or befouls to drive an electric
generator. Some prefer to use the term ENERGY CENTER because such facilities convert form
of energy like nuclear energy, gravitational potential energy or heat energy (derived from the
combustion of fuel) into electrical energy. Typical diagram of a coal power thermal power station

The description of some of the components above is as follows:

1 . C o o l i n g T o w e r s - Cooling towers are eveporative coolers used for cooling water.

Cooling tower use evaporation of water to reject heat from processes such as cooling the
circulating water used in oil refineries, chemical plants, power plants, etc. The tower vary in size
from small roof top units to very large hyperboloid structures that can be up to 200 meters tall
and100 meters in diameter, or rectangular structure that can be over 40 meters tall and 80 meters
long. Smaller towers are normally factory built while larger ones are constructed on site. The
primary use of large, industrial cooling tower system is to remove the heat absorbedin the
circulating water system used in power plants, petroleum refineries, petrochemical and
chemical
plants, natural gas processing plants and other industrial facilities. The absorbed heat is rejected
to the atmosphere by the evaporation of some of the cooling water in mechanical forced draft
or induced draft towers or in natural draft hyperbolic shaped cooling towers as seen at most
nuclear power plants.

2. Three phase transmission line - Three phase electric power is a common method of
electric power transmission. It is a type of poly phase system mainly used for power motors and
many other devices. In a three phase system, three circuit search their instantaneous peak values
at
different times. Taking one conductor as reference, the other two conductors are delayed in time by
one-third and two-third of cycle of the electrical current. This delay between phases has the
effect of giving constant power over each cycle of the current and also makes it impossible to
produce a rotating magnetic field in an electric motor. At the power station, an electric generator
converts mechanical power into a set of electric currents one from each electromagnetic coil or
winding of the generator. The currents are sinusoidal functions of time, all at the same frequency
but offset in time to give different phases. In a three phase system, thephases are spaced equally
giving a phase separation of one-third of one cycle. Generators output at a voltage that ranges
from hundreds of volts to 30,000 volts. At the power station. Transformers step-up this voltage for suitable
transmission. After numerous further conversions in the transmission and distribution network,
the power is finally transformed to standard mains voltage i.e. the household voltage. The power
may already have been split into single phase at this point or it may be still three phase. Where
the step-down is three phase. The output of the transformer is usually star connected with the
standardmains voltage being the phase neutral voltage.
3 . E l e c t r i c a l g e n e r a t o r -An electrical generator is a device that coverts mechanical
energy to electrical energy, using electromagnetic induction whereas electricalenergy is
converted to mechanical energy with the help of electric motor. The source of mechanical energy may
be a reciprocating turbine steam engine. Turbines are made in variety of sizes ranging from small1 hp(0.75 kW)
used as mechanical drives for pumps, compressors and other shaft driven equipment to 2,000,000
hp(1,500,000 kW) turbines used to generate electricity.

4 . B o i l e r F e e d Pu m p - A Boiler Feed Pump is a specific type of pump used to pump water

into steam boiler. The water may be freshly supplied or retuning condensation of steam
produced by the boiler. These pumps are normally high pressure units that use suction from a
condensate return system and can be of centrifugal pump type or positive displacement type.
Construction and Operation feed water pumps range in size upto many horsepower and the
electric motor is usually separated from the pump body by some form of mechanical coupling.
Large industrial condensate pumps may also serve as the feed water pump. In either case, to
force water into the boiler, the pump must generate sufficient pressure to overcome the steam pressure
developed by the boiler. This is usually accomplished through the use of centrifugal pump. Feed
water pumps usually run intermittently and are controlled by a float switch or other similar level-
sensing device energizing the pump when it detect a lowered liquid level in the boiler
substantially increased. Some pumps contain a two stage switch. As liquid lowers to the trigger
point of the first stage, the pump is activated. If the liquid continues to drop (perhaps because
the
pump has failed, its supply has been cut-off or exhausted, or its discharge is blocked),the second
stage will be triggered. This stage may switch off the boiler equipment (preventing the boiler
from running dry and overheating), trigger an alarm or both.

Fig :2 Arrangement of Boilers:

The source of heat for a boiler is combustion of any of several fuels, such as wood, coal, oil, or
natural gas. Electric steam boilers use resistance- or immersion-type heating elements. Nuclear
fission is also used as a heat source for generating steam, either directly (BWR) or, in most cases,
in specialized heat exchangers called "steam generators" (PWR). Heat recovery steam generators
(HRSGs) use the heat rejected from other processes such as gas turbines.
 Fig:3 Arrangement of Boilers Auxilaries

5 . C o n t r o l v a l v e s - Control Valves are the valves used within industrial plants and
elsewhere to control operating conditions such as temperature, pressure, flow and liquid levelby
fully or partially opening or closing in response to signals received from controllers that
monitor
changes in such conditions. The opening or closing of controlvalves is done by means of
electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic systems.
6 . Deaerator - A Deaerator is a device for air removal and used to remove dissolved gases
from boiler feed water to make it non-corrosive. A deaerator typically includes a vertical
domed deaeration section as the deaeration feed water tank. A steam generating boiler
requires that the circulating steam, condensate and feed water should be devoid of dissolved
gases, particularly corrosive ones and dissolved or suspended solids. The gases will give
rise to corrosion of the metal. The solids will deposit on heating surfaces giving rise to
localized heating and tube ruptures due to overheating. Deaerator level and pressure must be
controlled by adjusting control valves-the level by regulating condensate flow and pressure by
regulating steam flow.

Most deaerators guarantee that if operated properly, oxygen indeaerated water will not exceed
7ppb by weight
7 . F e e d W a t e r H e a t e r - A feed water heater is a power plant component used to pre heat
water delivered to a steam generating boiler. Feed water heater improves the efficiency of the system. This
reduces plant operating costs and also helps to avoid thermal shock to boiler metal when the feed
water is introduced back into the steam cycle. Feed water heater sallow the feed water to be
brought up to the saturation temperature very gradually. This minimizes the inevitable
irreversibility
associated with heat transfer to the working fluid(water). A belt conveyer consists of two pulleys,
with a continuous loop of material- the conveyer belt that rotates around them. The pulleys are
powered, moving the belt and the material on the belt forward. Conveyer belts are extensively
used to transport industrial and agricultural material, such as grain, coal, ores, etc.
8 . P u l v e r i z e r - A pulverizer is a device for grinding coal for combustion in a furnace ina
fossil fuel power plant.9 . B o i l e r S t e a m D r u m - Steam Drums are a regular feature of
water tube boilers. It is reservoir of water/steam at the top end of the water tubes in the water-
tube boiler. They store the steam generated in the water tubes and act as a phase separator for
the steam/water mixture. The difference in densities between hot and cold water helps in the
-water/and saturated steam into steam drum. Made from high-grade
steel (probably stainless) and its working involves
(2.4MPa). The separated steam is drawn out from the top section of the drum. Saturated steam is
drawn off the top of the drum. The steam will re-enter the furnace in through a super heater,
while the saturated water at the bottom of steam drum flows down to the mud-drum /feed water
drum by down comer tubes accessories include a safety valve, water level indicator and fuse
plug. A steam drum is used in the company of a mud-drum/feed water drum which is located at a
lower level. So that it acts as a sump for the sludge or sediments which have a tendency to the
bottom.

10. Super Heater- A Super heater is a device in a steam engine that heats the steam generated by
the boiler again increasing its thermal energy and decreasing the likelihood that it will condense
inside the engine. Super heaters increase the efficiency of the steam engine, and were widely
adopted. Steam which has been superheated is logically known as superheated steam; non-
superheated steam is called saturated steamer wet steam; Super heaters were applied to steam
locomotives in quantity from the early 20th century, to most steam vehicles, and sostationary
steam engines including power stations

11.Economizers-Economizer, or in the UK economizer, are mechanical devices intended to

reduce energy consumption, or to perform another useful function like preheating a fluid. The
term economizer is used for other purposes as well. Boiler, power plant, and heating, ventilating
and air conditioning. In boilers, economizer are heat exchange devices that heat fluids , usually
water, up to but not normally beyond the boiling point of the fluid. Economizers are so named
because they can make dvice fitted to a
boiler which saves energy by using the exhaust gases from the boiler to preheat the cold water
used the fill it (the feed water). Modern day boilers, such as those in cold fired power stations are
turbines before it is pumped to the boilers. A common application of economizer is steam power
plants is to capture the waste hit from boiler stack gases (flue gas) and transfer thus it to the
boiler feed water thus lowering the needed energy input ,in turn reducing the firing rates to
accomplish the rated boiler output .Economizer lower stack temperatures which may cause
condensation of acidic combustion gases and serious equipment corrosion damage if care is not
taken in their design and material selection.

12. Air Pre heater- Air pre heater is a general term to describe any device designed to heat air
before another process (for example, combustion in a boiler). The purpose of the air pre heater is
to recover the heat from the boiler flue gas which increases the thermal efficiency of the boiler
by reducing the useful heat lost in the fuel gas. As a consequence, the flue gases are also sent to
the flue gas stack (or chimney) at a lower temperature allowing simplified design of the ducting
and the flue gas stack. It also allows control over the temperature of gases leaving the stack.

13. Precipitator- An Electrostatic precipitator (ESP) or electrostatic air cleaner is a particulate

device that removes particles from a flowing gas (such As air) using the force of an induced
electrostatic charge. Electrostatic precipitators are highly efficient filtration devices, and can
easily remove fine particulate matter such as dust and smoke from the air
to be excellent devices for control of many industrial particulate emissions, including smoke
from electricity-generating utilities (coal and oil fired), salt cake collection from black liquor
boilers in pump mills, and catalyst collection from fluidized bed catalytic crackers from several
hundred thousand ACFM in the largest coal-fired boiler application. The original parallel plate-
Weighted wire design (described above) has evolved as more efficient ( and robust)discharge
electrode designs were developed, today focusing on rigid discharge electrodes to which many
sharpened spikes are attached ,maximizing corona production. Transformer rectifier systems apply
voltages of 50-100 Kilovolts at relatively high current densities. Modern controls
minimizesparking and prevent arcing, avoiding damage to the components. Automatic
rapping systems and hopper evacuation systems remove the collected particulate matter while
on line allowing ESP’s to stay in operation for years at a time generating utilities (coal and oil
fired), salt cake collection from black liquor boilers in pump mills, and catalyst collection from
fluidized bed catalytic crackers from several hundred thousand ACFM in the largest coal-fired
boiler application. The original parallel plate-Weighted wire design (described above) has

controls minimize sparking and prevent arcing, avoiding damage to the components. Automatic
rapping systems and hopper evacuation systems remove the collected particulate matter while on
line allowing ESP’s to stay in operation for years at a time

14. Fuel gas stack- A Fuel gas stack is a type of chimney, a vertical pipe, channel or similar
structure through which combustion product gases called fuel gases are exhausted to the outside air.
Fuel gases are produced when coal, oil, natural gas, wood or any other large combustion device.
Fuel gas is usually composed of carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor as well as nitrogen and
excess oxygen remaining from the intake combustion air. It also contains a small percentage of
pollutants such as particulate smatter, carbon mono oxide, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides.
The fuel gas stacks are often quite tall, up to 400 meters (1300 feet) or more, so as to disperse
the exhaust pollutants over a greater aria and thereby reduce the concentration of the pollutants
to the levels required by governmental environmental policies and regulations.

15. Turbines:

A turbine is a rotary mechanical device that extracts energy from a fluid flow and converts it
into useful work. A turbine is a turbo machine with at least one moving part called a rotor
assembly, which is a shaft or drum with blades attached. Moving fluid acts on the blades so that
they move and impart rotational energy to the rotor. 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

Fig:4 Turbine

2.2 Operation:

A working fluid contains potential energy (pressure head) and kinetic energy (velocity head).
The fluid may be compressible or incompressible. Several physical principles are employed by
turbines to collect this energy:
Impulse turbines change the direction of flow of a high velocity fluid or gas jet. The resulting
impulse spins the turbine and leaves the fluid flow with diminished kinetic energy. There is no
pressure change of the fluid or gas in the turbine blades (the moving blades), as in the case of a
steam or gas turbine, all the pressure drop takes place in the stationary blades (the nozzles).
Before reaching the turbine, the fluid's pressure head is changed to velocity head by accelerating
the fluid with a nozzle. Pelton wheels and de Laval turbines use this process exclusively. Impulse
turbines do not require a pressure casement around the rotor since the fluid jet is created by the
nozzle prior to reaching the blading on the rotor. Newton's second law describes the transfer of
energy for impulse turbines.

Turbines develop torque by reacting to the gas or fluid's pressure or mass. The pressure of the
gas or fluid changes as it passes through the turbine rotor blades. A pressure casement is needed
to contain the working fluid as it acts on the turbine stage(s) or the turbine must be fully
immersed in the fluid flow (such as with wind turbines). The casing contains and directs the
working fluid and, for water turbines, maintains the suction imparted by the draft tube. Francis
turbines and most steam turbines use this concept. For compressible working fluids, multiple
turbine stages are usually used to harness the expanding gas efficiently.

General Layout & Basic Idea

A control system of station basically works on Rankin Cycle.

Steam is produced in Boiler is exported in prime mover and is condensed in condenser to be fed
into the boiler again. In practice of good number of modifications are affected so as to have heat
economy and to increase the thermal efficiency of plant.

3.1 Layout of Power Plant

The Thermal Power Station is divided into four main circuits :

Fuel and Ash Circuit.

Air and Gas Circuit.

Feed water and Steam Circuit.

Cooling Water Circuit.

Figure 3.1 Layout of Power Plant

The Thermal Power Station is divided into four main circuits:

Fuel and Ash Circuit.

Air and Gas Circuit.

Feed water and Steam Circuit.

Cooling Water Circuit.

Fuel & Ash Circuit:-

Fuel from the storage is fed to the boiler through fuel handling device. The fuel used in RGTPP
is coal, which on combustion in the boiler produced the ash. The quantity of ash produced is
approximately 35-40% of coal used. This ash is collected at the back of the boiler and removed
to ash storage tank through ash disposal equipment.

Air and Gas Circuit:-

Air from the atmosphere is supplied to the combustion chamber of

Boiler through the action of forced draft fan and induced draft fan. The flue gas gases are first
pass around the boiler tubes and super heated tubes in the furnace, next through dust collector
(ESP) & then economizer. Finally, they are exhausted to the atmosphere through fans.

Feed Water and Steam Circuit:-

The condensate leaving the condenser is first heated in low pressure (LP) heaters through
extracted steam from the lower pressure extraction of the turbine. Then its goes to dearator where
extra air and non-condensable gases are removed from the hot water to avoid pitting / oxidation.
From deaerator it goes to boiler feed pump which increases the pressure of the water. From the
BFP it passes through the high pressure heaters. A small part of water and steam is lost while
passing through different components therefore water is added in hot well. This water is called
the make up water. Thereafter, feed water enters into the boiler drum through economizer. In
boiler tubes water circulates because of density difference in lower and higher temperature
section of the boiler. The wet steam passes through superheated. From superheated it goes into
the HP turbine after expanding in the HP turbine. The low pressure steam called the cold reheat
steam (CRH) goes to the reheater (boiler). From reheater it goes to IP turbine and then to the LP
turbine and then exhausted through the condenser into hot well.
 Cooling Water Circuit:-

A large quantity of cooling water is required to condense the steam in condenser and marinating
low pressure in it. The water is drawn from reservoir and after use it is drained into the river.

COAL HANDLING PLANT

4.1 INTRODUCTION:-

It can be called the heart of thermal power plant because it provided the fuel for combustion
in
boiler. The coal is brought to the RGTPP through rails there are fourteen tracks in all for
transportation of coal through rails. The main coal sources for RGTPP are SECL (South Eastern
Coalfields Limited), NCL (Northern Coalfield Limited).Everyday 6 to 7 trains of coal are
unloaded at RGTPP. Each train consists of 58 wagons and each wagons consists of 50 tones of
coal. The approximate per day consumption at RGTPP is about 18000 metric tones. It costs
approximate 4.5 crores of rupees per day including transportation expenses. The coal is firstly
unloaded from wagon by wagon triplers then crushed by crushers and magnetic pulley and
pulverized to be transformed to the boiler. The whole transportation of coal is through conveyor
belt operated by 3-Ø Induction motor.
The coal handling plant can broadly be divided into three sections :-

1) Wagon Unloading System.

2) Crushing System.

3) Conveying System.

4.2 WAGON UNLOADING SYSTEM:-

4.2.1 Wagon Tripler:-

It unloads the coal from wagon to hopper. The hopper, which is made of Iron , is in the form of
net so that coal pieces of only equal to and less than 200mm. size pass through it. The bigger
ones are broken by the workers with the help of hammers. From the hopper coal pieces fall on
the vibrator. It is a mechanical system having two rollers each at its ends. The rollers roll with
the help of a rope by a slip ring induction motor with specification:
 Figure 6 Wagon Tripler

Rated Output. : 71 KW.

Rated Voltage. : 415 V.

Rated Current. : 14.22 Amp.

Rated Speed. : 975 rpm.

No. of phases. : 3

Frequency. : 50 Hz.

The four rollers place themselves respectively behind the first and the last pair of wheels of the
wagon. When the motor operates the rollers roll in forward direction moving the wagon towards
 otherwise the triple would not be achieved.

4.3 CRUSHING SYSTEM:-

4.3.1 Crusher House:-

It consists of crushers which are used to crush the coal to 20 mm.size. There are mainly two
types of crushers working in RGTPP:-

Primary Crushers i.e. i) Rail crushers or ii) Rotary breaker.

Secondary Crushers. i.e. Ring granulators

Primary Crushers:-

Primary crushers are provided in only CHP stage 3 system, which breaking of coal in CHO Stage
1 & Stage 2 system is done at wagon tripler hopper jail upto the size (-) 250 mm.

Secondary Crusher:-

Basically there are four ways to reduce material size: impact attrition , Shearing and
Compression. Most of the crushers employ a combination of three crushing methods. Ring
granulators crush by compressing accompanied by impact and shearing. The unique feature of
this granulator is the minimum power required for tone for this type of material to be crushed
compared to that of other type of crushers.

4.4 Construction & Operation:-

Secondary crushers are ring type granulators crushing at the rate of 550 TPH

/ 750 TPH for input size of 250 mm. and output size of 20 mm. The crusher is coupled with
motor and gearbox by fluid coupling.Main parts of granulator like break plates, cages , crushing
rings and other internal parts are made of tough manganese (Mn) steel.

The rotor consists of four rows of crushing rings each set having 20 Nos. of toothed rings and 18
Nos. of plain rings. In CHP Stage 1 & 2 having 64 Nos. of ring hammers. These rows are hung
on a pair of suspension shaft mounted on rotor discs.

Crushers of this type employ the centrifugal force of swinging rings stroking the coal to produce
the crushing action. The coal is admitted at the top and the rings stroke the coal downward. The
coal discharges through grating at the bottom

The stacker re-claimer unit can stack the material on to the pipe or reclaim the stack
filed material and fed on to the main line conveyor. While stacking material is being fed
from the main line conveyor via tripler unit and vibrating feeder on the intermediate conveyor
which feds the boom conveyor of the stacker cum reclaimer. During reclaiming the material dis
discharged on to the boom conveyor by the bucket fitted to the bucket wheel body and boom
