13 BOILER LOSSES to be taken care off seriously of COAL FIRED STATIONS

14 The major factors to be looked into in TURBINE SIDE LOSSES Main steam and reheat steam inlet parameters (For every 1 drop in Main Steam/ R H temperature than the designed value of 537 C, causes a heat loss of approx 0.67 KCal/KWh 1 KG/CM2 drop in Main Steam Pressure at Turbine Inlet than the design value i.e 150 KG/CM2 causes a heat loss of approx KCal/KWh) Turbine exhaust steam parameters Reheater and super heater spray Passing of high energy draining Loading on the turbine Boiler loading and boiler performance Operations and maintenance constraints Condenser performance and cooling water parameters Silica deposition and its impact on the turbine efficiency Inter stage sealing, balance drum and gland sealing Sealing fins clearances Nozzle blocks Turbine blade erosion Functioning of the valves Operational status of HP heaters

20 Efforts towards improvement in Efficiency of Thermal Power Generation

21 Adoption of Supercritical Technology Efficiency gain of about 2 % is possible over sub critical units First Supercritical unit of 660 MW Commissioned in Dec- 2010, 800 MW in July,12 33 Units with total capacity MW operating Supercritical to constitute ~40%(~25000MW) coal fired capacity addition in 12 th Plan ( ) 100% coal fired capacity addition in 13 th Plan and beyond to be supercritical

22 EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENT THROUGH RENOVATION AND MODERNISATION Programme To restore rated capacity and design parameters such as Heat Rate, APC, SOC etc.. To make the operating units well equipped with modified/ augmented latest technology. To overcome technological obsolescence and non-availability of spares. To improve the performance parameters in terms of PLF, Efficiency, Forced Outages, Availability and Reliability. To reduce maintenance requirements and enhance the ease in maintenance. Compliance of stringent environmental norms, safety and other statutory requirements.

23 Renovation & Modernization of old thermal power stations is an economical option to supplement capacity addition programme for increased power availability and Efficiency Extension of useful economic life of generating units by another years. To focus on full load operation of the unit beyond their original design life. Uprating of Generating Unit. Improvement beyond design parameters.

24 Drivers for E E R&M Availability of Coal, Land & Water is becoming more difficult for new power projects. Coal is an exhaustible natural resource. Hence, its saving through efficiency enhancement is desirable. R&M results in lower Specific Coal Consumption. R&M is one of the most cost effective measure for getting additional generation. Additional generation from old units becomes available in very short duration. 24 ( Contd--)

25 The benefits expected from Comprehensive R&M in a typical 200/210 MW unit include : - - Increased output by about 4-8% - Improved Unit Heat Rate by 10-15% - Extended Plant Life by about years. There is a shift from Generation Maximisation to Generation Optimisation with efficiency enhancement. Efficiency enhancement of about 8-10% is feasible in the existing LMZ units. Increased emphasis on Environment for clean technology. The environmental norms are getting more and more stringent.

28 RETIREMENT OF POWER PLANTS Retirement in a systematic manner an ongoing activity with focus on closing down Small and Old units Units of non-reheat type Units having very low design efficiencies Units having very low actual efficiency

29 Present Methodology for Retirement of units Units deviating more from design to retire first Retirement is linked to commissioning of new units In case of Gas based, Technology changing rapidly. Faster retirement could be considered to keep abreast with technology development

30 RETIREMENTS OF OLD UNITS Details of Retirements : 11 th Plan MW has already been retired comprising mainly of small size ( <100 MW),old and non reheat units 12 th Plan12-17( Planned) MW (< 100 MW coal units, > 35 years old Gas stations) till date 771 MW 13 th Plan (Planned) about 4000MW

35 MAJOR REASONS FOR THE HIGH OPERATING GROSS HEAT RATE 1. Low combustion efficiency due to improper air-fuel ratio. 2. Poor performance of milling system to meet new demand. 3. Low turbine cylinder efficiency 4. High dry gas losses due to poor heat transfer 5. Poor sealing and heat transfer in air pre-heaters 6. Low condenser vacuum. 7. High air ingress in the boiler and high heat loss due to poor insulation 8. Improper mill maintenance due to poor spare availability 9. Poor quality of coal 10.High auxiliary power consumption
