    COMBINED CYCLE

    In combined/closed cycle, two combustion turbine-generators operate in conjunction

    with two heat-recovery steam generators and a steam turbine-generator. In the first

    cycle, fuel is burned and the resulting combustion gases power two turbine-

    generators to produce electricity. Hot exhaust normally lost during this process is

    captured and routed through the two heat-recovery steam generators. These unitsboil water to create steam, which spins an additional turbine-generator and

    produces more electricity. Finally, the steam is discharged into a condenser, which

    returns the steam to its liquid state for recycling.

    At FGPS, the gas turbines installed are based on the Brayton Cycle while the steam

    turbine is based on Rankine Cycle. These cycles are explained below.

    BRAYTON CYCLE

    Gas turbines operate on this cycle. In this cycle air is compressed in a compressor.

    This compressed air is used for combustion and the combustion product is allowed to

    expand in the turbine, which is coupled with the generator. In modern gas turbines

    the temperature of the exhaust gases is in the range 500C to 580C.

    RANKINE CYCLE

    The conversion of heat energy to mechanical energy with the aid of

    steam is carried out through this cycle, which involves:

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    8/46

    The initial state of the working fluid is water, which at certain

    temperature is compressed by the pump and fed to the boiler.

    In the boiler the compressed water is heated at constant

    pressure.

    Superheated steam is expanded in the turbine, which is coupled

    with the generator.

    COMBINING TWO CYCLES TO IMPROVE EFFICIENCY

    We have seen in the above two cycles that the gas turbine exhaust is of 500C-580C

    and in the Rankine cycle temperature required to generate is 500C-560C. So we

    use the gas turbine exhaust to generate steam in the Rankine cycle and save fuel

    required to heat the water.

    ADVANTAGE OF THE COMBINED CYCLE PLANTS

    Apart from the higher efficiency, the combined cycle power plants

    have following advantages:

    Low installation cost

    Low gestation period

    Better reliability

    Low environmental pollution

    If efficiency of gas turbine cycle (where natural gas is used as fuel)

    is 31% (which is usually the case) and the efficiency of Rankine

    cycle is 35%, then over all efficiency comes to 49%.

    Overview of the power plant

    Plant overview presents a broad picture on how the fuel is utilized to

    generate power without going much in detail. It shows how the

    different units of a power plant work in tandem to form a complex but

    highly organized system, which is efficient and very reliable.

    9/46

    Gas turbine system

    The gas turbine is a common form of heat engine working with a

    series of processes consisting of compression of air taken from

    atmosphere, increase of working medium temperature by constant

    pressure ignition of fuel in combustion chamber, expansion of SI and

    Internal Combustion (IC) engines in working medium and combustion,but it is like steam turbine in its aspect of the steady flow of the

    working medium.

    For the gas turbine to produce any work, the hot gases must expand

    from a high pressure to a low pressure. Therefore the gases must first

    be compressed. If after the compression the fluid were expanded

    through the turbine, the power produced would equal that used by the

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    10/46

    compressor, provided that both the turbine and compressor

    functioned ideally.

    If heat were added to the fluid before it reached turbine, raising its

    temperature, then an increase in power output could be achieved. If

    more and more thermal energy could be added to the fluid then more

    and more power output could be produced. Unfortunately this cannot

    occur as the turbine blades have metallurgical thermal limit. If the

    gases continuously enter at a temperature higher than this, the

    combined thermal and material stresses in the blades will cause them

    to fail. Typically, inlet temperature of 1300K may be found in

    industrial turbines and inlet temperatures in experimental models are

    up to 1500K.

    At P.P.C.L two gas turbines, Model 9E of make General Electric (GT1)

    and Bharat Heavy Electrical Ltd. (GT2) are being used. The 9E is a

    simple flow cycle, single shaft gas turbine with fourteen reverse-flow

    combustion systems. The 9E assembly consists of six major section or

    groups:

    1. Air inlet.2. Compressor.

    3. Combustion system.

    4. Turbine.

    5. Exhaust.

    6. Support systems.

    1. GAS PATH DESCRIPTIONWhen the turbine starting system is actuated and the clutch

    is engaged, ambient air is drawn through air inlet plenum

    assembly, which is then filtered & compressed in the 17-

    stage, axial flow compressor. Then this compressed air from

    compressor flow into the annular space surrounding the 14-

    combustion chambers. From there, it flows into the

    combustion liners for proper fuel combustion.

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    11/46

    Fuel for combustion is being supplied by Gail (Gas Authority of India

    Ltd.) through HBJ (Hazirapur-Bijapur-Jagdishpur) gas line at a

    pressure of 24Kg at 26oC.

    This fuel is filtered for the removal of solid particles at the Gas

    Conditioning Skid before being fed into 14 equal flow lines each

    terminating at a fuel nozzle centered in the end plate of a separate

    combustion chamber. Prior to being distributed to the nozzles the

    fuel is accurately controlled to provide an equal flow into the 14

    nozzle feed lines at a rate consistent with the speed and the load

    requirements of the gas turbine. The nozzle introduces the fuel into

    the combustion chamber where it is mixed with the combustion air.

    This fuel air mixture is then ignited in one of the 14-chambers and

    the flame thus produced is propagated to ignite other fuel

    chambers through connecting cross-fire tubes. After the turbine

    rotor approximates operating speed, combustion chamber pressure

    causes the spark plugs to retract so as to remove their electrodes

    from the hot flame zone.

    The hot gasses from the combustion chambers expand into 14

    separate transition pieces attached to the aft end of the

    combustion chamber liners & flow from there to three-stageTurbine Section. Each stage consists of a row of fixed nozzles

    followed by a row of routable turbine buckets. In each nozzle row,

    the kinetic energy of the jet increases while the pressure drops &

    each following row of moving buckets, a portion of kinetic energy of

    jet turns the turbine rotor. Since the turbine is coupled to the

    generator rotor, the resulting rotation of turbine is transferred to

    generator, which generates the electrical power.

    After passing the third stage buckets, the exhaust gasses (at about

    570oC) are directed to the HRSG before being directed into exhaust

    hood (at about 140oC). The exhaust hood contains a series of

    turning vanes to turn the gasses from an axial direction to radial

    direction to minimize the exhaust hood losses. The gasses are then

    passed into the exhaust plenum & are expelled into atmosphere

    through the exhaust stack.

    Heat recovery steam generator

    The Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) is installed so as to

    increase the overall efficiency of the plant. It works by using the

    utilizing flue gases of the gas turbine instead of burning fuel to

    produce steam which runs a steam turbine which has a generator

    coupled with it to produce electric power. With HRSG, the efficiency of

    the plant may be in excess of 48%.

    The HRSG, installed at FGPS, is a horizontal, natural circulation, single

    drum, dual pressure, unfired, water-tube boiler. It is designed to

    generate steam quantities 190 T/hr for the HP drum and 40 T/hr for

    the LP drum. The feed water temperature is approximately 275

    degree Celsius for the HP drum while for the LP drum, it is, 150.1 C at

    the designed point.

    The gas turbine flue gases act as the heat source of the boiler. The

    combustion products heat water in a boiler where it is converted to

    steam. This steam drives the steam turbine, which is mechanically

    coupled, to a generator.

    The modern large sized boilers are of water-tube type design. In theseboilers, water flows inside the tubes and the hot flue gases flow

    outside of them. The circulation of water through the tubes of the

    boiler is forced circulation through the action of pumps.

    Flue gas flow

    Flue gases from the exhaust of the Gas turbine are at the temperature

    of 540 degree Celsius and are generally at very high velocity.

    Therefore the fluegases are passed through a diffuser where pressureincreases at the expanse of the velocity. Next the flue gases are

    allowed to pass through diverter damper gates, which permit the flow

    of gases out of the bypass chimney or towards the HRSG depending

    upon the position of the gate. The flue gases then rise along the

    height of the HRSG and are evenly distributed using mechanical

    barriers like gas distribution screens for the horizontal flow of the flue

    gases along the HRSG. The flue gases generally carry smoke, which

    deposit on the water tube as soot and reduce the heat transfer and

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    13/46

    hence HRSG is provided with soot blowers namely FRSB full

    retractable soot blowers and HRSBs as per requirements.

    Salient Features and Operation

    The boiler is divided into nine zones. In order of higher temperature,they are as follows:

    1. HP Super heater-II

    2. HP Super heater

    3. HP Evaporator

    4. HP Economizer II

    5. LP Super heater

    6. LP Evaporator7. HP Economizer I

    8. LP economiser

    9. Condensate preheater (CPH)

    Feedwater at BFP discharge is then pumped separately via HP BFP and

    LP BFP to the High Pressure (HP) and Low Pressure (LP) drums from

    which HP and LP steam is derived respectively. The cycle for both the

    HP and LP steam is basically the same. The water is first taken to therespective economizers to heat the water and then taken to the

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    14/46

    evaporator where the water is converted to steam. This steam is

    further heated to produce superheated steam. This process takes

    place in the respective super heaters. Now, there is a possibility that

    the temperature of the HP steam becomes very high (more than the

    specifications) as there are two super heaters. To prevent the steam

    from attaining very high temperatures, a device called De-Super

    heater is installed between the two super heaters. It works by

    sprinkling water on the steam as the steam passes through it. This

    lowers down the temperature but also wets the steam. The steam is

    dried in the next superheated and hence the temperature of the

    steam is controlled. De-superheated is used only when required and

    the amount of water sprinkled is also controlled so as not to decrease

    the temperature of the steam too low that the second superheated

    cannot increase it to the optimum limit. This superheated steam is

    then taken to the turbine where it is allowed to expand and cool and

    do mechanical work on the turbine rotor. The expanded steam from

    the HP steam still has sufficient amount of heat and is taken to the LP

    turbine. The steam from the LP turbine is taken to the Condenser

    where it is converted back to water, as we cannot pump steam. The

    water is extracted from the condenser by the Condensate Extraction

    Pump (CEP). The water is extracted from the condenser as there is low

    pressure (vacuum, maintained by vacuum pumps) inside the

    condenser which has to be maintained otherwise there is a risk of

    back-flow of steam back to the turbine. So the difference in pressure

    has to be maintained and water has to be forced out. A part of the

    steam is also tapped to seal the turbine, which is cooled in the Gland

    Steam Cooler (GSC). The sealing is very critical as the difference in

    pressure is quite large between that inside the turbine and the

    outside. The steam has the tendency to escape and to prevent that

    we require the sealing. The water from the condenser and GSC is

    pumped together back to the condensate pre-heater and the cycle

    begins again.

    Everything in the plant works on a closed cycle to increase efficiency

    and maintain economical production. The de-mineralized water is

    produced after a long process involving dozing, filtering, reverse

    osmosis, ion exchangers, etc. which makes the water purification

    expensive. So, this water is not wasted and re-used. Only a small

    amount of make-up water is taken from the plant. The condensing

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    15/46

    water (from LSP) in the condenser is cooled again and re-used to

    condense steam to water in the condenser.

    Steam turbine system

    The turbine is a tandem compound machine with High Pressure (HP)and Low Pressure (LP) sections. The HP section is a stage flow turbine

    whereas the LP section is a double flow. Rigid couplings connect the

    individual turbine rotors and generator rotor.

    The HP turbine has been constructed for throttle control governing.

    The initial steam is admitted before the blading by two combined main

    steam stop and control valves.

    The steam from HP turbine exhaust is led to the LP turbine throughcross-around pipes. Additional steam from LP stage of waste heat

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    16/46

    recovery steam generator is passed to the LP turbine via two-

    combined LP stops and control valves.

    HIGH PRESSURE (HP) TURBINE

    The HP turbine is of single flow, double shell, construction with

    horizontally split casing. Allowance is made for thermal movement of

    the inner casing within the outer casing. The main steam enters the

    inner casing from top and bottom. The provision of an inner casing

    confines high steam inlet temperature and pressure conditions to the

    admission section of this casing, while the joint flange of the outer

    casing is subjected only to the lower pressure and temperature

    effective at the exhaust from the inner casing.

    LOW PRESSURE (LP) TURBINE

    The casing of the double flow LP turbine is of three-shell design. The

    shells are of horizontally split-welded construction. The inner casing,

    which carries the first rows of stationary blades, is supported on the

    inner-outer casing so as to allow for thermal expansion. The inner-

    outer casing rests at four points on longitudinal girders, independent

    of the outer casing. Three guide blade carriers, carrying the last guideblade rows are bolted to the inner-outer casing.

    BLADING

    The entire turbine is provided with reaction blading. The moving

    blades of the HP turbine and the initial rows of the LP turbine with

    inverted T-roots and integral shrouding are machined from solid

    rectangular bars. The last stages of the LP turbine consist of twisted,drop forged moving blades with fir-tree roots inserted in

    corresponding grooves of rotor.

    Like the moving blades, the HP stationary blades of HP turbine and the

    front rows of LP turbine are designed with integrally milled inverted T-

    roots and shrouds. The last stages of LP turbine have guide blade rows

    of fabricated construction.

    17/46

    Condensate

    Steam after the extraction of work in the hp and lp turbines goes to

    condenser through flash box where the LP drain enters the condenser.

    Cooling water is supplied by the CW tubes where the water is pumped

    in by CW pumps. Water generally gets heated by 7-8 degree celcius.

    Steam from the LP exhaust gets condensed via indirect heating and is

    collected below in the HOTWELL. Very low pressure in the condenser

    is maintained by vacuum pumps. To make up for the water losses

    during the steam cycle, make up water is added to the condenser via

    DM water line. This DM water can be taken directly from the DM water

    line or through the Reserve Feed Tank. Water from the Hotwell is

    extracted by condensate extraction pumps (CEP). In this module two

    CEPs are provided while only one is operated while other is kept in

    standby mode. Water from the CEP discharge enters the Gland steam

    condenser (GSC) where it is heated by the gland steam via indirect

    heating. Gland steam condenses and is discharged back into the

    condenser. Heated water from the GSC is then taken to LPH and other

    feedwater systems.

    Condenser also receives the HP and LP bypass lanes from the

    turbines. The power-plant chemistry is constantly monitored via the

    specific conductivity and the PH level of the water in the condenser.

    Hotwell level is also important and is constantly controlled.

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    18/46

    Cooling water system

    The water in the coolant tubes of the condenser gets heated and is

    then taken to the cooling towers. Here the water gets sprinkled fromthe top of the specially designed cooling tower where the rising air

    from the bottom cools the water close to its wet bulb temperature.

    Thus temperature is lowered by 7-8 degree celcius. Unsaturated air of

    low relative humidity gets saturated in this process and leaves the

    cooling tower from the top. The suction of the air is provided by the

    induced draft fans provided at the tower top. Thus cooling tower is

    based on the forced draft cooling. Hence the height of the tower is

    quite low.

    Cooled water is discharged into the sump where the make up

    water is added as water loss occurs during the cooling through

    evaporation. Cooling water pumps get the suction from the sump and

    pump the water towards the condenser.

    Feed water system

    LP heater

    Feed water from the GSC enters the LPH where the bled steam heats

    the feed water by indirect heating .LPH bypass lane is also provided

    to bypass the LP heater .

    CPH and CPH RCP

    The water from the LP heater goes to condensate preheater kept at

    the near exhaust of the HRSG. The flue gases before being discharged

    to the atmosphere are used to heat the feedwater. In this process the

    temperature of the flue gases falls down from 160 to 104 degree

    celcius. Generally this is above the saturation temperature of the SOX

    and the NOX gases in the chimney exhaust. When the natural gas is

    used the temperature is quite high and saturation temperature llimitis not reached however if the naptha is used then the flue gas

    temperature is lower by around 10 degree celcius hence the NOX

    gases could condense and form acidic products leading to cold end

    corrosion, if the CPH is used. Hence to overcome this recirculation

    pumps(RCPs) are switched on which pump the hot water at CPH

    discharge back to the CPH inlet thus considerably reducing the heat

    transfer and hence the flue gas temperature doesnt reduce to the

    saturation temperature limit.

    Deaerator

    Water from the CPH heater enters the the deaerator where the

    dissolved gases are removed from it. The steam from the LP

    superheater enters the deaerator from the bottom while the

    feedwater is sprinkled fron the top. The rising steam comes in direct

    contact of water thereby heating the water and the dissolved gases

    which as a result escape from the top along with some of the steam.

    The condence steam and the water are collected below in the storage

    tank. The storage tank is provided with the heating rod which is kept

    hot by the lp steam. The storage tank then separately discharges the

    feedwater to HP and LP BFP.

    The deaerator is generally kept at the height of 20 to 25 meters to

    keep the pressure head above the net positive suction head (NPSH)

    level of the water at thr BFP suction.

    21/46

    ISOLATORS

    Isolators (disconnecting switches) are switches, which operate

    under no load conditions. They are used in addition to circuit

    breakers and are provided on each side of circuit breaker to provide

    isolation and enable maintenance.

    While opening a circuit, circuit breaker is opened first and then theisolator. While closing a circuit, the isolator is closed first and then

    the circuit breaker. Isolators are necessary on supply side of circuit

    breaker to ensure isolation of circuit breaker from live parts for the

    purpose of maintenance.

    EARTHING SWITCH

    Earthing switch is connected between line conductor and earth.Normally, it is open. When the line is disconnected, the earthing

    switch is closed so as to discharge voltage trapped on the line.

    Generally, earthing switches are mounted on the frame of the

    isolators.

    INSULATORS

    Provision of adequate insulation in a sub-station layout is of primary

    importance from the point of view of reliability of supply and safety

    of personnel. The following are the considerations to be made:

    The dielectric strength of the insulating material should be

    high

    It should possess high mechanical strength

    It should posses high resistance to temperature changes

    The leakage current (to the earth) should be minimum to keep

    the corona loss and radio interference within reasonable limits

    The insulator material should not be porous and should be free

    from impurity and cracks.

    The following are the insulators normally used:

    CARRIER EQUIPMENT

    The carrier equipment required for communication, relaying andtelemeter is connected to the line through high frequency cable,coupling capacitor and the wave trap. The wave trap is normallyinstalled at the line entrance.

    LIGHTNING ARRESTORSA sub-station has to be shielded against direct lightning strokes byprovision of overhead shield wire/earth wire or spikes (masts).Besides direct strokes, the equipments should be protected againsttravelling waves due to lightning strokes on the lines entering thesub-station. This is done by lightning arrestor.

    The most important and costly equipment in a sub-station is the

    transformer and the normal practice is to install lightning arrestors as

    near to the transformer as possible. Besides protecting the

    transformer, the lightning arrestor also provides protection to the

    equipment on the bus side located within certain distances

    Transformer

    Transformer is an ac machine that (i) transfer electrical energy

    from one electric ckt to another (ii) does so without a change of

    frequency (iii) does so by the principal of electro-magnetic induction

    and electric ckt that are linked by a common magnetic ckt.

    Operating principal

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    The action of transformer is based on the principal

    that energy may be efficiently transferred by induction from one set of

    coil to another by means of varying magnetic flux

    Emf equation

    Rms value of emf induced = EMF induced per

    turn* no of turn

    =4.44*N*f*(flux)

    Transformer construction

    The transformer is very simple in construction and consists of

    magnetic ckt linking with two winding .it consist of a suitable

    container for assemble core and winding, such as a tank, a suitable

    medium for insulation from it container such as transformer oil, a

    suitable bushing for insulating and bringing out terminal of the

    winding from the container .etc..

    Following main part in the transformer construction;

    1. Core construction ;

    A transformer core is the steel system which

    forms the magnetic with all part pertaining to its construction.

    Those part of magnetic ckt which carry the transformer winding

    are called the limbs or legs. The core material and construction

    should be such that maximum flux is created with minimum

    magnetizing current and minimum core loss. The magnetic frame of

    the transformer is built up of laminated electro-technic steel. Its

    called transformer grade steel consist of 3.5% silicon.

    2. Insulation;

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    24/46

    Insulation used in transformer may be classified into two major group

    viz major insulation and minor insulation. Major insulation between

    winding usually consist of sheet of pressboard and oil ducts. And

    minor insulation include the insulation provided between the element

    of a given winding such as conductor insulation, insulation betweenthe turns, layers and coil.

    3. Insulation oil;

    The insulation oil has provides additional insulation ,

    protect the insulation from and moisture and it carries heat away the

    heat generated in core and coil .

    4. Tank;

    Small capacity tank are fabricated from welded sheet steel,

    while larger one are assembled from plain boiler plates or cast

    aluminium parts.

    5. Temperature gauge;

    Every transformer is provided with a temperature gauge

    to indicate hot oil or hottest spot temperature it is a self contained

    weatherproof unit made with alarm contact.

    7. Oil gange;

    Every transformer is provided with an oil gange to indicate

    the oil level

    8. Breather;

  • 7/27/2019 REPORT Electrical

    25/46

    When the transformer become warm, the oil and gas

    expand. The gas at the top of the oil is expelled out .when the

    transformer cools, air is drawn into the transformer. Unless preventive

    measure are taken, moisture is drawn during the process and it call

    breathing.

    9. Gas operated relay Buchholz relay;

    It is gas and oil actuated protective device and its

    practically universally used on all oil immersed transformer having

    rating more than 750 kva. The use of such relay is possible only

    transformer having conservator.

    10.Bushing;

    Transformer are connected to hv lines and therefore it

    care is to be taken to prevent flash-over from the high voltage

    connection to earthed tank. Connection from cable are made in cable

    boxes. But overhead connection are to be brought through bushingspecial designed for different classes of voltage.

    2. Distribution transformer;

    The transformer f rating upto 200 kva, used

    to step down the distribution voltage to a standard service voltage are

    know as distribution transformer.

    Generator

    Generator is one of the important type of electric machines.

    Large ac network operating at constant frequency of 50 hz its called

    synchronous generator or alternator

    Operation principal;

    The operation principal of generator fundamentally same as the dc

    machine. But in generator there is no need rectify the time varying

    emf which induced in the armature windingit dont required a

    commutator. Synchronous generator because of absence of

    commutator are comparatively simple and possess several importantadvantage over the dc generator

    Generator is a synchronous generator which receives mechanical

    energy from a prime mover to which it is mechanical coupled and

    Shaft Seal Assembly and Seal Steam System

    The external shaft seals at the rotor ends of steam turbine prevent

    the ingress of air through any of the shaft seals and discharge of

    steam to atmosphere. They perform these functions in conjunction

    with the shaft seal steam supply system. HP rear end and LP front

    and rear shaft seals are See through type. The advantage of this

    type of seal is that it is possible to optimize spacings between theseal strips regardless of relative expansions between rotor and

    housing. HP front end has labyrinth type seals. Seal steam from LP

    steam lines of the HRSGs, is fed to seals through a self contained

    hydraulic actuated pressure control valve during startup and low

    load operation. At higher load leak-off from HP turbine glands

    supplies sealing steam through a pressure control valve similar to

    seal steam control valve. 2x100% seal steam exhauster fans extract

    steam-air mixture from turbine glands to maintain slight vacuum

    avoiding steam leakage to atmosphere.
