Thermal power plants generate 75% of India's electricity and require large amounts of land and water resources. The layout of a steam power plant includes four main circuits - fuel and ash, air and gas, feedwater and steam, and cooling water. Proper site selection considers factors like coal availability, space requirements, available water sources, transportation access, labor forces, and distance to populated areas to efficiently operate the power plant.

Presented By: Sanmati jain INTRODUCTION INDIA IS ONE OF THE WORLDS LARGEST CONSUMER OF ENERGY CONVENTIONAL SOURCES: THERMAL, HYDRO AND NUCLEAR. NON- CONVENTIONAL: WIND, SOLAR, GEOTHERMAL, TIDAL. INSTALLED CAPACITY 1,61,352MW THERMAL = 95151.74MW NUCLEAR = 4,120MW HYDRO = 36877.76MW RES = 13242.41MW ANNUAL POWER PRODUCTION 680 BILLION KWH BREAK UP OF POWER THERMAL POWER PLANTS 75% HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER PLANTS - 21% NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS - 4% INSTALLED WIND POWER GENERATION 9655MW 30% TO 40% OF ELECTRICAL POWER IS LOST IN TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION
GENERAL LAYOUT OF STEAM POWER PLANT MAIN CIRCUIT FUEL AND ASH CIRCUIT AIR AND GAS CIRCUIT FEED WATER AND STEAM CIRCUIT COOLING WATER CIRCUIT FUEL AND ASH CIRCUIT FUEL STORED AND FED TO THE BOILER THROUGH CONVEYOR BELTS. BROKEN DOWN INTO PROPER SHAPE FOR COMPLETE BURNING. ASH THUS GENERATED AFTER BURNING IS REMOVED FROM THE BOILER THROUGH ASH HANDLING EQUIPMENT
AIR AND GAS CIRCUIT AIR IS REQUIRED FOR COMBUSTION OF FUEL AND IS SUPPLIED THROUGH FANS AIR IS PASSED THROUGH AIR PREHEATER TO EXTRACT ENERGY FROM FLUE GASES FOR PROPER BURNING OF THE FUEL FLUE GASES HAVE ASH AND SEVERAL GASES WHICH ARE PASSED THROUGH THE PRECIPITATOR(DUST COLLECTOR) AND GO TO ATMOSPHERE THROUGH CHIMNEY.
FEED WATER AND STEAM CIRCUIT STEAM CONVERTED TO WATER BY CONDENSER. WATER IS DEMINERALIZED & HENCE NOT WASTED TO HAVE BETTER ECONOMIC OPERATION OF THE PLANT. SOME PART OF STEAM AND WATER IS LOST WHILE PASSING THROUGH DIFFERENT PARTS. BOILER FEED PUMP FEEDS WATER INTO THE BOILER DRUM WHERE IT IS HEATED TO FORM STEAM. WET STEAM IS AGAIN HEATED IN SUPER HEATER BEFORE PASSING THROUGH THE TURBINE STEAM IS EXPANDED IN THE TURBINE TO RUN IT. AFTER WHICH AGAIN IT GOES TO BOILER FOR REHEATING
COOLING WATER CIRCUIT
TO CONDENSATE THE STEAM, LARGE QUANTITY OF COOLING WATER IS REQUIRED WHICH IS TAKEN FROM RIVER OR PONDAGE AFTER PASSING THROUGH THE CONDENSER, IT IS FED BACK TO THE RIVER OR PONDAGE BOILER TURBINE TURBINE FULL VIEW SELECTION OF SITE AVAILABILITY OF COAL.
