Standard Technical Features of BTG System for Supercritical 660/800 MW Thermal Units

7.3 Dampers
7.3.1 Power operated gas tight isolation dampers along with their drives shall be
provided at all locations required for carrying out internal repair and
maintenance of pulverizers, electrostatic precipitators and induced draft fans
when the steam generator is on load. As a minimum following locations shall
be provided with power operated gas tight dampers/ gates:
i) Guillotine gate type a) In hot air duct at inlet to each mill.
dampers b) On each twin inlet and twin outlet of each
ESP stream.
c) Before and after each ID fan.
d) At inlet to each of the regenerative air
pre- heaters on flue gas side.
e) At discharge of each of PA fan.
f) At each economizer bypass duct
(2x100%) (if provided).
g) Interconnecting duct dampers as
necessary.
ii) Double multilouver/ a) Before and after each of the regenerative
bi-plane type dampers air pre-heater & SCAPH on air side.
b) At discharge of each of FD fan.
7.3.2 Heavy duty multilouver dampers shall be provided at locations not requiring
tight shut off duty.
7.3.3 Pneumatically or motor operated control dampers shall be provided at the
following locations and a minimum:

i) Hot and cold air inlet to each mill.

ii) At each air preheater outlet on flue gas path (if applicable).

7.3.4 All dampers/ gates at ID fan discharge, primary and secondary APH outlets on
air side, primary and secondary APH inlets on flue gas side and in hot air
ducts to mill inlet shall be provided with 2x100% pressurization fans to
achieve 100% sealing efficiency. Alternatively, the above dampers can be
provided with sealing air from cold air bus duct suitably meeting the
requirement of 100% sealing.

7.3.5 The multilouver dampers shall be capable of effectively stopping the flow
when in closed position and while in full open position shall cause minimum
pressure drop. The isolating damper design shall provide positive shutoff
when closed.

7.3.6 All regulating dampers/vanes/blade pitch controls coming under auto

regulation shall be able to provide the desired relationship between percentage
opening and the flow.
