a. Economiser:
i. Feed water from HP heater outlet is supplied to the Economizer through the economizer
inlet pipe. The recirculation flow from BCP joins at the HP feed water outlet, during wet
mode operation. The total feed water flow to the boiler is measured by the triple redundant
flow transmitters, which are used for feed water flow control. The pressure and
temperature are also measured at the inlet to the economizer. This line has also a drain
connection to the boiler flash tank
ii. The economizer is located in the secondary pass of the boiler. The secondary pass section
of the boiler has two passes viz SH pass and RH pass, and both the passes have economizer
bank, one bank in the RH pass and three banks in the SH pass. One stream of the feed
water from the economizer inlet header flows through the economizer RH pass,
economizer intermediate header RH pass and the economizer hanger RH pass to the
economizer outlet header. The second stream of the feed water from the economizer inlet
header flows through the economizer SH pass, economizer intermediate header RH pass,
the economizer hanger SH pass to the economizer outlet header.

b. Piping:
Two (2) main steam lines carry the steam from boiler outlet to the HP turbine inlet. The HP
turbine exhaust steam is carried back to the boiler through a single cold reheat pipe, which
bifurcates at the boiler end and connects to RH inlet header. The hot reheat steam is carried to
IP turbine inlet through two (2) HRH steam lines.

c. Vents and drains:


Vents and drains are provided in the boiler pressure parts, main steam and RH steam lines for
air venting and draining condensate formed during start-up, low load operation & shutdown.

d. Water Separator:
All secondary pass outlets join at secondary pass rear wall outlet header from where it flows to
water separator through four (4) WS inlet pipes. The function of Water Separator is to
segregate the steam water mixture. The mixture enters tangentially and is segregated due to the
centrifugal action, where the heavier water particles drain down and steam moves up. The
steam flows to Primary SH and water drains down to WSDT (Water separator Drain Tank)
through WSDT inlet pipe. The secondary pass bypass pipes from roof outlet header join the
WS inlet pipes.

f. Secondary Pass Walls:


The secondary pass walls consist of the secondary pass front/rear/side/division walls. The
division walls divides the secondary pass into two (2), the RH pass and SH pass, diverting the
hot flue gas into two streams. Like furnace walls, the secondary pass walls also form a gas tight
enclosure.
The water/steam mixture from roof outlet header flows to secondary pass inlet manifold
located at the two sides of the boiler through secondary pass inlet pipes. The temperature of
water/steam mixture entering the manifold is measured by three (3) temperature elements
provided in each inlet pipe. The manifold can be vented through a common air vent pipe
provided with isolation valves. The secondary pass inlet pipes have drain connection to boiler
flash pipe with isolation valves. Secondary pass front wall inlet header is fed by secondary pass
front wall supply pipes from the two secondary pass inlet manifolds. The water/steam mixture
rises up through secondary pass front wall & secondary pass front wall screen and is collected
at secondary pass front wall outlet header, from where it flows to secondary pass rear wall
outlet header through secondary pass front wall outlet pipe. The secondary pass division wall
inlet header is fed by secondary pass division wall supply pipes from the two secondary pass
inlet manifolds. The water/steam mixture rises up through secondary pass division wall &
secondary pass division wall screen and is collected at secondary pass division wall outlet
header, from where it flows to secondary pass rear wall outlet header through secondary pass
division wall outlet pipe. Secondary pass side wall inlet headers are fed by secondary pass side
wall supply pipes, one each from corresponding side secondary pass inlet manifold. The
water/steam mixture rises up through secondary pass side wall and is collected at secondary
pass side wall outlet headers, from where it flows to secondary pass rear wall outlet header
through secondary pass side wall outlet pipes. The secondary pass rear wall inlet header is fed
by secondary pass rear wall supply pipes from the two secondary pass inlet manifolds. The
water/steam mixture rises up through secondary pass rear wall and is collected at secondary
pass rear wall outlet header. The header is provided with a vent.

g. Water wall
The fluid in the front wall and both side walls are collected at respective outlet headers and
mixed at roof inlet manifold. Thus, fluid temperature is equalized before entering roof inlet
header. The fluid in the rear wall is mixed at rear wall hanger inlet manifold and passage side
wall inlet manifold.
The fluid from roof outlet header is mixed again in the secondary pass inlet manifolds before
distributing to each secondary pass wall tubes. All water wall including passage.
All water walls including passage wall and secondary pass walls are supported from boiler
structure via rigid hanger holding upper headers, except roof wall. The roof wall is supported
from boiler structure via superheater, reheater, and economizer support structures that are

M.P. Power Generating Company Page 27


O&M of Boiler & Auxiliaries

welded to roof tubes.

The water walls have buck stay system which is support that consist of four girders installed in
the four sides of furnace walls; right side wall, left side wall, front side wall and rear side wall.
Buck stay is designed to resist longitudinal load such as internal and external pressure, normal
load such as internal pressure, moment bending because of support bracket of pressure part,
and temporary load such as explosion, wind and seismic forces. It prevents furnace walls from
deformation and also prevents buckling of the tubes during heating and cooling process of the
boiler. At the corner design buck stay is hinged to permit expansion on the furnace walls and
prevents any swing.
The boiler expansion patterns are as follows:
• Vertical direction: 396.2 mm at furnace bottom
• Side direction: 81.0 mm at side wall
• Front direction: 61.5 mm at Furnace Front Wall, 75.5 mm at Inter. 1st Header ( Front Wall)
• Rear direction: 141.259 mm at secondary pass rear wall
As abnormal expansion causes tube failure, boiler expansion should be checked during start-
ups and periodically during normal operation.
All outer surfaces of the water wall are covered by insulation materials and casing. The
insulation materials are held by insulation pins that are fusion welded to the fin part of
membrane wall.
The Water walls have many openings such as manholes, observation ports, soot blower
openings or instrument taps. The water wall tubes are bent to outside of the wall and seal
boxes with refractory cover that area. Removable formed refractory or fire bricks are placed at
big openings such as manholes.

j. Superheaters
The steam from the water separator get further heating as it flows through the Primary,
Secondary and tertiary superheater. The superheated steam at boiler outlet flows to HP turbine
through main steam pipe. Steam temperature is basically controlled by ratio of feed water and
firing rate. In addition to fuel ratio, steam temperature is exactly controlled by two (2) stages
of de-superheating. The feed water branched at economizer outlet is sprayed in DSH to lower
the steam temperature.

n. Reheater:
Reheat steam is at 596°C, increasing the enthalpy of reheat steam. Reheating of steam
improves the plant cycle efficiency. The reheating is done in two (2) stages, first in the Primary
RH and then in the Secondary RH. A DSH is provided in between the two RH stages, as a
measure for controlling RH steam temperature, in case of emergency. Spray water tapped from
BFP intermediate stage is sprayed into RH DSH. The RH steam is normally controlled by the
gas distribution dampers provided in the secondary pass after the economizer and burner tilt.
o. Primary Reheater:
The Primary RH is located in the secondary pass RH pass. The cold reheat steam pipe (R0) is
connected to Primary RH inlet headers from where it flows to Primary RH outlet header
through Primary RH and Primary RH terminal.

p. Reheater DSH:
The steam flows to RH DSH through RH DSH inlet pipe. RH DSH is always kept warmed
during plant operation by a small amount of steam flow through RH DSH warming pipe (R11)
which is tapped from Primary RH inlet header. The RH DSH inlet steam temperature is
monitored by temperature elements Thermowells are also installed at RH DSH inlet. Two (2)
each pressure transmitters and three (3) each temperature elements are installed on both HRH
lines to control RH DSH pressure and temperature by spray control valve. Temperature is also
monitored by temperature elements. Pressure pockets are also installed on each RH DSH spray
line.
q. Secondary Reheater:
The Secondary RH is located in horizontal passage, just after 3ry SH. Steam from RH DSH
flows to Secondary RH inlet header through RH DSH outlet pipes. The steam is further heated
to final RH steam temperature in the Secondary RH Panel and the hot reheat steam flows to
Secondary RH outlet header.

There is only a single stage of de-superheating, done in the reheater, which is located between
the Primary RH outlet and Secondary RH inlet.

Spray water tapped from BFP intermediate stage is used in the RH DSH. The spray is used
during emergency conditions, when the normal means of controlling RH steam temperature
does not provide the desired result and RH steam temperature is still increasing. The spray
flow is measured by a flow transmitter and the spray water pressure and temperature is
monitored by pressure transmitter and temperature element respectively. The spray line
bifurcates and connects to the two RH DSHs, located on LH/RH sides of the boiler
Each spray line to RH DSH has a spray control valve with an air operated ON/OFF inlet valve
and outlet gate valve with balance valve. Check valve & isolation valve is provided. A drain
connection from outlet of check valve is connected to boiler flash pipe through double
isolation valves. There is also a drain line at inlet of spray CV for depressurization during
maintenance, which has double isolation valves.

r. BCP, Recirculation Line & Minimum Flow Line:


The water from WSDT flows to BCP suction through WSDT outlet pipe& WSDT outlet
temperature is monitored by temperature element. The WSDT outlet pipe has two branch off
connections, one to BCP suction and the other to WSDT level control valves. A suction
strainer is provided before BCP. BCP discharge is connected to HP feed water heater outlet
through boiler recirculation valve. A motor operated check valve is provided at outlet of BCP
to prevent any possibility of reverse flow, when BCP is stopped during dry mode operation.
There is motor operated isolation valve at BCP inlet and motor operated check valve at BCP
outlet. The boiler recirculation flow and temperature is monitored by flow transmitter and
temperature element respectively.

s. Warming Water Lines


BCP and WSDT control valves remain closed during dry mode operation of the boiler.
However, it is necessary to keep the equipment and pipelines of start-up system warm, always
during normal operation of the plant. Warming water is tapped from economizer outlet and
supplied to BCP and WSDT control valves. The warming line has an isolation valve.The line
bifurcates and is connected as follows:

t. BCP Warming line


From the warming line, water flows to BCP discharge through a needle valve and check valve
and reverse flow takes place through BCP, suction line, WSDT outlet pipe, injection water line
and gets connected to SH Secondary DSH spray water line. The warming line from injection
water line to SH Secondary DSH spray water line is provided with a motor valve and a control
valve and is in operation only during dry mode operation.

u. BCP and auxiliaries


The function of BCP as described earlier is to recirculate water drawn from WSDT to
economizer inlet, where it joins the BFP outlet flow and flows to economizer. 25% MCR flow is
maintained minimum during start-up of supercritical boiler, and out of this 20%MCR flow is by
BCP. As firing rate is increased, BCP recirculation decreases and when WSDT Level decreases
below some point BCP will be stopped, (load >25% and dry mode operation) the BCP is
stopped.

The main flow path of BCP is the water path from WSDT to HP feed water heater outlet,
minimum flow recirculation and warming flow line. The BCP associated equipment are BCP
heat barrier, BCP purge water cooler, BCP motor and cooler.

v. BCP and auxiliaries


Heat barrier is located between the pump and the motor and minimizes the heat transfer and
possible overheating of the motor. Heat barrier is continuously cooled by circulating cooling
water from CCW system. Water is tapped from the CCW supply through an isolation valve,
check valve and is connected to heat barrier through flexible hoses. The outlet from heat barrier
joins the cooling water return through a flow switch, check valve, and an isolation valve. The
temperature of the water is monitored locally by temperature indicator. Six temperature
elements are provided in the pump casing and motor cavity to monitor the heat barrier
temperature and also are interlocked to trip BCP at high values. There is a provision to supply
emergency cooling water from CCW tank as back up to heat barrier through a check valve and
air operated ON/OFF valve. It joins the cooling water supply line after the check valve. During
such situations, the outlet from heat barrier is drained to floor drain through an isolation valve &
air operated ON/OFF valve.

w. BCP Motor Cooler:


The BCP motor is filled with water which is re-circulated by the bearing thrust plate mounted in
motor shaft for cooling of bearings and motor winding. This water is cooled in an external
cooler by cooling water from CCW system.

Cooling water is tapped from the CCW supply through an isolation valve and is connected
to motor cooler through flexible hoses. A drain line with isolation valve is provided for the
cooler. The outlet from the cooler joins the cooling water return through a flow switch, and an
isolation valve. The temperature of the water is monitored locally by temperature indicator. An
air vent with isolation valve is provided in shell side to clear the entrapped air, after isolation
valve.

x. BCP Purge Water Cooler & Filling Line:


The BCP motor is filled with condensate quality water before start-up; water from Condensate
Pump (CP) outlet is used for this. During operation, it is possible to replenish the fill water by
water tapped from HP heater outlet. Both type of water is cooled in BCP purge water cooler,
before it is used for filling the motor cooling circuit.

Water tapped from HP heater outlet is connected to inlet of BCP purge water cooler
through a check valve and inlet isolation valve. Water tapped from CP outlet joins the above
line through isolation valves and check valve before the inlet isolation valve.
The BCP takes the suction from the WSDT and re-circulates approx. 20 % MCR flow. The
recirculation flow joins the approx. 5 % BFP flow and total approx. 25% is fed to the boiler. The
excess 5 % MCR flow is discharged to the condenser from the WSDT as per the water level in
the WS. This mode of operation of the supercritical boiler is called Wet Mode Operation. The
specification of the Boiler Circulation Pump (BCP) provided in the boiler is as under-

Flame detectors are provided for detecting flame of each coal and oil burner of the boiler. Total
72 numbers (48 nos for Oil and 24 nos for coal flame detectors of IDD-ll series) Forney make
Flame detectors are provided for one boiler. The detectors are capable of distinguishing between
the flame produced by oil and coal depending on the detector settings. The flame detectors are
wired directly to the Flame detector modules placed in the BMS panel.

Flame scanner cooling fan supplies cooling air to the flame detector associated with each fuel oil
and coal burner through flexible hoses.

M.P. Power Generating Company Page 41


O&M of Boiler & Auxiliaries

Each fuel oil burner is provided with burner cooling air. This cooling air is supplied by flame
scanner cooling fan and is supplied to all burners through flexible hoses.
In addition, each igniter associated with oil burner is supplied with air tapped from the flame
scanner cooling airline to burners through flexible hoses.
Wind box seal air is also supplied by flame scanner cooling air fan and is tapped from the
common header.

From the common suction duct, one (1) tap offs is taken; which forms the common suction duct
to the AC motor driven flame detector cooling air fan and is provided air filter

Another tap off is taken which forms the suction duct to the DC motor driven flame detector
cooling air fan with air filter
The AC motor driven flame detector cooling fan is on duty normally during plant operation and
the DC motor driven cooling fan comes into operation when AC driven fan trips or during plant
black out. The DC motor driven fan also starts automatically, when the differential pressure
between the furnace and flame detector fan common discharge duct falls below a pre-set value.
There are two no of pressure transmitters at fan Outlet as follows.
The TV camera located at boiler furnace has instrument air for cooling. The instrument air also
goes to the sealing chamber of the TV camera. It prevents the backflow of hot gas from furnace
on account of fluctuation of furnace draft resulting from the combustion of fuel.

g. Wind Box
The steam generators use fuel and combustion air into the furnace through 24 nos. burner
windbox assemblies in 8 corners and 3 different elevations. The fuel (coal and oil) and air (aux.)
nozzles of the windbox assemblies are aligned to form two firing circles at the center of the each
half of the rectangle. This produces a fireball in the furnace with a rotating, swirling action that
mixes the fuel effectively with the auxiliary air.
Each vertically arranged burner assembly consists of two coal burners and one oil
burner. The six coal burners, in each corner, are numbered as A, B, C, D, E & F and the oil
burners are numbered as AB, CD & EF.
There are 48 coal burners and 24 oil burners in steam generator. The oil burner
compartment is located between two coal compartments. The auxiliary air compartments are
located adjacent to each coal burner compartment.
Additional air-port windbox assemblies are located above the burner windbox assembly
in each corner. The use of additional air through the AA burners reduces the production of
nitrogen oxides in the furnace. There are two elevations of AA compartments, in each AA Port
Windbox, naming AA (upper) and AA (lower) in each corner. So, windbox dampers are
composed of oil dampers, coal dampers, dampers at adjacent elevation of oil & coal burner, and
additional air dampers

h. Fuel Oil Firing System


The oil burners are used for boiler start-up & supports the initial firing upto 40% of BMCR load.
The first coal burner is taken into service at 20% TMCR load, when hot PA temperature reaches
the desired value. Each oil burner is equipped with a HEA (High Energy Arc) type direct ignitor,
which discharges an electric spark adequate to ignite the oil spray of start-up oil burner. The oil
burner provides the necessary ignition energy for the pulverized coal burner startup and stabilizes
coal firing. Oil burners are then removed from service and the plant operation continues with coal
firing. Flame monitoring devices are provided for fuel oil and coal burners.

The coal is fed to the pulverizer through a coal feeder driven by a variable speed electric motor.
The speed of the coal feeder is varied to control the gravimetric flow rate of coal as per the load
demand. The pulverized coal is transported through independent coal pipes to the four coal
burners for combustion in the furnace of the boiler with the assistance of hot air.
Pulveriser is L&T MHPS make Vertical Mills Model MVM 32 F.
Two pulverizer seal air fans are provided (one working and one standby). Seal air from this fan
is supplied to parts of the pulverizer.
Pulverizerinerting steam from the Auxiliary Steam System is supplied to the lower housing.
Steam is automatically supplied to the hot air inlet duct to establish an inert atmosphere inside
the pulverizer at the time of tripping or cleaning and purging operation of the pulverizer. The
inert atmosphere prevents any possible ignition of residual coal in the stopped pulverizer.
The pulverizer is a vertical, pressurized (air swept) type, essentially consisting of a grinding
chamber with a fixed separator mounted above. Grinding table assembly along with the
three freely rotating rollers on the roller journal assembly constitute the grinding components
of the pulverizer.

The primary function of the coal firing system is to
• Grind the raw coal received from the coal bunkers to the desired fineness.
• Reject the non-combustible materials from the coal.
• Transport the pulverized coal to the coal burners for the subsequent firing in the furnace.

Coal Burners Description


The coal burner consists of a fixed coal burner body that receives the fine pulverized coal
through the coal pipes. The coal burner body is supported at the partition plate by two supports.
A core assembly located between the above two supports and two splitter plates located at the
