FLOWS- STEAMAND WATER

Totalfeedwaterflow will be determinedby the calibratedASME pTc 6 primaryflow nozzle


using
the methodoutlinedin the procedurefor the turbineacceptancetest. lf this methodproves
too
restrictivedue to coordination/schedulingconflictswith the iurbineacceptancetest,an altemative
is available.As an attemative/backup/comparison, feedwaterflow measurement is atso available
ftom the stationfinal feedwaterelementusing a calibrateddifferentialpressure
transmitteror a
high pressure manometer.Feedwatertemperatureand pressurewill also be
measured for
conectionto designspecificationsof the flow element.
Duringall \A//o tests,boilerblowdownshouldbe shut off. lf the boilercan't be operated
with it
shut off, some way to measure/estimate the flow must be agreed to. Unless required,
sootblowerswill not be usedduringthe tests. lf required,the sootblowingrecords

The f rst adjustmentis for the test coal's HGl. This adjustmentaccounts
for the change in

The secondtypeof flowadjustment is for millthermallimitationdueto the moisturein the test

lf the measured coal flow is "nea/ the mill's thermal limit the test will be passed. The term "nea/
is used loosely here because Curve #3 is not exact. Dependingon other variables such as
mill
outlet temperatureand how the moisturein the coal is bound, the predibtedmill capacity limits can
vary. For example,measuring178,OoO lb/hrof coalflow when the predictedthermallimit iss only
175,000lb/hrwould be considered.near..

Because these other variablesmake the moisturethermal limit curves less-than-perfect,it would
be best to use a test coal as close as possibleto the 24% design moistureto avoid having
to
account for this variable.

1. I N T R O D UC T ION

The two fan systemsthat will be tested in the field using this test procedureare PA Fans
"A" and "8" buittto Howden'sdrawingsnumbered2097F55and 2096F50,respectively.

The performancetestingwill be in accordancewith AMCA Standard803-87,"Site


PerformanceTest StandardFor PowerPlantand lndustrialFans".

The performanceof a fan when installedin a systemis dependentnot only on the fan,
but also on the systen:and on the interactionof one with the other. The inlet flow profile
has a significanteffecton the performanceof a fan. This standarddefinss an acceptable
intetflow profiteof whichthe system has insignificanteffecton fan performance.Any
instailationthat does not fall within the definedlimitationis regardedas unacceptablefor
the purposeof site testingto this standard. An unacceptableinstallationmust be
alteied'tobring it withinthe requirementsstatedin this standardfor the purposeof
judging fan performanc€acceptability.

The followingpagesdetailthe test methodand the calculationsused in this code'

2. ACCESSPORTS

To arcess the gas stream,access ports are providedas shown on the General
AssembtyDrawings. On each inlet box, there are nine (g) 4' NPT x 5" long pipesc/w
caps installedjusibelow the inlet of the inlet box, equallyspaced along the long side of
the inlet box. These portsare to be accessedwith a probe used to measurestatic
pressure(P,r)and velocitypressure(P6) atfan inlets. This velocitypressure
measurementwill be used to determinethe flow rate and for flow profileevaluation.

The four staticpressuretaps at fan outlet should be installedas shown on the G.A.
- one per side at 90 degreeapart at the end of the dischargecone. The
drar,rrings
aueragl value of these readingsdeterminesthe staticPressureat fan outlet(P.r).

to deterrninevelocitydistortionparametersand flow.

??, VelocityPrcfileMeasurements:

Py readingsare taken at Plane 1 with a pitot-statictube and a manometer,which is of


inclinedoil fluid type.

ln order to obtain representativemeasurementsin plane 1, it is necessaryto dividethis


plane into elemenralareas and take measurernentsat the centroidof each elemental
area.

For rectangularcross section,the minimumnumberof traversepoints is 24 and its


minimumr-quirementincreaseswith increasingarea , as defined in Figure2
(reproducedfrom Figure74 afAMCA SO3€7). For cross-sectionalarea of about29 tt
at plane 1 and 9 accessports, 36 traversepointswill be used.

34 StaticPressureMeasurements:

Inletstaticpressure(P"') is measuredat sameplane3s Pvrusing the same pitot-static


tube and a manometerthat can be of waterfilled U-tube.

Ougetstaticpressure(P,2)is obtainedfrom the averagevalue taken at the static


pressuretaps installedat fan discharge.

3.5 PowerMeasurements:

Fan inputpower shall be determinedthroughthe use of calibratedelectricmotor in


conjunctionwith electricline measurements.Measurementof current,voltage,watts and
powerfactorcan be obtainedby using industrialtype power analyzer. lf a genericmotor
curve is used,greaterdegreeof uncertaintyis expected.

3.6 S p e e dM e a su re me n ts:

The fan speedmust be held constantduringa test. Speed shouldbe recordedat the
beginningof the test and at specifiedtime intervalsnot to exceed20 minutesfor the

PLANT TEST PROCEDURE.

l'reamble

I'erformance requirements and plant capacity specifications are described in Section 8


and Section 9 of thc Specificarion.

Mechanical Requirements for the various components (thickness, configuration, etc)


have been described in detailed drawings which hsve bcen submittcd and approved
and the equipment, as built, has been inspected to ensure compliance.

Storage capacities have also bcen determined during the design phase and are
confirrned in the compliance of the cquipment, as built, with the approved drawings.

1hc jet pumps, which provide the motive power for pyrites removal, havc been rype
tr:sted to verify water consumption and evacuation capacity beforc the equipmenr was
shipped. No other testing of the pyrites system is recommended or prescribed as part
ol'this procedure.

In addition to rnechanicat and storage capacity requirements. tbe specification of rhe


submerged scrap€r conveyor calls for two other performance criteria to be satisfied:

l'- A maxirnum peak dry ash rate of 20 MTPH and a norrnal rate of 5 MTPH:

2- The moisture in the ash as it discharges from lhe submerged scraper conveyor
shall be at a level to permit conveying with thc bett conveyor.
'l'he
following procedure is a proposed method for determining that the plant mccts
these criteria.

\
--j

Note: The accurar:y of tlris rnethod improves as the size of the receiving bin
increases. If a small rcceiving hin is u-sed,care tnust bc taken to cnsure that timc
me&surcment does skew thc rcsult and that thc time measured is an accuratc reflection
rrf tfie true rate of scrapcr blades pa-ssingover the conveyor head. Ltkewise, the level
gf ash should be rhc full hcighr of the scraper blades throughout the test. Any mal-
ctistribution of ash cturing the collection period, which leaves some of the scraPer
hlades only partially covered, will reduce the determined grnvimeric capacity
runnecessarily.

l)e-wrtering Capability

l. fhe mosr praclical and cconomic method of establishing compliance of the


plant with this requirement is to perform tesls when the boiler is in service and
producing ash of the anticipated quality and quantity defined in the specification.
I-lnder these circumsrances, rhc normal operation of the submerged scrapcr conveyor
shor.rld be internrpted lo allow ash to build up to the maximrun depth over the
c:onveyor. Notc: intemtpring the operation of the submerged scraper conveyor while
the boiler is in scrvice is not recoruncnded as part of any regular pattcrn of boiler
(lpeftrtion; the possibility of vcry high loads on the scrapcr comPonents during sErt-uP

Boiler Efficiency

The Boiler Efficiency Calculations meet the intent of the ASME


Power Test Code (ASME PTC 4.L, and other recognized authorities.
The calculat,ions can be performed by either the Heat Loss Method
of the Input-Output Method.

Results of the Heat Loss Method are:


1. Heat loss due to dry gas
2. Heat loss due to radiation
3. Heat loss due to water from combustion
4. Heat loss due to combusLibl-es in refuse
5. Heat loss due to moisture in air
6. Heat loss due to moisture in fuel
7. Unaccounted for losses

Losses are calculated as a percent, thus the boiler efficiency


is (100t-Total Losses)

Results of the Input-Output Method are:


1. Total heat input to the boiler
2. Total Heat output from the boiler

Loss due to dry flue gas is the sensible heat in dry flue gas
calculated on a molal basis. The flue constituents are identified
based on fuel analysis and excess air calculations. The mean molal
specific heat and the change in temperature is used to calculate
the Ioss.

The input parameters are:


1. FueI analysis
2. Carbon in the ash
3. FIue gas exit temperature
4. Ambient air temperature
5. Higher heating value of the fuel
6. CO in the flue gas

The Loss due to Radiation is based on the ABMA standard radiation


loss chart. Constraints for this are based on boilers having at
least 5.0 million BTUrzhr continuous output.
PERFORMANCE MONITORING

T h e i np u t p a ra me te rs a re:
1. Unit load
2 . M a xi mu mco n ti n u o u s r ating of the unit.
Loss due t,o moisture in the fuel and loss due to hydrogen in the
fuel are calculated in two parts. The first is tfe t5ss due to
la t e n t h e at a n d th e se co n d- loss is due to sensible heat. T he
amount of moisture in the flue gas is based on the amount of water
and the amount of hydrogen in ttre fuel. The 1atent heat is
calculated as the factor io reduce t,he high heat of cornbustion to
the low heat of combust,ion. Like the se-nsible heat in dry f lue
gdsr ttte moisture sensible heat is calculated using the nearf molal
specific heat and the temperature change.
The input parameters are:
1. Moisture in the fuel
2. H yd ro g e n i n th e fu el
3. T e n p e ra tu re o f th e flue gas enter ing the air heater
4. Ambient air t,emperature
5. Hi g h e r h e a ti n g va l ue of the fuel
T h e L o s s d u e to co mb u sti b L e s in r efuse is based of the am ount of
BTU rost to the ash. T1pically, this is based on input,s by the
operator.

The input parameters are:


1. Ave ra g e ca rb o n i n the dr y r efuse ( ash pit and fly ash)
2, Percent of ash in the fuel
3. Higher heating value of the fuel
Lo s s d u e t o mo i stu re i n th e air is done on a m olal basis. T he
mo l e s o f wa te r i n th e a i r ar e calculated based on the fuel
a n a l y s i s , th e e xce ss a i r a n d t.he atmospher ic conditions. Once th e
a m o u n t o f m o i stu re i s kn o w n , a calculated molal specific heat and
t h e a m o u n t o f te mp e ra tu re change ar e used to calcir late the l- oss .

The input parameters are:


1. Fuel analysis
2. Higher heating value of the fuel
3. Oxygen in the flue gas
4. CO in the flue gas
5. Carbon content in the ash
6. Flue gas exit temperature
7. Ambient air temperature
B. Relative hurnidity
9. Barometric pressure
PERFORMANCE MONITORING

Loss due to unburned Co in the flue gas is a straight calculation


-ttre
of wasted BTU's going up the stack. moles of cirbon convert,ed
to CO are determined and then the BTU/lb loss due to incomplet,e
combustion is used to determine the loss.

The input parameters are:


1. CO in the flue gas
2. Fuel analysis
3. Oxygen in the flue gas
4. Higher heat,ing value of the fuel
Unmeasured losses is Lhe manually input facLor which accounts for
the totalization of losses too smalt to calculate or for which
measurements are not available.
Steam Turbine performance

The steam turbine efficiency caLculaLion is based on the ASME


Performance Test Code for steam turbines (pTC 6 and 6a) using th-
Enthalpy
Ptoq Method. The turbine efficiency is defined aj the
ratio of Used Energ'y to t,hat of Available nneigy. The Avaitable
enerlDr is calculated using the rsentropic End i6int MeLhod. For
condensing-turbinefr the operator/enginler can apecify the exhaust
steamqua1ityortheprogramassumessaturated5team

To perform the Turbine Efficiency Calculations the following


parameters are required:
1. Turbine inlet steam pressure and temperature
2. Cold reheat steam pressure and tempeiature
3. Hot reheat steam piessure and temperature
4. Crossover steam pressure and temperature
5. Condenser steam pressure and temperature
6. Exhaust steam quality

Feedwater Heater performance

The feedwater heater performance calculations are determined from


Terminal Temperature Difference and Drain cooLer Approach
Temperature. Extraction flows to the heaters can be determ-i'ned by
energy balances.

The forrowing parameters are used to determine for the


feedwater heater calculat.ions.
1. Extraction steam pressures and temperatures
2. Heater inlet watei temperature
3. Heater outLet water temperature
4. Heater drain temperature
5. Feedwater flow and pressure
PERFORMANCE
MONITORING

Condenser performance

Condenser efficiency and reLative thermaL transmit,tance are


provided by the condenser calculations. The calculations are based
9I_!!" 4!ME performance Test Code for Steam Condensing Apparatus
(ASME PTc L2.2) and Standards for Steam Surface Conden6eri-by the
Heat Exchange Institute.

Thermal transmittance is the amount of heat transferred per unit


of time per unit of surface area per degree of logarithiric mean
temperature difference, thus thermal transmittance is- a fundamental
index of the condenser's performance

The input parameters used to calculate the condenser


calculations are:
1. Condenser surface area
?. Temperature of steam entering the condenser
3. Cooling water inlet temperature
4. Cooling water exit temperature
5. Cooling water flow

If the steam temperature is not known, saturation temperature would


be used.

If the cooling water flow is not known, it can be estimaLed from


the total BTU dumped to the condenser.

Turbine Cycle Net Heat Rate is defined ad the ratio of total heat
charged to the turbine cycle to the Net unit ceneration.

Gross Turbine Cycle Heat Rate is defined as the ratio of total heat
charged to the turbine cycle to the Gross unit Generation.
Turbine Cycle Reference Heat Rate is calcul-ated from the turbine-

Overall Effectiveness
Overall effectivenessof the HRSG is definedas the ratio of the enthalpy
drop of the gas to the maximumenthalpydrop of the gas which is theoreti-
cally possible.The maximumenthalpydrop would occurwhen the gas and
water temperatures would coincideat one or more points(pinchpoints).

The definitionof the overalleffectivenessis similarto that of the individual


section, The problemwith the overalleffectivenessis that the locationof the
pinch is generallynot knownin advance.

Maximumtheoreticallypossibletemperatureand enthalpydrop shall be


determinedby comparinggas temperaturedrop linesdrawnto all possible
pinch locations.The pointthat allowsthe leastdrop in gas temperatureis
the criticalpointdefiningthe actualoutputof the unit. This is the pinch point
location that shall be used to determinethe overalleffectivenessof the
HRSG.

not be possible. Correctionto guaranteeconditionsshall be made using

E. Condenser PerformanceCalculations

The condenserperformanceis evaluatedby comparingthe measured


condenserpressureto a calculatedexpectedcondenserpressure. The
expectedcondenserpressureis determinedfrom the condensercooling
water inlet temperatureand the condenserload using the heat transfer
c a l cu l a ti o np ro ce d u re si n ANSI/ASM EPTC 12.2 - 1983. Condenser
performanceis degraded by increasedfouling on the water side of the
condensercoolingwatertubesand/orby reductionin the coolingwater flow.
The expectedcoolingwater outlettemperatureis calculatedbasedon the
expected circulatingwater flow. Comparisonof the expectedand actual
cooling water outlet temperaturewill help to identify if the condenser
pressuredeviationis due to foulingor a coolingwaterflow change.

The primaryperformancemeasuresfor the boileras defined by the ASME


PTC 4.1 - 1993 SteamGeneratingUnitsare boilerfuelefficiency. ASME
PTC 4.1 enumeratesa number of lossesthat are oifficultto measureor
determine.Theselossesmust be assignedvalueson a best estimatebasis
or be consideredinsignificant.

The boilerefficiencywill not be calculatedat low loads,while sootblowingor


duringsignificantload changes.

Pn = Generatorpower output

The main, and reheat steam flows are determinedfrom the measured
feedwater flow by adding attemperatorflows, and subtractingboiler
blowdown,design turbine leakagesand the extractionflow to the top HP
heater. The extractionflow is determinedby solvinga mass and energy
balancearoundthe top HP heater. This ANSI/ASMEPTC 6.1 methodonly
requireshigh accuracyinstrumentation for unit generation,the HP and lP
turbine,the top HP heaterand the condenser. This methodwas developed
by the ASME primarilyto monitorchanges in the overall turbine cycle
performance.

Note:The calculatedheat rate is validfor the presentoperaiingconditions.
