Mill PEA — INTRODUCTION XRP1003 1.0 INTRODUCTION Bow! mills are employed to pulverize the pre-crushed raw coal to the required fineness before it is admitted into the boiler furnace for combustion. The operating characteristics of bow! mills make it the best mill available for the direct firing system of the coal. The best features of all the pulverisers have been incorporated in the design of the bow mill The mill output can be easily varied, as per the turndown ratio from its minimum to maximum load and it will operate for long periods without mechanical problems or stoppages for cleaning, oiling or adjusting, Crushed raw coal at @ controlled rate is fed into the revolving bowl of the Bowl Mill Centrifugal force feeds the coal uniformly over the replaceable grinding ring where independently spun rolls exert the required grinding pressure. The rolls do not touch the grinding ring even when the mill is empty, Therefore the Bow! Mill operates silently without the rumble that is characteristic of the mills in which there is metallic contact between the grinding elements. This mill is designated as XRP 1003 Bow Mill where X~3 Phase, 50 Hz Supply, R— Raymond (Inventor of the mil), P — Pressurized, 100 ~ Nominal dia. of the Bowl (inches) 3— Number of the Grinding Rolls. The mill works in a pressurized atmosphere as the primary air fan is placed in the system ahead of the mill and hence will be designated as XRP mill The instructions contained in this manual give an outline of the correct methods and procedures for installation. The contents in this manual have been compiled and checked by experts in this field. Every possible care has been taken to ensure the contents are accurate. It must be recognized that no amount of written instructions can replace intelligent thinking and reasoning on the part of the operating and maintenance staff BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRIGALS LIMITED 7 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION Bow!

Do not weld on high strength non-weldable components of planetary gear box like bevel pinion shaft, bevel gear wheel etc. BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED o 7) Bowl Mill OPERATION ar 3.3 10. Do not interchange bevel pinion shaft and bevel gear wheel. Both these are matched set. Itis recommended to replace them as a set. It is recommended to carry out maintenance on the gearbox intemals only in the presence of experienced fitters from BHEL or send the gearbox to BHEL works. 11. Do not interchange journal opening covers, even within the same mill, They are matched with respective journal opening frames of the separator body. PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION: Coal is fed to the center of the pulveriser onto a revolving bowl. Centrifugal force ‘causes the coal to travel towards the perimeter of the bowl. The coal passes between the bull ring and the grinding rolls, which impart the pressure necessary for ‘grinding. The partially ground coal moves outward and over the edge of the bow. Heated air enters the mill side housing below the bow! and is directed upward around the bow! outside diameter and separator body annulus, by the rotating vanes. It continues upward and into the deflector openings in the classifier at the top of the inner cone, then out through the venturi and multiple port outlet assembly. AS the air passes upward around the bow, it picks up the partially pulverized coal; particles are carried up through the deflector openings of the classifier. The deflector blades in the openings cause the coal - air mixture to spin within the inner cone. The angle of the blades determines the velocity of the spin and the resulting fineness of the finished product. Coarser pulverised coal particles are returned through the inside of the inner cone to the bow for further grinding. Coal that is pulverised to the desired fineness leaves the pulveriser and enters the fuel piping system, Any tramp iron or dense and difficult to grind foreign material in the coal feed is, carried over the top of the bowl, where it drops through the air stream and rotating vanes to the mill bottom. Pivoted scrapers attached, to the lower skirt, sweep the {ramp iron or other material to the tramp iron discharge opening. BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 70 7) Bowl Mill OPERATION ar The tramp iron spout is fitted with a valve. Under normal operation this valve remains open and material is discharged into a sealed pyrite hopper. The valve is closed only while the hopper is being emptied. DO NOT close the valve on the tramp iron spout to prevent the discharge of rejects, If the valve is closed for an extended period, material normally discharged will be retained in the mill side housing and be ground by the scrapers, scraper guards and holders. This produces excessive wear on these parts and creates a potential fire hazard. If coal is discharged into the pyrite hopper, this indicates overfeeding, too litle Grinding pressure on the rolls, too low an air flow or too low a pulveriser outlet temperature. Excessively wor pulveriser parts or improper adjustment can also cause coal to be discharged. Excessive spillage indicates that a pulveriser is not functioning properly and steps should be taken as soon as possible to correct the situation. ‘The pulveriser operates under positive pressure. A seal air system provides clean air to a chamber (Labyrinth seal) surrounding the bow! hub to prevent hot air and coal dust from leaking to the atmosphere. Seal air is supplied to each journal trunnion shaft to prevent coal dust from entering the journal bearings. Seal air is also supplied to each spring assembly to keep it free from coal dust. For good pulveriser performance, the temperature of the coalair mixture leaving the classifier should be maintained as high as possible within the safe temperature limit for that particular coal. Too high an outlet temperature may lead to a pulveriser fire, ‘The safe temperature limit for a given coal depends on the percentage of volatile ‘matter, moisture and pyrites either individually or a combination of them in the coal. BHEL pulveriser systems are designed to perform effectively with coals with a wide range of moisture content and grindabilty. In order to obtain rated capacity from the pulveriser, i is necessary to have sufficient hot air entering the pulveriser to dry the BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 7 ri Bowl Mill OPERATION ar coal, sufficient pressure on the rolls to pulverise it and proper setting of the classifier deflector vanes to obtain fineness reasonably close to that for which the pulveriser is designed. Operating experience will help determine the pulveriser’s optimum conditions for a given coal, CAUTION PULVERISER OUTLET TEMPERATURE IN EXCESS OF 95° C COULD RESULT IN PULVERISER FIRES, REFER TO “PULVERISER FIRES", THE CONTROL SYSTEM SHOULD AUTOMATICALLY CLOSE THE HOT AIR SHUTOFF GATE IF THE PULVERISER OUTLET TEMPERATURE RISES TO 3.4 OPERATING PARAMETERS: To meet the safe and optimized mill operating criteria, the following operating parameters must be established for the given coal '), MILL AIR FLOW: Mil should be operated at the design air flow at all loads. Operating at higher air flow will cause excess wear and upset the performance of classifier etc. If mill is operated at lower air flow it may result in coal rejects, low bowl differential pressure, excess fineness, coal settlement etc. The air flow is controlled by the simultaneous operations of hot and cold air dampers. ii). MILL OUTLET TEMPERATURE: For good pulveriser performance, the temperature of coal air mixture leaving the classifier should be maintained as high as possible within the safe temperature limit for the coal being ground. Too high an outlet temperature may lead to a pulveriser fire. When grinding coal with a volatile content below 30% on “as received” basis, the mill outlet temperature of 75° C to 80° C is recommended. When grinding coal with higher volatile content, the mill outlet temperature should be maintained between 55° C and 65° C. If a high volatile coal has high sulphur content then also the maximum safe operating temperature may be as low as 60°C. BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED @ ri Bowl Mill OPERATION ar Environmental conditions (rainy seasons) may cause changes that result in lower Pulveriser outlet temperature. A pulveriser may be operated at a temperature below 65° C provided there is no loss in capacity, coal spillage, high bow! differential pressure, or high motor current. The outlet temperature below 60° C may not dry the coal sufficiently. Mill outlet temperature is controlled by simultaneous operation of cold and hot air dampers. il, PULVERISED FUEL FINENESS: The degree of pulverised coal fineness required depends upon the volatile content of coal and the furnace size. This is specified for each unit. Operating the mills at higher fineness increases the wear rate and reduces capacity of the mill. The fineness can be controlled by operating the classifier vanes, after carrying out an optimized spring compression setting, air flow setting and ring roll setting for the mill iv), MILL CAPACITY: The capacity of mill depends on the hard groove grindabilty index, the moisture content of coal and the pulverised fuel fineness. TECHNICAL POINT IF LOW CALORIFIC VALUE OF COAL IS USED, THE AMOUNT OF COAL REQUIRED BY THE STEAM GENERATOR IS MORE, THUS MILL CAPACITY IN TERMS OF HEAT INPUT. TO STEAM GENERATOR DECREASES, The indications of mill overloading are the following, out of which one or more indication may be present during mill overloaded condition: a) High mill motor current. b) High bow! differential pressure. cc) Lowmill outlet temperature. d) Mill rejects having large amount of coal. 5 START - UP: Before the pulveriser motor circuit is energized and the pulveriser is run under power for taking up coal firing. The following items must be checked for completion/readiness. BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 3 ri Bowl Mill OPERATION ar Pre —Start up checks: a) Pulveriser / motor coupling alignment. b) Roll - ring clearance. ©) Lubrication system. d) Deflector blades setting, ©) Seal air supply adequacy. f) - MDVs and Tramp iron spout valve is in open position. 2. Check the oil level in the journals and in the lube oil tank and gear housing. Make ‘sure the shut off valves in the lubrication system are open both on oil side and cooling water side, 3. Open all coal line valves and/ or gates and the cold air shut off gate. 4. Start the pulveriser lubrication system. Check that adequate oil Pressure, ‘Temperature and Flow is established to the bearings and gears in gear box with the help of the instrumentation provided in the lube oil lines. TECHNICAL POINT ‘THE LUBE OIL PUMP MUST BE RUNNING AT LEAST FOR 15 MINUTES BEFORE GIVING ‘A PULVERISER START PERMISSIVE. AFTER THE PULVERISER 1S STARTED, THE OIL, TEMPERATURE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED BETWEEN 30° CTO 50°C. 5. Open the hot air shut off gate. The control system should adjust the hot and cold air control dampers to give the proper air flow and allow the pulveriser to warm up to a temperature range of 60° C to 70° C and exact temperature set point to be established later, depending upon operating experience with the given coal. ©. Establish the required ignition energy. Then start the feeder with a fairly high feed rate. When the pulveriser begins to grind, (this is indicated by an increase in the motor amperes.) reduce the feed rate to the desired setting (minimum feed rate on the first pulveriser). Increase the feed rate as per unit load demand. The BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 4 ri Bowl Mill OPERATION ar second and successive mills should be placed in service when the loading on the ‘operating pulveriser(s) reaches 80%. 3.6 NORMAL SHUT DOWN: If possible coo! the mill before shutting it down, ji) Close the mill hot air regulator damper and hot air shut off gate and cold air damper should be opened to maintain 100 percent air flow. ii) Continue feeding coal til the mill outlet temperature reaches 50° C. Then stop the feeder. iil) Run the mill for another few minutes till it becomes empty and then shut down. iv) Cold air damper should be throttled to approximately 5° open after the mill stops. A minimum quantity of cold air flow must be maintained through the mill at all times. NOTE:- Chances of mil fire would be reduced if the above steps are followed, v) When the pulveriser is shut down for any length of time in cold weather, it Is advisable to drain the water from the lube oil coolers. If for any reason ice has formed in the tubes, a careful examination should be made before Starting-up to make sure that the tubes have not ruptured allowing cooling water to contaminate the oil, 3,7 EMERGENCY SHUT DOWN: On loss of furnace ignition or another condition that requires an automatic or manual emergency fuel trip, the mill motor should be tripped immediately. ‘Stopping the motor should trip the feeder; close the hot air shut off gate and initiate a minimum inert sequence, if required, provided the mills are equipped with an inerting system. BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED % 7) Bowl Mill OPERATION ar 3.8 ‘An emergency trip may subject residual fuel in the mills to cause spontaneous combustion. The unit should be re-fired within a reasonable time (45 minutes) to lear the mills. If this cannot be done, the mill should be cooled and manually cleared (see CAUTION). ‘As a minimum precaution, the mill should be isolated, and all inspection doors removed / opened to prevent volatile gases from mill entering the furnace. Nor! an inerting system is installed, start the mill steam inerting system for ‘one minute immediately after shut down and again before opening the pulveriser inspection doors. The inerting steam line isolation valves must be properly closed before the mill man hole doors are opened. CAUTION A HOT MILL WILL DISTILL COMBUSTIBLE GASES, FROM RESIDUAL COAL. THEREFORE TAKE PRECAUTIONS WHEN OPENING THE MILL FOR LEANING. START UP AFTER EMERGENCY SHUT DOWN: After an emergency trip, the mills that were in service will be hot and contain a considerable amount of partially pulverised coal. The coal should be removed from the mills one by one quickly to avoid mill fires. The following procedure should be used. ) Purge the unit ii) Establish ignition energy in the boiler for the mill to be operated, iil) Check that the mill discharge valves are closed on all mills not in service, This will prevent hot furnace gases, which will be at higher than normal pressure upon initial ignition of the coal, from surging down the fuel piping into the idle pulverisers. BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 76 Bow! Mil OPERATION aed 39 iv) Open mill discharge valve on the mill to be cleared, v) Hot air shut off gate should remain CLOSED. Open cold air damper and establish 100% air flow through the mill to transport the coal. v) Start the mill and leave it ‘ON’ for several minutes to remove all coal. If mill is to be kept in service start the feeder before mill is empty. Then open the hot air shut off gate and modulate hot air damper to bring the mill to normal operating temperature. vil) Repeat (ji) to (vi) above for all mills containing coal. When mills have been ‘emptied and/ or placed back in service, the discharge valves of remaining idle mills should be opened to allow the required minimum cold air flow through them, MILL FIRES: Causes: ‘The usual causes of pulveriser fires are: i) ii) Excessive Mill Outlet Temperatures: Do not permit the mill outlet temperature to exceed 95° C regardless of the material being pulverised. Foreign Material such as Paper, Bags, Straw, Wood and Excelsior collection in the inner Cone and other points in the Mill ‘These materials do not pulverise readily and therefore should be kept out of the raw fuel supply. When they get into the system, they collect and may catch fire. Each time the mill is opened for any reason, remove any such debris from air inlet, inner cone, bowl or other areas. Excessive Accumulations of Pyrites or Coal on the Mill Bottom or in the Air inlet to the Mi BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 7 Bow! Mil OPERATION aed iv) wy ‘The valve on the tramp iron discharge spout should normally be open to allow the free discharge of foreign materials into the Pyrites collection system. The valve may be closed momentarily for the removal of pyrites from the collecting hopper. Accumulation of debris in the air inlet should be removed whenever the mill is open for inspection. Scraper and guard assemblies clearances with mill side liner insulation cover plate shall be re- set periodically or replaced. Excessive Accumulations of Coal Areas above the Bowl: This condition is usually brought about by lack of maintenance. Worn liners may allow coal to accumulate in an area faster than the normal air flow will remove it or to reach areas where it cannot be removed by the normal air flow. Coal can also be trapped by foreign material bridging a section of the mill through or over which the coal would normally move. Improper or Unusual Operation: ‘An accumulation of coal or flammable foreign material is a hazard under normal operating circumstances, but in most cases this alone does not cause a fire or puff. Usually some additional improper operating conditions ‘must initiate the trouble, For instance, if a mill is operated with low air flow, higher mill inlet temperatures are necessary to maintain the set outlet temperatures. The air flow may be so low that additional coal settles out of the air stream. This condition can result in more heat, less coal movement and a potential for fire. Another example would be failure to close the hot air gate when there is reason to believe an operating condition may have allowed a fire to start. ‘Such a condition could be a sluggish damper drive mechanism or a BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 8 ri Bowl Mill OPERATION ar sluggish damper control system, coupled with a substantial and rapid change in coal moisture. ‘An example of unusual operation would be running coal through a mill from ‘a bunker that is known to be on fire, Of course extreme care must be taken while doing this. Everything possible must be done to make feeding continuous at a moderate to heavy rate. INDICATIONS: The two most common indications of a fire in a milling system are: a) b) Aniigh or rapidly increasing mill outlet temperature without other cause.

When these come under the roller, the roller lifts up allowing these to pass under. These are further carried over the edge of the bow! and drop through the mill side air inlet housing. Then, scrapped by scrappers through tramp iron spout to pyrite hopper, from where they are periodically removed. Any ‘material having a bulk density above 1.7 tons/ m* should be rejected. (For coal bulk density is 1.2 TO 1.6 tm’) However sometimes the raw coal is also rejected. This could happen due to: 1) Over loading of mill. li) Improper operation and adjustments. iii) Worn out parts. i) Over loading of Mill can be due to: a) Mill capacity reduction due to Low grindability index of raw coal. High fineness. High moisture. b) Physical overloading of mill due to feeder problems. (Refer feeder supplier's manual) ii) Improper Operation and Adjustments: a) Lower air flow - Operate at design air flow. b) Low mill outlet temperature - Modulate hot and cold air dampers to improve mill outlet temperature.

The Pulveriser lube oil system and piping is constructed so that oil can be circulated to the planetary gear and its bearings at the required location and flow back to the lube oil tank while the mill is in operation. The journal assembly is filled with oll and internal circulation takes place as the roller assembly rotates around its axis. Recommended lubricant specifications are given in the lubrication schedule in this chapter. 44 JOURNAL The Roller Journals are lubricated by means of a self-contained circulation system, The oll level in the shaft is maintained at a point just below the top of the seal and checked by using a dip stick. ‘The pumping action of the Roller Bearings circulates oil from the reservoir in the journal housing to the annular chamber between the Bearings, then into the shaft bore and through the oll return holes where the cycle is completed. The upper journal housing is provided with a triple lip type seal to prevent oil leakage. The joumals are kept clean by seal air brought through flexible tubing to holes provided in the Trunnion shaft and journal head for this purpose. (Refer figure- 11e). This inward moving air prevents dust from getting into the bearings. ‘The Roller Journals should be filled with the recommended oil (see Lubrication ‘Schedule-Table-1) through the fill connection at the top of the journal assembly). Brush or blow any dustidirt from the top of the Journal Shaft. Remove the cover and plugs from the journal opening cover and journal shaft. Check the oil level with a dip stick. Dip stick must touch the bottom. Fill the roller journal with oil to the level shown on the oil instruction plate attached to the journal opening cover land tighten the plug (refer Figure.12-e.) Pour the oil steadily to prevent air lock. ‘BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 2 Bow! Mil PULVERISER LUBE OIL SYSTEM xRP1003 42 During initial operation, the opening between the Journal Head Skirt and the upper journal housing should be inspected frequently (approximately weekly) for evidence of any leakage. If no leakage is observed (indicating that the oil seals have seated properly) a ‘normal interval of inspection, at least once in every three months andi or when the opportunity presents itself, can be initiated. When checked, if the oil shown signs of contamination, or a laboratory test indicates oil break down, it should be changed. To change oil, siphon out the old oil and add new oil to bring the oil back up to the level. Do this repeatedly until the oil is clear.

PULVERISER LUBE OIL SYSTEM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL CONFIGURATION ‘The oil supply system described below is used for oll cooling andor lubrication of a gear unit (see Vendor's “O&M Manual of Lube Oil System’) The oil supply system has been subjected to an exhaustive trial run. The oll supply is ensured by means of two pump assemblies, one of which acts as a standby pump. The pump draws the oil from the oil reservoir ofthe oil supply system. A filter is provided in the oil circuit for filtration of the circulating oil. The quantity of heat generated by losses, which is not dissipatable by convection, is dissipated by means of a cooler. Filtered and re-cooled oil is then passed back to the gear unit via a pressure line. The modules described above are mounted on the oil reservoir of the oil supply system. 4.3.4. FILLING WITH OIL The following provisions are recommendations based on long years of experience. They are given however without any responsibility on the part of the gear unit manufacturer. Responsibility for the oil grade lies with the manufacturer of the oil and the operator of the system has to ensure satisfactory state of the oil grade (see Operating Instructions” Gear unit'-section -5).. In all cases, before startup, the gear unit/ol supply system should be filed with oil (see Operating Instructions” Gear unit’ -section -6). After filing, the filler openings should be properly reclosed and sealed. Only oil in accordance with the specification should be used (see Operating Instructions" Gear unit section -5). Mixing cils of different manufacturers is NOT permissible. To remove residues of preservatives which can lead to oil foaming, the oil supply system alone and followed by system together with the gear unit should be flushed before startup (see Operating Instructions” Gear unit’ -section -5). ‘BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED a vm Bow! Mil Oi PULVERISER LUBE OIL SYSTEM XRP1003 ‘The oll must then be drained carefully from the oll supply system, the monitors and the oil compartment in the gear unit while it is hot. It may only be reused as flushing oil. If the flushing oll is to be used in another system, it should first be carefully purifiedifitered. Fresh oil in accordance with the specification should be used for startup (see Operating Instructions” Gear unit” -section -6). Fill the oil supply system tank with oll in accordance with the Operating Instructions" Lube Oil System’- section -6. Fill until the specified oil level is reached on the oil level gauge with the pump stationary (see Operating Instructions” Lube Oil System’- section -6). The pump should then be started. Before initial startup of the gear unit, the oil supply system must be run for at least 18 minutes to allow all oil compartments to fill up (see Operating Instructions” Gear unit” section -5). Stop the oil supply system again after wards and correct the oll level if necessary. All pipes, screw unions and flanges should be tightened, this applying particularly to suction lines (to prevent air being drawn into the system). Leaks should be resealed. 43.2. Oil pump Low-pressure oll pumps are only permissible for one direction of rotation. The direction of rotation of motors must agree with the direction of rotation arrow on the pump, 4.3.3, OIL COOLER ‘The water supply connections for the oll cooler should be established by the operator. ‘BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LIMITED 2B vm Bow!
