This section describes the overall operating capability of the Plant, rather than those of various

systems, equipments and associated auxiliaries in the scope of the Contractor which are specified
elsewhere in the specification. The capabilities described in this section are over-riding performance
requirements to which all the different systems, equipments and associated auxiliaries in the scope of the
Contractor would have to be synchronised and integrated to operate; together with adequate control,
protection and inter-locks.

It is the responsibility of the Contractor to incorporate all necessary design and safety margins,
redundancies and further quality assurance methods like extended / stringent testing methodologies and
inspection to satisfy the operational and performance requirements of the Plant for the complete envelope of
all operating regimes which would include upset conditions apart from normally envisaged design conditions.

The following content does not envisage a CHP (Combined Heating and Power) Plant for which
steam would be extracted from and returned to main feed heating and regenerative cycle. Appropriate
design provisions and requirements would be incorporated at later date.

The overall operating capabilities are specified as follows:

1. The Plant should be capable of operating continuously between ambient operating

temperatures of -10 oC and +30 oC, and capable of being subjected to starts and stops within
the number of prescribed values recommended for cold, warm and hot starts per year.

2. The turbine hall will normally be unmanned and the turbine generator, feed heating and
auxiliary plant shall operate automatically under the control of its dedicated control system;
with essential plant control functions (e.g. turbine shutdown) available from the Central
Control Room (CCR). All system process parameters and alarms shall be transmitted to the
Plant supervisory and control system for monitoring in the CCR. The start-up of the turbine
will be achieved through control functions affected from the CCR. Operator attendance at
the turbine generator will not normally be required. Loading and synchronising activities will
be controlled from the CCR.

3. The turbine and the generator should be connected by a reduction gear box comprising of
flexible high speed and rigid low speed couplings. The rotating shaft system shall be capable
of accepting the maximum fault torque conditions that exist under short circuit and mal-
synchronising conditions without damage to the turbine, gearbox and generator.

4. The turbine generator is not required to operate in “Island Mode”. A suitable automatic
turbine shutdown procedure shall be initiated to prevent any possibility of critical over-speed
on the turbine when the generator breaker is opened.

5. In order to maximise electrical export from the plant, the planned maintenance periods for
the Power Island should occur during the annual shutdown planned for the boiler and
combustor.

6. The Plant should be capable of continuous operation with variation in main steam inlet
parameters as per IEC-45.

7. The Plant should incorporate a Totally Enclosed Water Air Cooled Generator (TEWAC)
without any over-pressurisation requirement, incorporating suitable anti-freeze component.

8. The Plant should incorporate a tandem compound non-reheat axial exhaust single cylinder
steam turbine with at least five uncontrolled steam extractions to at least 1 direct contact
feed water heater and other indirect contact feed water heaters, with an air cooled steam
condenser equipped with electrically operated fans coupled with variable frequency drives.

9. The surface noise level at 1 meter from any Plant item during all non-emergency operational
states should not exceed 83 dB LAeq, The area averaged noise level within Plant buildings
during all non-emergency operational states should not exceed 80 dB LAeq.

10. The Plant should be designed with seismic design criteria.

 maximum shaft vibrations will not exceed the limiting curve “A”-good vibration
characteristics- according to ISO 7919-3.

12. Coupled critical speeds shall lie outside the range 85-120% of the nominal speed.

13. The Plant shall be designed, at minimum, to satisfy the noise and vibration requirements of
the European Directives 2003/10/EC (noise) and 2002/44/EC (vibration) on the minimum
health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risks arising from
physical agents (noise and vibration) without the need for personnel protection (e.g. ear
defenders) or other special measures.

14. Turbine Control System: Instrumentation shall be provided which gives the possibility to
monitor, control and operate the turbine generator from the local panel as well from the CCR.
An electronic turbine governor system capable of providing safe operation of the turbine shall
be employed. The governor system shall ensure stable operation of the turbine generator at
all load points, and shall include the following modes of operation:

 manufacturer’s recommendations.

The protection signals shall operate on all turbine emergency stop valves, on the bleed and

conditions corresponding to the best efficiency point with cycle isolation and no external
cycle make-up. No correction for degradation shall be allowed.
