 NTPC, the largest power Company in India, was
setup in 1975 to accelerate power development in
the country.
 NTPC has installed capacity of 29,394 MW.
 It has 15 coal based power stations (23,395 MW) &
7 gas based power stations (3,955 MW)
 4 power stations in Joint Ventures (1,794 MW).
 The company has power generating facilities in all
major regions of the country.
 It plans to be a 75,000 MW company by 2017.
 Installed Capacity 2000 MW
 Location Sonebhadra, Uttar Pradesh
 Coal Source Jayant mine
 Water Source Rihand Reservoir
 Beneficiary States UttarPradesh,Uttranchal,
Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, Delhi and,
Himachal Pradesh, Chandigarh
 Unit Sizes Stage - I: 5x 200 MW
Stage -II: 2x 500 MW
 Prime mover coupled to
Alternator.
 Prime mover is driven by
energy obtained from
various sources such as
burning of fuel , pressure of
water, force of wind etc.

• A generating station which converts heat energy of coal
combustion into electrical energy is known as a steam power
station.
• Steam is produced in the boiler by utilizing the heat of coal
combustion. The steam is then expanded in the steam turbine and is
condensed in a condenser to be fed into the boiler again. The steam
turbine drives the alternator which converts mechanical energy of
the turbine into electrical energy.

Steam generating equipment includes:

• Boiler
• Superheater
• Economiser
• Air Pre-heater
 Boiler
A boiler is closed vessel in which water is converted into steam by utilising the
heat of coal combustion.
Steam boilers are broadly classified into following two types:
(a) Water tube boilers (b) Fire tube boilers

In a water tube boiler, water flows through the tubes and the hot gases of
combustion flow over these tubes. Water-tube boilers are used for high-pressure
boilers

 A device which removes last traces of moisture.
 It helps in reduction in requirement of steam
quantity.
 steam being dry reduces the mechanical resistance
of turbine.
 No corrosion at the turbine blades.
 They are such devices which recover the heat from
the flue gases on their way to chimney and raise the
temperature of feed water.
 Air Pre-heaters recover the heat from the flue gases
leaving the economiser and heat the incoming air
required for combustion
 Which condenses the steam at the exhaust of
turbine.
 It creates a very low pressure at the exhaust of
turbine, this helps in converting heat energy of
steam into mechanical energy in the prime mover.
 The condensed steam can be used as feed water to
the boiler.
A steam turbine is a mechanical device that extracts thermal
energy from pressurized steam, and converts it into
mechanical energy.
About 86% of all electric generation in the world is by use
of steam turbines.
It has almost completely replaced the reciprocating piston
steam engine.
Turbo generator
An turbo generator is coupled to a steam turbine and converts
mechanical energy of the turbine into electrical energy.
It may be hydrogen or air cooled. Rating of turbo generator
is normally 200MW & 500MW.
Transformers
(a) main step-transformers, which steps-up generated voltage
transmission of power
(b) station transformers, general purpose
(c) auxiliary transformers, which supply to individual unit-
auxiliaries.
Switchgear
which locates fault on the system and isolate faulty part from
healthy section.
It contains circuit breakers, relays, switches and other control
devices.
 Source of coal = Jayant Mines (Madhya pradesh)

 Location of source = Near Singrauli (Madhya pradesh)

 Distance of source from plant = 5kms

 Type of coal = D grade

 Coal requirement = 25,000 MT/Day
CHP follows three coal paths:
1.Path A-from track hopper to bunkers
2.Path B-from track hopper to stockyard.
3.Path C-from stockyard to bunker.

Path C-
 MILLS
 Generally thermal power stations use coal mills or
called coal firing system.
 Coal is reduced to fineness (-20mm).
 This fine powdered coal is called pulverized coal and is
carried forward to the burner by air through pipes.
 A natural result from the burning of fossil fuels, particularly
coal, is the emission of flyash. Ash is mineral matter present
in the fuel. For a pulverized coal unit, 60-80% of ash leaves
with the flue gas.
 Electrostatic precipitator has series of collecting &
emitting electrodes in a chamber.
 At the inlet of the chamber there are distributer
screen.
 Hooper and flushing system form a base of
chamber.
 Efficiency of ESP is approx. 99.8%
 SWITCHYARD
Switchyard is considered as the HEART of power
plant.
It is a junction , which carries the generated power
to its destination.
It is basically an open area where many different
kind of outdoor equipments are located. eg: busbars ,
transformers , circuit breakers etc.
Switch yards can be of 400KV, 132KV.
