 Ø  Coal handling system

The coal handling system is the most important functionary part thermal power plant. The
Steps involved in the coal handling system are as follows:
   ·         Coal delivery
   ·         Unloading
   ·         Preliminary coal preparation
   ·         Outdoor storage
   ·         Covered storage
   ·         In plant handling
   ·         Dust control system
   ·         Palavering
   ·         Feeding the coal into furnace
 Ø  Steam generation system
Coal handling plant sends the prepared coal to steam generation system. In this system, coal is burnt and heat thus produced is transferred to water. The unit in which water is converted into superheated steam. This section is comprised of various units like furnace, boiler drum and tubes, super heater coils, reheater coils and heat reclaiming device. Different types of boilers are available which can be used. But now day’s high pressure boilers are being used in the thermal power section. The maximum pressure in these boilers is about 126 kg/cm2.

 Ø  Power generation system
The steam produced in the boiler is sent to the steam turbine where thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy. The steam turbine consists of a rotor having a series of blades on its circumference. The blades are made to withstand the action of steam and the centrifugal force. The rotor is rotated by the steam striking against the blades. As the steam expands in nozzle, it gains the high velocity. This energy is converted into mechanical energy. As the steam turbine is directly coupled to the dynamo and convert the mechanical energy into electrical energy.

 Ø  Feed water system
Raw water for power station is taken from western Yamuna Canal (WYC) by a channel. This water is lifted by water pumps and fed to clarifiers to remove the turbidity in water. The clear water is stored in clear wells from where it is to be sending to water treatment plant, cooling water system and service water system the water on treatment plant is filter and demineralised.
The condensate from the condenser is used as feed water to the boiler. Some water is lost throughout the cycle from blow down leaks etc. The loss varies from 1 to 3 % during normal operation and 5 % during start up period.
A separate water softening plant is required to supply this from a river as well as a lake. The water supplied by water softening plant is of very high quality (10-50) PPB silica and less than 500 ppb total solid content).The impurities cause corrosion and erosion of boiler tubes, turbine blade and blockage in the boiler tubes resulting tube failure due to overheating.

 Ø  Ash handling system
In thermal power plant a large quantity of ash is produced. The quantity of ash produced is about 10-20% of total coal burnt. The as his first quenched and then disposed with help of ash handling system.

 Ø  Draught system
The purpose of the drought system is to supply require quantity of air for combustion and removed the burnt products from the system for flowing of gases through different units, pressure difference is essential. The difference of Pressure required to maintain constant flow of air and to discharge the gases through the chimney to atmosphere is known as drought.
Drought can be produced naturally by chimney but it is not sufficient and mechanical drought systems of induced and forced types are generally used. The ID (induced drought) fans and FD (forced draught) are used for this purpose.

 Ø  Steam condenser system

The steam condenser system basically improves the efficiency of the thermal power plant by decreasing the exhausts the pressure of the stream below atmospheric pressure .The water obtained from condensers is used in boilers again. The condenser system place vital role in thermal power plant. Therfore, the reliability analysis of steam condenser system is of great use. The results of this analysis can be used while designing new plants.

    -This innovative concept consists of hull and core where are held all 8 bteps of the work-flow which make the concept functional. The core has several gears and turbines which are responsible for these 8 steps (5 of them are dedicated to the turbo stages). The first step is fuel compression, followed by 2 cold turbo levels. The fourth step is where the fuel starts burning – combustion stage, which creates thrust for the next, 5th step – thrust step, which provides power to the planetary gears and turbines and moves the system. This step is followed by two hot turbo steps and the circle is enclosed by the final 8th step – bigger turbine. All this motion in a retrodynamic circumstance effect, wich is plus higher RPM speed by self motion. The Reaction at front of the action.

APRON MECHANISM IN LATHE

APRON MECHANISM IN LATHE Apron Mechanism: Apron is attached to the carriage and hangs over the front side of the lathe bed. It is useful in providing power and hand feed to both carriage and cross-slide. It is also used to provide power feed to the carriage during thread cutting through two half nuts. The construction of apron is shown in Fig. Fig - Apron Mechanism Construction Power is transmitted from the spindle to the lead screw and feed rod through the spindle gear and tumbler gear arrangement. A worm is mounted on the feed rod by a sliding key. The worm meshes with a worm gear on whose axis another gear G1 is attached. Gear G1 is attached to a small gear G2 by a bracket as shown in the diagram. Gear G4 is positioned to be in mesh with the rack gear always. Another gear G3 is mounted on the same axis of gear G4. The carriage hand wheel meant for longitudinal feed is attached to the gear G5 on the same axis. The gears G3 and G5 are always in mesh. The gear G...

Boiler Mounting - Water Level Indicator

WATER LEVEL INDICATOR Function:   It is indicates the water level inside the boiler to an observer. Working:  The water of the boiler comes into the glass tube through the lower tube and the steam through the upper tube. The water then stands in the glass tube at the same level as in the boiler. Two cocks are used to control the passage of between the boiler and the glass tube while the third cock is in used to discharge some of the water from inside the boiler to see whether the gauge is in proper order or not. The glass tube is protected by means of a cover, made of specially toughened glass, which will prevent any accident that may happen due to breaking of glass tube. It is used for ordinary boilers.
