Want to know about the various processes involved while starting a unit? Then you are at the right place because we have stuffed all the details involved in the start-up of a Sub-critical Tangential Firing unit. Below we have explained the start-up procedure types and various processes involved in case of tangential fired sub-critical boiler […]
When the Coal combustion takes place in the boiler, some part of the coal remains unburnt and that un-burnt particles are called the Ash, which is approximately 26% to 40% of the total coal undergoing combustion. Basically this is nothing but the residual part of the coal. This ash will be extracted out in the […]
As we have earlier seen the function and working of the boiler. In the boiler combustion takes place and coal’s chemical energy is converted into the heat energy. That heat energy is utilised to heat the water and the water is converted into steam which drive the turbine and ultimately energy is generated. In this […]
Modes of Coal Transportation Ship: Generally the coal that is imported from the foreign countries is coming by the Ship. The Coal from the foreign countries comes to a port and at the port the coal is stacked for storage. From the Port by the help of Trucks or Trains, the coal is transferred to […]
In order to generate electricity, we require mechanical torque and for the mechanical torque we require a fluid which will rotate the turbine, in thermal power plants to rotate the turbine we use steam as a medium. Steam is generated in boiler with the help of coal and water and after burning the coal, the […]
Boilers operating below the critical pressure are generally fitted with a steam drum, which is known as the heart of the boiler. In the steam drum, the main objective is to separate the steam from the steam-water mixture, which is coming through the riser tubes. Basically In the boiler, the feed-water comes through the feed-water […]
Efficiency Efficiency in turbine is defined as the ratio of the amount of work done by the turbine to the amount of heat transferred to the turbine by the working fluid and the efficiency at which the heat is transferred to the turbine rotating blades is dependent on the ratio of moving blade velocity and […]
