Abstract:
Thermodynamic cycle analyses of biomass gasifier-based electric power stations at two scales, nominally 5 and 20 MWe (net electric power output), were performed to assess process performance and viability. Various configurations (Rankine, simple, steam-injected gas turbine, and combined cycles) of a 5 MW stand-alone power station were modeled and a 20 MW biomass-based integrated gasifier combined-cycle cogeneration facility at a sugar factory was simulated. Information gained from these analyses will be applied to determine whether biomass gasification-based electricity production is practicable in Hawaii and other sugar producing locales.

Abstract:
The steam turbine is the principal mover in the field of electric power generation. It is very important and necessary to monitor and evaluate the running conditions and diagnose the faults of the steam turbine for the safe and normal running of the electric power plant. Fault diagnosis of the steam turbine is a complicated process and requires high level of the expertise. In order to significantly reduce the cost consumed in the fault diagnosis, increase the consistency of diagnosing decision-making, and better utilize the turbine’s management information resource, in this paper, an integrated Web-based expert system of the fault diagnosis for general purpose has been developed for the steam turbine of a power station. Moreover, it can be regarded as an advisory tool to those field engineers having much technical experience and as a training tool to less-experienced personnel who need guidance and advice. This paper describes a research project aiming to develop a web-based intelligent diagnostic system for the steam turbine, and discusses the process of the fault diagnosis and the issues involved in developing the system. The paper also includes several practical issues related to the architectures of the intelligent web-based applications. The system is built on a three-tier architecture, including the following components: knowledge base, inference engine, knowledge administration interface, user interface, knowledge administration, and integrated database. The diagnostic system employs heuristic rules to diagnose the steam turbine faults.

Abstract:
Not long prior to entering the 20th Century, the most popular sort of transport at this point was the horse. Be that as it may, as individuals’ wages expanded and developments progressed, some were starting to explore different ways regarding more up-to-date types of transport. Presently, gas, steam, and electrical power were all available, with each following strength watching out. Steam development was grounded as of now and was generally seen and trusted by individuals all in all. It had, in light of everything, showing its worth driving assembling plants, mines, get ready, and conveys – it had all the earmarks of being only a trademark development to collect more unobtrusive kinds of transport using steam engines. There was an issue – steam motors were too slow to warm up and especially during winters it was particularly very tough to start them and once started the person had to continuously supply water for its cooling. They likewise had a restricted reach and should have been continually taken care of with water. Electric vehicles, or EVs for short, work using an electric engine rather than an interior ignition motor, similar to gas-fueled vehicles. Much of the time, EVs utilize an enormous footing battery pack to control the engine. This battery pack is charged by being connected to an exceptionally planned charging station or outlet at the clients’ homes. As EVs run on power, they have no fumes and don’t contain parts like the fuel siphon, fuel line, carburetor, and gas tank, which are required in gas-controlled vehicles. But the evidence of the positives has gotten amazingly clear, there are also a couple of hindrances that every individual needs to consider before they choose to make an electric vehicle their next tremendous undertaking. The reasons being: – Recharge Points, The Initial Investment is Steep, Short Driving Range and Short Driving Speed, Not Suitable for Cities, Facing Shortage of Power. To overcome the challenges more and more research and development work has been carried out and most of the above-stated challenges have been resolved. Higher battery density for longer range, alternate Li-ion batteries to increase the efficiency and to reduce the initial cost, and powerful chargers for fast charging is going under continuous development. Li-ion batteries undergo performance degradation and cycle aging, and it needs to be identified as soon as possible, i.e., using a Recommended Architecture to improve the performance of an EV. Apart from these, EV offers easy and efficient testing and verification model.

Abstract:
Flow accelerated corrosion (FAC) is a major concern in the power industry as it causes thinning of the pipes by the dissolution of the passive oxide layer formed on the pipe surface. Present research deals with comparing the protection offered by the magnetite (Fe3O4) versus maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) phases thickness loss measurements. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) is used in distinguishing these two elusive phases of iron oxides. Representative pipes are collected from high pressure steam extraction line of the secondary cycle of unit 2 of Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station (CPSES). Environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is used for morphological analysis. FTIR and X-ray diffraction (XRD) are used for phase analysis. Morphological analysis showed the presence of porous oxide surfaces with octahedral crystals, scallops and "chimney" like vents. FTIR revealed the predominance of maghemite at the most of the pipe sections. Results of thickness measurements indicate severe thickness loss at the bend areas (extrados) of the pipes.

Abstract:
This study was designed to determine if impingement and entrainment by cooling water intake at the Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station have an adverse impact upon the Squaw Creek Reservoir fish population. The yearly impingement of fish was estimated to be 262,994 of 14 species. The threadfin shad (Dorosoma petenense) accounted for 96% of this total. Entrainment of eggs and larvae for a five month period was estimated to be 15,989,987 and 42,448,794 respectively. Two fish population studies were performed on Squaw Creek Reservoir to help assess impact. It was determined that the losses due to impingement and entrainment have no adverse impact upon the fish population of Squaw Creek Reservoir.

Full text
Abstract:
The presence of deposits leading to corrosion of the steam generator (SG) systems is a major contributor to operation and maintenance cost of pressurized water reactor (PWR) plants. Formation and transport of corrosion products formed due to the presence of impurities, metallic oxides and cations in the secondary side of the SG units result in formation of deposits. This research deals with the characterization of deposit samples collected from the two SG units (unit 1 and unit 2) at Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station (CPSES). X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) techniques have been used for studying the compositional and structural properties of iron oxides formed in the secondary side of unit 1 and unit 2. Magnetite (Fe3O4) was found to be predominant in samples from unit 1 and maghemite (g-Fe2O3) was found to be the dominant phase in case of unit 2. An attempt has been made to customize FTIR technique for analyzing different iron oxide phases present in the deposits of PWR-SG systems.

Abstract:
Energy saving in coal power plants is a popular topic in present days with the global energy crisis. Internal electricity demand or auxiliary power consumption is an energy portion related with equipment supportive to the main equipment, which is unavoidable but with a proper investigation, some amount of this energy can be saved either by introducing thermally efficient auxiliary equipment or improving efficiencies of available equipment. Out of the various auxiliary equipment, the driving motor of boiler feed pump is the largest power consumer of internal electricity demand in 3x300 MW sub-critical Lakvijaya Power Station in Sri Lanka. So it is obvious that prime movers of feed pumps could be contributed for a large percentage of the losses. So it was decided to find out how to minimize the losses related to Boiler Feed Pump (BFP) system using small steam turbine to drive the BFP. The widely used alternatives for the BFP drivers are condensing type and back pressure type steam turbines. Eleven (11) different configurations of Condensing type, back pressure type and also extraction back pressure type turbines were considered and software programs for each configuration were implemented using Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software. The considered configurations are different to each other by inlet steam thermodynamic parameters, steam flow rate, exhaust thermodynamic steam parameters and intermediate extraction parameters etc. Thermodynamic analysis ended up with interesting solutions while all the configurations are giving improved efficiencies than existing electrical motor driven mode. But some of them had not improved their net output and hence there were no gain in net generator power output although the efficiencies are higher. Out of other configurations with improved net output and efficiency, the case with back pressure turbine arranged parallel to the HP turbine had the highest net output gain with better improvement in efficiency without changing the input power to the boiler. Considering the CO2 , SOx and NOx emissions, it was cleared that power plant with suggested BFP modes will give more clean energy than existing power plant. Considering the partial loads behavior it was observed that power plant with Back pressure turbine, steam extracted from HP turbines inlet for prime movers of boiler feed pumps is more thermodynamically economical than existing power plant. Annual financial saving with BFP configurations with positive net output gain and zero boiler input gain were calculated and it will be in between 0.46 and 2.72 UDS million / Year.

Abstract:
The presence of deposits on the secondary side of pressurized water reactor (PWR) steam generator systems is one of the main contributors to the high maintenance costs of these generators. Formation and transport of corrosion products formed due to the presence of impurities, metals and metallic oxides in the secondary side of the steam generator units result in formation of deposits. This research deals with understanding the deposit formation and characterization of deposits by studying the samples collected from different units in secondary side system at Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station (CPSES). Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) have been used for studying the phases, morphologies and compositions of the iron oxides formed at Unit 1 and Unit 2 of secondary side of steamgenerator systems. Hematite and magnetite were found to be the dominant phases of iron oxides present in the units. Fe, Cr, O, Ni, Si, Cl and Cu were found in samples collected from both the units. A qualitative method was developed to differentiate iron oxides using laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) based on temporal response of iron oxides to a high power laser beam. A quantitative FTIR technique was developed to identify and quantify iron oxides present in the different components of the secondary side of the steam generator of CPSES. Amines are used in water treatment to control corrosion and fouling in pressurized water reactors. CPSES presently uses an amine combination of dimethylamine (DMA), hydrazine and morpholine to control the water chemistry. Along with the abovementioned amines, this study also focuses on corrosion inhibition mechanismsof a new amine DBU (1, 8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0] undec-7-ene). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and polarization curves were used to study the interaction mechanism between DBU solution and inconel alloys 600 and 690 at steamgenerator operating temperatures and pressures. Of all the amines used in this study (DMA, DBU, ETA, and morpholine), DMA was more effective at keeping the passive film formed on the alloy 600 surface from failing at both ambient and high temperatures. Morpholine was found result in higher corrosion resistance compared to the other amines in case of alloy 690.

Abstract:
In 2004, North Omaha Station Unit 1 (NOS 1) experienced multiple condenser vacuum upsets. At least one of them resulted in a unit trip. The upset conditions occurred over relatively short periods of time with no clear indication of the initiating mechanism. Overall, condenser vacuum was low. Various methods were employed to combat the vacuum issues and upset conditions. These included operating both sets of holding steam jet air ejectors (SJAEs) above 600 psig (50% above design), using the hogging SJAE during unit operation and, operating the condensate pumps in a recirculating mode. Air inleakage was a known problem on NOS 1. The air inleakage was no longer measurable since it exceeded the scale of the installed instrumentation (20 scfm). Besides air inleakage, tube fouling of the condenser tubes was also contributing to degraded condenser vacuum. NOS 1 had a history of fouling due to calcium carbonate plateout on the condenser tubes. During the January 2005 outage, major sources of air inleakage were identified and fixed. Leaking tubes in the SJAE intercondenser/aftercondenser were plugged. The condenser tubes were scraped to reduce fouling. Although condenser vacuum improved, problems persisted at low loads. Following a vacuum upset in June 2005, the hogging SJAE was placed into service. Helium testing in July 2005 indicated high air inleakage. The problems continued to persist and, in February 2006, the unit tripped on low condenser vacuum. At that time, the unit had been operating at about 58 Mwe. In order to maintain the unit on line at a reduced load of 40 Mwe, both the hogging SJAE and one set of first stage and second stage holding SJAEs had to be deployed. An attempt to remove the hogging SJAE from service was unsuccessful since it resulted in rapid decrease in air-removal capability of the holding SJAEs. This paper describes the methodology used to troubleshoot the condenser vacuum issues for NOS 1 and remedies proposed for proper performance and reliable operation.

Abstract:
Large natural gas fired combined cycle electric power plants, while being an increasingly efficient and cost effective technology, are traditionally large consumers of water resources, while also discharging cooling tower blowdown at a similar rate. Water use is mostly attributed to the heat rejection needs of the gas turbine generator, the steam turbine generator, and the steam cycle condenser. Cooling with air, i.e. dry cooling, instead of water can virtually eliminate the environmental impact associated with water usage. Commissioned in the fall of 2010 with this in mind, the Halton Hills Generating Station located in the Greater Toronto West Area, Ontario, Canada, is a nominally-rated 700 Megawatt combined cycle electric generating station that is 100 percent cooled using various air-cooled heat exchangers. The resulting water consumption and wastewater discharge of this power plant is significantly less than comparably sized electric generating plants that derive cooling from wet methods (i.e, evaporative cooling towers). To incorporate dry cooling into such a power plant, it is necessary to consider several factors that play important roles both during plant design as well as construction and commissioning of the plant equipment, including the dry cooling systems. From the beginning a power plant general arrangement and space must account for dry cooling’s increase plot area requirements; constraints therein may render air cooling an impossible solution. Second, air cooling dictates specific parameters of major and auxiliary equipment operation that must be understood and coordinated upon purchase of such equipment. Until recently traditional wet cooling has driven standard designs, which now, in light of dry cooling’s increase in use, must be re-evaluated in full prior to purchase. Lastly, the construction and commissioning of air-cooling plant equipment is a significant effort which demands good planning and execution.

Near the city of Dubai a gas turbine and desalination station is presently being commissioned and has already partly been taken over by the client. This project has been carried out within 34 months from the award of the order to the acceptance by the client by an international consortium. Upon its completion the plant will produce 60 million gallons of drinking water per day and will have an electric capacity of 457 MW. The paper presents the technical concept of steam generators of relatively big capacity and very low steam pressures for the production of saturated steam for two designs, i.e. an oil and gas fired self-supporting steam generator and a waste heat recovery boiler behind a gas turbine including a very powerful supplementary firing system.

As one unit of plants, these power plants not only will be among the most powerful (in output) in the world, but will also offer the following features: 1) The main equipment of these plants, a gas turbine, will be a GE-Hitachi Model F7FA, the state-of-the-art 60 Hz model, for large equipment capacity and high efficiency. The heat recovery steam generator of each plant will use serrated fin tubes for high efficiency and compactness. 2) Plant efficiency will be at least 48.5% by means of optimizing the combined-cycle system and using the single-shaft triple-pressure reheat cycle. 3) As middle-load thermal plants, these plants are designed to use the advantages of a single-shaft combined cycle, thus offering operational convenience. 4) For global environmental preservation, which is nowadays an important concern of the local community, these plants are designed to reduce NOx emissions, warm discharge water, and noise. 5) To save labor for operation, and to improve its man-machine interface, these plant will utilize a large screen and CRT operation. Selection of these units and systems has entailed various feasibility studies and simulations for optimization, as well as new developments and reliability verifications. This paper takes the example of plant No. 3 to describe how the method of system selection and to present the design outline.

Abstract:
In 1978, the Japanese government started a national project for energy conservation called the Moonlight Project. The Engineering Research Association for Advanced Gas Turbines was selected to research and develop an advanced gas turbine for this project. The development stages were planned as follows: First, the development of a reheat gas turbine for a pilot plant (AGTJ-100A), and second, a prototype plant (AGTJ-100B). The AGTJ-100A has been undergoing performance tests since 1984 at the Sodegaura Power Station of the Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc. (TEPCO). The inlet gas temperature of the high pressure turbine (HPT) of the AGTJ-100A is 1573K, while that of the AGTJ-100B is 100K higher. Therefore, various advanced technologies have to be applied to the AGTJ-100B HPT. Ceramic coating on the HPT blades is the most desirable of these technologies. In this paper, the present situation of development, as well as future R & D plans for ceramic coating, is taken into consideration. Steam blade cooling is applied for the IGSC.

Abstract:
Most electrical generating utilities are striving to improve the efficiencies of their existing thermal electric generating stations, many of which are old. Exergy methods have been shown to provide meaningful insights that can assist in increasing the efficiency of conventional coal-to-electricity technologies. Here, exergy analysis is used to assess measures for improving the efficiencies of coal-fired electrical generating stations. This scope of the study is limited to minor practical improvements, which can be undertaken with limited effort and cost and are not overly complex. The plant considered is the coal-fired Nanticoke Generating Station (GS) in Ontario, Canada. The findings suggest that the results of exergy analyses should be used, along with other pertinent information, to guide efficiency improvement efforts for thermal generating stations. Also, efficiency improvement efforts should focus on plant components responsible for the largest exergy losses: the steam generator (where large losses occur from combustion heat transfer across large temperature differences), the turbines, the electrical generator and the transformer. Possible improvements in these areas should be assessed in conjunction with other criteria, and other components should be considered where economically beneficial improvements can be identified.

Abstract:
Abstract Grade 91 steels have been used in power generation for more than 20 years in high temperature, high pressure applications such as steam piping, headers and tubing because it provides superior creep and oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures. The mechanical properties of the material are dependent on the creation of a martensitic microstructure, however incorrect heat treatment during manufacture, installation or repair can result in a weak ferritic or semi-ferritic microstructure which can cause premature component failure. Currently, components with incorrect, weak microstructures are identified using hardness testing; a manual technique which is prone to error. This work details a series of tests carried out at the University of Manchester to assess the suitability of multi-parameter magnetic testing for the identification of incorrect microstructures. The tests stem from a workshop organized by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) where three sets of samples (eight pipe sections, eight tube sections and eight unidentified tube sections) with different microstructures were circulated world-wide. The results of the work show that the magnetic measurement techniques employed in these tests have the potential to provide a basis for the development of a portable NDE system for the identification of incorrect microstructures in Grade 91 plant components. The developed system would enable fast scanning of components with very little surface preparation along with digital data storage, improving on current manual hardness testing.
