Abstract:
The present paper describes the development of a monitoring, analysis and diagnosis system of power plant equipments based on strain measurements. The objective is to help companies increase availability and reduce maintenance costs. The aim is the integrity evaluation of a main steam and a hot reheat steam piping through inspection, strain monitoring and computational diagnosis. The benefits are, among others, reduction in the uncertainty of the remaining life prediction and reduction of work, through process automation and integration and real time monitoring (through the Internet) of the operational condition of the equipment. Thus, greater confidence and availability of the monitored generating unit is sought as well as cost reduction as a consequence of reduced frequency of unnecessary unit stops and greater speed in decision making due to more precise follow up of the operational condition of the target-equipment and of its remaining life.

Abstract:
Because the complexity and The diversity of the fault of large-scale power generation equipment system, it is difficult to carry out the analysis and evaluation for risk of equipment failure definitely and accurately. In the present analysis, most of them are complex function formulas, and not only is it difficult to understand, but also in poor operating in practice. At the same time, it is fail to be divided according to different faults of different devices In the issue of risk classification in the present study, so that the risk classification is not reasonable. This article is based on the research about equipment failure risk assessment, and by risk factors analysis to classify the risk of different failure for different devices. Maintenance mode selection is no longer based on the device but a combination of criticality analysis, and we can propose appropriate maintenance mode in the light of different fault of different equipment.

Abstract:
To reduce the moisture content of coal gas in combined cycle power plant, a new type dehydration equipment is introduced. The curved plate dehydration equipment is composed of many pieces of stainless plate which has some collection hooks at every corner. Meanwhile, a new method on measuring moisture in gas by using superfine fibreglass is introduced.The gas-water separation efficiency was calculated by the difference of moisture content before and after the curved plate dehydration equipment. The dehydration efficiency of curved plate in combined cycle power plant system was tested under different operating load, the results show that gas velocity and gas/liquid ratio have a great influence on the coal gas dehydration efficiency. If the washing water flow rate and pressure are changed, the efficiency will change at the same time. The moisture content is low when the spraying nozle works at a high water pressure. The operation water pressure and working voltage of electrostatic precipitator have been proposed by testing and analysis. It will have great advantage to the safe operation of turbine.

Abstract:
The delivery of medium and mega project has been a challenge for a number of decades, with attempts made to reduce the associated issues around engineering projects implementation. Project delivery before 1950 mainly relates to cost, time, and scope, with a lack of documentation pertaining to methods, as well as inadequate techniques to achieve a quality final product. The concept of Asset Operational Readiness (AOR) emanates in the 1950s from the military as means of providing the “developmental state of weapons systems”. The concept gained momentum as it was associated with “system safety” in the 1980s for decision-making. AOR can be defined as an establishment of a state or configuration which, after completion of the project, “places the right people in the right places at a right time working with the right hardware according to the right procedures and management controls”. The research work covered in this thesis, aims to propose a best-practice AOR framework for mega-projects in the power generation industry. A thorough Literature Review provides an overview of best practices on the AOR requirements for various industrial fields. The survey shows that AOR implementation follows the Project Life Cycle Management (PLCM) principles, from conceptual and pre-feasibility phases to commissioning and operation phases. In addition, the survey considers methodologies and techniques, which aids to enhance AOR framework development such as Root Cause Analysis (RCA) exercises. The study has provided an opportunity to develop an AOR theoretical framework refinement methodology, inclusive of RCA, AOR assessment tools, qualitative survey tool, and scoring systems. The AOR best practice framework and refinement methodology application to a real mega project case study, with historical data, enables a stage wise assessment of each component for individualized performance rating. This provides an identification of the areas that require refinement to have an improved AOR framework as outcome. The research outcome shows that there are implications for inadequate development and implementation of items in the proposed framework. The implications range from rework during manufacturing and construction, poor product quality delivery, poor performance post commissioning, and overall cost overruns. In addition, the study provides evidence that implementation of the AOR framework aids a project to realize its potential and yield positive results, which ultimately benefits an organization in terms of quality product delivery, cost reduction, and optimal Operations and Maintenance of the established asset.

Abstract:
Low pressure steam turbine last stage blade behaviour was investigated and researched over duration of this PhD project period. The aim of the research was to enhance the life of last stage blades by investigation and mitigation of the accumulative damage throughout the life of the turbine blade. The research was mainly broken down in to three main themes covering erosion, High Cycle Fatigue in industrial service and High Cycle Fatigue under laboratory conditions. The three themes were then further analysed during the research analysis for correlation and the extent of accumulative damage contribution during each stage. An accumulative damage model was constructed together with mathematical expressions for each stage of accumulative damage. The erosion damage model was constructed first and separately, followed by a separate damage model for crack initiation and propagation. After this a combined damage model was constructed to represent accumulative damage throughout the turbine blade lifecycle. After the damage mechanisms were researched and understood, a damage mitigation model was constructed consisting of primary damage mechanisms and secondary damage mechanisms. The primary damage mechanisms were then investigated further and a life extension technique developed to increase turbine blade life by reducing damage rates per turbine start, giving more starts life capability to the last stage blades. The secondary mitigation mechanisms was not covered in this project and regarded as future work under the low pressure turbine life extension possibilities. The research work also gave a spin off which allowed the author to conduct and finish a separate piece of work of designing the problem out through redesigning the turbine blade and condenser space in conjunction with leading experts from the industry.

Abstract:
In the event of a nuclear power plant accident, fission products could be released into the atmosphere potentially affecting the health of local citizens. In order to triage the possibly large number of people impacted, a detection device is needed that can acquire data quickly and that is sensitive to internal contamination. The portal monitor TPM-903B was investigated for use in the event of a fission product release. A list of fission products released from a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) was generated and separated into two groups--Group 1 (gamma- and beta-emitting fission products) and Group 2 (strictly beta-emitting fission products.) Group one fission products were used in the previously validated Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code (MCNP) model of the portal monitor. Two MIRD anthropomorphic phantom types were implemented in the MCNP model--the Adipose Male and Child phantoms. Dose and Risk Calculation software (DCAL) provided inhalation biokinetic data that were applied to the output of the MCNP modeling to determine the radionuclide concentrations in each organ as a function of time. For each phantom type, these data were used to determine the total body counts associated with each individual gamma-emitting fission product. Corresponding adult and child dose coefficients were implemented to determine the total body counts per 250 mSv. A weighted sum of all of the isotopes involved was performed. The ratio of dose associated with gamma-emitting fission products to the total of all fission products was determined based on corresponding dose coefficients and relative abundance. This ratio was used to project the total body counts corresponding to 250mSv for the entire fission product release inhalation--including all types of radiation. The developed procedure sheets will be used by first response personnel in the event of a fission product release.

Abstract:
Power conservation has become a high priority to South African industries due to recent environmental assessments and electricity price hikes. This research aims to demonstrate to Industry the many simple and cost effective ways to increase their industrial efficiency with simple modifications, as well as making them more aware of common assembly errors that significantly increase power consumption. This has been accomplished with the design, construction and testing of a test rig capable of producing the desired test results which simulate Industry usage. A test rig was required to test certain energy efficient equipment. This dissertation contains an explanation of the tests required, as well as how they were conducted. These test requirements directed the design outcomes of the test rig. Due to the variety of equipment to be tested, and the accuracy required, the test rig had to be fully adjustable. The design process is explained in this dissertation, along with relevant theory with regard to the testing procedures. The testing procedures were designed to be as accurate as possible. The setup equipment and procedure is briefly explained to ensure an understanding of the capabilities of the test rig. This dissertation contains the results obtained from testing a variety of couplings, belts and motors under different conditions. The results obtained show the difference between the efficiency of a standard motor and that of a high efficiency motor. The efficiency comparison of the Poly V TM, Poly Chain® and SPB V-belts showed very distinct advantages and disadvantages of each belt. The coupling testing was conducted under conditions of misalignment, and resulted in distinct differences in the efficiencies of each coupling at different degrees of misalignments. The couplings tested were the Fenaflex®, the Quick-Flex®, and the Fenagrid® coupling. All results obtained were analyzed and discussed in the relevant sections. The results obtained showed that the high efficiency motor is significantly more efficient than the standard motor at full load, although at low loading, the motor efficiencies were very similar. The coupling tests showed the negative effects misalignment has on the efficiency of the Quick-Flex® and Fenagrid® coupling as well as the capability of the Fenaflex® coupling to withstand the effects of large misalignments without significant efficiency loss. v The belt testing revealed the advantages and disadvantages of each type of belt used. This showed that although the synchronous belt did not lose efficiency with decreased tension, it became unstable, and was difficult to keep on the pulley if not aligned correctly. The V-belts can handle low tension well. Prolonged use of the belts can cause them to stretch, lowering the tension into a “danger zone” that will cause the belts to slip. This slip can damage the belt and pulley. At the lower tension of the V-belt, although the efficiency increases slightly, the vibration of the slack side of the belt is significant, and can be dangerous as the belt could jump off the pulley. The Poly V TM belt has some of the advantages of the V-belt, except that it is unable to maintain its friction at low tension, as the belt width prevents it from being wedged into the grooves like the V-belt. The fluid coupling tests showed that the shock loading on a high inertia system can be significantly reduced with the aid of a fluid coupling. The reduced shock loading can reduce energy consumption, and increase the life of electric motors and the equipment that they drive by preventing excessive overloading.

Abstract:
Economic assessment of power plants is one of the most critical steps before starting the project. Nowadays, investors and governments are looking for energy systems with lower investment costs leading to a shorter payback period. In the present research, economic and exergo-economic analysis of geothermal power plants has been conducted. This study has been divided into four different sections, (I) geothermal well drilling cost model generation, (II) power plant's equipment cost model generation, (III) entire geothermal power plants' economic model generation, and (IV) exergo-economic analysis of three geothermal case studies based on previous sections. QUE$TOR software is applied to calculate the costs of well drilling and power plant equipment, which is a robust and reliable cost estimator tool for well drilling and equipment costs, including a comprehensive cost database. Curve fitting and different optimization approaches have been applied in the models' generation process to reduce the deviations and calibration of obtained coefficients. The well drilling cost models are generated for different regions and countries based on the well number and depth. Also, the power plant's equipment cost models are proposed for the pump, heat exchangers, compressor, air-cooled condenser, and pressure vessel. Generated cost models are the most updated correlations based on the 2020 database. The generated equipment models are implemented in the entire power plants’ economic models generation. Considered models are the total cost rate, plant’s total cost, and power generation cost. The evaluated geothermal configurations are simple Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC), regenerative ORC, single flash, double flash, and flash-binary cycles. The proposed cost models in all sections are compared with other references, and it shows good compatibility with available literature. In the last part of this study, based on the generated well drilling and equipment cost models, exergy and exergo-economic assessment of three different geothermal case studies are performed. The first case is the Kizildere geothermal power plant (in Turkey), a triple-flash cycle coupled with an ORC unit. The second case is the Castelnuovo geothermal power cycle planned to construct in the Tuscany region, Italy. It is composed of an ORC cycle with a district heating system and total reinjection of non-condensable gases. And the last case is a improved scheme of Castelnuovo cycle with adding LiBr-H2O absorption chiller and Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) electrolyzer to generate more products.

Abstract:
Power plant machinery can be dynamically decoupled from the substructure by the effective use of helical steel springs and viscous dampers. Turbine foundations, coal mills, boiler feed pumps and other machine foundations benefit from this type of elastic support systems to mitigate the transmission of operational vibration. The application of these devices may also be used to protect against earthquakes and other catastrophic events, i.e. airplane crash, of particular importance in nuclear facilities. This article illustrates basic principles of elastic support systems and applications on power plant equipment and buildings in medium and high seismic areas. Spring-damper combinations with special stiffness properties are used to reduce seismic acceleration levels of turbine components and other safety or non-safety related structures. For turbine buildings, the integration of the turbine substructure into the machine building can further reduce stress levels in all structural members. The application of this seismic protection strategy for a spent fuel storage tank in a high seismic area is also discussed. Safety in nuclear facilities is of particular importance and recent seismic events and the resulting damage in these facilities again brings up the discussion. One of the latest events is the 2007 Chuetsu earthquake in Japan. The resulting damage in the Kashiwazaki Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant can be found in several reports. Among other vital components, turbine equipment was damaged and overflow of fuel storage pools was observed (Fukushima, 2007 and Yamashita, 2008).

Abstract:
With the combination of increased demand for electric power and advancing age of operating equipment in nuclear power plants, is more important than ever to monitor the condition of plant operation. There are many factors to monitor in nuclear power plant equipment condition. However, one that is frequently overlooked is thermal performance. Often this is an area where plant personnel can find “low hanging fruit” with great return on investment. Often thermal performance analysis can discover better methods to maintain critical plant equipment resulting in more efficient outage activities. Plants also benefit from increasing their operators’ awareness of the importance of thermal performance monitoring to find lost power generation. This paper will discuss proven methods to track, trend, and prioritize thermal performance issues in order to reduce the time from the occurrence of a loss to recovery.

Full text
Abstract:
“Combined Turbine Equipment Performance” represents the combined performance of the Gas Turbine-Generator(s) and the Steam Turbine-Generator(s), while disregarding or holding the performance of the remaining equipment in the Power Plant at its design levels. The lack of established industry standards and methods addressing the manner in which combined turbine equipment performance should be determined has invited confusion and has created opportunities for technical errors to go undetected. This paper presents a method and the supporting theory by which the corrected performance of the turbine-generators within a combined cycle plant can be combined to gauge their combined performance levels for either contractual compliance or for diagnostic purposes. The Combined Turbine Equipment Performance methodology provided in this paper, allows the performance engineer to easily separate the performance contribution of each turbine generator from the overall plant performance. As such, this information becomes a powerful diagnostic tool in circumstances where a reconciliation of overall plant performance is desired. Individual (gas or steam) turbine performance can be determined by conducting a test in accordance with the respective test code (ASME PTC 22 or PTC 6.2). However, each of these test codes corrects the measured equipment performance to fundamentally different reference conditions. Where the gas turbine-generator measured performance is corrected primarily to ambient reference conditions, the steam turbine-generator measured performance is corrected to steam flows and other steam reference conditions. The simple mathematical addition of the corrected performance of each turbine ignores the well-known fact that the steam turbine-generator output in a combined cycle plant is impacted by the gas turbine exhaust conditions, in particular the gas turbine exhaust flow and temperature. The purpose of this paper is to provide a method for the determination of “Combined Turbine Equipment Performance”, review the supporting theory, highlight the assumptions, and develop useful transfer functions for some commonly used combined cycle plant configurations, and bound the uncertainty associated with the methodology.

Abstract:
The U.S. electric utility industry continues to undergo dramatic and accelerating transformation. Reliability and resiliency are a key focus. A number of important issues including cyber and physical security challenges, aging infrastructure, and low natural gas prices continue to be of concern. Significant advances in technology, and prolonged regulatory uncertainty are also contributing factors. Electric utilities are now making substantial investment in renewable resources and other technologies needed for renewables integration. This means a reduction in investment in generation assets and an increase in the transmission and distribution grids. There is also increased investment in providing customers with solutions to lower their costs, reduce their carbon footprint and provide control over their energy management. The transformation ultimately demands significant increases in power plant generation operating capabilities and higher levels of equipment reliability while reducing O&M and capital budgets. Achieving higher levels of equipment reliability, with such tightening budget and resource constraints, requires a very disciplined approach to maintenance and an optimized mix of the following maintenance practices: • Preventative (time-based) • Predictive (condition-based) • Reactive (run-to-failure) • Proactive (combination of 1, 2 and 3 + root cause failure analysis) Preventive maintenance (PM) is planned maintenance actions taken to ensure equipment is capable of performing its required functions. PM tasks are generally time-based, depending on the availability of condition monitoring data through a predictive maintenance (PdM) program. Traditionally, PdM is largely performed by maintenance technicians in the field with handheld devices. Resource constraints usually mean that often weeks or even months elapsed between readings on the same piece of equipment. This approach has limitations with data volume, velocity, variety, and veracity. Significant recent advances in sensor and technology associated with the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) have enabled the transformation of critical power plant assets such as steam turbines, combustion turbines, generators, and large balance-of-plant equipment into smart, connected power plant assets. These enhanced assets, in conjunction with analysis and visualization software, provide a comprehensive on-line conditioning monitoring solution that enables both a reduction in time-based PM tasks and also automation of PdM tasks. This paper describes an approach by Duke Energy to apply smart, connected power plant assets to greatly enhance its fossil generation equipment reliability program and processes. It will outline the value that is currently being realized and will also examine additional opportunities.

Abstract:
Abstract Condition-based maintenance (CBM) is a maintenance program that recommends maintenance decisions based on maintenance information by condition monitoring. To apply CBM to industrial systems, it is important to diagnose condition of equipment appropriately based on the knowledge of abnormal condition of the equipment. In nuclear power plant, however, it is quite difficult to obtain the knowledge of abnormal condition. For this reason, simulation is expected to be an effective approach to estimate conditions of equipment instead of data acquisition. In this study, we focused on and built models for a motor operated valve and a pump, since the inspection cost is generally expensive due to the number of them in nuclear power plant. We considered a pump system and analyzed the measurement values in normal and abnormal conditions. Our analytical result reproduces the behavior of the measurement values and shows the characteristic deviation from normal condition in abnormal conditions.

Abstract:
The typical plant Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) holds several thousand components tags, although nuclear units may exceed 100,000. “Critical equipment” simplifies equipment selection for PM assessment and prioritizes corrective maintenance. However, critical equipment holds subtle meaning. Complex equipment, multiple failure modes, and multiple systems functional failure effects, can diminish critical equipment value. Applied to failure-preventing tasks, critical terminology should support performance-based preventive maintenance plans. Identifying critical equipment is only the start.

Abstract:
Training and professional development of nuclear power plant personnel are essential components of the atomic energy industry’s successful performance. The rapid growth of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies allowed to expand their scope and caused the need for various studies and experiments in terms of their application and effectiveness. Therefore, this publication studies the peculiarities of the application of VR and AR technologies for the training and professional development of personnel of nuclear power plants. The research and experiments on various aspects of VR and AR applications for specialists’ training in multiple fields have recently started. The analysis of international experience regarding the technologies application has shown that powerful companies and large companies have long used VR and AR in the industries they function. The paper analyzes the examples and trends of the application of VR technologies for nuclear power plants. It is determined that VR and AR’s economic efficiency for atomic power plants is achieved by eliminating design errors before starting the construction phase; reducing the cost and time expenditures for staff travel and staff training; increasing industrial safety, and increasing management efficiency. VR and AR technologies for nuclear power plants are successfully used in the following areas: modeling various atomic energy processes; construction of nuclear power plants; staff training and development; operation, repair, and maintenance of nuclear power plant equipment; presentation of activities and equipment. Peculiarities of application of VR and AR technologies for training of future specialists and advanced training of nuclear power plant personnel are analyzed. Staff training and professional development using VR and AR technologies take place in close to real-world conditions that are safe for participants and equipment. Applying VR and AR at nuclear power plants can increase efficiency: to work out the order of actions in the emergency mode; to optimize the temporary cost of urgent repairs; to test of dismantling/installation of elements of the equipment; to identify weaknesses in the work of individual pieces of equipment and the working complex as a whole. The trends in the application of VR and AR technologies for the popularization of professions in nuclear energy among children and youth are outlined. Due to VR and AR technologies, the issues of “nuclear energy safety” have gained new importance both for the personnel of nuclear power plants and for the training of future specialists in the energy sector. Using VR and AR to acquaint children and young people with atomic energy in a playful way, it becomes possible to inform about the peculiarities of the nuclear industry’s functioning and increase industry professions’ prestige.
