1.1 Boiler start-up division


Generally the sub-critical unit, according to the temperature of the high-pressure cylinder, boiler start-up is divided as follows: Tua bin cao ap p tm180. zCold boiler start-up: zWarm boiler start-uptm180-350 . zHot boiler start-uptm350 . zVery hot boiler starttm 450 It is also divided into different kinds according to the boiler downtime. zVery hot boiler start-up:t1h. zHot boiler start-up:t8h . zWarm boiler start-up: 8h t 72h. zCold boiler start-up:t72h Boiler cold start-up there is no pressure in the boiler and its temperature is close to the environment. environment Other kinds of the boiler start-up are similar to the cold boiler startup. There is pressure and temperature in the boiler. They can be considered as the cold boiler start-up with starting certain periods and before the point, the work can be omitted or simplified.

1.2 The ways of the boiler start-up


It will be used by the method of the turbine-boiler united sliding parameter to start and stop. According to the turbine design, there are two kinds of ways to start the boiler: steam go into i t high hi h pressure and d medium di pressure cylinders li d at t the th same ti times. steam t go i into t medium pressure cylinder. The main valves of the turbine will be shut down before the ignition and certain time after the ignition. g However speed p steam valves are full open. p The steam that is supplied pp by the boiler through the high and low pressure bypass is sent into the condenser. The steam volume will controlled by the valves fixed on the bypass system. In the process of the turbine-in turn, speed up, warm and synchronization of maintaining the same basic parameters of steam, steam the redundant steam is sent to the condenser through the pressure bypass. When main steam valves is fully opening, close the bypass. The unit entered the sliding pressure operation. In the end the boiler arrives the rated parameters and the turbine achieves the rated power. U i the Using th sliding lidi pressure operation, ti it can heat h t the th turbine t bi by b the th low-voltage, l lt lowl temperature steam. It can reduce heat stress and start-up heat losses. At the same time the superheater and reheater cooling has been improved. It shorts the start-up time. It reduces heat loss.

1.3 Security and efficiency in the start start-up up


Compared with the normal operation, due to the work pressure and temperature changes at any time, the boiler conditions is more complex. So th f the four areas th that t we should h ld notice ti i is as f follows: ll The temperature of the components and working substance change at any time. As heating can not be completely uniform and the various components p in different p parts of different temperatures, p , it will inevitably y produce thermal stress. In this period we must protect the drum, headers, pipes, valves, etc from damage. The water cycle is not normal. The water wall is heated relatively largely. In addition addition, working substance do not pass through some heat surface or the flow is partial and small in the short time. If the heat is too strong, parts of the water wall, superheater, reheater might exceed the temperature that is allowed to use. F small For ll amount of f flue fl input, i low l temperature, unstable bl combustion, b i it i need to prevent fire and explosion to prevent equipment from damage. Except heating the surface, there is some loss in the exhaust steam, drainage, and heat loss. In low load stage, the loss in the combustion is also large.

2.1 Start-bypass system


start-bypass system is assembled by boiler steam and water emission system, and turbine I, II-bypass system. Start-bypass yp system: y It will be used when the p power units start and shutdown or have emergency. Its function is to balance the steam between the boiler and turbine, to coordinate with the boiler combustion, to protect and regulate the power unit. Boiler emission system: In the boiler, emission ports and valves are set on all the headers, for example superheater headers, reheater headers. Ports for other boiler steam flowing are set in the bottom water headers in addition. Turbine I, II-bypass yp system: y I-bypass is high pressure steam bypass and it matches the high pressure cylinder of the turbine. II-bypass is low pressure steam bypass and it matches the low pressure of the turbine. g, the steam flows into the condensers through g IBefore the turbine running, bypass system, reheater system, II-bypass system. This will regulate the volume of steam that flows into the turbine and protect the reheater system. Through opening the I-bypass system, it can improve the reheater temperature and cool the reheater system.

2.1 Turbine I, II-bypass system


The steam supplied by the boiler will not pass through superheater system or turbine partly or completely. It will flow into the condensers passing through reducing temperature and pressure system system. It can coordinate the volume of the steam between the boiler and turbine. At the stage of starting, it can also coordinate the steam temperature between the boiler and metal temperature of the turbine. When Wh turbine bi running, i ensure certain i opening i of f I, I II II-bypass b system, so that the pressure and temperature of the steam will achieve or be close to the design, will decrease the stress and lifetime of the turbine and will reduce the start time.

2.1 Turbine I, II-bypass system


When the load changes greatly in the short time, the rate of the boiler is smaller than the rate of the turbine. The steam flows through the bypass systems so that it can increase stability of the boiler in the transitive systems, condition. It can recycle the working substance and decrease noise of putting out the steam. When the rate of the turbine is changing, it can stop the turbine with boiler running to use the bypass. When the power units only supply electricity for itself, it can reduce the cost because the boiler can be running without oil oil.

2.2 Cold start-up p procedures p


The sequence of cold start-up includes: to complete the all preparation work before startup to fill up water to blow the furnace igniting and warming up turbine rolling starts and increase the turbine speed Electric Generator synchronization to shut down the bypass system, start to burn coal and i increase the th b boiler il load l db boiler il blowdown bl d t to operate. t

11

2.2 Cold start-up pp procedures


The general procedure of boiler start-up (1) ( ) To ignite g and setup p the initial coal consumption, p , drain vales for each heating g surface should be controlled, which will be used to warming up and drain out all deposit water. (2) Before TBS system put into operation, steam generated by boiler should be exhausted by the exhaust valve at the secondary SH outlet header header, and water shall be drained by the water during ignition. The exhaust valve and drain valve will be close when the turbine bypass is in running, the steam flow will be adjusted by the turbine bypass at this time. In order to maintain the required temperature and pressure increasing rate rate, as well as to warm up the piping lines lines, the exhaust steam flow, drain and bypass flow should be controlled.

12

2.2 Cold start-up pp procedures


(3) Attention should be paid to the water circulation, drum water level and t of drum wall during the startup. The water quality should also be inspected, and silica washing might be taken in order to get the required water and steam quality. (4) In case that the steam parameter meets the requirement, turbine will be started, and gradually increase the turbine speed, warming up and connect to the power grid id for f initial i iti l load. l d It is i the th time ti to t start t t the th coal l supply l system t and d increase i the th coal input gradually. (5) While the steam flow from boiler outlet is same as that of the turbine inlet, the p shall increase the coal flow rate. The unit will start to follow sliding g operator operation model to increase pressure, temperature and load, and get the BMCR load finally (or the required load).

13

2.2 Cold start-up pp procedures


(6) While the boiler load is stable and furnace combustion is well, auxiliary oil system will be shutdown, and the combustion will wholly relay on coal. (7) The steam temperature at SH outlet should not be higher than the allowable maximum temperature of IP turbine inlet and not lower than that of allowable minimum. (8) It should try to increase the RH steam temperature since it is normally low during the startup startup. Before the completion of turbine rolling, rolling the RH steam temperature should not be higher than the allowable maximum temperature of MP turbine inlet, and not be lower than that of allowable minimum.

14

2.2 Cold start-up pp procedures

After all required general preparation has been done, the boiler water will be filled up to the startup level, which is little lower than the normal water level. Oil ignition and furnace purge could not be taken until the auxiliary system parameter of neighboring boiler meet the start up requirements and isolated isolated. The boiler startup procedure normally includeswarming up boilerturbine rollingynchronization and load increasing

15

2.3 Necessity to control the rising speed of the temperature and pressure
Must control the temperature and pressure rising speed,Because of: 1In the process of the boiler cold start-up, the boiler changes from cold to hot. There will be a lot of the stress in certain parts of the boiler and turbine, especially thick parts. So it is necessary to control the rising speed of the temperature and pressure pressure, especially temperature. 2If the temperature and pressure rising too quickly, the combust rate will increase. So at the beginning of the cold start-up, the condition is as follows: The flowing in the water wall is small and un-equality. un-equality The quantity of the steam in the superheater and reheater is still smal. The flowing in economizer is zero sometimes (stop water supply). So too high combust rate will cause too high temperature in certain parts of water wall, the big stress, also too high temperature in certain parts of the superheater, reheater and economizer. So it is necessary to control the rising speed. p

2.4 The preparatory work for cold start-up


1) Examine and ensure all the systems have the start-up conditions. 2) ) If p possess the condition of the water supply, pp y start the water p pumps p and p pump p water into drum through the water supply bypass system. Monitor the water level when the drum has the lowest level. Pay attention to monitor temperature contrast between the upper drum wall and below drum wall, not exceeding 50. Check the water pressure gauge and remote water level gauge. gauge When the water level have reached -100mm, stop the supplying water and open the recycle valves of the economizers. 3) Eliminate the oxygen from the feed water by heating and chemical ways. 4) Air blow in the furnace has been completed.

2.4 The preparatory work for cold start-up


5) All the meters is qualified, for example, flame meters. The power unit connect, MFT (main fuel trip), OFT (Oil fuel trip) and other protect set are qualified. 6) Before B f th b the boiler il i ignition, iti using i th the steam t supplied li d b by auxiliary ili boiler b il to t heat h t the water, so that it can reduce the start-up time and save the oil for starting. The parameters of the steam are about 350, 0.98MPa and flow is about 50t/h. It can raise the pressure to 0.49MPa. 7) After satisfying the ignition condition, close the beside boiler and ignite with oil. The process of the heating should be slow. The temperature rising speed of the drum wall should be less than 1.5 /min. The allowed temperature contrast between the betwee t e upper uppe drum d u wall wa and a d the t e lower owe drum d u wall wa is s according acco d g to d diagram ag a . 8) Prevent that steam temperature is too low and water flows into the heating pipe. 9) Start the air heater, and use hot wind recycle system to protect the air heater. 10) ) Regulate g the furnace air p pressure, ,p prepare p to ignite. g

21

2 5 Ignition 2.5
Get the ignition picture of the FSSS from DCS, check the ignition condition. Remotely or on the spot ignite the burners by using oil oil. After ignition, monitor the water level and water quality. Start the systems of down medicating and sampling. Control the combust and ensure the the blow-off, furance outlet air temperature p is lower than 538 , the temperature p difference of the upper and lower drum wall is less than 50. Control the valves for drainage fixed on the heat surfaces to warm the pipes and drain the water. After all water has been drained, shut the valves timely to protect heat surfaces. But the valves for the drainage fixed on the superheater system can be closed late because they can low the pressure. Stop boiler water supply, start the recirculating system to protect the economizer. i Control the combustion rate and turbine bypass systems to regulate the steam flow. Thus it can control the speed of the steam pressure and temperature.
22

2.6 Turbine rolling, raising speed, synchronization


Along with combustion rate increasing, the steam parameters achieve the parameters requested by the t bi (main turbine ( i Steam St temperature t t i is 340.the th pressure i is 5 5.88MPa. 88MP the th steam t flow fl is i 220t/h reheater h t Steam temperature is 300.the pressure is 1.01MPa). Before the turbine running, ensure the steam is qualified and the level protect system has been started. Control the steam temperature p and combustion rate and use the high g and low bypass yp systems y to control the steam parameters. If necessary, start the temperature reducing system and drain valves fixed on the superheater to control the steam. Pay attention to water level and pressure in the drum. After the turbine rolling, gradually turn off the valves fixed on the bypass systems. The steam will pass th through h th the t turbine. bi It can satisfy ti f th the t turbine bi running i and d primary i l load d( (about b t 5%) avoiding idi too t much h adjustment in combustion.

23

2.6 Turbine rolling, raising speed, synchronization


When the power unit with primary load load, maintain the temperature and pressure of the steam. The turbine maintain the running speed and the generator is on synchronization. When the opening of the turbine valves is 90%, usually completely close the valves of the bypass. bypass After on synchronization, increase combustion and pressure in the drum according to P19 . Control the temperature rate of the main steam at about 0.73/min until it achieves desigh value 541. Control the temperature rate of the reheater steam at about 0.85 /min until it achieves specified value 541. After on synchronization, open the damper fixed at reheater side and then set it auto. Check the drain valves of the reheater have been closed. Make sure that the probe for measuring the wind temperature has been quitted.
24

2.7 Rising up to the specified load


After the turbine has primary load, the steam completely flows into the turbine. Th f The furnace and dh hot t wind i dt temperature t h have b been raised i d hi high. h At thi this ti time, i ignite it the burners with coal gradually. Then regulate the boiler combustion. Power unit raise the temperature and load according g to the start-up p curve ( (rising g speed p of the temperature p is less than 1.5/min and the pressure less than 0.1MPa/min). However, load rate is mainly controlled by the turbine, not by the boiler, so load rise up to the target value according to the turbine request. In addition addition, steam temperature will achieve the specified value earlier than the steam pressure achieved. Steam pressure can achieve the specified value earlier than the load (depending on the opening of the turbine regulating valves). If the steam pressure achieves the specified earlier than the load, increase the opening of the turbine regulating valves and raise the coal. coal In condition of constant pressure pressure, raise the load to specified value.

5. The boiler shutdown


The boiler shutdown is divided into two types: normal shutdown (planned examination or reserve) and accident shutdown. The latter is also divided into two types: MFT and urgent shutdown. shutdown The time of planned examination is long and it requests the boiler cools down. However the time of the reserve is short and the boiler maintains hot. All the planned examination, reserve or accident boiler shutdowns adopt variable parameter means. The boiler and turbine combines so that it can make the unit cool down fast. Variable parameter means usually includes the following steps: Preparation. decrease the load. Turbine slowing down. Stop the combust. decrease the pressure and cool down .

39

5.1 Boiler operation in the shutdown


Preparation: blowing ash etc. Decrease the load: according to certain rate, for example: 1.5% MCR/min. The burners also decrease and at the time we can use oil to assist. With the fuel reducing, decrease the wind but the total of the wind not less than 30%. Turbine slowing g down: when turbine slowing g down, , start the bypass yp systems y and continue to decrease the boiler load. When the boiler load is about 5%, stop the combustion. Then we should control the p pressure and cooling g down speed. p The superheater p and reheater drain valves can be opened for some time.

40

5.1 Boiler operation p in the shutdown


When the boiler cools down, finish the furnace blow. Then the boiler can be well ventilated with the nature. For the reserve boiler, after blowing, stop all the fan and close the damper. If urgent shutdown, after blowing, start the fan to cool down the boiler. If the smoke temperature is less than specified value(150 ), we can stop the air preheater. After Aft stopping t i the th water t supply, l start t t the th economizer i recycle l valves. l

The boiler operation refers to the motion which is after the power unit start-up. In the power unit, the turbine and boiler combine together. The main work in the boiler running is to monitor and regulate the various parameters, to satisfy the demands that the turbine requests, and to make sure the boiler works safely . In the boiler running, kinds of the parameters are changing all the time. Constant is relative. Boiler running is a moving process. The boiler will be affected by various factors, factors so that the parameters will deviate the design. design The task in the running is to maintain the parameters changing in safe and economic areas. The running is divided into two types: auto regulate and man hand regulate. The power units adopt high auto regulate system and supply man hander regulate plans.

54

6.1 operation and control task


Make sure that the boiler parameters achieve the specified value and satisfy the turbine request. Maintain steam pressure and temperature the steady and normal normal. Make sure that the water and steam are qualified. Balance the water supply, and maintain the water level in the drum. Maintain the good combustion, reduce the heater loss, and improve the boiler efficiency. Timely regulate the boiler running, and make the boiler run in the safe and economic condition.In the boiler running, auto equipment will be used to monitor the parameters. If necessary, we can regulate the parameters by manual.

Melting point of Coal ash low , sulfur content high , the metal content high in coal powder. Long-term overload operation or hypoxia run. furance air leakage, especially air leakage at the bottom. Burner not working properly or the adjustment unreasonable, lead to the power field disturbance, , the flame center skewed or upward, p , melting g coal washed directly y the coal heated surface. Long-term oil leakage of oil gun or atomized poor to lead to oil oil droplets carrying and gathering dust on the heated surface . Failing g to heated surface of the water wall and furance outlet for soot blowing, g, so that heated surface appearance of pollution. Ash blowing equipment failure, ash blowing and slaging removing not timely result in accumulated into slaging. Not exclude timely the slaging around the watching fire hole and the burner , so it spread. p

3.Treatment:
Strengthen the soot blowing. The slaging around the watching fire hole and the burner as well as the slaging slag in time to prevent the accumulation of cinder spreading. Oil leakage of oil gun and bad atomizing etc. defects be eliminated in time . If fo found nd slaging tendenc tendency ,should sho ld adj adjust st the flame flame, and appropriate red reduce ce the full degree of flame to prevent flame up and painting wall. Appropriately increasing the excess air ratio, while minimizing the leakage. Ensure the normal operation of coal pulverizing system. When slaging or sticky ash serious to difficulty to hole the normal running or endanger the safety of heating surface, application shutdown in time to play slaging, cleaning. And the burner shoud be adjusted and repaired in shutdown and clean heated surfaces.
