Weigh bridge Wagon tippler Coal yard Reclaim hopper Crusher house & junction tower 2.1.1 WEIGHT BRIDGE This is used to measure the weight of coal coming in the wagon (BOXN). This is in motion weighing system. We are using two systems: Senlogic Systems Avery India Systems Through this, we can weigh the quantity of coal by taking the Gross Weight (when boxn is coming with coal) and tare weight (the weight when the empty boxn passes away) from which we can difference it by gross weight so that weight of coal is measured. Gross Weight Tare Weight = Weight of Coal
2.1.2 WAGON TIPPLER
Through this, we can tipple the wagon & coal will fall on appron feeder through which coal goes to coal yard through belt conveyor. It can rotate near about 126 degree.
2.1.3 SIDE ARM CHARGER(SAC):
This is used to drag the boxns and placed it suitably on wagon tippler. Each boxn is decoupled manually and then sac takes it to the wagon tippler platform using magnetic sensors and limit switch. Four magnetic sensors are fixed at different locations to control the position of side arm charger namely as A, B, C and D. From position A,
CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 14
the side arm charger firstly comes to boxn, lower the arm and couple the boxn and go to the B position. At B position, each boxn is decoupled manually and the sac goes to the c position. At C position, the boxn stops at platform of wagon tippler and auto decouple occurs. Then sac moves to position D. At D position, arm is automatically lifted and the hooter sounds. Then the wagon tippler rotates near about 126 degree for 1 minute. In this time, the side arm charger again goes to the position a and the process go on.
2.1.4 COAL YARD: Through conveyor belt, coal is transferred to the coal yard where it is further goes to the reclaim hopper through trucks. There are different types of coal comes in coal yard especially from
Indonesia, South Africa. These coal mixes in proportion with Indian coal to maintain a required gross calorific value.
2.1.5 RECLAIM HOPPER:
Coal is dumped into this hopper by using dumpers. Below this hopper there is unbalanced mode system in which coal from hopper falls on vibrating screen and conveyed through belt conveyor to crusher house.
Page 15
The raw coal is fed to primary crusher house via belt conveyor where the size of coal is reduced from 600mm to 100mm. Magnetic separator, separates the iron particles & then to secondary crusher house for further reduction of coal (20mm sized). Vibrating screen allows only 20mm sized coal to drier & through tippler or trolley, it passes over to coal bunker through junction tower by conveyor belt.
BOILER OVERVIEW
Boiler Overview:
Soot blowers Coal bunkers and feeders Pulverizes Coal piping Burners Igniters & warm-up burners Duct work Insulation and legging
2.2.1 Water Drum:
Page 17
It is a reservoir of water/steam at the top end of the water tubes in the water-tube boiler. They store the steam generated in the water tubes and act as a phase separator for the steam /water mixture.
Steam and water mixture enter the steam drum through riser tubes. The saturated water at the bottom of steam drum flows down through down comers.
Feed water is also fed to the steam drum trough a feed pipe extending inside the drum.
2.2.2 Furnace & Water Wall Tubes Furnace is the primary part of boiler where the chemical energy of fuel is converted to thermal energy. Furnace is incorporated with water wall tubes where water is evaporated to steam. In the water wall tubes heat is added to evaporate the feed water to steam. As tubes are heated, a part of water is converted to steam & mixture flows back to drum. In drum steam is separated. 2.2.3 Reheaters & Desuperheaters: Reheater is used to raise the temperature of steam from which part of the energy has been extracted in high pressure turbine.
Page 18
By reheating efficiency can be increased which increases with number of stages. Single reheating is usually applied for capacity above 100mw & 2 reheat above 500mw. Desuperheater is located between two super heater header and the steam flows through it.
Water of high quality is introduced into the superheated steam through a spray nozzle at the throat of a venturi section which mixes and cools the superheated steam. By regulating the water spray steam temperature can be easily controlled. The spray water will normally obtain from feed water line after the hp heaters and before feed regulation station. 2.2.4 ECONOMISER An economizer absorbs heat from the flue gases and adds this as sensible heat to the feed water before water enters the evaporative circuit of boiler. Feed water is supplied to economizer inlet header via feed stop and check valves. Flow of feed water is upward through the economizer that is counter flow to flue gases & from outlet header feed water is led to steam drum. By recovering heat from flue gases and supplying it to feed water it increases efficiency in steam generation or in other words saves fuel. 2.2.5 AIR PRE HEATER(APH): APH is a heat exchanger in which air temperature is raised by transferring heat from other fluid such as flue gases. Stability of combustion is improved by use of hot air. Less unburnt flue particles in flue gas. In case of pulverized coal combustion, hot air can be used for drying the coal as well as for transporting the pulverized coal to burners. 2.2.6 FANS:
Page 19
PA (Primary Air Fan) : These are the high pressure fans which supply the air needed to dry & transport coal either directly from the coal mills to the furnace or to the intermediate bunker. These fans are usually of the radial aerofoil type. FD (Forced Draft Fan) : These fans supply the air necessary for fuel combustion and must be seized to handle the stoichiometric air plus the excess air excess air needed for proper burning of the fuel. These fans are usually of the radial aerofoil or variable pitch axial type. ID (Induced Draft Fan) : These fans evacuate combustion products from the boiler furnace in atmosphere through stack by creating sufficient negative pressure.

2.3.1 PRINCIPLE OF TURBINE Steam is allowed to expand through narrow orifice, it assumes kinetic energy at the expenses of enthalpy, and this kinetic energy is converted into mechanical energy through the impulse or reaction of steam against the blade. Steam moves continuously through blades as a result centrifugal pressure exerted on the blade. Total motive force = Centrifugal force + Change of momentum (rotational energy) 2.3.2 TURBINE COMPONENT Main component: 1. Inner & Outer Casing 2. Fixed Blade or Diaphragm 3.

2.3.3.1 Condenser: It condenses the steam & maintains the vacuum at the exhaust of LP turbine. 2.3.3.2 Main air ejector: Main the vacuum by extracting the non condensable gases from the condensate. 2.3.3.3 Cooling Water (CW ) Pumps:
To circulate cooling water through condenser tubes for cooling the system. 2.3.3.4 Condensate Extraction Pump (CEP ): Extract condensate from condenser hot well & passes it to deaerator. 2.3.3.5 Low pressure heater (LPH): To raise the temperature of condensate by transferring heat taken from turbine extraction. 2.3.3.6 Deaerator: To remove dissolved gases from feed water by increasing their temperature with pegging steam taken from APRDS. 2.3.3.7 Boiler feed pump (bfp): To pump the feed water from deaerator to boiler (economizer) at a very high pressure. 2.3.3.8 Oil pumps: CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 22
Different types of oil pump used: Main oil pump(MOP) To supply lube oil & control oil during normal operation of turbine. Auxiliary oil pump (AOP) To supply lube & control oil during start up & shut down of turbine. Emergency oil pump (EOP) To supply lube oil to bearings during ac failure. Jacking oil pump (JOP) For lifting turbine shaft during startup & shut down

2.4.1 Application of ESP: Removal of dirt from flue gases in steam plants. Cleaning of air to remove fungi and bacteria in establishments producing antibiotics and other drugs. Cleaning of air in ventilation and air conditioning systems. Removal of oil mists in machine shops and acid mists in chemical process plants. Cleaning of blast furnace gases. Recovery of valuable materials such as oxides of copper, lead, and tin. 2.4.2 ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR WORKING PRINCIPLE
The precipitation process involves 4 main functions Corona generation Particle charging Particle collection Removal of particles
1. Corona Discharge:
Due to the ionization of gas molecules, + ve ions, -ve ions and free electrons are generated. CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 24
2. Particle Charging: o In this, we apply a voltage of 40 KV between the collecting electrode and the emitting electrode. o The -ve charges of ions and free electrons travel towards +ve electrode and the +ve charges of ions travel towards -ve electrodes. o When -ve ions travel towards +ve electrodes, the -ve charges get attached to the dust particles and thus the dust particles are electrically charged. 3. Particle collection:
4. Removal of particles: Through rapping mechanism, we remove the particles collected on the plate. In this, there is a shaft on which several hammers are attached. This shaft is rotated and hammer strikes the plate and ash is collected in the hopper.
Page 25
At the bottom of every boiler, a hopper has been provided for collection of the bottom ash from the bottom of the furnace. This hopper is always filled with water to quench the ash and clinkers falling down from the furnace. Some arrangement is included to crush the clinkers and for conveying the crushed clinkers and bottom ash to a storage site. 2.4.3.2 Fly ash system:
Fly ash is captured and removed from the flue gas by electrostatic precipitators located at the outlet of the furnace and before the induced draft fan. The fly ash is periodically removed from the collection hoppers below the precipitators. Generally, the fly ash is pneumatically transported to storage silos for subsequent transport by trucks.
2.5.1 Cooling tower: Cooling tower is an application where the plant heat exchangers are cooled with water. The pump keeps the water re-circulation through the heat exchangers where it picks up heat and distributes on to the cooling tower. The heat is released from the water through evaporation. The cold water enters the heat exchangers for cooling. The resulting hot water from heat exchangers is sent to cooling tower. The cold water exits the cooling tower and is sent back to the exchangers for cooling. Make up water source is used to replenish around 2 % of water lost due to evaporation and drift. Classification of cooling:
2.5.2 Types of cooling tower: 1. Natural draft cooling towers : Distinct shape much like a tall cylinder, it operates on a chimney principle that allows air movement on density differential. Such towers have the advantage of not requiring any fans, motors, gear boxes etc. Due to the tremendous size, these type of towers are used only for very high flow rates. CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 27
2. Mechanical draft cooling towers: These are more widely used. These towers utilize large fans to force air through circulating water. The water falls downward over fill surfaces which help increase the contact time between the water and the air. This helps maximize heat transfer between the two. 2.5.3 DE - MINERALISING PLANT: De-mineralization (DM) is the process of removing mineral salts from water by using the ion exchange process which produces water with high quality & purity that used in boiler as feed water. De- Mineralization System Consisting of Clarifier PSF (pressurized sand filter) ACF (activated carbon filter) SAC (strong acid cation exchanger) Degasser WBA (weak base anion exchanger) SBA (strong base anion exchanger). MB (mix bed). UF filter All these have the following functions:

The generator stator is a tight construction supporting and enclosing stator winding, core and hydrogen cooling medium. Hydrogen is contained within the frame and circulated by fans mounted at either end of rotor. The generator is driven by a direct coupled steam turbine at the speed of 3000 rpm. The generator is designed for continuous rated output. Temperature detector or other devices installed or connected within the machine, permits the winding core and hydrogen temperature, pressure and purity in machine.
4.3.1.2 STATOR CORE:The stator core is stacked from the insulated electrical sheet steel lamination and mounted in supporting rings over the insulated dovetail guide bars. In order to minimize eddy current losses core is made of thin laminations. Each lamination layer is made of individual sections. The ventilation ducts are imposed so as to distribute the gas accurately over the core and in particularly to give adequate support to the teeth. The main features of core are 1. To provide mechanical support. CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 32
2. To carry efficiently electric, magnetic flux. 3. To ensure the perfect link between the core and rotor.
4.3.1.3 STATOR WINDING:Each conductor must be capable of carrying rated current without over heating. The stator winding consists of two layers made up of individual bars. Windings for the stators are made of copper strips wound with insulated tape which is impregnated with varnish, dried under vacuum and hot pressed to form a solid insulation bar. These bars are then placed in the stator slots and held in with wedges to form the end turns. These end turns are rigidly placed and packed with blocks of insulation material to withstand heavy pressure.The stator bar consists of hollow (in case of 500 MW generators) solid strands distributed over the entire bar cross-section, so that good heat dissipation is ensured. In the straight slot portion the strands are transposed by 540 degrees. The transposition provides for mutual neutralization of the voltage induced in the individual strands due to slot cross field and end winding flux leakage and ensure that minimum circulating current exists. The current flowing through the conductors is thus uniformly distributed over the entire cross section so that the current dependent losses will be reduced.The alternate arrangement of one hollow strand and two solid strands ensures optimum heat removal capacity and minimum losses. The electrical connection between top and bottom bars is made by connecting sleeve.Class F insulation is used.
4.3.2 ROTOR
Rotor shaft consists of single piece alloy steel forging of high mechanical and magnetic properties performance test includes :1. 2. Tensile test on specimen piece. Surface examination.

3. 4. 5. 6.
Sulfur prist tests. Magnetic crack detection . Visual examination of bore. Ultrasonic examination.
Slots are milled on the rotor gorging to receive the rotor winding. Transverse slots machined in the pole faces of the rotor to equalize the moment of inertia in direct and quadrilateral axis of rotor with a view minimizing the double frequency.
4.3.2.1
ROTOR WINDINGS :
rotor winding is of direct coil type and consists of parallel strips of very high conductivity Silver Bearing Copper, bent on edge to form coil. The coils are placed in impregnated glass, laminated short shells; using glass strips inter turn insulation and will be brazed at the end to form continuous winding. The complete winging will be packed at high temperature and pressed to size by heavy steel damping rings. When the windings have cooled, heavy dove tail wedges of non-magnetic materials will seal the insulation at the top of slot portion. 4.3.2.2 SLIP RINGS The slip rings are made of forged steel. They are located at either side of Generator Shaft. The slip ring towards the exciter side is given +ve polarity initially. They have helical grooves and skewed holes in the body for cooling purpose by air 4.3.2.3 BEARINGS : Generator bearings have electrical seats of consists of steel bodies with removable steel pads. The bearings are formed for forced lubrication of oil at a pressure From the same pump that supplies oils to the turbine , bearings & governing gears. There is a provision to ensure & measure the rotor bearing temperature by inserting a resistance thermometer in the oil pockets.
avoid excessive heating and consequent wear and tear of its main components during operation. This Chapter deals with the rotor-hydrogen cooling system and stator water cooling system along with the shaft sealing and bearing cooling systems. 4.3.4.1 ROTOR COOLING SYSTEM : The rotor is cooled by means of gap pick-up cooling, wherein the hydrogen gas in the air gap is sucked through the scoops on the rotor wedges and is directed to flow along the ventilating canals milled on the sides of the rotor coil, to the bottom of the slot where it takes a turn and comes out on the similar canal milled on the other side of the rotor coil to the hot zone of the rotor. Due to the rotation of the rotor, a positive suction as well as discharge is created due to which a certain quantity of gas flows and cools the rotor. This method of cooling gives uniform distribution of temperature. Also, this method has an inherent advantage of eliminating the deformation of copper due to varying temperatures. 4.3.4.2 HYDROGEN COOLING SYSTEM: Hydrogen is used as a cooling medium in large capacity generator in view of its high heat carrying capacity and low density. But in view of its forming an explosive mixture with oxygen, proper arrangement for filling, purging and maintaining its purity inside the generator have to be made. Also, in order to prevent escape of hydrogen from the generator casing, shaft sealing system is used to provide oil sealing. The hydrogen cooling system mainly comprises of a gas control stand, a drier, an liquid level indicator, hydrogen control panel, gas purity measuring and indicating instruments, valves and necessary instruments necessary for controlling and the inter connecting piping The system is capable of performing the following functions : 1.Filling in and purging of hydrogen safely without bringing in contact with air. 2.Maintaining the gas pressure inside the machine at the desired value at all the Times 3. Provide indication to the operator about the condition of the gas inside the machine i.e its pressure, temperature and purity. CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 35
4. Continuous circulation of gas inside the machine through a drier in order to remove any water vapour that may be present in it. 5. Indication of liquid level in the generator and alarm in case of high level. 4.3.4.3 STATOR COOLING SYSTEM:The stator winding is cooled by distillate. which is fed from one end of the machine by Teflon tube and flows through the upper bar and returns back through the lower bar of another slot. Turbo generators require water cooling arrangement over and above the usual hydrogen cooling arrangement. The stator winding is cooled in this system by circulating demineralised water (DM water) through hollow conductors. The cooling water used for cooling stator winding calls for the use of very high quality of cooling water. For this purpose DM water of proper specific resistance is selected. Generator is to be loaded within a very short period if the specific resistance of the cooling DM water goes beyond certain preset values. The system is designed to maintain a constant rate of cooling water flow to the stator winding at a nominal inlet water temperature of 40 deg.C.As it is closed loop working, the cooling water is again cooled by water which is also demineralised to avoid contamination with any impure water in case of cooler tube leakage. The secondary DM cooling water is in turn cooled by clarified water taken from clarified water header.
4.3.5 EXCITATION SYSTEM OF ALTERNATOR:The electric power generators require direct current excitation magnets for its field system. The excitation! field system must be reliable, stable in operation and must respond quickly to excitation current requirements The excitation system of a generator comprises of : 1. The main exciter 2. The pilot and auxiliary exciters 3. The voltage control system 4.3.5.1 DEVELOPMENT OF EXCITATION SYSTEM Initially the DC Excitation system was being used. The development of improved
Page 36
Techniques resulted in the increased capacity of generators, which in turn raised the Demand of excitation power. But it was found that DC excitation could not meet the Demands of large capacity turbo- generators High excitation currents at comparative low voltage were required and these would entail a large number of brushes operating on the exciter commentator. This will create difficulties in operation and will require extensive maintenance of commentator and Brush Gear. The other disadvantage of DC exciter is that commentator may be satisfactory during steady state but during load fluctuations, there is a risk of flash over at the commentator. The maximum peripheral speed of commentator for proper operation should not be more than 45 meters per second. Reliability is one of the main requisites of excitation system of the generator. This accelerated development of AC excitation system, where AC generator along with rectifier system is used for field excitation. In India practice is to use DC excitation system for 77 MW system and AC excitation for higher capacity turbo generators. 4.3.5.2 DC EXCITATION SYSTEM Direct current exciters are shut wound machines and compounding can be included to improve response. The open-circuit characteristics and basic diagram of a Self excited compounded shut wound exciter are shown in fig.49 (a and b ). It is important to notethe unstable voltage region HB on the open circuit characteristic of the exciter. Since OE is the excitation current when voltage BE is across the shunt field. BE/OE is the value of the critical resistance of the circuit. The line of this cri tical resistance coincides with slope of the voltage characteristic therefore, the voltage is indefinite and can vary freely between the valve M due to the exciter permanent magnetism, and value B the voltage due to field current OE. Even small temperature increases in the field winding will contribute to voltage in stability. A method of overcoming this effect is to insert a saturation liner behind each pole piece. Because of reduced magnetic section the liner is saturated much sooner than the pole body; thereby introducing the required non-linearity in the open circuit characteristic. One adverse effect of the saturation liner however, is to depress the ceiling.
Page 37
exciter, itself an a.c. machine. The pilot exciter can also be a permanent magnet generator. The main a.c. exciter is generally a turbo-type generator. It must operate over a wide voltage and current range with ceiling valves considerably greater than the rated full load valve. Furthermore the exciter output must respond quickly to excitation changes at its own rotor terminals. The excitation is controlled by the AVR.The excitation for the pilo exciter is obtained from a permanent magnet of exciter where output is rectified. The pilot Output, which excites the field of AC main exciter, is controlled by Automatic voltage Regulator. The rectified output of the main exciter than energies the rotor of the synchronous generator. In lieu of main exciter the A.C. supply can be taken from the grid, or generator itself rectified and given to the generator field. This is called static excitation. In India for 200/210 MW the following two excitations system have been adopted: High frequency Excitation system with an AC exciter, permanent magnet pilot exciter and an uncontrolled rectifier.Generator potential fed static Excitation system with controlled rectifiers (SCR) and a rectifier transformer.
5 TARNSFORMER
5.1 CONSTRUCTION
Transformer assembles of following parts. 5.1.1
CORE
The material used for is silicon steel, which gives a high resistively and also a low hysteresis loss. The silicon contents are about 4%to5%. A thickness of .33mm is normally used for transformer but for big core type. The cross section of core should be circle. This type of practice involves the change in dimension of each lamination, which uneconomical. Lamination can be of any type such as: 1. I-type Lamination 2. E-type Lamination 3. L-type Lamination
Page 39
The yoke section is for transformer using let rolled lamination is made 15% greater than that of core so as to reduce the iron the losses in yoke and also decrease the magnetizing current. The various type of yoke are shown (a) is used for small capacity transformer while section (b) &(c) are used for large capacity transformers.
5.1.3 WINDING
The transformer winding are classified into the following categories. (a) (b) Concentric windings Sandwich windings
The concentric winding is used for core type transformer. The L.V. winding are placed next to the core and H.V. winding on the out side. Concentric winding can be divided into the following. 1. Cross-over 2. Helical 3. Disc
AN: natural cooling by atmosphere circulation without any special devices. The transformer ore and coils are open all around to the air. This method is confined to very small units to few KVA and low voltages
AB: CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 40
In this case the cooling is improved by an air blast directed by suitable trucking and produced by a fan ON: The great majority of transformers are oil immersed with natural cooling i.e., the heat developed in the cores and the coils is passed to the oil and hence to the walk of the tank from which it is dissipated. The advantage over air cooling ducts or of moisture affecting the insulation and the design higher voltage is greatly improved OB: In this method the cooling of an ON type transformers is improved by air blast over the outside of tank OFN: The oil is circulated by pump to natural air cooler OFB: for larger transformer artificial cooling may be used. The OFB method comparisons a forced circulation of the oil to a refrigerator, where it is cooled by air blast OW: An oil immersed transformer of this type is cooled by the circulation of water in cooling tube situated at the top o the tank but below oil level OFW: Similar to OFB, except that the refrigerator employs water instead of air blast or cooling the coil, which is circulated by pump through the transformers to the top. Mixed cooling:

surface of oil. Dielectric strength of oil is greatly affected by moisture so oil should be kept free from moisture.
5.1.8 BREATHER
When the oil expends or contracts due to change in temp. There is displacement in air when the transformer coils the oil level goes down and air is drawn in. this is known as breathing. The air coming in is passed through the apparels called breather for the purpose of extracting moisture. The breather consists of a small varsal, which contain a drying agent like silica gets crystal impregnated with cobalt chloride.
5.1.9 CONSERVATOR
These are provided to keep oil out of contact with air. The function on conservator is taken up expansion and construction of oil without allowing it to come in contact with outside air. It consists of an airtight metal drum fixed above the level of the top of the tank and connected with it by a pipe. The main tank is completely filed when oil is cool. But conservator is partially filled. So the surface oil in contact with outside air is reduced to a great extent. The sludge thus formed remain in the conservator it self and does not go to she main tank.
5.1.10 POWER FANS The natural cooling of the transformer can be increased by the addition of power fans placed at the base or along the side of radiators, whether they are fitted directly to the tank or groups in outside gangs.

This relay is provided for transformer protection when electrical breakdown occurs between the live parts, or in the event of fault to ground, short circuits between turns, phase interruptions, burning of core, oil leakage in the tank or in the oil cooling system. This relay will operate on the occurrence of gas formation or on sudden variations of oil level resulting from abnormal transformer conditions by actuating an alarm signal and if the fault is serious or persistent, by putting the transformer out of service.
transmits through the capillary tube, the temperature variation to the temperature indicator. A heater coil is placed around the thermometer bulb and is supplied by the secondary of main current transformer. The current in the heater is proportional to that is flowing in the winding. The heater is designed to obtain a temperature rise and a thermal inertia equal to those of transformer winding.

All four conditions produce mechanical and thermal stress with the transformer windings overload can be sustained for long periods being limited only by the permissible temperature rise in the transformer windings and oil excessive overloading results in deterioration of insulating and subsequent failure. It is used to provide winding and oil temperature indicators with alarm and trip contacts. As soon as the temperature of winding and/or oil exceeds the predetermined values of the contacts and bridges completing the circuit of an alarm bell and if the temperature reached the hot spot values the transformer is tripped. The external faults subject the transformer to electromagnetic stress and over heating.
It is therefore, desirable to limit the duration of such fault currents. Terminal faults on the feeding side of the transformer have no adverse effect on the transformer but those on the load side do have such fault can not operate the gas and oil pressure relay more commonly known as "Buchholz relay".These no fall in the protective zone of the restricted earth fault or differential CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 44
relays. The majority of internal fault is either earth fault or inters turn faults. The severity of faults depends on the location of fault transformer design and methods of system earthing, phase faults within a transformer are rare.
Incipient faults are internal faults, which constitutes no immediate hazard. However, if they are left undetected. They may develop into a major fault. The main fault in this group are core faults due to isolation failure between the core lamination and oil failure due to either loss of oil or obstruction in the circulation due of the oil. In that Case overheating will occur the protective systems applied to a power transformer are as follows:
1. 2. 3. 4. Gas and oil pressure relay (Buchholz relay) over current and earth fault differential frame leakage
Simple over current earth fault protection is applied against external short circuits and excessive over loads. These over current relays and earth faults relays were inverse and definite minimum time types.
The over current relay fails to distinguish between conditions of external short circuits over load or internal faults of the transformer. The operation is governed primarily by currents and time ratings and the characteristics curve of the relay. To permit the use of overload capacity of the transformer and co-ordination with either similar relay at about 125 to 150 percent of the full load currents of the transformer but below the minimum secondary current.
The simple over current relays therefore seldom serves the function of primary and relays protection of the power transformers. They serve only as the back up protection both for the transformer, internal and external faults. It is a common practice to provide the over current and earth fault protection on the in feed side of the transformer and is made to trip both H.V. and L.V. breakers over current and earth faults relays are provided on the other windings which are not connected to any power sources but to serve primarily as back up protector to the circuit of load of the respective voltage. In the latter case no interruption of primary side breakers is provided with the over current relays on the secondary side.
CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 45
The over current relays have three elements one for each phase and earth fault has a single element. The normal large of current setting available on IDMT over current relays is 50-200% and on earth fault element 20 to 80 per cent on the latter another range 15 to 40 per cent is also available and may be selected where the earth fault current is restricted. Due to insertion of impedance in the neutral grounding. In the case of transformer winding with neutral earthen unrestricted earth fault protection is obtained by connecting an ordinary earth fault relay areas a neutral current transformer. The unrestricted over current and earth fault relays should have proper time lag to coordinate with the protective relays of other circuit to avoid indiscriminate tripping. It is a common practice to provide differential relays on all transformers above 5 to 10 MVA. The advantages over other scheme of protection are (i) the feeds between the current transformer and power transformer provided the current transformer are separately mounted and not in the transformer bushings. In case of very serve internal faults differential relays operate faster than the buchholz relay they control the external damages. (ii) The differential protection responds to phase to phase faults and the protective zone. This generally comprises all equipment and connection between the current transformers on all sides of the transformer. (iii) A transformer differential relay operates on circulation current principle, the currents in various branches windings of transformer are through the media of current transformers. The ratio and connections of various winding of all the secondary to earth through the tank and signal earth connection thus energizing the current transformer and operating the relay. The buchholz can defect faults caused under oil only. The flash over the bushings are not adequately covered by other protective scheme defects such faults and also on
This protective scheme is externally sensitive in detecting earth fault in the transformer zone, the application is independent of normal load through fault conditions and to ratio variations due to two transformers tapping it is possible to set the relay at very low value of fault current an order to obtain successful results. It is essential that the flow of fault current is correspondingly (that the flow of fault current) to the path of transformer earth

connection. Precaution should be taken to ensure that there is no possibility of a portion of the fault current finding its way to the transformer frame circuit of the other adjustment transformer filled with the same type of protection else false tripping of healthy transformer might occur.
The local distribution systems are of shorter length and operate on comparatively lower voltage. The transmission lines operate on considerably longer distance and at much higher voltages more over the over head transmission lines or network or susceptible to more frequent and numerous fault conditions. The requirements of the protective gear equipment are different in the two cases particularly in the high speed and unit type protection. The relay used for feeder protection is commonly time graded over current and earth fault instantaneous directional over current and earth fault in input ends only or instantaneous nondirectional. Instantaneous pilot wire protection with time graded over current and earth fault acts as back up at input . The time graded over current relay is simple and versatile in application. However, to
achieve proper selectivity the operating times have to be increased to each step. To minimise the damage due to fault and improve systems, stability faster schemes are necessary ,the pilot can be set independently to operate at high speeds such schemes often need to be start by protection which is provided by time graded over current and earth fault relays.

The main components of 220 KV switch yard is:6.1 Circuit Breaker The Circuit breakers generated generally under over voltage or over current due to any fault on the line. For operation of circuit beaker the signal is given by relay. The relay sends the signal to circuit breaker and circuit breaker isolates the faulty section from the line. Generally the circuit breakers are provided before the equipment for safety. It also put up where bur bars are CAPTIVE POWER PLANT (HZL, CHANDERIYA) SUDARSHAN SINGH CHUNDAWAT(07EIMEE042) Page 48

Principal of operation:-
A Circuit Breaker essentially consists of fixed and moving contacts, called Electrodes. Under normal operation, there contacts regain, closed and will not open automatically unless system becomes faulty. The contacts are moved apart by some mechanism under fault. When the contacts of circuit breaker are separated under fault conditions, an arc is struck between them. The current is thus able to continue until the discharge cease. 6.2 Air Blast Circuit Breaker:-

In HZL T.P.S. Switchyard all 132 KV breakers are ABB make AIR BLAST CIRCUIT BREAKER. A.B.C.B. uses compressed air for both as direct medium a well as are extinction purpose. When breaker is in closed position, contacts remains closed due to spring action and there is no air inside the chamber. When breaker sets trip signal, air will pass through solenoid. Common shaft will move and fresh air with pressure will enter from receiver tank to hollow arcing chamber to keep contact separated under air pressure against the spring force. Six arcing chambers are provided for quenching the arc is each phase. When breaker opens the arc is divided in six parts and ionized gases are taken away by air blast and quenching the arc rapidly. To open the breaker minimum 30 Kg/cm air pressure is required, air pressure normal and low indication/Annunciation is provided in control room. The A.B.C.B. can be operated locally as well as from remote control (Control Room) depending on position of selector . 6.3 Isolators
knife switch and is designed to open a circuit under no load, under no current on line. The isolators are generally located at entrance of transmission line, after and before the circuit breaker. The isolators are opened with pneumatic driven. A notching device is also provided in pneumatic drive additionally to hold the operating rod extreme open or closed position. The ball catching locking device is provided at the top of the operating nod which holds the isolators in extreme on or off position. The above locking device avoids the chance of accidental opening of the isolator when the breaker is on isolator can be put on local or remote operation. 6.4 Lightening Arrestors

(2) Arrester is designed very compactly since it is free from time delay in discharging and does not require any inductance elements. (3) Abnormal voltage can not be induced between the transmission lines since Arrester is free from response deviation to impulse waves. Though Arrester is connected in series to a transmission line, it never affects normal operations of related instruments. The Lighting Arrestor is protective equipment against the over voltage on the transmission line. The causes of over voltages are as follows: Switching surges Insulation failure Arcing ground Resonance Lightning
6.5 Capacitive Voltage Transformer (C.V.T.) C.V.T. is installed at the entry of 220 KV line. The object of this equipment is to tap the high freq. wave and to give these waves in matching unit for communication purpose. Capacitive Voltage Transformers (CVTs) are common in high-voltage transmission line applications. These same applications require fast, yet secure protection. However, as the requirement for faster protective relays grows, so does the concern over the poor transient response of some CVTs for certain system conditions. Solid-state and microprocessor relays can respond to a CVT transient due to their high operating speed and if Creased sensitivity .This paper discusses CVT models whose purpose is to identify which major CVT components contribute to the CVT transient. Some surprises include a recommendation for CVT burden and the type of ferroresonantsuppression circuit that gives the least CVT transient. This paper also reviews how the System Impedance Ratio (SIR) affects the CVT transient response. The higher the SIR, the worse the CVT transient for a given CVT Finally, this paper discusses improvements in relaying logic. The new method of detecting CVT transients is more precise than past detection methods and does not penalize distance protection speed for close-in faults. 6.6 Wave Trapper

Variable-frequency drives are also known as adjustable-frequency drives (AFD), variable-speed drives (VSD), AC drives, micro drives or inverter drives. Since the voltage is varied along with frequency, these are sometimes also called VVVF (variable voltage variable frequency) drives. Variable-frequency drives are widely used. In ventilation systems for large buildings, variablefrequency motors on fans save energy by allowing the volume of air moved to match the system demand. They are also used on pumps, conveyor and machine tool drives. VFD system description: A variable frequency drive system generally consists of an AC motor, a controller and an operator interface.
