ABSTRACTCoal feeder is the main equipment in steam power plant which serves to adjust the flow rate of coal coming into the mill to be crushed. Disturbance in one of the coal feeder makes Pulverizer/Mill E supposed to operate in the event of an emergency must finally be in service status. The operation of Mill E will make a significant increase in Spray Superheater and Spray Reheater cause of overheat in the boiler convection area. Realized monthly NPHR generating performance is always different from the monthly Performance Test result due to the decreasing unit performance which comes from the increase of heat rate value that resulting in the increasing amount of coal consumption and the variability losses. To reduce the NPHR to make the plant more efficient then used NPHR calculation method that is heat losses method according to standard ASME PTC (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers Performance Test Code) with the number of parameters are more detail. So the calculated of value NPHR will have accuracy according to the actual condition. The purpose of this analysis is to analyze the performance of PLTU Labuan (Banten) which has a capacity of 2x300 MW throughout 2018 and compare it during normal conditions or when there is interference due to malfunction one of the components. The calculation of NPHR (Net Plant Heat Rate) by calculating Turbine Heat Rate, Boiler Efficiency, generator output power and self power consumption. The result of calculation with Heat Balance Method, plant has NPHR equal to 2604,190411 kcal/kWh with coal flow consumption equal to 187,38377414 Ton / h and boiler efficiency equal to 83,98% when Mill E in service and NPHR equal to 2562,130235 kcal / kWh with coal consumption equal to 178,208018 Ton/h and boiler efficiency equal to 84.23% when Mill E out service. It is known that NPHR when Mill E in service is greater than when Mill E out service which mean when Mill E operates a decrease in power plant performance and more wasteful coal consumption. With the calculation of Net Plant Heat Rate routinly and optimally can be done and fast performance can be selected.Keywords: Plant Heat Rate, NPHR, Heat Balance Method, PLTU, thermal energyABSTRAKCoal feeder merupakan peralatan utama pada PLTU yang berfungsi mengatur laju aliran batu bara yang masuk ke mill untuk dihaluskan. Coal feeder bertugas mengatur banyak sedikitnya batu bara sesuai dengan kebutuhan yang diinginkan, yakni besarnya daya yang ingin dibangkitkan dari suatu sistem PLTU. Gangguan di salah satu coal feeder membuat Pulverizer/Mill E yang seharusnya beroperasi saat darurat akhirnya harus berada dalam status in service. Beroperasinya Mill E akan membuat kenaikan yang signifikan pada Superheater Spray dan Reheater Spray akibat overheat di area konveksi boiler. Realisasi kinerja NPHR (Net Plant Heat Rate) bulanan pembangkit selalu berbeda dengan hasil Performance Test bulanan yang disebabkan oleh faktor penurunan perfoma unit akibat kenaikan nilai heat rate yang berakibat pada meningkatnya jumlah konsumsi batubara dan variability lossess. Untuk menurunkan NPHR agar pembangkit lebih efisien maka digunakan metode perhitungan NPHR yaitu metode heat losses yang sesuai standard ASME PTC (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers Performance Test Code) dengan jumlah parameter yang lebih banyak dan detail. Sehingga nilai NPHR hasil perhitungan akan memiliki keakuratan sesuai dengan kondisi sebenarnya. Tujuan dari analisa ini adalah untuk menganalisis kinerja PLTU Labuan (Banten) yang mempunyai kapasitas 2x300 MW sepanjang tahun 2018 dan membandingkannya saat kondisi normal maupun saat ada gangguan akibat tidak berfungsinya salah satu komponen. Perhitungan NPHR dilakukan dengan menghitung Turbine Heat Rate, Efisiensi Boiler, daya keluaran generator dan daya pemakaian sendiri. Hasil perhitungan dengan Metode Kesetimbangan Energi, pembangkit memiliki NPHR sebesar 2604,190 kcal/kWh dengan konsumsi batubara sebesar 187,383 Ton/h dan efisiensi boiler 83,98% saat Mill E in service dan NPHR sebesar 2562,130 kcal/kWh dengan konsumsi batubara sebesar 178,208 Ton/h dan efisiensi boiler 84,23% saat Mill E out service. Diketahui bahwa NPHR saat Mill E in service lebih besar dibanding saat Mill E out service yang berarti saat Mill E beroperasi terjadi penurunan performa pembangkit dan konsumsi batubara yang lebih boros. Dengan perhitungan Net Plant Heat Rate secara rutin dan berkala diharapkan kinerja dan performa pembangkit dapat selalu terpantau dan penyebab gangguan bisa cepat terdekeksi.Kata kunci : Plant Heat Rate, NPHR, Metode Kesetimbangan Energi, PLTU, efisiensi thermal

A model for the estimation of combustion losses in a pulverized fuel power plant boiler is presented. The model is based on the formulation of a probability density function which relates the probability of a fuel particle remaining unburnt to the combustion and resident times. An empirical model is also presented which relates the unburnt carbon loss to average particle size and excess air. The two models are shown to be in close agreement with each other. The models are validated from the experiments on a power plant boiler. The dependence of boiler efficiency on particle size and excess air is also examined and an empirical correlation between optimum excess air and particle size is derived. The mechanism of two-way coupling between boiler and turbine side parameters is also illustrated. It has been shown that the optimum excess air levels for maxima in plant heat rate and boiler efficiency are not the same, since the two-way coupling influences both the turbine heat rate and boiler efficiency. The effect of two-way coupling has been found to be more predominant for particle sizes of the order of 200 μm.

Abstract In a coal steam power plant, changes in coal quality significantly affect plant performance, especially in its boiler. A coal-fired power plant with a capacity of 400 MWe had been commissioned using coal with a calorific value of 5,242 kCal/kg. This study aims to determine the effect on unit performance and boiler efficiency due to changes in fuel use with the typical calorific value of 3,520 kCal/kg, 34,17% lower than the initial design. The performance tests were conducted using the heat loss method at loads: 50%, 65%, 75%, and 100%. The test result showed that using low-grade coal reduces boiler efficiency by 6.26%. There were four dominant boiler losses: heat loss due to moisture in dry flue gas, heat loss due to combustible in refuse, heat loss due to moisture in fuel, and heat loss due to hydrogen burning. Furthermore, the gross plant heat rate using low-grade coal was increased from 2,120 kCal/kWh to 2,718 kCal/kWh; however, the electric price becomes cheaper from 1.99 cent-USD/kWh becomes 1.31 cent-USD/kWh.

400 MW IGCC power plants were modeled by using commercial software GT PRO. The high pressure unsaturated water extracted from heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) was used to heat clean syngas to various temperatures. The influences of clean syngas preheating temperature on plant performances were investigated. Results showed that net power output and coal consumption both reduced with the increase of syngas preheating temperature, and coal consumption reduced to a larger extent. Moreover, when syngas preheating temperature increased, the net electric efficiency increased and the net heat rate decreased gradually. It was concluded that preheating clean syngas in a reasonable way was beneficial to improve the performances of IGCC power plant.

Abstract As it is well known, deposits in boilers contribute to boiler inefficiency, capacity reductions, and overheated tubes, which lead to tube failures. To improve the heat transfer inside the furnace the fouling deposits obviously should be removed. In order to take fouling into account in the overall furnace and boiler heat balance it is necessary to measure two main parameters — thickness of the deposits and their reflectivity (emissivity) in the wavelength of visible and IR region. In the present paper it is demonstrated how such measurement (see detailed description in Ref [1–3] can be used for on-line automatic sootblowing control. Results of our study demonstrate that dynamics of both parameters (contamination thickness and reflectivity) on the operated boiler can be registered in real time and then interpreted separately. The sootblowing boiler monitoring has been implemented at the 550 MW unit equipped with B&W opposite wall burners. The fouling and thickness sensors (FTR) were installed in different locations of the combustion chamber through its width and height. It was shown that dynamics of thickness and reflectivity variation just after the wall cleaning activation are quite different. Situations have been registered where changes of reflectivity have a significant impact on heat transfer, comparable and sometimes even greater than that of growing fouling thickness. Technique and device exploited in this study appears to be a very useful tool for sootblowing optimization and, as a result, for improvement of boiler efficiency and reduction of water wall erosion and corrosion. The paper presents a strategy to implement a comprehensive automatic control of soot blowing in power plant boilers. The paper will describe the existing installations where individual components are in operation, and describe an integrated system that could combine all these parts to make an integrated intelligent sootblowing system.

One of the most important aspects of American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Performance Test Code (PTC) thermal performance testing is the proper determination of test uncertainty since the Uncertainty Analysis (UA) validates the quality of a test as well as demonstrates that the test meets code requirements. It can also carry a commercial relevance when test tolerances are linked to uncertainty figures. This paper introduces an approach to the calculation of the random component of uncertainty when covariance exists between certain primary measurements in thermal performance testing. It demonstrates how to identify parameters that are co-variant, provides a methodology for properly calculating the aggregated random uncertainty of co-variant measurements, and discusses the effect of co-variance on UA results.
