COMBUSTION IN CFBC
BOILERS
•For a constant feed water inlet condition
and steam output, the amount of coal
required cannot be reduced below a certain
extent.
•Coal size available can’t be altered.
•In order to tend that minimum coal value,
we must have the best combustion i.e.
optimum air, time, temperature, turbulence.

Dense phase systems
•Using positive pressure the system generally utilises a
conveying vessel to collect the material before being
conveyed through the pipeline in batches.
•In dense phase system, a controlled use of air pressure and
volume pushes the batch of material from the vessel in to
pipeline in a plug flow form.

Islanding in power
system of CPP-An over
view
•Automatic isolation of CPP and
connected load from the grid
before reaching abnormal
frequency / voltage
Grid situations which call
for islanding are
•Under voltage in the grid
•Under frequency in the grid
•Over frequency in the grid
•Rate of fall of frequency below a
specified low frequency
Criteria for successful
islanding
•Automatic frequency based load
shedding prior to islanding, when the
CPP sent out is less than the
connected load. This will make CPP sent
out little excess of load and prevents
further fall of frequency after
isolation
•Spinning reserve during islanding
through HP bypass system. This will
take care of load fluctuation in
islanded condition.
•Change over of turbine from load
mode to frequency / speed mode
immediately after islanding. This
will keep frequency constant even
with small fluctuation of load.
•Maintaining stability in auxiliary
system of CPP after islanding with
close monitoring of control system.
•Higher size of captive system is
helpful in successful islanding. As
the size increases the system
inertia (H) increases and frequency
fluctuations are held to minimum.
•When the generation is in excess of load
islanding leads to rise in frequency. The
governor maintains the frequency by
switching over to speed mode. HPBP first
opening helps in maintains the steam
pressure leading to a stable system.
•In case of generation is less than the load
frequency/ voltage based load shedding is
assorted just before islanding. This leads
to export power condition and the CPP
isolates from the grid. This eliminates the
chance of frequency fall after islanding.
•At Hirakud automatic islanding in
combination load shedding is adopted
for
•Under-frequency
•Under –voltage
•Rate of fall of frequency
•Over Frequency

•Conclusion:The captive power plants does
need connectivity to the grid for reliable
power supply to captive load, but also
needs to insulate themselves from the
system threatening transients in the grid.
So a well designed algorithm for load
shedding, right selection of relays right
setting of the relays are very important.
Numerous field trials are normally
required before the islanding philosophy is
established.
