Agenda

Situation today and tomorrow

Measures

HP stage bypass

Controlled HP feed water heaters bypass

HP feed water top heater

Combination of the measures

Conclusion

Facts about Germany’s power market 2011

Hard coal fired power plants

- operating in intermediate load range

- about 3.000 full load operating hours

- providing 19 %+ of electrical power

Renewables

- more than 64 GW+ renewable power installed


Lignite fired power plants

- providing base load- about 6.000 – 7.000 full load operating hours




.



Tomorrow

Tomorrow (Scenario 2020):

- renewables providing 35 %+ of electrical power

- increase of wind and solar power share

- existing base load will be reduced

This scenario intensifies the situation of thermal power plants.

The increase of electrical power production by renewables

- queries the classical fractions: base, intermediate and peak load

- renewable power and residual load remain

Power Output: 1040 MWMain Steam: 270 bar / 600 °C

Reheat Steam: 600 °C

Condenser: 0.053 / 0.042 bar

Fuel type: hard coal

HP stage bypass

HP stage bypass

10 % - 15 % main steam increase

about 50 MW - 70 MW additional output



.




Bypass control valve

Feed water control valve

- 30 minutes

- mbypass / mFW = 0.7

- 40 MW add. power



.




Feed water control valve

Controlled bypass for

HP feed water heaters

The Controlled HP feed water heaters bypass needs only small

adjustments of pipe routing in the turbine building.



.




Installation

- is fed with steam from HP stagebypass

Use

- is activated at part load

Objective

- final feed water temperature is kept

constant or even increased



.




Top heater concept serves for better part load efficiency.



.






.




The combination results in proposed design strategy.

Design point

HP stage bypass Controlled HP heaters bypassMS-T and FW-T increase



.



Conclusion

Proposed design strategy depends on plant load profile.

The described measures have to be adapted accordingly.

Ex = 76.75 %



.



Conclusion

The proposed design strategy requires measures to additionally improve

operating flexibility:

- Reasonable boiler design also with improved load change rates and

parking load concepts

- Control philosophy encompasses thermodynamical models

- Considering life time consumption



.



Conclusion

The proposed design strategy

- ensures lower OPEX by improved part load efficiency

- presents CAPEX reduction potential by smaller design

- introduced

- is not only for Germany but also it complies with world wide trend to

more renewable power

- the proposed design strategy can be adopted

Thank Your for Your attention.

Backup

HP stage bypass

The HP stage bypass avoids additional stop

valves by branching of between the turbine

stop valves and control valves.

A single HP bypass control valve

and small bore pipes are feasible.

The increased swallowing capacity keeps the main steam pressure

constant, with effects on feed water and steam systems as well as HPturbine design.
