Circulation in Boiler The steam generator has to produce steam at highest purity, and at high pressure and temperature required for the turbine. Water must flow through the heat absorption surface of the boiler in order that it be evaporated into steam Natural circulation is the ability of water to circulate continuously, with gravity and changes in temperature being the only driving force known as "thermal head“.
The ratio of the weight of water to the weight of steam in the mixture leaving the heat absorption surfaces is called Circulation Ratio.
Cold feedwater is introduced into the steam drum where, because the density of the cold water is greater, it descends in the 'downcomer' towards the lower bottom ring header, displacing the warmer water up into the front tubes. Continued heating creates steam bubbles in the front tubes, which are naturally separated from the hot water in the steam drum, and are taken off. 26 May 2012

Criticality of Drum Level control • Boiler drum level control is critical for both plant protection and equipment safety and applies equally to high and low levels of water within the boiler drum.The purpose of the drum level controller is to bring the drum up to level at boiler start-up and maintain the level at constant steam load. A dramatic decrease in this level at constant steam load. A dramatic decrease in this level may uncover boiler tubes, allowing them to become overheated and damaged. An increase in this level may interfere with the process of separating moisture from steam within the drum,

Forced Circulation However, when the pressure in the water-tube boiler is increased, the difference between the densities of the water and saturated steam falls, consequently less circulation occurs. To keep the same level of steam output at higher design pressures, the distance between the Bottom ring header and the steam drum must be increased, or some means of forced circulation must be introduced. Therefore natural circulation is limited to boiler with drum operating pressure around 175 Kg/cm2. 26 May 2012

Natural Circulation & Forced Circulation Natural Circulation The downcomer contain relatively cold water, whereas the riser tube contain steam water mixture ,whose density is comparitively less .this density difference is the driving force ,for the mixture. (thermo-siphon principle) Circulation takes place at such a high rate that the driving force and frictional resisitance in water wall are balanced.
Natural Circulation
Forced Circulation
Forced Circulation Beyond 180 Kg/cm2 of pressure, circulation is to be assisted with mechanical pumps, to overcome frictional losses. To regulate the flow through various tubes, orifice plates are used. This system is applicable in the high sub-critical regions (say 200 Kg/cm2). 26 May 2012

Why controlled circulation is required? • AS THE PRESSURE INCREASES,THE DIFFERENCE IN DENSITY BETWEEN WATER AND STEAM REDUCES . • THUS THE HYDROSTATIC HEAD AVAILABLE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO OVERCOME THE FRICTIONAL RESISITANCE FOR A FLOW CORRESPONDING TO THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT OF COOLING OF WATER WALL TUBES. • NATURAL CIRCULATION 26 May PMI Revision 00 IS2012 LIMITED TO 175KSC

Nucleate boiling, DNB and Film Boiling • Boiling is the formation of vapor bubbles at the heating surface. These bubbles form at nucleation sites whose number and location depend upon the surface roughness or cavities, fluid properties, and operating conditions. The boiling heat transfer coefficient is very sensitive to the temperature difference.PMI Revision 00 26 May 2012

Economiser Boiler Economiser are feed-water heaters in which the heat from waste gases is recovered to raise the temperature of feed-water supplied to the boiler.

Economiser • The economizer preheats the feed water by utilizing the residual heat of the flue gas. • It reduces the exhaust gas temperature and saves the fuel. • Modern power plants use steel-tube-type economizers. • Design Configuration: divided into several sections : 0.6 – 0.8 m gap

Type of Construction • Plain Tube : Several banks of tubes with either-in-line or staggered type formation. Staggered arrangement induces more turbulence than the in-line arrangement. This gives a higher rate of heat transfer and requires less surface but at the expense of higher draught loss. • Welded Fin-tube : Fin welded design is used for improving the heat transfer.
