In the Rankine cycle, heat is added reversibly at a constant pressure but at infinite temperatures. If Tm1 is the mean temperature of heat addition as shown in Fig. 6, then the area under 4 and 1 is equal to the area under 5 and 6. Then, we found the efficiency of this cycle is Rankine = 1 – (T2/Tm1), Where T2 is the temperature of heat rejection. The lower is the T2 for a given Tm1, i.e. lower is the condenser pressure, and the higher will be the efficiency of the Rankine cycle. But, the lowest practicable temperature of heat rejection is the temperature of surroundings, T0. The saturation pressure corresponding to this temperature T0 is the minimum pressure to which steam can be expanded in the turbine. This being…show more content…
Coal from the coalbunkers is fed to the pulverizer through a coal feeder. FEEDER Here gravimetric feeder is used to feed the coal to the mill. in this type of feeder give accurate mass flow rate of the coal may be bulk density or volume may be changed. here the coal flow rate is obtained by R=MXN R=MASS FLAW RATE M=MASS OF THE COAL ON UNIT LEANTH OF FEEDER BELT The gravimetric resembles a belt feeder in the coal conveying aspect but provided with precise weighing system to measure the mass of coal per unit length of belt which is multiplied by the speed of belt to determine the rate of coal flow. The weighing can be done by either mechanical or electrical device. Fig 4.4: Gravimetric Feeder Here 5 feeders are used (A, B, C, D, E) to feed the mills. Each mill is feed by each feeder. Coal Feeders: a) Number of feeders : 5 x 33.33% b) Type : Gravimetric feeder c) Capacity : 28 t/h d) Gear Box ratio : 213 : 1 e) Motor speed : 1450 rpm Fig…show more content…
when coal fall on the bowl from middle pipe and outward direction and coal take entry in middle gap of roller & bowl (initial gap=5mm).20mm sized coal take entry between the gap by uplifting the roller forcefully so the spring assembly (in journal head is compressed & give a reaction impact on the coal & due to the rotation of bowl roller also rotated in opposite direction so a attrition is also given to the coal. Due to this two effect coal is pulverized and conveyed to the coal burner through PA produced from lower side of the
