Standard Technical Features of BTG System for Supercritical 660/800 MW Thermal Units

b) The casing/ pent house and its supporting system shall be capable of
taking additional loads due to accumulations of ash upto 300 mm
height or actual expected (in between two overhauls of the units),
whichever is higher. This additional load is over and above other
loads considered for casing design. The ash density for the purpose
of ash loading shall be at least 1350 kg/m.
c) The pent house shall be provided with arrangement of fans for
cooling by supply of fresh air.

6.5.2 Pressure parts

i) Materials
The material used for Steam Generator components i.e. boiler pressure
parts including boiler tubing, headers, separators, piping, vessels, valves
& fittings etc. and other components shall be equal to or better than the
following unless specified otherwise:

Design metal temperature Material

a) Upto & including 4000C
b) Upto & including 5500C
c) Upto & including 6050C
d) Above 6050C
Carbon steel to ASME SA-106 Gr. B/C
or SA 210 Gr. A1/ Gr. C or equivalent.
Alloy steel to ASME SA-335: P-11/P-
12/P-22; ASME SA213:T-11/T-12/T22/
T23 or equivalent.
Alloy steel ASME SA-335/213:P-91/T-
91, T-92, or equivalent.
Austenitic stainless steel, Super 304H,
TP347H or equivalent.

ii) The design of all pressure parts (tubes, headers, separators, vessels etc.)
shall meet the requirements of Indian Boiler Regulations (IBR).

iii) Design pressure of the steam generator pressure parts shall be at least
1.05 times the maximum operating pressure, or as required by IBR/other
international codes, whichever is higher.

iv) The thickness of the pressure parts (steam and water tubes/headers,
separators, pressure vessels etc.) shall be calculated using IBR
formulae/factor of safety etc. (and not as per codes/formulae acceptable
to IBR). Minimum tube thickness at the bends in no case shall be less
than the minimum required tube thickness for the straight tubes. For this
purpose appropriate thinning allowance shall be considered while
calculating the thickness of the bends. Additional erosion allowance on
the calculated tube thickness shall be provided at specific locations as
specified.
