INRODUCTION

NTPC Limited is the largest Thermal power generating company of India. It is a public sector company, it was incorporated in the year 1979. Total installed capacity is 419.33 MW. NTPC Anta project is located about 23Km. from Baran district. Total NTPC (the coal & gas based) plant are 22 in our India.

COMBINED CYCLE It is a Gas Based Combined Cycle Power Project. It is not only the first Gas Power Plant of NTPC but also the beginning of an era of state of art Combined Cycle Power Plants in the country. Combined cycle power plant consist of two power conversion cycles: Bratyon cycle (gas-turbine) and Rankine cycle (steam-turbine)

Gas Turbine is a heat engine

The Process Includes

Compression : of working medium (air) taken from atmosphere in a compressor.

Combustion Increase of working medium temperature by constant pressure ignition of fuel in combustion chamber. Expansion of the product of combustion in a turbine.
Gas Turbine

Steam Turbine is a heat engine

The Process Includes

STEAM TURBINE CYCLE

Pressurisation :

boiler

of working medium (water) by Boiler feed water pump.

Steam turbine

Heating

Phase change of working medium (from water to steam) and superheating at constant pressure in Boiler.

Feed water pump

condenser

Expansion

of the steam in a turbine.

Steam turbine

Condensation

of the steam by cooling water.

ADVANTAGES OF GAS BASED PLANTS HIGH THERMAL EFFICIENCY LOW WATER REQUIREMENTS ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLINESS FAST START - UP LOW INSTALATION COST

lines for BHILWARA. One line for DOUSA. One line for KOTA. One line for RAPP. One line for SAWAI MADHOPUR.

WHAT IS FAULTS AND CAUSES

Faults simply means the defect. Faults are caused either by insulation failures or by conducting path failure. The failure of insulation results in short circuit which are very harmful as they may damage some equipment of the power system.

TYPES OF FAULTS

Symmetrical

Faults
Faults

Unsymmetrical

SYMMETRICAL FAULTS A 3- phase faults is called a Symmetrical Faults In 3-phase faults, all the 3-phase are short circuited. A 3-phase short circuit is generally treated as a standard fault to determine the system fault level

UNSYMMETRICAL FAULTS

Single phase to ground, two phase to ground, phase to phase short circuits, single phase open circuit two phase open circuit are unsymmetrical faults

TYPES OF SYMMETRICAL FAULTS

3-phase short circuited with ground

3-phase short circuited without ground

TYPES OF UNSYMMETRICAL FAULTS

Single phase to ground (L-G) fault Two phase to ground (2L-G) fault Phase to phase (L-L) fault

SIMMULTANEOUS FAULTS
Two or more faults occurring simultaneously on a system are known as multiple or simultaneous faults. In these types of faults, the same or different type of fault may occurred at the same or different points of the system.

EFFECTS OF FAULTS

Heavy short circuit current may cause damage to equipments. Arcs associated with short circuits may cause fire hazards. Due to faults reduction in voltage of feeders, resulting in the loss of industrial loads. There may be loss of system stability.
