Overview of Thermal Power Plant Systems

This document provides an overview of power plants and distributed control systems (DCS). It first introduces power plants and describes how they generate electricity from raw materials like coal. It then explains the basic processes of energy conversion from coal to steam to mechanical to electrical energy. Next, it discusses the components of a DCS, how it functions, and its advantages like speed, reliability, and ability to incrementally grow. Finally, it lists some common applications of DCS systems in areas like power generation, manufacturing, and infrastructure control.

UNIT OVERVIEW

DCS A

system supplied by BHEL

control system which is functionally as well as physically distributed is called distributed control system

Internals of the DCS

Hardware: Console/Computers DCS MODULES Cables Software: Advance Control Strategy Schemes Alarm module Database management module Diagnostic suite

Working of DCS

Hardware flow:

Software

flow

Advantages

Speed Reliability Open System. Incremental growth

Applications
Electrical power grids and electrical generation plants Environmental control systems Traffic signals Radio signals Water management systems Oil refining plants Chemical plants Pharmaceutical manufacturing

With

DCS the control engineer has the opportunity to go beyond the narrow limitation of standard analog control components
quest to maintain and control various instruments and monitor extreme critical values can be fulfilled using Distributed control system.
