All of the above
Corrosion
Ultimate analysis
The Chemical composition of coal is given by Ultimate analysis.
V-belts
In a steam power plant, the coal is carried from storage to boiler generally by V-belts.
30 degree
Belt conveyor can be used to transport coal at inclination upto 30 degree.
30 Metres
The maximum length of a screw conveyor is about 30 Metres.
Coal accelerators
Coal broken into fine particles
Pulverized coal is Coal broken into fine particles.
Ball mill
Better burning
Pulverized fuel is used for Better burning.
The advantages of using pulverized fuel are Higher boiler efficiency, low air requirement and low fan power, Easy and complete combustion and Fast response to load changes and low banking losses.
Pulverised coal boilers
Any of the above
Dust can be separated from gas by Impingement upon small baffles, Sudden velocity decrease owing to enlargement and Abrupt changes of flow direction.
Electrostatic precipitator
Air pollution due to smoke around a thermal power station can be reduced by installing Electrostatic precipitator.
Collect the dust particles from the flue gases
The electrostatic precipitator is used in a coal-fired thermal power station to Collect the dust particles from the flue gases.
Air preheater and induced fan
Electrostatic precipitator is installed between Air preheater and induced fan.
Natural draught
The draught produced by a chimney is called the Natural draught.
