The main function of control of MCS

1.CCS
2.BM(Boilre master or boiler main control)
3.TM(Turbine master or turbine main control)
The function of CCS
1. Forming the load instruction of the unit
2. Frequency modulation
3 Load instruction limitation
4. Runback
5. Run-up or Rundown
6. The operation of BOILER MASTER,TURBINE
MASTER under BASE MODE,
BOILER FOLLOW, TURBINE FOLLOW AND CCS
MODES.
7. The Switch of BASE mode BOILER
FOLLOW,TURBINE FOLLOW and CCS
mode.
1.CCS
Basically to control internal parameter’s of unit like (1) M S Pre. (2)
Load. Also to coordinate sensitive turbine and slow restore of
boiler auxiliaries good for network and unit stability. Both Boiler
and Turbine control ON Auto.

CCS MODE: The power instruction of frequency reg directly act

on both steam turbine and boiler control system .First it change
the opening of control valve, with in range of allowable variation of
pr by using of boiler accumulation energy it improve the load
response speed, mean while it change the fuel quantity with
change of boiler out put the throttle pr maintain constant.

The load demand setpoint is used as feed forward signal for the
fuel and air flow setpoint in a proportional and rate manner.

2) BFM:
Boiler follow turbine. Turbine on Load control- Boiler ON
Auto-control pressure with BLI as feed forward. MW
demands are met by Turbine firstly and lesser importance
to unit stability. (Pr fluctuation is more)

Boiler follow mode (pr control by boiler): when steam

turbine control system receive the instruction of frequency
regulation to increase the load set point first of all its turn
up the steam control valve. With increase the generator
power then the increase of steam flow will decrease the
throttle pressure. At this point the boiler control system can
detect such a variation, and then it send signal to the fuel
control Valve to increase the charge of fuel which will finally
keep the throttle pr constant

3) TFM: Turbine follow Boiler. Boiler Master on manual
mode. Turbine maintains pressure by varing MSCV the
MW depends on steam output from boiler Best for unit
stability .(Pr is constant)

Turbine follow mode: (pr control by turbine ) when

boiler control system receive the instruction of frequency
regulation to increase the load set point, first of all it will
turn up the fuel control valve. With the increase of the
fuel, the throttle pr and steam flow will increase and as a
result the generated power will increase. For the purpose
of keeping the throttle pr as constant, the steam control
system adopt a steam pr feedback system which can
change the control valve opening and increase the
steam flow and finally keep pr constant.

RUNDOWN
Equipment is at its maximum capacity, the process
variable less than set point and corresponding control loop
error is excessive.
Some condition are
1. Feed water instruction is at upper limit but the actual
feed water flow rate is lower than value by allowable
deviation.
2. Fuel instruction is at the upper limit but the actual fuel
is lower than setting value allowable deviation.
3. FD Fan instruction is at upper limit but actual air flow is
lower than the setting value by allowable deviation.
4. ID Fan instruction is at upper limit but actual furnace pr
higher than the setting value by allowable deviation.
(THE RESULT OF RD IS TO MAKE THE ULD
DECREASE AT SOME RATE THIS CAN REDUCE THE
PROCESS VARIABLE OF THE EQUIPMENT )
RUNUP
Equipment is at its minimum capacity, process variable
is greater than set point the and the corresponding
control loop error is excessive
(VICE VERSA)
7) UNIT CAPABILITY:
Capability to produce MW at that instant, signal depends
on the number of auxiliaries in service and their
contribution is expressed as MW signal, which they can
support.

2.BM (Boilre master or boiler main control)

A.Bolier instruction Under CCS mode.

The actual ULD will be sent into boiler main control as
the feed forward signal to form the boiler main control
instruction.

B. Bolier instruction Under BFM mode.

When the boiler main control is in auto mode and

steam turbine main control is in manual mode, the
pressure deviation signal amended by ULD will be sent
to boiler main control, for PI operation. The main steam
flow rate signal will be sent into boiler main control as the feed
forward signal to form the boiler main control instruction.
C.Bolier instruction Under BASE mode.

In the BASE mode, boiler main control is in the manual

mode, operator can change the main instruction
through station “S”.

Boiler main control will switch to manual mode when

1. Two FD fans are in manual mode
2. Fuel rate main control is in manual mode
3. Fault in main steam pressure signal
4. Fault in main steam flow rate signal
3.TM(Turbine master or turbine main control)

A. Steam Turbine instruction under CCS

The actual ULD will be sent into steam turbine main control as
the feed forward signal to form the steam turbine main control
instruction.

B. Steam Turbine instruction under TURBINE FOLLOW mode

When the boiler main control is in manual mode and the steam
turbine main control is in automatic mode and the main control is
controlling the throttle pressure, the pressure deviation signal
amended by ULD will be sent to steam turbine main control, for PI
operation.
C. Steam Turbine instruction under BASE mode
The steam turbine main control is in manual mode, operator can
set the steam turbine valve position instruction through “N”
station.
 STEAM TURBINE MAIN CONTROL WILL SWITCH TO
MANUAL MODE WHEN
1. Steam turbine trips.
2. DEH exits from remote mode.
3. Fault in main steam pressure signal.
4. Main steam pressure deviation exceed limitation.
5. Valve position instruction deviation exceed
limitation.
