Introduction

This course is designed to improve participants’ knowledge concerning power system dynamics.
It introduces the principle components power plant fuel handling system, furnaces, boilers, turbines, and generators.
Emphasis will be laid on topics relevant construction, ratings installation and modeling of steam turbine and generator.
Principles of excitation and voltage control methods will be introduced. The Load Frequency and dynamic Control will be discussed.
During the course, an intensive investigation of the above-explained subjects will be conducted to the trainees.
Upon completion of the course the engineer/technician will be fulfilled and understand power transformer.
The course will be conducted through lectures, presentations, and practical examples through the different sessions.

Objectives

The course objectives are to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the equipment, operations, and control systems in a steam power plant.
By the end of the course, participants should be able to:
• Understand the fundamentals of steam power plant equipment, including power station design, characteristics of steam power plant, coal handling, fuel burning furnaces, and boilers and steam generation.
• Identify the different types of steam turbines and their principles of operation, performance, and testing.
• Explain the principles of operation, construction, and specifications of generators, including their types, voltage waveform, and cooling rating.
• Analyse the voltage and reactive power control systems in a steam power plant, including impedance and reactive power, excitation control, voltage regulation, and load compensation.
• Understand the load frequency and dynamic control systems in a steam power plant, including speed governing mechanism, load frequency control, and control strategy.
