Changes in power

generation are being

driven by politics and

economics as well as

advances in technology.

The political imperative

to restrict carbon emissions is being felt

across the developed world, leading to

unprecedented investment in renewable

energy technologies.

New intermittent sources of power mean

that conventional thermal power plants must

operate more fexibly, which places additional

demands on processes and components. As

power generation technology evolves to meet

21st century requirements, rapid advances in

the feld of electronics have transformed the

reach and remit of central control systems.

A power station contains hundreds of

valves in a range of types and sizes, each

controlled by an actuator. Valves may be used

to stop and start fow, reduce or increase fow,

control the direction of fow, regulate a fow or

process pressure or relieve a pipe system of a

certain pressure.

The fundamental design of the valves

has not changed much in the last decades,

but the requirement to operate at increased

pressure, temperature and/or frequency

has been aided by advances in material

technology and manufacturing techniques.

The actuator is an interface between the

valve and the control system that wants the

valve to move at a specifc time or speed or

opening rate. Plant effciency requires that this

process is controlled as accurately as possible.

The basic design of the actuator a motor

mounted to a gearbox which drives the valve

has also not changed much in the last 30 to

40 years. What has changed is the control and

operations of the actuator which has been

transformed by continuing developments in

electronics.

Valves and actuators suited to the

demanding environments of a power station

are classifed by their level of complexity. The

simplest arrangement is an on/off actuator

for a valve that is either open or closed and

that operates infrequently. A Class B valve

can be shut, part-open or fully open and also

operates infrequently. Class C combinations

can provide frequent operation and

modulation while class D valves are required

to operate continuously. Older baseload

Valves & actuators

power plants in continuous operation relied

mainly on the lower class valves but modern

plants required to operate more fexibly rely on

more sophisticated modulating valves and

actuators.

Modern actuators can be monitored and

directed from distant control rooms and are

capable of collecting and transmitting a

host of operational data which informs both

production and maintenance requirements.

In line with many other components, the trend

is for an increase in the volume and type of

information exchanged.

Refning human machine interface

Developments in control systems have led

to a rapid increase in the range of data

available in the control room. Advances in

the interpretation and presentation of this

information have followed.

Steffen Koehler of SIPOS Aktorik, a global

supplier of electric actuators and part of

the AUMA Group, talked to PEi about the

companys approach to improving the human

machine interface (HMI) in its newly launched

SIPOS SEVEN electric actuator range.

He stresses that intelligent actuators need

to be selected and confgured for specifc

applications. His company was keen that

the product replicated the accessibility and

interfaces used in devices such as smart

phones.

Talking to control systems is almost like

talking different languages, but though we

are operating in an industrial environment,

technology has infltrated so many parts of our

lives that we all expect intuitive, state-of-the-art

interfaces.

The aim was to develop clear accessible

interfaces that can use be used by technicians

and non-specialists alike.We are talking user

friendly. That was one of the big motivations.

There used to be a lot of press buttons but we

decided to take a whole new look at this. We

considered touch screens but opted instead

for a big colour display with screens that are

easily understandable.

A large, programmable colour display

means that the customer can have an easily

read status screen. Different skins mean that

different software functions can be easily

viewed. Graphics, icons and animations

make it much easier for the user in front of the

machine to understand what they have to do.

The graphic displays can be used to

replace the instruction manual. They have the

additional advantage that they are available

in over 30 languages, including Chinese and

Arabic. The computer graphics will notably

come into their own during the complex

process of commissioning, showing the

sequence in clearly defned pictures.

The front end interface has been

researched and designed for maximum ease

of use. Extensive tests were carried out with

a usability centre for example eye trackers

were used to establish where people look

when they want information.

Discussions took place with sales people

from across the globe and customers and

colleagues from various plants were invited

to try out the software before the design was

fnalised. The aim was to design a front end

that would provide the information in an easily

accessible and appropriate format.

Ease of use extends beyond the control

room with a USB interface integrated into the

system so that information can be uploaded,

downloaded or copied directly to the actuator.

Everyone now is used to using a USB stick

or USB connection. If you want information

direct from the actuator you do not want to

have to have a special tool or computer you

want to go to it and use the USB stick. We have

integrated a USB interface which is accessible

from the outside and is submersible so that,

even if the actuator gets fooded, you dont

have a problem. If you want to change settings

and the actuator has not been connected

electrically to the mains power, you can use

a USB battery pack to enable you to make the

process control settings.

System integration

The primary function of an actuator has always

been to open and close the valve. However

development of increasingly sophisticated

control systems in combination with intelligent

actuators has introduced vital additional roles

for the actuator in communicating information

used for diagnostic and maintenance

purposes to the distributed control system

(DCS).

An actuator has different interfaces. The

mechanical interface with the valve defning

torque, fange size and output speed, and

its established engineering practices is

well documented. The interface with the

environment means meeting specifcations

and standards for vibration and temperatures

encountered, for example. The connection

with the DCS is provided by an electronic

interface for communications.

The family of industrial computer network

protocols used for real-time distributed control

is called feldbus. This was designed to replace

point-to-point links between feld devices such

as actuators and their control systems with a

digital single link capable of transmitting all

the information.

Intelligent actuators have more capability

than traditional actuators and can provide

diagnostic information to monitor conditions

and help diagnose and locate device faults.

Integrating feldbus into such actuators

enables the devices to provide additional

benefts such as remote diagnosis but also

remote device confguration and testing.

In modern power plants a large number

of different data and information packages

need to be exchanged between control

systems and feld devices. Reliable and

smooth system integration is vital to ensure the

communication protocols and data interfaces

operate accurately.

Valves & actuators

and standards were internationally agreed,

the frst protocols were devised by companies

pressing ahead with their own designs. A

few of these are still in use, but they exist as

closed and proprietary systems, relying on

one dedicated single supplier. Manufacturers

and operators are converging on the use

of standardised systems which are being

increasingly used worldwide. This gives end

users and consultants freedom of choice of

suppliers.

System integration of communication

protocols has become a key issue when

customers select actuator suppliers for

modern plant installations. It is no longer

just the mechanical design that matters:

system integration is centred on effective

communication between the actuator and

the host system and suppliers ability to ensure

this capability is increasingly important.

As a global supplier of electric actuators

with a strong reputation for providing

comprehensive integration support, AUMA

is well placed to comment on actuation

advancements.

Werner Laengin, senior product manager

for Fieldbus Systems at AUMA, says: Power

stations tend to be in service for up to 50

years. Technology needs to be available as a

long-term solution. We recommend using only

standardised solutions, as these are supported

by a vast number of vendors worldwide.

He explains: We always take into account

standardised feldbus protocols and DCS

integrations that ensure inter-operability

with feld devices. Standardised solutions

use feldbus protocols such as PROFIBUS,

DeviceNet or HART. Taking the example of the

HART interface, this combines conventional

420 mA wiring with additional digital

communication, which makes it possible to

have a combination of conventional wiring

with digital communications.

He cites the advantages of standardised

systems. Operators can use and mix

different suppliers devices; operational

expertise can be found throughout the

world and communications protocols ensure

interoperability with other devices.

Comprehensive testing

Ensuring that new devices are interoperable

requires implementation testing to ensure

they meet specifcations before submission for

registration. Often a dedicated DCS integration

is added to the control system. For example,

the standardised

EDDL (Electronic

D e v i c e

Description

Language) is one method used to describe

a units parameters and minimum and

maximum values for diagnosis of a feld

device.

An EDD is basically an ASCII text fle which

can be read by an EDDL interpreter which

then presents the feld device diagnosis

or parameter information on the central

maintenance screen.

Laengin refects on the process required to

ensure harmony in confgurations within the

DCS system and the feld devices.

The current interpretation of EDDL

language varies slightly between different

interpreters. Therefore we tend to recommend

dedicated integration tests in order to ensure

that once things come together, there is

fawless device integration. Flawless device

integration of each and every parameter, of

each and every menu, of each and every

maintenance and diagnostic information is

essential in order to ensure there is no issue

when it comes to commissioning.

With increasing amounts of intelligence

included in feld devices, DCS integration is a

fast moving feld.

Laengin is excited by the possibilities.

Smart actuators can trigger alarms on

minimum or maximum readings. Increasing

intelligence means they can also interpret

their own history.

They not only count the number of switch

offs or the number of open and close cycles,

they are also able to record the environmental

conditions, the torque applied to the valve

and are able to make interpretation of

availability for the future. They can make an

indication about which kind of maintenance

has to be done at which time for the specifc

application.

Maintaining continuity

The operational life of a power station can

be measured in decades, with thermal and

nuclear stations remaining in production for

as many as 50 years. Operators are keen to

extend the life of existing thermal and nuclear

stations where this is feasible.

Rapid developments in electronics have

driven advances in control systems and state-

of-the-art actuator/valve combinations are

now installed in new plants.

However it may not be appropriate to

retroft these devices to an established

plant. A lot of the control systems in older

power stations may not be suited to modern

electronic systems and the best course of

action might be to overhaul and refurbish the

original electro/mechanical valve actuators

to maintain plant continuity.

Weir Engineering Services actuator

workshop in Alloa, Scotland, is an engineering

centre of excellence that provides services

to the power generation sector, including

the refurbishment and upgrade of valve

actuators which may have been in operation

for decades.

Workshop supervisor Phil Russell explains:

We see many actuators which were originally

supplied in the mid 1960s and have been

in service ever since. During 40 odd years

of operation some have already taken

advantage of overhaul and service exchange

programmes, some have been partially

maintained, and others may not have been

maintained at all.

Electro/mechanical actuators consist of a

gearbox with an electric motor and electrical

switchgear. Such actuators were often

supplied to power stations with a design life of

25-30 years as ft and forget items. Soft parts

such as oil seals and O rings had a useable

shelf life of between 10 and 15 years but in

many cases there were no recommended

service intervals for the actuator. Weir is

confdent that a major overhaul meets the

aspirations of any life extension programme

by returning the actuator to the customer in

an as new operational condition.

Operators of the older nuclear feet have

a general understanding that remaining with

the original design intent is less problematic

than retroftting an equivalent because

design and engineering change is not

required and controls and HMI interfaces are

not compromised.

When comparing the cost of overhauling

an existing unit with the supply and retroftting

of an equivalent unit of different design, the

apparent cost beneft of the new unit is often

outweighed by the cost of the technical

justifcation, installation and plant control

system alterations.

Phil Russell sees a great opportunity for

re-energising old installed product rather

than replacing with a different design.A WES

workshop refurbishment involves a full strip

down, evaluation of any damaged or obsolete

components, upgrade to the current design

specifcation, rebuild and test. As much of the

original electrical equipment is now obsolete,

we will either perform a complete re-wire and

ft all new electric components or leave the

wiring looms intact and just ft new electrics.

A power station may have hundreds of

electric actuators installed. Russell says in a

traditional power station this is made up of

four or fve main different types, each with

any number of sub types, amounting to 30-40

different actuators with minimal differences.

One way we have been looking at keeping

up with reduced customer outage times is by

offering service exchange programmes. A

pool of new, spare or

reclaimed actuators

is available. We

dont need to keep

30 different spare

actuators in stock

as the appropriate

model can be easily

selected from a

smaller pool and

confgured for a

specifc application

to ft a plant where a

requirement has been

identifed.

The actuator(s)

can be prepared

ahead of an outage

or maintenance

window which

means that instead

of removing a faulty

actuator and trying

to fx and replace it

in a tight time-frame,

the unit can simply

be exchanged which

may take as little as

two to three hours.

The unit that comes

off is returned to us for refurbishment and then

goes back into the pool of spare actuators in

preparation for future use.

Keeping pace with technology

The basic design of valves and mechanical

actuators is established, but as power plant

technology moves forward, devices must be

designed to operate more accurately, more

fexibly and under central rather than local

control.

Devices must operate with precision and

speed in the increased temperatures and

pressures found in big modern plants.

Actuators and valves are an essential and

established component in power plants. As

power plants evolves to operate with greater

fexibility and effciency, developments in

electronics will play a key role in enabling state

of the art actuators to keep pace.

and power generation.

Should the boiler on a power plant

run dry, or the turbine blades be

damaged by water induction,

the outcome will be dramatic

and highly expensive.

Repairing such damage to

a power plant can take months, if not years,

to complete and can cause plant downtime

costing millions in lost production and income.

Modern boilers used in power generation

are designed to provide clean dry steam.

On top of the boiler sits a vessel known as

a steam drum. It is here that the steam/water

level is monitored. If the level is too high it can

generate wet steam, which may in turn lead to

turbine blade erosion.

If the level is too low, the boiler tubes can

overheat, with the very real danger of a plant

explosion. This may sound like dramatic stuff,

but it highlights the need for safety devices in

this type of application.

All national legislatures require monitoring

and indication of feed water levels in steam

generation plants. Drum level indication is

normally indicated both locally to the drum

and remotely in the control room where the

plant engineers will carry out an emergency

shutdown should the conditions require it.

Very accurate monitoring of these points

needs to take place to avoid false alarms

that could force a plant to shut down with a

potential signifcant loss of revenue.

Traditional approach

Traditionally, sight glasses (water gauges)

were ftted to the boiler drum. However, these

can suffer from reliability issues, requiring

intensive maintenance programmes.

The drum is normally well away from the

control room, meaning that a secondary form

of surveillance equipment is needed to report

the level back to the engineering team. For

these devices to be used effectively they must

be monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Mechanical/optical methods are regularly

used for measuring levels within vessels, but

the drawback with such devices is that they

are susceptible to wear, and therefore also

need regular checking and maintenance.

This increases maintenance costs and

with 24/365 operation, downtime for such

maintenance is not always possible, leading to

insuffcient checks and subsequent reliability

issues. Sight glasses are still in use today, but

only as the fnal verifcation method of drum

level if all other methods are unavailable.

The power industry therefore demanded

reliable dual redundant technology and

customer-led development saw the birth of

electronic steam/water gauging systems.

Emerson was at the forefront of this

technology. Its Hydrastep system is seen by

many as an industry standard and is used

widely to monitor and control water levels

within boilers.

These systems consist of a number of

electrodes installed within a water column

attached to the boiler. The electrodes act as

the seeing eye above and below the normal

water level.

Electrodes are arranged on each side of

the column and connected to an electronics

unit by separate specialist cables.

This arrangement provides redundancy

against failure in any part of the system. The

principal of measurement is fairly simple.

The electronics are constantly looking for a

change in resistance with respect to ground.

A step change in resistivity between two

adjacent electrodes identifes the water level.

The important thing for the end user is

to be able to set alarms and trips to aid the

operations teams.

Alarm relay outputs deliver high- and low-

level alarm indications or trips. Local and

remote displays provide operators with high

visibility of boiler levels.

Boiler maintenance

Boiler damage can be hugely costly, both in money and time. Employing a suite of protection systems can prevent unnecessary downtime, writes Robin Hudson

Boiler maintenance


An alarm/trip also occurs should a fault

occur within the system or its associated wiring

or power supply. This fault-tolerant operation

eliminates the need for routine testing. Fault

conditions are also shown on the displays.

The reliability of these systems can be

dependent upon the quality of the water

in the system. Whilst this is usually clean, the

presence of dirty water can foul the electrodes.

However, in more sophisticated systems this will

not cause a fault or a trip.

Turbine damage

Water ingress into steam turbines may

have catastrophic consequences and it is

essential that automatic protection devices

are in place to prevent this occurring. Even a

small amount of water can cause enormous

damage to the turbine blades, the cylinders

and the housing. There is very little chance

of an operator assessing a deteriorating

situation quickly enough to judge whether or

not water, water droplets or fash steam are

present in bled steam lines. This is complicated

by the fact that a manually initiated trip of the

turbine may further aggravate the situation, as

the decay of pressure in the turbine stages to

vacuum can potentially cause reverse fow.

Water can also reach the turbine from

various feedwater plant sources and under a

number of operating conditions.

For example, if the water level is too high

in either the high-pressure or low-pressure

feedheater, which would be caused by tube

leaks or the failure of the drainage system.

A high water level in the de-aerator is

another potential source. If there is a mismatch

between the infow and outfow the vessel can

food. In each of these cases the water may

fow, via the bled steam lines and against the

steam fow, towards the turbine.

Un-drained bled steam lines are yet

another source. Wet steam can deposit water

on the pipework walls, and condensation

can occur at bends in the pipework and

at valves. Condensation is also a problem

during startup when the steam lines are being

warmed.

If a unit trip occurs or there is a sudden load

reduction, this can result in a pressure reversal.

During a trip, the high pressure (HP) turbine

pressure decays rapidly and the intermediate/

low pressure (IP/LP) falls to condenser vacuum

almost immediately. In contrast, the pressures

in the feed system change relatively slowly.

Large pressure differentials are created, which

will tend to stimulate fow towards the turbine

from the feed system.

Reverse steam fow in the bled steam

lines can potentially carry water from heaters

or un-drained low points to the turbine with

consequential damage. Water ingression

is not only a problem when the turbine is

at operating speed; water fowing onto hot

cylinders while the turbine is on turning gear

can cause severe chilling with distortion or

cracking of the cylinders.

Turbine water induction protection

The different resistive properties of steam and

water may also be exploited in turbine water

induction prevention (TWIP) systems.

By installing electrodes in steam lines and

measuring the resistance, the unwanted

presence of water can be detected, allowing

the appropriate safety measures to be taken.

An electronic water detection system, such

as Emersons Hydratect, provides high levels

of reliability for detection of water or steam in

lines.

Each electrode is specifed as being either

normally in steam or normally in water. An

alarm/trip output is given should the electrode

detect a not normal condition. Steam

normal is used for high water level detection

in steam drums, feedheaters and in turbine

water induction prevention systems on steam

lines. Water normal is used for low water level

detection. A level switch installed on the drain

pot in the super-heated steam line will detect

the level of condensed water and operate a

drain valve, protecting the turbine.

Reliability

For applications requiring the detection of

either steam or water, resistivity measurement

is a proven technique. Using an electronic

method to indicate water level or differentiate

between the presence of steam or water

offers a very high level of system self-checking

and integrity compared to mechanical

methods since there are no moving parts. This

greatly reduces the requirement for routine

maintenance.

Protection is critical to plant safety, but false

trips are also a major issue, so any system

must not just be completely reliable when it

comes to detection and prevention of water

in turbines, it must also prevent nuisance trips

that reduce plant effciency and throughput.

The probability of Emersons Hydrastep missing

an actual trip is less than 1 in 300 million. The

probability of creating a nuisance trip is less

than 1 in 10 million.
