Kota Super Thermal Power Station (KSTPS) is located in Sakatpura, Kota, Rajasthan. It has a total installed capacity of 1240 MW across 6 units. The power plant uses stack coal as its primary fuel. Coal is transported to the plant via belt conveyors and handled through a coal handling plant. It is burnt in water tube boilers to produce steam, which then drives steam turbines that power generators to produce electricity. The steam is then condensed in a condenser using cooling water from the Chambal river. Fly ash and bottom ash from the boilers are disposed of through wet disposal systems. The plant has a 220kV switchyard to synchronize electricity production with the local

1. a seminar Report On Practical Training Undergone At “Kota Super thermal Power Station” Submitted to RAJASTHAN technical university For the partial fulfilment of the requirement of the degree of Bachelor of technology in (electrical engineering) 2011 submitted to: Submitted By : Er. Bharat Bhushan Jain Anil Singh (HOD of electrical Department) B.Tech. IV year AIET Roll No- 04 AIET Department of electrical engineering Arya institute of engineering and technology kukas, jaipur

2. Introduction of KSTPS In April 1973, Central Electricity Authority prepared a Project Report for power station comprising of the two units of each of capacity 110 MW The planning commission cleared the project report in Sept., 1976 for installation of two units each of 110 MW in first estimated cost of Rs. 143 Crores. These two units was manufactured by BHEL, Hyderabad.

7. GENERAL LAYOUT AND BASIC IDEA The conversion from coal to electricity takes place in three stages. Stage 1 The first conversion of energy takes place in the boiler. Coal is burnt in the boiler furnace to produce heat. Carbon in the coal and Oxygen in the air combine to produce Carbon Dioxide and heat. Stage 2 The second stage is the thermodynamic process. The heat from combustion of the coal boils water in the boiler to produce steam. In modern power plant, boilers produce steam at a high pressure and temperature. The steam is then piped to a turbine. The high pressure steam impinges and expands across a number of sets of blades in the turbine.

8. The impulse and the thrust created rotates the turbine. The steam is then condensed and pumped back into the boiler to repeat the cycle. Stage 3 In the third stage, rotation of the turbine rotates the generator rotor to produce electricity based of Faraday’s Principle of electromagnetic induction. Control system of station is based on Rankin Cycle. To increase the heat economy and efficiency we use number of modification in the plant.
