Design Conditions and Performance Requirements. The condenser shall be designed in accordance with HEI Standards for steam surface condensers. Where the HEI Standards and this section of the SOW are at variance, this section shall control. The condenser shall maintain the backpressure required by the steam turbine guaranteed rating while operating with circulating water temperatures based upon cooling tower performance under design ambient conditions as specified in the Performance Data and guarantees. The condenser shall be capable of maintaining the backpressure and exhaust temperature within the permissible limits set by the turbine manufacturer while experiencing continuous operation of the steam turbine bypass system at maximum expected flow. The condenser design shall be capable of condensing full steam production from the HRSG HP, IP, and LP sections and shall maintain condenser pressure within the turbine manufacturer limits for operation. Contractor shall determine all circulating water uplift forces that affect foundation design. The uplift forces shall be determined with the discharge valve of one circulating water channel closed or all the discharge valves at the outlet shell closed so that the inlet waterbox uplift forces are based on circulating water pump shutoff pressure.
Design Conditions and Performance Requirements. The design capacity of each pump shall be determined according to the required capacity of the system and pressure in deaerator at maximum continuous rating of the unit. The design capacity of each pump shall be 50% of the maximum plant expected condensate flow to the deaerators plus 5% margin. In order to prevent damage at low flow operation beyond normal wear and tear and to obtain sufficient cooling flow through the gland steam condenser; the condensate line shall be provided with recirculation line for a safe minimum flow back to condenser. Each pump shall be suitable for direct connection to a vertical motor driver. The pumps shall be designed to operate continuously over the pump operating range without cavitation. Contractor shall provide Owner with pump performance characteristic curves on which total developed head, brake horsepower, required NPSH, and efficiency are plotted as functions of volumetric flow rate between shut-off and run-out. Total developed head and pump efficiency shall be defined in accordance with the Hydraulic Institute Standards. Contractor shall obtain a manufacturer's guarantee for the performance of the pumping equipment. The tolerances on the guaranteed performance shall be in accordance with the Hydraulic Institute Standards. Pump head curve shall rise continuously from best efficiency head point to shut-off. The pump shut-off head shall fall between 120 to 135 percent of the total head at the best efficiency point. The pumps shall be of the same model, manufacturer, and identical in construction so that replacement parts are interchangeable. The pump seal shall be designed for seal water injection with seal water supplied from the common pump discharge header during pump operation. The first pump to start will run momentarily without seal water injection. Contractor shall provide one (1) vertical electric motor as driver for each condensate pump. Suction strainers for each pump shall be supplied. The unit shall be arranged to facilitate inspection and maintenance. Motor head unit and inner assembly shall be readily removable without disturbing the pump can.
Design Conditions and Performance Requirements. The pump suction specific speed shall be sufficient to prevent cavitation under the Operating Conditions. The structural integrity of pumps, drivers, and accessories shall not be impaired by flow reversal through a pump, resulting from failure of its driver, with its discharge valve wide open and the remaining pumps operating. The pumps shall be suitable for outdoor locations. The sources, descriptions, and chemical analysis of circulating water and water available for bearings, seals, and cooling shall be provided to the pump manufacturer by the Contractor. Each pump shall be direct connected to an electric motor driver. The electric motors shall be furnished with non-reverse ratchets. Contractor shall prepare the pump performance characteristic curve on which total developed head, brake horsepower, and efficiency are plotted as functions of volumetric flow rate between shut-off and run-out. The minimum submergence for no cavitation shall also be plotted between the minimum flow rate and run-out. Total developed head and pump efficiency shall be defined in accordance with the Hydraulic Institute Standards. Contractor shall prepare torque-speed curves from zero to rated pump speed. These shall include starting against a closed discharge valve. The system-operating mode shall be arranged to start each pump against a closed discharge valve, which will open automatically as the pump comes up to speed.
Design Conditions and Performance Requirements. Maximum average pipe velocity shall not exceed 10 fps. Pipe shall be designed to withstand internal pressures, both operating and transient. Minimum design pressure shall be higher than both the pressure corresponding to the shutoff head of the pump and the minimum design pressure specified in the applicable piping standard. The piping system shall be designed to withstand all external loads; both with the pipe empty and in combination with internal pressure. Buried portions of pipe shall be capable of resisting internal pressure without backfill in place. Depth of the earth cover shall prevent floating of the empty pipe when ground water level is at its maximum level, but will be a minimum of 3 feet deep where buried. Pipe installed under traffic areas shall be designed to withstand HS20-44 truck loading.
Design Conditions and Performance Requirements. Each cooling tower shall be designed to dissipate the thermal load of the turbine and other auxiliaries for one Power Block and to provide the cold water temperatures consistent with Section Design Conditions. The cooling tower design shall be of mechanical induced draft, multicell, counterflow. Arrangement and orientation of the cooling tower(s) shall take into account prevailing winds. Cooling towers shall be designed to operate using untreated water from Lake Pat Mayse. The towers (including fill and its support system) shalx xx xxxxgned to include necessary features to prevent damage from freezing during operation under any mode. A manual control bypass system shall be provided to bypass return water directly to the cooling tower basin under freezing conditions.
