Kurgan HPP-2 fan cooling tower installation is completed
15 Jule 2010
The fan cooling tower sections have been installed at the Kurgan HPP-2. The cooling tower frame, building panels and fans have been mounted within two months.
The FANS a.s. (Czech Republic) CTF 180/V fan cell-type cooling tower is designated for cooling the water used in the HPP equipment working process. It consists of 5 cells each of which is equipped with a fan. Cooling process is performed by means of water evaporation on special sprinklers where the open air stream is supplied to. Cooled water is fed from the sprinklers to a water tank wherefrom it is taken for the operation process needs. The CTF-type cooling towers differ from the existing countertypes by simple installation and operation, high efficiency and environmental properties.
Now, the gas and steam turbines with the load gears and generators are put on the foundations, installation in progress. Water heating boilers’ installation is coming to an end, HRSG #1 semi-modules are being mounted in the boiler room, coast pumping station and gas treatment one are being constructed. Piping stack installation has been started, GT boosting compressors, power transformers and open switchgear are being prepared for acceptance and installation. Plant heat power distribution scheme is being built involving 7.4 km main pipeline routing and its connecting to the existing heat tracing.
The Kurgan HPP-2 will comprise 2 power units, 111 MW each. Each power unit consists of the General Electric 76 MW PG 6111FA gas turbine, Siemens 35 MW SST-400 steam cogeneration turbine and HRSG. The HPP installed electric output is 222 MW, the heat power being 250 Gcal/h. The Kurgan HPP-2 construction will allow improving the Kurgan region power supply and provide conditions for social and economic development of the city and region.
