CMC
(COORDINATED MASTER CONTROL)
CMC ensure proper coordination between Auxiliaries, boiler and turbine to attain efficient and safe running of the plant. (1) CMC coordinated mode (2) BOILER follow mode- Boiler follow turbine (3) Turbine follow mode- Turbine follow Boiler (constant Pr. Mode)
CMC coordinate sensitive turbine & slow response boiler & Auxiliaries. Limited with help of turbine control (EHC) and TSE. CMC Boiler master on Auto Turbine master on Auto Unit master - Receiving load demand from ALDC or Manually from desk.
1)
CMC:
Basically to control internal parameters of unit like (1) M S Pressure, (2) Load. Also to coordinate sensitive turbine and slow response of boiler auxiliaries, Good for network and Unit stability. Both Boiler and Turbine control ON Auto. 2) BFM:
Boiler follow turbine. Turbine on Load control- Boiler ON Autocontrol pressure with BLI as feed forward. MW demands are met by Turbine firstly and lesser importance to unit stability. 3) TFM:
Turbine follow Boiler. Boiler Master on manual control. Pressure control. Turbine maintains pressure by varying MSCV ,Unit load depends on steam output from boiler Best for unit stability
RUNBACK MODE.
under runback conditions the firing for the boiler must be reduced to preset values, as close as possible to the tolerable limits. Therefore the swings of firing rate caused by the action of the PID controller must be avoided. As consequence of this condition the system has to switched to pure feed forward to control where the firing rate set point is directly proportional to load capability signal. To avoid any mismatch between steam production of the boiler and the turbine load turbine has to be switched to initial pressure control.

RUNBACK:
In R/B mode boiler controls give command in proportion to unit capability. Turbine Pre. Control. R/B mode sets in automatically.

07) UNIT CAPABILITY: Capability to produce MW at that instant, W.C signal depends on the number of auxiliaries in service and their contribution is expressed as MW signal, which they can support.
08) FGMO:
Free Governing mode of operation Intro duce critical external parameter i.e. freq. of network to our control system. To ensure stability of network or grid it is necessary to have frequency regulation in CMC/EHC. But frequency is network parameter, which cannot be controlled by few units in the network. Total disturbance in network will be passed on to the units having regulation by the many units do not have regulation.

BOILER FOLLOW MODE
1. Turbine on load control 2. Boiler master on Auto-controls throttle steam Pressure with steam flow as feed forward. Varying fuel I/P (firing rate) in the furnace. In this mode boiler has to supply the steam for whatever load has been set from Turbine desk. In this way if the throttle steam reaches a limit (10 kg below the set throttle steam Pr.) limit Pr. Engaged condition comes and load would be scarified to maintain/restore the throttle steam Pr.
SELECTION OF BOILER FOLLOW MODE ( BFM)
1. Put air control on auto (at least one FD fan) 2. Put feeders speed control on auto after varying fuel master(FM) output and making feeder speed controller error zero. 3. Vary Blr. Master O/P so that FM error becomes zero. Then put FM on auto.
4. Make throttle pr. Set point and actual pr. Difference zero.
5. Put BM on auto. If unit in turbine follow or coordinated mode change over to boiler follow occurs under following condition :turbine goes to manual because of any reason or operator action Pr CMC - Pr Lim > 60MW
TURBINE FOLLOW MODE: -
1. Boiler manually controlled 2. Turbine master On Auto -controls throttle steam Pre. (With steam flow as feed forward) by varying load.
In T.F.M Pr. Controller comes into picture and the throttle Steam Pre. Varies the opening of MSCV to maintain the set throttle steam Pre.

SELECTION OF TURBINE FOLLOW MODE ( TFM)
1. Boiler master on manual.
2. Throttle pressure deviation zero. 3. Turbine in auto. 4. Press. Turbine flow push button along with manual release on CMC desk and turbine goes to initial pressure mode from LMT mode by itself. 5. Now load set point can be changed by varying the boiler master manually.
O2 TRIM -
A section station and a setter for oxygen set point are provided to achieve the desired excess air. If variable O2 set point (SP) is selected, set point is generated by a function generator which is a function of max ( air flow SP and total air flow). In other mode SP is set from UCB. O2 in flue gas is compared with this SP and error is fed to PI controller, output of which is limited between 0.8 and 1.2% of total air flow.
Pressure Correction in CMC
Under normal operating conditions including small load (pressure) variation boiler and turbine are controlled independently as per set point from GNI. Any unbalance in power generation and power consumption due to frequency variation in FGMO , throttle pressure may increase or decrease which may cause dangerous condition in the boiler. If DP (Set throttle pre.- Actual throttle pre.) variation goes below set point ( - ve pressure deviation) , boiler storage capacity is used. However, any large variation in throttle pressure shall restrict the Turbine output till the Boiler has produced the additional output to match the increased demand. Similarly in case of +ve pressure deviation turbine output will increase.
MW Note:THROTTLE PRESSURE (DP) correction starts at +/- 1Kg and acts upto +/- 2Kg. It will add or subtract +/- 15 MW to the GNI output, thereby generating pressure corrected GNI output to EHC.(# unit 5)
