INTRODUCTION

Electricity generation is the process of harnessing electrical power from

other sources of energy. Electricity transmission, distribution and electrical power

storage and recovery using pumped-storage methods are other processes

normally carried out by the electric power industry.

Power plants or power stations generate electricity by using

electromechanical generators. These generators are driven by heat engines

which are fueled by combustion or nuclear fission. Other means like the kinetic

energy from wind and flowing water are also viable options for electricity

generation. The most common types of power stations are nuclear power plant,

geothermal power plant, hydroelectric power plant, combine cycle power plant

and the diesel electric power plant which will be the main focus of this design

project.

Since the invention of diesel engine at the end of the nineteenth century,

this engine has found major applications either as a peak or as continuous

source of electric power due to its excellent qualities of operation and economy.

The diesel plants are more efficient than any other heat engines of comparable

sizes. First, it is cheap in cost. It can be started quickly and brought into service.

Its manufacturing periods are short and therefore, a diesel station may be rapidly

extended to keep pace with load growth by adding generating units of suitable

sizes.

1

In a diesel electric power plant, diesel engine is used as the prime mover.

The diesel fuel burns inside the engine and the products of this combustion act

as the working fluid to produce the mechanical energy. The diesel engine then

drives the alternator to convert the mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Such power stations are only used to produce small power, because of the

considerably high price of diesel.

Existing diesel power stations here in the Philippines offers a good

reference for this study. The 225 MW Bauang medium-speed bunker-fired diesel

power plant is one of the largest bunker-fired diesel power generation facilities in

the world. It has the highest capacity among all the diesel electric power plants

here in the Philippines operating under a 15 year Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT)

agreement. It is located approximately 255 kilometers north of Manila in

Payocpoc Sur, Bauang La Union. Other notable DEPPs in the Philippines are the

11 MW Bohol Diesel Power Plant in Tagbilaran, Bohol and the 75 MW Panay

Diesel Power Plant located in Iloilo City.

The researchers propose of establishing a Diesel Electric Power Plant

(DEPP) at Brgy. Locloc, Bauan, Batangas that will supply electricity to Bauan and

other nearby municipalities. The province of Batangas is located at the southern

tip of Luzon. It is one-hundred twenty kilometers away from Metro Manila through

a modernized expressway. A lot of large scale industries and modernized

commercial establishments can be found in the province.

2

Since the proposed location is near the coastal area, the water supply and

the cooling system of the plant will not be a problem. Other factors like fuel

transportation and the like will also not be much of an issue. The main objective

of the construction of the power plant in Locloc, Bauan, Batangas is to provide

and generate enough electricity to cope up with the increasing demands of the

people for a better way of living and economic advancements.

After a comprehensive survey of the load demands of Bauan and 10 other

nearby municipalities, namely, Agoncillo, Alitagtag, Calaca, Cuenca, Lemery,

Mabini, San Luis, San Nicolas, Sta. Teresita and Taal, the following load

demands for the year 2009 to 2013 was obtained:

TECHNICAL DESIGN

This chapter highlights the discussion of how the different parts of a diesel

engine power plant together with the necessary computation works gathered

from the internet, books and other reference materials. This will serve as basis

and additional knowledge in pursuing the plant design.

I. Diesel Engine

The diesel engine is a type of internal combustion engine, more

specifically a compression ignition engine in which fuel is ignited by the high

temperature of a compressed gas rather that a separate source of energy.

In this engine, gas needs to be compressed which will increase its

temperature – Charles’ Law. This property is basic to ignite the fuel. The air is

drawn into the cylinder and compressed by the rising piston. At the top of the

piston stroke, diesel fuel is injected into the combustion chamber at a high

pressure, through an atomizing nozzle, mixing with hot, high pressure air. This

phenomenon will make the mixture ignite and burn very rapidly. The explosion

causes gas in the chamber to expand, driving the piston down with considerable

force and creating power in vertical direction. The connecting rod transmits this

motion into the crankshaft which is forced to turn, delivering rotary power at the

output end of the crankshaft. Scavenging of the engine is done either by ports or

valves. Usage of the turbocharger to compress the intake air will fully realize the

capabilities of the diesel engine. An intercooler/after cooler used to cool the

intake air after compression by the turbocharger will increase the efficiency.

11

Figure1. Diesel Engine

Engine Design Features

1. Bedplate

The rigid bedplate for the large bore engines is built up of longitudinal

side girders and welded cross girders with cast steel bearing supports.

For the smaller bore engine types the bedplate is of cast iron. It is

designed for long, elastic holding down bolts arranged in a single row

and tightened with hydraulic tools. The main bearings are line with

white metal and the thrust bearing is incorporated in the aft end of the

bedplate. The aftmost cross girder is therefore designed with ample

12

stiffness to transmit the variable thrust from the thrust collar to engine

seating.

2. Frame box

The frame box is equipped on the exhaust side with a relief valve and

on the camshaft side with large door for each cylinder providing access

to the crankshaft components.

3. Cylinder Frame

The cat iron cylinder frames from the top of the frame box make

another significant contribution to the rigidity of the overall engine

structure. The frame include the scavenge boxes which are

dimensioned to ensure that scavenge air is admitted uniformly to the

cylinders. Staybolts are tightened hydraulically to connect the bedplate,

the frame box and the cylinder frames and form a very rigid unit.

4. Crankshaft

The conventional semi-built, shrink-fitted type crankshaft is provided

with a thrust collar. The sprocket rim for the camshaft chain drive is

fitted on the outer circumference of the thrust collar in order to reduce

the overall length of the engine except for the high cylinder numbers.

5. Connecting Rod

In order to limit the height of the engines a relatively short connecting

rod, comprising few principal parts is specified. The large area of the

lower half of the crosshead bearing allows the use of white metal or

thin aluminum on the small bore engine models

13

6. Cylinder Liner

The liner is bore cooled on the larger engine models and available on

two different configurations – with or without insulation of the cooling

water jet pipes to match the cooling intensity closely to the different

engine ratings.

7. Cylinder Cover

A solid steel component provided with bored passages for cooling

water, a central bore for the exhaust valve, and bores for fuel valves,

safety valves, starting valve and indicator valve.

8. Piston

It is usually made of heat resistant steel, bolted to the piston rod to

allow distortion free transmission of the firing pressure. It has for ring

grooves which are hard chrome plated on both upper and lower

surfaces of the grooves.

9. Piston Rod

It is surface treated to minimize friction in the stuffing box and to allow

a higher sealing contact pressure.

10.Camshaft

It drives the fuel injection pumps and the hydraulic exhaust valve

actuator. Cams are shrink fitted to the shaft and can be individually

adjusted by the high pressure oil method.

14

II. Fuel Supply System

It consists of storage tank, strainers, fuel transfer pump and all day fuel

tanks. The fuel oil is supplied at the plant by rail or road. The oil is stored in the

storage tank. From the storage tank, oil is pumped to smaller all day at daily or

short intervals. From this tank, fuel oil is passed through strainers to remove

suspended impurities.

Figure 2. Fuel Supply System

III. Air Intake System

This system supplies necessary air to the engine for fuel combustion. It

consists of pipes for the supply of fresh air to the engine manifold. Filters are

15

provided to remove dust particles from air which may act as abrasive in the

engine cylinder.

The air entering the engine must be clean, free from debris, and as cool

as possible because a diesel engine requires close tolerances to achieve its

compression ratio. To improve a turbocharged or supercharged engine’s

efficiency, the compressed air must be cooled after being compressed. Air intake

systems are classified into wet or dry types. In a wet filter intake system, the air is

sucked or bubbled through a housing that holds a bath of oil such that the dirt in

the air is removed by the oil in the filter. The air then flows through a screen-type

material to ensure any entrained oil is removed from the air. In a dry filter system,

paper, cloth, or a metal screen material is used to catch and trap dirt before it

enters the engine. In addition to cleaning the air, the intake system is usually

designed to intake fresh air from as far away from the engine as practicable,

usually just outside of the engine’s building or enclosure. This provides the

engine with a supply of air that has not been heated by the engine’s own waste

heat. The reason for ensuring that an engine's air supply is as cool as possible is

that cool air is denser than hot air. This means that, per unit volume, cool air has

more oxygen than hot air.

16

Figure 3. Air Intake System

IV. Exhaust System

This system leads the engine exhaust gas outside the building and

discharges it into the atmosphere. To reduce the noise level of this process; a

silencer is usually incorporated in the system.

The exhaust system of a diesel engine performs three major functions.

First, the exhaust system routes the spent combustion gases away from the

engine, where they are diluted by the atmosphere. This keeps the area around

the engine habitable. Second, the exhaust system confines and routes the gases

to the turbocharger if used. Lastly, the exhaust system allows mufflers to be used

to reduce the engine noise.

17

V. Cooling System

The heat released by the burning of fuel in the engine cylinder is partially

converted into work. The remaining amount of heat passes through the cylinder

wall, piston, rings and other parts may cause damage to the system. Cooling is

provided in order to keep the temperature of the engine parts within safe

operating limits. It consists of a water source, pump and cooling towers. The

pump circulates water through cylinder and head jacket. The water takes away

heat from the engine and becomes hot. The hot water is cooled by cooling

towers and then re-circulated for cooling.

Figure 4. Cooling Water System

18

VI. Lubricating System

This system minimizes the wear of rubbing surfaces of the engine. It

comprises of lubricating oil tank, pump, filter and oil cooler. The lubrication oil is

drawn from the lubricating oil tank by the pump and is passed through filter to

remove impurities .The clean lubrication oil is delivered to the points which

require lubrication. The oil coolers incorporated in the system keep the

temperature of the oil low.

An internal combustion engine could not run for even a few minutes if the

moving parts were allowed to have metal to metal contact. This contact

generates heat due to tremendous amount of friction leading to the engines

destruction. To prevent this, all moving parts of the engine ride on a thin film of

oil. The oil’s function is to lubricate the bearings surfaces and to cool the

bearings by absorbing the friction generated heat. The flow of oil to the moving

parts is accomplished by the engine’s internal lubricating system.

19

Figure 5. Lubricating System

Oil is accumulated and stored in the engine's oil pan where one or more

oil pumps take suction and pump the oil through one or more oil filters as shown

in the figure. The filters clean the oil and remove any metal that the oil has picked

up due to wear. The cleaned oil then flows up into the engine's oil galleries. A

pressure relief valve maintains oil pressure in the galleries and returns oil to the

oil pan upon high pressure. The oil galleries distribute the oil to all the bearing

surfaces in the engine. Once the oil has cooled and lubricated the bearing

surfaces, it flows out of the bearing and gravity-flows back into the oil pan. In

medium to large diesel engines, the oil is also cooled before being distributed

20

into the block. This is accomplished by either internal or external oil cooler. The

lubrication system also supplies oil to the engine’s governor.

VII. Engine Starting System

This is an arrangement to rotate the engine initially, while starting, until

firing starts and the unit runs with its own power. Usually, small sets are started

manually by handling but larger units use compressed air for starting.

Starting Circuits

Diesel engines have as many different types of starting circuits as

there are types, sizes, and manufacturers of diesel engines. Commonly,

they can be started by air motors, electric motors, hydraulic motors, and

manually. The start circuit is usually a simple start pushbutton or a

complex auto-start circuit. The following process must occur to start the

engine.

a. The start signal is sent to the starting motor. The air electric or

hydraulic motor will engage the engine’s flywheel.

b. The starting motor will crank the engine. It will let the engine

reach a high enough rpm to allow the engine’s compression to

ignite the fuel and start the engine running.

c. The engine will then accelerate to idle speed. When the starter

motor is overdriven by the running motor it will disengage the

flywheel.

CHAPTER V

ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

This chapter presents the power plant economics of the designed 330 MW

Diesel Electric Power Plant.

Plant Economics

A power station’s function is to deliver power at the lowest possible cost

per kilo watt hour. The charges must include the of interest on the capital, taxes,

insurance, depreciation and salary of managerial staff, the operating expenses

such as cost of fuels, water, oil, labor, repairs and maintenance.

The power production can be minimized by:

32

  1. Reducing the amount of investment in the plant.

2. The plant must be operated by fewer worker

3. The plant must be uniformly designed

4. Selecting the station as to reduce cost of fuel, labor, etc.

  All the electrical energy generated in a power station must be consumed

immediately as it cannot be stored. So the electrical energy generated in a power

station must be regulated according to the demand. The demand of electrical

energy or load will also vary with the time and a power station must be capable of

meeting the maximum load at any time.

  In order to predict power plant costs given the desired output power, a

model to relate the unit cost of a new power plant varying with installed capacity

was developed. The resulting data points were plotted from the total unit costs to

build a diesel electric plant. The total unit costs are a function of equipment costs,

labor costs, balance-of-plant costs, indirect costs, engineering costs and

contingencies. These unit costs were estimated in accordance with the power

plant cost estimate basis.

CHAPTER VI

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

44

This chapter incorporates the environmental standards for the design

policies related to the Diesel Electric Power Plant.

Environmental Aspect

Environmental Management Plan

Environmental conditions shall provide dust control of all excavations,

material sites, roads, disposal areas within its assigned areas of responsibility

and shall provide suitable equipment, facilities and precautions limit, the

discharge of contaminants and noise level. The ambient air quality impact

resulting from the emission of pollutants shall not exceed the National Ambient

Air Quality Standards for Source Specific Air Pollutants. Noise generated during

power plant operation shall conform to Noise Standards stipulated in NPCC

memorandum. The waste water discharges from the power plant complex shall

not cause the water quality of bodies around the power plant to exceed the

standards set by DENR.

One of the important first steps in establishing an environmental

management system is to understand the range and diversity of environmental

issues to be addressed.

The list of issues is no longer than many managers at first believe. The

relationship between issues is also an important factor, for action on one issue

can easily affect the estate’s performance on another.

45

The preparation of a comprehensive environmental assessment report is

thus an important first step.

Some of the specific management elements, which contribute to improving

environmental performance, are described below.

Elements of an Environmental Program

1. Sound policies and clear objectives, which define environmental issues and

identify the state’s approach, such as emphasis on prevention rather than

treatment.

2. Well-defined operating standards and realistic targets for discharges and site

safety.

3. Visible and effective management commitment to environmental protection.

4. Clearly defined line management responsibility and accountability.

5. Adequate resources for the program.

6. Regular review of environmental performance e.g. audits.

7. Programs on training and awareness on environmental risks.

8. Effective incident reporting and investigation.

9. Effective contingency planning for accidents, spills and fires.

10. Reporting systems within the estate, and with the public.

Environmental Monitoring

46

Stack and ambient air quality monitoring devices and testing facilities shall

be provided for proper determination of the nature and quantity of air pollutants

which are or may emitted as a result of power plant operation. All testing

procedure shall be acceptable to DENR.

Water quality monitoring equipment and testing facilities shall be provided

to test compliance of the power plant to DENR.

The handling and storage of solid waste and hazardous waste from the

power station facilities shall be in accordance with the DENR Administrative

Order.

A pollution control officer should be appointed during construction whose

duties and responsibilities should be in accordance with DENR.

Replacement of the landfill refuse will require a properly engineered

disposal facility to before re-location of the dump facility.

Before the refuse can be removed from its present site, a new site should

be found, with adequate storage capacity.

The landfill site should be properly engineered, to prevent leaching of

trace metals, heavy metals, particulate organic matter (POM) and dissolved

organic matter (DOM)/nutrients.

Of course if the above is not done, then there will be inevitable pollution of

soils, surface and groundwater and eventually coastal water. This will create

health and safety hazards.

47

Power plants should comply with the following laws:

(According to the news release of EMB-DENR dated October 9, 2002 and the

power plants managers themselves said so.)

• Philippine Environmental Impact Statement System,

• The Philippine Clean Air Act,

• DENR Effluent Regulations,

• Toxic and Hazardous Waste Act of 1990,

• Ecological Solid Waste Management Act and other permit requirements

The management shall adopt and implement programs for environmental

protection and occupational health and safety during construction and

operations. They shall have a waste management plan and shall be responsible

for the safe handling and disposal of hazardous or toxic waste.

CHAPTER VII

PROJECTION CONSTRUCTION EXECUTION PLAN

This chapter addresses the planning problem of a 330 MW Diesel Electric

Power Plant by optimal allocation of diesel fuel portfolios in long term fixed

contracts and short term market. It includes the method of the design policies

related to the project management of the entire operation of the plant.

48

I. Construction Strategy and Management

The construction of buildings and engine layout are similar in many

respects to the steam power plants, although on a much smaller scale. A steel

frame with brick panels and asbestos sheet roof is quite satisfactory. Good

natural lighting can be provided by including large vertical or horizontal windows

in the side walls and rows of skylights in the engine house roof. Quick deliveries,

simplicity of operation and ability to start quickly are in the favor of diesel plants.

However, the direct numerical comparison is meaningless unless

accompanied by a detailed analysis of each plant in respect to the construction

difficulties encountered during erection, special foundation needs equipment,

transportation costs, availability of materials and labor and other differences

caused by location and general financial conditions.

Diesel plants can be located very near to the load centers, many times in the

heart of the town. The diesel plants are admirably suited to load centre location.

The combination of fuel economy, remote operational control, flexibility as to

installed capacity and high degree of freedom from hazard allow placement of

diesel generation sets almost anywhere that it would be useful and economical.

Management Strategies

Control measures will minimize the likelihood of accidents at the power

station or due to transportation of hazardous materials. When a detailed design

of the power station is completed, a Risk Management and Emergency

49

Response Plan will be developed prior to commissioning for review by

appropriate stakeholders. The plan will cover:

•Design specifications for layout, selection of materials, construction and

operation of the facility preventative measures;

• Specific details of natural gas handling, metering and management

procedures;

• control measures;

• Non-technical measures including organizational and systems measures;

• Safety training;

• Emergency plans (on-site and off-site);

• monitoring;

• Incident and safety reporting; and

• Community consultation and information.

These risk management approaches will follow the National Standard for

the Control of Major Hazard Facilities developed by the National Occupational

Health and Safety Commission.

II. Quality Control

The basic activities of quality assurance are: prevention, verification and

correction. This yields the process flows necessary for a specific customer order.

50

Quality Assurance

Project quality assurance program activities include:

• Planning for project quality.

• Specifications for project quality assurance.

• Auditing system for Quality Assurance (QA).

• Selection for supplier and contractor.

• Manufacturing Code Review

• QA procedures and regulations for establishment of works and site.

• Program monitoring.

• General and technical testing and inspection for the materials,

equipments, and safety of the workers.

• Payment verification of the plant and management progress.

III. Risk Management

The main risk refers to fire. Individual injury risk is estimated at less than

one in a million per year based on the risk of pipeline failure, the probability of

gas dispersion to near a residence and the flash fire radius and intensity. Heat

radiation from a tank and bund fire would not extend to the distance of a

residence.

51

The air emission modeling for a major tank and bund fire suggests that

individual risk of injury from smoke inhalation would depend on the potential risk

of fire (eg. 10 in a million per year) and the dispersion of smoke. The individual

risk of smoke inhalation could be less than one in a million per year. The risk of

injury depends on major bund fire frequency and the probability of exposure to

toxic smoke under prevailing climatic conditions.

Public risk is expected to be low because of the low probability of initiating

events and the proposed control measures. The impact of adverse incidents is

also reduced due to the type of land use and low-level density of residents within

a radius of approximately 2 kilometers. Three residences occur close to or about

1 kilometer from the proposed site.

Risk Assessment Process

• Review of previous reports

• Review of power plant information

• Engineering documents review

• Location visit to learn specifics of operations

• Identify and quantify hazards

• Create risk assessment report

IV. Work Scheduling

52

Getting the plant built under schedule and budget is one thing, but the

plant operating staff had to confront some additional challenges. A new diesel

electric power plant had to be up and running on an aggressive time schedule.

CHAPTER VIII

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Summary of Results and Discussion

53

The Project Company proposes to develop a diesel electric power plant of

total capacity 330 MW at the coastal area of Locloc, Bauan, Batangas . The site

is an Industrial Setting and does not contain significant residual environmental

sensitivity of importance. Using diesel fuel to generate electricity, particularly in

higher efficiency diesel electric power systems, can reduce the environmental

impact of energy usage in this country.

In general, high load factors and large differences in the prices of diesel

and boiler fuel will tend to lower the value of installed capacity. Quick deliveries,

simplicity of operation and ability to start quickly are in the favor of diesel plants.

The key environmental issues associated with the power plant are as follows:

• Emission of carbon dioxide to the air;

• Generation and disposal of liquid effluents including cooling water;

and

• Emission of noise.

The potential impacts of the carbon dioxide emissions to the air,

generation and disposal of liquid effluents including cooling water; and the

emissions of noise have been assessed using sophisticated modeling

techniques, which include consideration of the ambient background environment

and the characteristics of the releases or emissions, and predicts the potential

impacts which may occur. The assessment indicates that no significant

environmental impacts will occur as a result of the construction or operation of

54

the power plant and, when taken together, the overall environmental and social

impact will not be significant.

Conclusion

This final section briefly reviews findings of the study across the various

environmental factors. It notes the potential impacts and indicates whether

mitigation measures can alleviate all concerns, and if they cannot, it identifies the

residual impacts. This section follows the sequence of environmental factors

presented in the last two chapters. In essence, it is an overall summation of the

environmental soundness of the proposed project.

Recommendations

The findings in this work can be used for training and also serve as an

important handbook for Diesel Electric Power Plants. The outcome of the

research may also serve as an information source for Mechanical Engineering

students.
