Abstract

The work is aimed at developing an anti-surge control software for the Turbo-blower number 11 and 12 at Power And Blowing Station of Bhilai Steel Plant. Surge is the phenomenon in which there is a sudden increase in the discharge pressure of the blowers and hence the decrease in the flow rate which leads to the flow reversals. This flow reversal can cause severe damages to the blower turbine and can also be fatal for the human lives working over there. The work starts with studying the anti-surge control systems already installed at the blower Number 11 and 12. The present surge control system is hardware programmed, i.e., it is designed with the use of potentiometers, rectifiers, analog controller, etc. on a printed circuit board. Due to the aging and the involvement of the various circuit components there is always a possibility of control system failure due to the component failure. This project is intended to replace that hardware programmed circuit with a controlling software which will be designed and fed to a general purpose programmable single loop controller. It will decrease the probability of the system failure and hence will increase the reliability of the surge control system.
