CHP-1 plant, or clouds.

Writes blogger tepich:
Have you ever wondered where does the hot water tap, the heat in your pipes and electricity to charge the phone and the computer of your loved one? Answers to these questions under the cut ...

February 18 at the invitation of "the Territorial Administration for heat supply of Ulyanovsk" OAO "Volzhskaya TGC" I visited with other bloggers the Ulyanovsk TPP-1 (combined heat and power), which is in Zasvijazhskij area of ​​our city.

At the specified location we waited PAZik.Na it took our group to the "generator" of heat and light.
On reaching the CHP, the bus went a guard who, after talking with the driver and escort, let us into the territory. At first we had a small tour bus.

The height of the pipe shown in the photos, is about 185 metrov.Na territory of two CHP ...



And these pipes hot water starts its way into our homes.

You see these wide pipes? And do you know what they are called and how?
It turns out that the tower - a device for cooling a large amount of water directed stream of air.
After the water comes into the desired state, it is directed to cooling of the process equipment. By the way, the cost of a tower more than 500 mln. Rubles.
It's funny, but I used to think that the smoke coming out of them, but now learned that it par.Deystvitelno, a century live-century study.

"What is it?" - Asked the child his mother, worker CHP.
"Factory for the production of clouds" -uslyshal baby back.



First Ulyanovsk thermal power station was built in the automotive plant. At the beginning of December 1946 he was put into operation the first steam boiler thermal power station, and on December 31 the first turbine has gained momentum. At the beginning of 1947, industrial electricity CHP gave workshops car factory, and in 1951 - the Ulyanovsk gorelektrostantsii, which has been associated with voltage 22 kV.



Construction of the main building, station facilities and installation of equipment were carried out rapidly. December 20, 1946 began the trial launch of the first boiler and the first turbine generator, and on December 31 to 16 hours CHP turbogenerator was included in the parallel operation of diesel power stations of the city and took the load 1500 kilowatts. This day went down in history as the beginning of Ulyanovsk thermal power station of its commercial operation.

When we drove up to the main building, where the most important work is carried out.



Here's a plan for the evacuation of hanging on the first floor



Dental, physiotherapy services are available to employees CHP besplatno.Tak they can use the sauna, gym, which are located in the CHP.

We went into the conference room where we vstrel director-chief engineer Dolgalev Viktor Antonovich.



We were asked to wear helmets as safety is strict.



Ivan, the chief engineer for commissioning and testing led us to the most interesting places where energy is produced.
We walked down the corridor with doors that's so beautiful)



On the windows of all kinds of drawings:

A poster on the wall with the history of the station, information for employees about the environment, the terrorist threat:



And the holy of holies:



The turbo-generator that produces electricity. Its thickness = 60 MW generator, frequency = 50 Hz.



The hall on rails mounted on the roof, stir crane that can move at a time up to 20 tons of weight. (Photo 18)

Fire safety on the CHP received much attention: everywhere there are fire extinguishers and fire valve on the red pipes, so you can immediately identify them:



By turning these gates ...



... Water is sprayed around the room here in this red pipes:



This device shuts off the steam turbine generator in case of emergency situatsii.Proiskhodit it almost instantly.



Let's move on to the next compartment, boiler room.
Water is heated in huge kotlah.Vsego them 5 or 6

Can a little bit wrong, because the place was awful shumno.Chtoby hear anything, we are "stuck" with Ivan all storon.Nuzhno was yelling, but in this case the interlocutor could not hear you

For purposes there are two types of fuel: the main and reserve gas-oil. With the nozzle is regulated podacha.Vo them during our visit was conducted using heating oil (Energy asked to temporarily suspend the gas because of its lack. Many industrial companies are beginning to actively burning gas during cold weather, as well as the biggest reserve of fuel at thermal power station, they ask him to switch it to them)

Boilers well oooochen vysokie.Otsenite:



If you open the valve of the boiler, it is seen as the burning oil. Note that the temperature of its burning 2100 degrees:



35



Performance boilers 480 tons of steam per hour.



37



Boiler operation (fuel supply, opening and closing of the nozzles, etc.) is controlled by a computer:



In the control room an abundance of lever buttons, sensors, recorders



40



Implementation of new tehnologii.Upravlenie happens with the help of computers, it is absolutely all parameters can be seen by pressing a couple of buttons:

Control:



Samopistsy.Posle accident due to them can be found because of what she proizoshla.Hranyatsya 3 years, after which shall be in the trash.



The memory of the past:



At the beginning of each heating season, the Commission verifies that CHP, if everything is in order, issue a passport:



And now you can see a short description of CHP on this principle operate almost all Russian CHP:



Incidentally, the installed electric capacity of the CHP - 435 MW, thermal capacity - 1539 Gcal / h

At the end of a walk we were treated to tea and pies, the director answered all our voprosy.Beseda was very interesting and poznavatelnoy.Vot excerpts from the conversation:
 - Notional boundary CHP - a fence, beyond its borders all the responsibility for the delivery of heat belongs to the citizens of Territorial Administration for heat supply, as well as all kinds of caretakers companies
 - Hot water from the tap, you can drink it cold even cleaner. Because the water is coming to the CHP runs zhestochayschuyu clean and practically becomes distilled. If there were no such cleaning, the pipes and turbines would have to change almost every 2-3 years
 - Since it is an object of strategic importance, the FSB often arranges test, throwing saboteurs into the territory that lay the dummies vzryvchatki.Ob these checks are not aware of any police or ambulance or fire-no. So check the reaction of employees of FSB protection and preparedness. Fortunately, all tests run successfully
 - In 1979 there was a major accident in the history of combined heat and power. Due to the low temperature (35 degrees below zero) is still a young plant was glazing unit on the lower tier, frozen network pumps out of service because of the accumulated condensate, in consequence of which there is a short zamykanie.rabota station was suspended for 2 weeks

At the end of the conversation we were given souvenirs: scarves and hats with the symbols VTGK and the book "Collection of energy-efficient tips»
