Area’s for improvement
ICCI 2014 FACS - 26/4/2014
One: Newbuilds
Start at the design: reducing energy consumption of process equipment
Fans of the air cooled coolers,
condensers & combustion blowers
Pumps/compressors
Our high efficiency fans reduce
energy consumption by 50%
Our high efficiency pumps/
compressors reduce energy
consumption by 20-40%
ICCI 2014 FACS - 26/4/2014
Two: Upgrading of Installation
High efficiency fans & pumps: increase plant capacity and efficiency
Approx. 200 kW per condenser
Approx. 600 kW combustion
blowers
Approx. 1000 kW pumps
Use these kW’s more efficiently
Increasing output
ICCI 2014 FACS - 26/4/2014
Overall Plant Performance
Improve plant efficiency; increasing the overall efficiency by 6%
The plant efficiency is approx. 30-40%
2% is used for fans of the
condenser
6% is used for the fans of the
combustion blowers
Saving 50% on fan power
10% is used for pumps
Saving 20% on pumping power
Increase overall efficiency by 6%

Sensitivity for wind velocity
ICCI 2014 FACS - 26/4/2014
Current situation:
Steam turbine condenser:
Power consumption: 1200 kW
Opex: € 768.000,- / yr
Performance testing for air cooled
condensers based on official guidelines
Average wind speed should remain
under 3 m/s
Maximum Beaufort 2
At higher wind speeds no performance
guarantees
In most cases there’s more wind!
ICCI 2014 FACS - 26/4/2014
Case study 3 – Sensitivity for wind velocity
Two solutions:
Larger cooler with low energy consumption fans
Slight breeze
Negative effect on operation of the fans
Negative effect on condenser vacuum
Generating less electricity to the power grid
Same cooler with more air because of high efficient cooling Reduce effect of crosswinds
