HIGH PERFORMANCE MILLING SYSTEM
HPMS SYSTEM FOR COAL MILLS AT THERMAL POWER PLANTS
HPMS system consists of a specially designed Airport Ring Assembly, a set of Inserted Rolls(having special carbide inserts with very high hardness embedded in soft ductile iron core) along
with a compatible design of Bull Ring Segments specially designed to combat the highly abrasive
Indian coal for long life and better grinding action.
AIRPORT RING ASSEMBLY
,
BHEL/AIAE specially designed to suit the site conditions. Its unique design reduces the turbulence
in the mill. The reduction in the turbulence and the reduction in the energy loss is utilised to save
auxiliary power consumption and increase the grinding efficiency of the mill. Unlike other rotating
vane wheels, the Airport Ring assembly is an integral component, which does not get damaged dueto normal foreign material entry into the mill. The Airport Ring Assembly is suitably hard faced to
combat erosion. The system eliminates the usage of wear parts like separator body liners, deflector
liners and intermediate liners and provides more working space for the maintenance crew to work
inside the mill.
INSERTED ROLLERS
The Inserted Rollers have special carbide inserts with very high hardness embedded in ductile iron
core. The core made of tough ductile iron is also capable of withstanding severe shocks without any
danger of failure due to breakage. A layer of ductile iron is always present between the hard inserts.
This forms small grooves between the inserts. As a result, there is literally a biting action on thecoal and this improves the grinding efficiency. The rollers are specially designed to minimise collar
formation. All these result in consistent grinding capacity of the mill and consistent P.F. fineness
throughout the life of the rolls.

The selection of chemistry is such that bonding is perfect and the heat treatment responses of both
alloys are highly favourable.
BULL RING SEGMENTS
The Bull Ring Segments are of a compatible design with a hardness of about 64 RC in superior
high chromium metallurgy, specially developed to suit the Indian coal conditions.
The profile of BRS is so designed that it helps in reducing the wear on grinding rolls and hence
helps in maintaining nearly consistent capacity throughout the life of grinding elements.

ADVATAGES OF HPMS SYSTEM
1. Consistency in Mill Performance
In conventional system, there is collar formation on the rolls and BRS. As a result, the gapbetween the rolls and segments increases and this results in high mill rejects limiting the mill
loading. Thus, the mill capacity in conventional system reduces as the grinding elements
wear.
In the HPMS system, there is less collar formation in the grinding elements due to special
desi n of Rolls and se ments. Hi h wear resistance of the Hi h Chrome Bull Rin
Segments and the inserts of the grinding rolls increase the wear life substantially. All these
result in longer life and consistent mill capacity. The specially designed Airport Ring
Assembly reduces the turbulence in the mill and helps in controlling the P.F. fineness at a
consistent level throughout the life of grinding elements.
The system as a whole ensures efficient control of mill rejects.
2. Reduction in Maintenance Cost
By eliminating the wear resistant liners such as Deflector Liners, Intermediate Liners and
Separator Body Liners, the requirement of spare parts is reduced considerably.
Due to high wear resistance of the grinding elements, the frequency of Ring Roll gapadjustment is also reduced in HPMS system. This, coupled with long life of grinding
elements and Airport Ring, reduces the mill outages and increases the mill availability thus
resulting in a considerable saving in the maintenance cost.

3. Savings in Auxiliary Power Consumption
The Reduction in turbulence inside the mill and elimination of Deflector liners andIntermediate liners results in reduction in the system resistance and consequently reduction
in the energy loss. This reduction in the energy loss is realized as saving in Auxiliary power
consumption in terms of Mill Motor Power Consumption and/or P.A. Fan Power
Consumption,. Thus, the auxiliary energy consumption per ton of coal ground (Specific
Energy Consumption) is lesser than that in conventional mill.
4. Reduction in Combustible Loss
With the increased and consistent capacity of the mill, it is possible to generate full load with
lesser number of mills in operation compared to normal requirement for considerable perioddepending upon the total coal requirement. This results in reduction in total primary air
quantity. By increasing the Secondary Air correspondingly to maintain O2 levels, better
turbulence is achieved in the furnace resulting in better combustion. This consistent P.F
fineness from the mill leads to reduction in combustible loss in Fly Ash and Bottom Ash.

RECOMMENDATION FOR MILL OPERATION
For optimum performance of the mills equipped with HPMS system and to achieve the best
out of the HPMS System, the following operating guidelines are recommended: -
Important Parameters to be watched: -
The mill operating parameters like Mill outlet temperature, PA mass flow-rate, Temperature and
Pressure of PA inlet to the mill, Raw Coal Feed rate to the mill, Mill motor current, Bowl DP, etc.
are all important to be watched in service. In addition, a watch on the PF fineness and mill rejects
wou e p o now a ou e ea ness o m opera on.
Mill Outlet Temperature
It is preferable to maintain the mill outlet temperature at value as high as possible within the safe
operating limits as dictated by the constituents of coal. Usual range is between 650 C and 950 C.
Mills handing low volatile coals can be operated at higher temperatures whereas high volatile
coal demands lesser operating temperature. If the coal contains high volatile matter and also
high Sulphur content, then the mill outlet temperature can be as low as 650 C. It is advisable to
avoid mill outlet temperature above 100 C in order to avoid mill fires.
Primary Air Inlet Temperature and Quantity
It is preferable to close the Cold Air Damper and adjust the Hot Air Damper position so as tomaintain the Air Flow as per the recommendations. The Cold Air is to be admitted, only if the mill
outlet temperature goes above the safe working limits, or if the recommended airflow could not
be maintained with the hot air alone. It is preferred to maintain the P.A. Inlet temperature as high
as possible so as to maintain the outlet temperature within safe limits. This increases the heat
recovery from the flue gases, which would otherwise

be wasted. It also helps in drying the coal and increasing the milling capacity. In addition, because
of higher inlet temperature the mill reject also reduces due to increase in the volume flow rate of
P.A. All these will help in performance improvement.
Raw Coal Feed
It is advisable to control the entry of foreign material in raw coal (like scrap iron, wood shoring,
rags, cotton waste, detonators and stones) as these can interrupt the coal flow, damage or jam the
equipment, or, may cause ignition of coal dust within the pulveriser. Interruption may also cause
total or partial flameout at the burners followed by possible re-ignition, which may result in
dangerous furnace puff or explosion. It is therefore essential to remove all foreign material fromthe raw coal before it is fed into the mill. (IS 3595 Code of Practice for Fire Safety of Pulverizer).
It is also preferable to control the raw coal feed size to the recommended value.
Frequency of Ring Roll Gap Adjustment
As the rollers and B.R. Segments wear, the gap between them increases. The mill rejects willincrease and the mill capacity will reduce. It is recommended to adjust the Ring Roll gap using the
journal stop bolts at this stage. Every adjustment of Ring Roll gap should be followed by
adjustment of gap between the journal head and the pressure spring seat. When no more
adjustment is possible with journal stop bolts, it is recommended to adjust the trunnion eccentricity
with the trunnion end cap. This will shift the grinding zone and the rejects will reduce. Generally
the rollers can be used up to the full thickness of the inserts. Apart from the ring-roll gap, there are
other reasons for excessive coal rejects from the mill.
-

OPERATION,INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
The most probable reasons for excessive coal spillage are: -
Overfeeding
Very low throat velocities
Jamming of the roller assembly
Insufficient spring compression.
Excessive P.F. Fineness setting of the classifier or choking in classifier
Overfeeding: -
Overfeeding occurs when the raw coal feed-rate is more than the mill capacity.
This can be because of-
Excessive feeder speed and mal-operation of the feeder (like inoperative hinge gate mechanism)
Mill Capacity reduction (due to high moisture in coal, low HGI and a high PF fineness)
Very low throat velocities: -
This can be because of-
Very low P.A. mass flow rate
Lower P.A. inlet temperature
Choking in the P.A. Inlet ductPhysical damage to the air port ring assembly like some missing or damaged vanes, damage to
the block off plate etc.

Precautions to be taken during normal shut down and start up of mill: -
During normal shut down of a mill, stop the raw coal feeder; continue to admit primary air for
sufficient time till the mill is emptied of coal as dictated by the mill motor current. This will ensure
purging of the mill and P.F. ducts. Before starting the mill, first admit primary Air till the milling
circuit is purged and then start feeding raw coal initially at a fairly higher feed rate.
The above precautions will reduce the possibility of mill fires.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE ASPECT / INSPECTION PROCEDURE
INSERTED GRINDING ROLLS: -
The inserted grinding rolls should be inspected during preventative maintenance schedule for
free rotation and visual inspection of wear profile.
The wear on grinding rolls, need to be measured after every 1000 hrs and based on wear
rofile if re uired then roller forwardin would also be carried out.
Time to time, wear pattern would have to be compared for roller forwarding from position 1 to 4.
BULL RING SEGMENT: -
After every 1000 hrs, the wear depth on bullring segment should be measured along with
physical inspection of crack in BRS (if any) and level of tightening on bowl.
3.ROTATING AIR PORT MAINTENANCE/INSPECTION
The Rotating Air Port should be inspected during every planned maintenance period (or if
problems arise).
From the topside, the Rotating Air Port Assembly should be inspected for erosion or physical
damage due to foreign objects. The rotating components should be inspected for erosion ordamaged vanes. RotatingAir Port segments need to be replaced only if severe damage exists.
From below, the Rotating Air Port Assembly can be inspected by opening the pyrite chamber
access door and rotating the table. The lower portion of the rotating segments should be
inspected for damage caused by foreign objects.
Any portion of the Rotating Air Port Assembly can be repaired or maintained using standard
fabrication techniques and welding procedures.
