Thermal Power Plant Troubleshoot
Course Description
The purpose of operation of a thermal power plant is to generate electricity and the main components are Boiler, Turbine & Generator and their auxiliaries. Let me go further as what is done in TPPs, fuel ie chemical energy is first converted into heat energy & this is further converted into mechanical energy which is converted into electrical energy. Excellent Troubleshooting skills are considered a core competency. If your goals include minimizing downtime then this course is a must because it delivers rapid, efficient Troubleshooting. Some aspects will be addressed which includes problem solving terminology, numerous tools and techniques, a standard “blue-print” for problem analysis and resolution, strategies; planning; and protocols, variability analysis and “human factor” analysis as a source of error.
  • Operator and shift personnel
  • Maintenance engineers needing a broad understanding of power plant operation
  • Auditors, health & safety specialists in power plant business

This interactive Training will be highly interactive, with opportunities to advance your opinions and ideas and will include;
