The Momentum Rate of Change in Control Volume Silo Bunker to Coal Feeder on Power Plant Operational for Performance Analysis of Coal Distribution Prosess

Abstract

A comprehensive flow-ability study from coal silo bunker, chain grade transfer and until crushed coal is needed. For the coal silo bunker to ensure smooth flow of coal in all seasons with different moisture contentsand different percentage of fines. Maintaining a constant supply of coal in the silo bunkers to coal feeder has proven to be a challenge. Tanjung Jati B power plant has units 1 and 2, each unit has 6 coal silo bunker with a capacity of 500 tons, so a total of 12 coal silo bunker. In conclusion silo bunker and coal feeder operation is not based on a precise calculation but based on secure estimates fuel supply to operate the boiler only.
