Application in the induced draft fan and powder exhaust fan of fire-power plant.
Summary
In fire-power plants, the fans and water pumps are the most important and most power consumption equipments, which often run continuously under the low load or variable load states for a long time. There is a huge energy saving potential if we can reduce the power consumption by adjusting the running speed of those equipments.
This is a application case of IDrive2000 MV VFD (with automatic bypass function) used in a Hubei Shiyan thermal power plant. Four Drive respectively apply to#1powder exhaust fan, #2 powder exhaust fan, #3 induced draft fan, #4 induced draft fan.

Energy saving calculation (reference P1/P2= (n1/n)³)
1) #1powder exhaust fan,energy saving rate =30.4%
2) #2 powder exhaust fan,energy saving rate =31.35%
3) #3 induced draft fan,energy saving rate =31.35%
4) #4 induced draft fan,energy saving rate =30.76%
According to the actual calculation, the average annual energy saving rate of Hubei Shiyan thermal power plant can reach 30.965%. If the machines run 8226 hours per year, 4 MV Drive can save energy 2649068 KWH.
