| dc.description.abstract | Boiler feed pump turbine (BFPT) has an important role in the circulating of demin
water from deaerator to the separator of steam power plant operations (PLTU) in
Cirebon. Flow rate, temperature and pressure were important parameters in boiler
feed pump process. Based on the BFPT function, it was necessary to do the analysis
interpretation of the performance BFPT. Data needed for evaluation include pressure
and temperature on the suction, pressure and temperature on the discharge, and flow
capacity. In this study, the data were taken starting in January to December 2014.
Data processing was performed using a centrifugal pump calculations, presented in
tables and graphs using MS Excel. Analysis of data using qualitative interpretation
of quantitative data. BFPT efficiency during operations in 2014 decreased in
February - March amounted to 17.91% (BFPT A) and 18.04% (BFPT B). BFPT A
highest efficiency obtained in January amounted to 73.76%, the lowest in March
amounted to 55.45%. The highest efficiency BFPT B in February amounted to
72.94%, the lowest in March amounted to 54.9%. Change of Performance BFPT
occur due to changes load generator power plant that led to the pressure change and
flow capacity. Other factors that degrade the performance because BFPT was
operated continuously for 24 hours and the age of BFPT sufficient old cause
decrease in pump performance. | en_US |
