1.1 Design
Each genset consists of a Wärtsilä Vasa 16V32 engine acting as a prime mover
driving an ABB 3-phase AC generator. The engine and generator are connected
using a flexible coupling. The flexible coupling ensures that the generator and
the engine do not affect each other adversely due to smaller deviations in
alignment, temperature movements or any dynamic free forces. For the same
reasons all external piping systems are connected to the engine via flexible
connections. Transmission of vibration and structure born noise is minimised by
having the engine and generator solidly mounted on base frames and the base
frames flexibly mounted on foundation by steel spring elements.

1.2 Function
The basic function of the genset is to produce electricity by having the engine in
operation and thus driving the generator. The engines can be run on partial
load, although a load of 50 % is recommended as the minimum.
This is an extremely simplified description of the function. The genset cannot
perform these functions without the aid of complex auxiliary systems, a control
and monitoring system and an electrical distribution system.
1.2.1 Auxiliary systems
The function of the auxiliary systems is to provide the engine with fuel,
lubricating oil, compressed air, cooling air, and charge air at a required quantity
and quality, as well as to dispose exhaust gases in a proper manner. Therefore,
the auxiliary systems are essential for the proper function of the engine. The
auxiliary equipment should be in a full operational condition when the engine is
in operation or in standby.
Note that all systems are equally important and even though some bypass
functions may exist, these are only measures provided for short-term use during
maintenance, for example.
The auxiliary systems are built up of modular units. The main philosophy
behind the design of a module is that each unit contains all necessary
components. Thus, it is possible to connect the module to the system by using
pipes only.
1.2.2 Control and monitoring system
Reference: Binder set 7B Electrical and control

The engine control and monitoring system consists of several PLC


(Programmable Logic Controller) units. Each genset has one PLC located in the
genset section of the central control panel. One common PLC, which takes care
of common functions of all gensets such as synchronizing, is located in the
common section of the central control panel. There is also one PLC for each
genset located in the genset local control panels. All these units are connected to
the WOIS workstation via the control network.
The PLC installed for the genset controls the operation of the genset and collects
and transfers information to the central processing unit.
The PLC unit installed and shared by all gensets collects and transfers all
common information and controls all common processes.
1.2.3 Electrical distribution system
Reference: Binder set 7B Electrical and control system

The main switchgear or MV switchgear (Medium Voltage) is the 6.6 kV system


used to provide customers with electricity via the distribution transformers.
The LV switchgear (Low Voltage) is a 380 V system that distributes low voltage
electricity to electrical consumers at the power station, thus ensuring a
continuous and reliable operation of the auxiliary equipment.
The electricity for the plant’s own consumption is normally supplied by the
genset via station auxiliary transformers connected to the plant’s MV system.

1.2.4 Black start generator


A black start generator is installed to provide the LV system with back-up
electricity in the case of a total power failure or black out situation. The black
start generator has enough capacity to run the auxiliary equipment needed for
starting one engine. Once the first engine is started and loaded, it will be
connected to the LV system through the station transformer and the other
engines can be started one by one.
