Explosions consistently occur when the coal air mixture is leaner than normal, either when initating coal feed on mill start-up, stopping coal feed on shutdown, or when equip- ment problems cause inadvertent loss of feed. Upon loss of feed to a pulverizer, the coal/ air mixture in the system becomes leaner and the coal dust will
In this paper, a review of researches done on the mill control and methods employed for fault diagnosis of coal mills is provided, with the aim of improving performance and operational efficiency of the coal mills.

FAULT DETECTION IN COAL MILLS USED IN POWER PLANTS. P. F. Odgaard B. Mataji. Engineering, Environmental Science. 2006; Abstract In order to achieve high performance and efficiency of coal-fired power plants, it is highly important to control the coal flow into the furnace in the power plant. This means suppression of …
In this chapter, a novel coal mill fault detection approach is presented. This is done through applying the linear regression theory to model two mill operating parameters: motor current and outlet temperature of pulverized fuel.
Early fault detection and isolation in coal mills based on self-organizing maps. Abstract: Classical approaches to the fault detection and isolation usually require extensive plant-modeling and statistical analysis of the measured signals and their residuals versus the …
algorithm to detect fire in a coal mill, based on the coal mill model. 4.1 Loss of Fuel Detection System. In the system the difference is created between modelled mill motor power and the measured motor power, which is then compared with its threshold (in the overrun indicator with hysteresis). When the limiting value is exceeded the logic ...
A coal mill is illustrated in Fig. 1. Dynamic modeling of these coal mills have been the topic of numerous of publications. Some examples dealing with modeling of coal mills are (Rees and Fan 2003), (Zhang et al. 2002) and (Tigges et al. 1998). High order dynamic models and observer design for coal mills are the topics in (Fukayama et al. …
A model-based residual evaluation approach, which is capable of online fault detection and diagnosis of major faults occurring in the milling system, is proposed and shows that how fuzzy logic and Bayesian networks can complement each other and can be used appropriately to solve parts of the problem. Coal mill is an essential component of …
Alternative simple model-free approach is proposed, real-time data are preprocessed and self-organizing map is trained and used for the reliable isolation of the most frequent mill fault — output fuel-mixture drop due to the coal-stuck in the input bunker. Classical approaches to the fault detection and isolation usually require …

Furthermore, an abnormal detection method based on Wasserstein distance is developed for coal mills overall state monitoring. A dual alarm method considering univariate abnormal detection and multivariate coupling thresholds is formed. Finally, the proposed method is validated with real data from a medium-speed coal mill. ... Coal …
Collura et al. [8] developed a real-time performance monitoring tool for coal mill to detect the fineness of pulverized coal by using model recognition and signal processing technology. Compared with the model-based fault diagnosis method, the signal-based fault diagnosis method does not need to establish complex object model.

In this paper, fault detection techniques as applied to coal mills, are classified into four groups – quantitative methods, signal model based methods, qualitative methods, and process history based methods.
Another approach to take is an observer-based scheme for detecting faults in the coal mill, an example of this approach is the publication (Odgaard & Mataji, 2005b), which deals with detection of a fault in terms of a blocked coal inlet pipe.The occurrence of this fault is illustrated by data obtained from the coal mill, when the fault occurs.
Coal mills, essential components in power generation and various industrial processes, pose significant safety risks if not properly managed. These mills, used to grind coal into a fine powder for combustion, present potential hazards such as fire, explosion, and …

Even in routine mill shutdowns, there is a danger that any residual coal left within the mill will oxidise, and may explode as the mill is restarted. The Millwatch system is installed near the classiier and can detect the CO emitted from any hot inclusions within the residual coal. With many baseload plants now
Safety methods. Several methods are available to detect the presence of oxidisation within the mill. Temperature monitoring can detect the heat buildup, but it has limited sensitivity and discrete sensors have dificulty monitoring the whole volume of the mill.
