25 Years of Experience and Engineering to Manage the Air
Power Plant Fan Systems
Power plants – whether thermal, biomass or geothermal – must ensure continuous and reliable energy production. Fan systems in these plants are at the heart of many critical processes, from combustion efficiency and emissions control to gas evacuation and turbine cooling. The operating environment is fraught with high temperatures, corrosive gases and heavily loaded operations, requiring special design, superior material quality and exceptional reliability.
As Efsan Makina, we design, manufacture and commission turnkey fan systems for the challenging and specific needs of power plants. We contribute to the uninterrupted and efficient energy production of your plant with our long years of engineering experience and production quality in accordance with international standards.
Efsan Difference in Power Plant Fan Systems
Fans used in power plants are usually large in size and high in power (up to 8,000 kW) and must withstand harsh process conditions. Efsan Makina’s solutions in this field focus on the following key challenges:
- High Temperature and Corrosive Environments: Applications such as boiler feed (ID Fan, FD Fan), flue gas treatment (Booster Fan) and hot gas circulation expose fans to temperatures up to 1200°C and corrosive gases. Efsan Solution: We extend the life of our fans by using special alloyed, high temperature and corrosion resistant materials (e.g. stainless steel, special coatings) and implement designs that minimize thermal expansions.
- Dust and Particle Load: Dense dust loads, from coal dust to ash particles, lead to wear and deposits on fan blades. Efsan Solution: We use impeller and volute designs reinforced with wear-resistant steel armor and reduce the risk of clogging with self-cleaning aerodynamic profiles.
- Energy Efficiency and Operating Costs: For power plants, energy consumption directly affects production costs. Efficient operation of fans is critical to reduce overall operating costs. Efsan Solution: With process-specific aerodynamic optimizations and inverter (VFD) controlled systems, we ensure that our fans operate with the highest efficiency at full load and part load. This results in significant energy savings and a smaller carbon footprint.
- Reliability and Uninterrupted Operation: Unplanned downtime leads to huge costs and production losses for power plants. Efsan Solution: We guarantee maximum uptime and reliability of our fans with robust structural designs, precise balancing and vibration monitoring systems.
