Resumen

Thermal power plants play a crucial role in the power system as critical lifeline infrastructure. In order to meet the production process requirements, the main building of a thermal power plant is often connected to a coal conveyor trestle. This study focuses on investigating the seismic interaction between the common three-row reinforced concrete frame-bent main building and the steel trestle in a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) unit. The objective is to assess the influence of the trestle on the main building and understand the failure mode of the trestle structure. The seismic interaction is analyzed through fragility analysis based on Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA). The results indicate that the trestle has minimal influence on the main building, except during the large deformation stage. The study identifies the failure mode of the coal conveyor trestle as excessive relative displacement along the longitudinal direction at the connection points, leading to collisions or falls. A seismic demand model based on longitudinal relative displacement is developed to obtain the fragility curve for the trestle structure. These findings offer valuable insights for assessing the seismic performance of thermal power plants.
