Krishnan, R P

The travel was undertaken at the request of the Pittsburgh Energy Technology Center (PETC), US Department of Energy (USDOE), to meet with Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd. (BHEL), Trichy, India to (1) finalize the design of the Fuel Evaluation Test Facility (FETF) to be constructed at BHEL, Trichy, (2) establish a schedule for testing an Indian coal in the PETC Fuel evaluation Test Facility, and (3) coordinate the site visits to Indian thermal power stations and R D institutions for the US power plant life expectancy project team. These activities are sponsored under the coal component of the Alternate Energy Resources Development (AERD) project of the US Agency for International Development (USAID). The PETC has the management responsibility for the coal projects, and the Oak Ridge national Laboratory (ORNL) is providing technical support to the BHEL and the Tata Energy Research Institute (TERI), the collaborating Indian institutions for these projects.
