Materials Research and Opportunities in Thermal (Coal-based) Power Sector Including Advanced Ultra Super Critical Power Plants

Simulator Development of 1000MW Class Ultra Super Critical Coal-Fired Power Plant with advanced control algorithm

Even though efficiency of coal-fired power plant is proportional to operating temperature, increase of operating temperature is limited by a technological level of each power plant components. It is an alternative plan to increase operating pressure up to ultra super critical (USC) point for efficiency enhancement. It is difficult to control the system in that pressure within safety guideline t...

Comparative Evaluation of Advanced Coal-Based Power Plants

The purpose of this study is to comparatively evaluate four types of advanced conceptual power plants based on coal. With efficiency, costof-electricity, and emissions as main criteria, the evaluation was made under consistent design conditions and economic assumptions. The plants considered are a supercritical steam power plant (SC 580◦C), an indirectly coal-fired power system (HIPPS), an adva...
