This paper proposes an approach for improving the plant efficiency by reducing the heat rejection temperature of power cycle using Kalina Cycle System 11 (KCS11) which is integrated at the steam condenser of a 500 MWe SubC (subcritical) coal-fired power plant. It is modelled by using power plant simulation software ‘Cycle Tempo’ at different plant operating conditions. Results show t...

There is a strong incentive for gas turbine operators to minimize and control performance degradation, as this directly affects profitability. The area of gas turbine recoverable and non-recoverable performance degradation will be comprehensively treated in this tutorial. Deterioration mechanisms including compressor and turbine fouling, erosion, increased clearances, and seal distress will be ...

precise identification of the risks of power plants as a part of a comprehensive safety analysis is recommended by monitoring organizations. assessment and risk management techniques in industrial activities through the use of preventive approach to identify hazards , assess and control safety - health risks unit is studied. in this study, risks and effects of abadan gas power plant were studie...

Intelligent engine condition monitoring and early fault detection is becoming a necessity for modern gas turbines to achieve availability and reliability requirements. Degradation or failure of critical control components, such as the fuel metering valves, negatively affects both reliability and safety. Modelbased approaches for analytics and condition monitoring show great promise with advance...

INTRODUCTION The SPEEDTRONIC Mark V Gas Turbine Control System is the latest derivative in the highly successful SPEEDTRONIC series. Preceding systems were based on automated turbine control, protection and sequencing techniques dating back to the late 1940s, and have grown and developed with the available technology. Implementation of electronic turbine control, protection and sequencing origi...

In the current work, different methods for optimization of turbine blade internal cooling are investigated, to achieve higher cyclic efficiency and output power for a typical gas turbine. A simple two-dimensional model of C3X blade is simulated and validated with available experimental data. The optimization process is performed on this model with two different methods. The first method is ...
