Due to long life of steam power plants in Iran, transformation of steam cycles to combined cycles is under consideration. Bandar-Abbas steam power plant with capacity of 320 MW has been analyzed in this work. This old plant is located near the harbor city of Bandar-Abbas at southern Iran. Method of exergy analysis is used to study the current and the repowered systems. Optimum state of the repo...

While efficiency is still the major driver in combined cycle power plant design, there is an increasing need for operational flexibility along with additional operating cost reduction. nightly and weekend shutdowns and subsequent start-up capabilities should be considered during the overall evaluation of a power plant. Technological advancements in power plant design involving gas and steam tur...

With the development of Smart Grid, accurate prediction power generation is becoming an increasingly crucial task. The primary goal this research to create efficient and reliable forecasting model estimate full-load a combined-cycle plant (CCPP). dataset used in subset publicly available UCI Machine Learning Repository. It contains 9568 items data collected from CCPP during its full load operat...

In order to monitor the performance and related efficiency of a combined cycle power plant (CCPP), in addition best utilization its output, it is vital predict full load electrical output. this paper, output CCPP was predicted employing practically efficient machine learning algorithms, including linear regression, ridge lasso elastic net random forest gradient boost regression. The original da...
