  4. 4. Nonlinear Model Predictive Control for Combined Cycle Power Plants

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Anna Johnsson; [2013]
    Keywords : Optimization; Nonlinear Model Predictive Control; Extended Kalman lter; Modelica; Optimica; JModelica.org; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis project serves to investigate the possibilities of Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) using the example of enthalpy control of the BENSON HRSG (heat recovery steam generator) of a combined cycle power plant (CCPP). The general idea of NMPC is to solve an optimization problem, to nd the next control action, and this optimization problem is based on a model of the system. READ MORE

  5. 5. Development of a tool for simulating performance of sub systems of a combined cycle power plant

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Prabodha Jayasinghe; [2012]
    Keywords : Heat rate; Power plant efficiency; Gas turbine efficiency; Steam turbine efficiency;

    Abstract : Abstract In Sri Lanka, around 50% of the electrical energy generation is done using thermal energy, and hence maintaining generation efficiencies of thermal power plants at an acceptable level is very important from a socio-economic perspective for the economic development of the country. Efficiency monitoring also plays a vital role as it lays the foundation for maintaining and improving of generation efficiency. READ MORE
