High-Fidelity Modeling of Boiler Feed Pump Systems for Low-Load Analysis

Meer over het boek

The research focuses on enhancing the efficiency of coal-fired power plants by optimizing the boiler feed pump turbine (BFPT) system, crucial for water delivery to the boiler. It employs high-fidelity modeling using Flownex to create a detailed digital representation of the BFPT and its components. By analyzing this model under varying conditions, the study aims to uncover insights into BFPT behavior at low loads. The findings will offer predictions and strategies for improving BFPT operation, thereby increasing the overall efficiency and cost-effectiveness of power generation.
