Abstract: Control quality of an once-through boiler’s water-fuel ratio (WFR) and main-steam temperature are heavily influenced by the control quality of the once-through boiler’s intermediate point enthalpy (IPE), and it is also ...

Abstract: Parabolic trough solar concentrating technology is a new and clean way to replace the conventional fossil fuel technology to generate steam for heavy oil recovery in oilfield. A computational model was constructed with ...

Abstract: In this paper, a multizone model is developed to investigate the performance of an economizer under all conditions. The model primarily determines the economizer’s distribution parameters under ...

Abstract: A compartmental furnace model for supercritical coalfired boiler systems is presented in this paper. Instead of the traditional lumped parameter method, the furnace is divided to seven compartments along the height based ...

Abstract: In this paper, a new approach for model-based monitoring of turbine heat rate is developed, where the superheat steam flow is calculated according to the output power of the turbine generation instead of the flow of feed ...
