Optimisation of feedwater heaters and geothermal preheater in fossil-geothermal hybrid power plant
… establish the optimum working conditions of a feedwater heater and geothermal preheater in a power plant that makes use of both renewable and non-renewable energy resources, where renewable energy (geothermal energy) is used to boost the power output in an environmentally sustainable way. …

Component development for a high fidelity transient simulation of a coal-fired power plant using Flownex SE
… This report details the development of a feedwater heater, deaerator and turbine component for such a high-fidelity transient system model using the Flownex Simulation Environment, a onedimensional thermohydraulic network solver. The components have been modelled all with the aim of using …

Techno-economic feasibility of a solar assisted coal power plant
… steam, by using the LFR,to the highest pressure feedwater heater (HPH6), is the most economical option.This is because the LFR technology has the lowest CAPEX and fixed OPEX cost amongst the 3 CSP technologies.This integration option has a discounted payback period of 14,6years and a real …

The development of a test rig to determine fouling factors of feedwater heaters
Feed water heaters are large shell and tube heat exchangers. They from part of the Rankine cycle used in coal fired power plants with the main purpose being the improvement of the overall cycle efficiency. Like most heat exchangers, feed water heaters suffer from fouling. Fouling is defined as “any …

Advanced analytics for process analysis of turbine plant and components
… the performance of a train of feed water heaters in a steam cycle power plant, using machine learning. The goal of this study was to use a simple artificial neural network (ANN) to predict the behaviour of the plant system, specifically the inlet bled steam (BS) mass flow rate and the …
