The study of heat loss and exergy loss distribution in the power plant system plays a very important role in improving the efficiency of the system. In this paper, a dynamic simulation model of the 5MW solar thermal power system is established. Then, the simulation test with the actual data in a solar thermal power plant is carried out, and we analyze the heat and the exergy loss of the system. The results show that, the heat loss of the condenser is the largest, up to 72%. To increase the thermal efficiency of the system, the energy-saving research for the condenser should be pay attention to. The solar collector field has the most of exergy loss in the system, accounting for approximately 89%. From the exergy efficiency perspective, the solar collector system has huge potential for energy- saving. The thermal efficiency and exergy efficiency of a solar thermal power plant system increases as the load increases, full-load operation of the unit should be maintained as much as possible.

Solar Thermal Power

A preliminary design and feasibility study has been conducted for a 200 kWe solar thermal power plant for operation in Ontario. The objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of small-scale commercial solar thermal power production in areas of relatively low insolation. The design has been developed for a convention centre site in Toronto, Ontario. The plant utilizes a portion of the large flat roof area of the convention centre to accommodate the collector array. Each power plant module provides a constant electrical output of 200 kWe throughout the year. The system is capable of maintaining the constant output during periods of low insolation, including night-time hours and cloudy periods, through a combination of thermal storage and a supplemental natural gas heat source. The powerplant utilized the organic Ranking cycle (ORC) to allow for relatively low source temperatures from the solar collector array. A computer simulation model was developed to determine the performance of the system year-round using the utilizability-solar fraction method. The ORC powerplant uses R245fa as the working fluid and operates at an overall efficiency of 11.1%. The collector is a non-concentrating evacuated tube type and operates at a temperature of 90°C with an average annual efficiency of 23.9%. The system is capable of achieving annual solar fractions of 0.686 to 0.874 with collector array areas ranging from 30 000 to 40 000 m2 and storage tank sizes ranging from 3.8 to 10 × 106L respectively. The lowest possible cost of producing electricity from the system is $0.393 CAD/kWh. The results of the study suggest that small-scale solar thermal plants are physically viable for year round operation in Ontario. The proposed system may be economically feasible given Ontario’s fixed purchase price of $0.42 CAD/kWh, but the cost of producing electricity from the system is highly dependent on the price of the solar collector.

With the environmental situation becoming more and more serious, the dust removal technology in thermal power plant needs to be continually improved. Developed in recent years, the low cryogenic ESP technology can not only remove dust and most SO3 in flue gas, but also meet the needs of emission reduction and energy saving in coal-fired power plant, which means it is worthwhile to promote this kind of technology.

The possibility to use flue gases waste heat for increasing the efficiency of thermal power plant (TPP) explained in this work refers to lignite fired TPP-Bitola in Macedonia (3x233 MW installed electric capacity). Possibility to utilize low-temperature heat energy at the plant?s cold end is also considered in the analysis. Specific fuel consumption is used as an analysis and comparison parameter. Its reduction, compared to the basic power unit ranges between 0.4% and 3.4%. An analysis presenting economic feasibility of the low-temperature heat energy utilization concept for two different refrigerants used in the heat pump is also presented.

Plant Process

We present the concept of a novel thermal power plant process in conjunction with low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR). This process can be employed to achieve modern standards for NOx emissions and solve problems related to post-gas cleaning processes, such as thermal fatigue, catalyst damage, and an increase in differential pressure in the boiler. Therefore, this study is aimed at evaluating the performance of a novel flue-gas cleaning process for use in a thermal power plant, where a low-temperature SCR is implemented, along with the existing SCR. We developed a process model for a large-scale power plant, in which the thermal power plant was divided into a series of heat exchanger block models. The mass and energy balances were solved by considering the heat transfer interaction between the hot and cold sides to obtain the properties of each material flow. Using the process model, we performed a simulation of the new process. New optimal operating conditions were derived, and the effects that the new facilities have on the existing process were evaluated. The results show that the new process is feasible in terms of operating stability and cost, as well as showing an increase in the boiler thermal efficiency of up to 1.3%.
