In this paper, energy and exergy analysis has been conducted on a subcritical coal fired power plant of Wisconsin Power and Light Company, USA to investigate the steam cycle energy and exergy efficiency. The cycle is analyzed by developing a mathematical model using its operating and design parameters. The analysis is performed using EES (Engineering Equation Solver). The energy analysis shows that major share of energy loss occurs in condenser i.e. 72% of total cycle energy loss, whereas, exergy analysis shows that 83.09% total exergy destruction of cycle occurs in boiler.Furthermore, the simulation results are compared with actual with an absolute error of 3.1%. Additionally, the parametric study is performed to examine the effects of various operating parameters such as main steam pressure and temperature, condenser pressure, terminal and drain cooler temperature difference on net power output, energy andexergy efficiency of cycle. The parametric study shows that the plant has maximum energy and exergy efficiencies at steam pressure of 2500psi, condenser pressure of 1.0psi and main steam temperature of 1100oF. Furthermore, these parameters do not seem to change energy and exergy efficiencies significantly.

Energy And Exergy Analysis

In this study, the energy and exergy analysis of Garri 4 power plant in Sudan is presented. The primary objective of this paper is to identify the major source of irreversibilities in the cycle. The equipment of the power plant has been analyzed individually. Values regarding heat loss and exergy destruction have been presented for each equipment. The results confirmed that the condenser was the main source for energy loss (about 67%), while ex­ergy analysis revealed that the boiler contributed to the largest percentage of exergy destruction (about 84.36%) which can be reduced by preheating the inlet water to a sufficient temperature and controlling air to fuel ratio.

Energy And Exergy Analysis

This paper presents a multi-point energy and exergy analysis of a hybrid SOFC–GT power plant. The plant layout consists of the following principal components: an internal reforming SOFC, a steam-methane pre-reformer, a catalytic burner, a radial gas turbine, a centrifugal air compressor, a centrifugal fuel compressor, plate-fin heat exchangers, counter-flow shell and tube heat exchangers, and mixers. The partial load performance of the centrifugal compressors and radial turbine is determined using maps, properly scaled in order to match required mass flow rate and pressure ratio values. The plant is simulated on the basis of a zero-dimensional model discussed in previous papers. Two different partialization strategies are introduced in order to assess the partial load behavior of the plant. Results show that the plant achieves the best partial load performance for the case when both air and fuel mass flow rates are simultaneously reduced.

Long Operation

Steam power plant Generation of Tanjung Jati B 3rd unit has a capacity of 660 MW. The power plant operational in 2011, because of the long operation process, there will be a decrease in performance. The plant needs to be researched to analyze the performance and losses that occurs in the power plant. Because this also affects the environment if the efficiency of the power plant is high, it can reduce the use of coal. Because coal becomes air pollution and environmental pollution, which can cause acid rain, water pollution, and global warming. This research is used to analyze energy and exergy on the components of a steam power plant. From the results of this research, the largest of destruction exergy boiler is 881.08 MW and the exergetic efficiency is 48.66%. While the rate of the smallest destruction exergy in LPH 3 is 0.6 MW and the exergetic efficiency is 94.45%. The contribution of the largest Losses energy in the boiler is 231 MW and energetic efficiency is 87.05%. While the contribution of the smallest energy Losses in HPH 6 is 0.74 MW and energetic efficiency is 99.23%.
