Combined Cycle Powerplant Cost Sensitivity Analysis

In Gas turbine-based combined cycle power plant market, the customer conducts an economic evaluation of competitive products to decide their buying option. There are different methods to calculate the economics of a power plant like Levelized cost of electricity (LCOE), Net present value (NPV) and payback period. LCOE methodology is commonly used for lifecycle cost analyses for combine cycle power plant that covers cost details of the plant and plant performance over the complete lifetime of a power plant from construction to retiring. Typically, it includes a combine cycle power plant ownership costs (Total plant cost and operating & maintenance cost) and combine cycle power output and efficiency. This LCOE method is helpful to compare power generation system that use similar technologies. This paper encompasses the LCOE calculation method, assumptions & approach to analyze the impact of key parameters of the electrical generation cost. They key parameters includes combine cycle output, combine cycle efficiency, fuel cost, annual operating hours, capital charge factor, annual operating hours, power plant life, discount rate, nominal escalation rate, operating & maintenance cost. This paper analyses result will provide insights to the customer & Gas turbine-based OEM (Own Equipment Manufacturing) companies to focus on different area/parameters to reduce the unit cost of generating electricity.

ANALISIS TERMOEKONOMI SIKLUS KOMBINASI TURBIN GAS DAN UAP UNIT PLTGU GRATI

The increasing of electricity needs and the crisis of fossil fuels have been requiring an improvement of power plant performance, including combined cycle power plant which has important role as a provider of national electricity nowadays. Thermoeconomic analysis is one of new concept that combine exergy analysis with cost approachment to improve a system performance. In this research, analysis applied in combine cycle power plant of PT. Indonesia Power Grati. The result shows that combustion chamber is the greatest irreversibility source with an exergy destruction was found 53,81%. Where as an economic analysis obtains a different result, LP steam turbine is the component which has a huge exergoeconomic loss was found Rp 33.655.386,46/hour. Based on this result, the efforts that we can do to get an optimal performance of combine cycle power plant are preheating a combustion air to reach a perfect combustion and cleaning all the components continually.

ANALISIS EFISIENSI SIKLUS COMBINE CYCLE POWER PLANT (CCPP) GAS TURBINE GENERATOR TERHADAP BEBAN OPERASI PT KRAKATAU DAYA LISTRIK

Turbin Gas Generator umumnya mengalami perubahan beban untuk memenuhi kebutuhan daya listrik yang berubah sewaktu-waktu, sesuai dengan permintaan konsumen. Beban dari turbin gas yang berubah-ubah akan berpengaruh terhadap kinerja dari tiap-tiap komponennya antara lain kompresor, combustion chamber, dan turbin gas. Dalam merespon perubahan beban yang terjadi, maka suplai bahan bakar, udara pembakaran, serta gas buang yang akan di proses di HRSG untuk mengoperasikan turbin uap ikut berubah pula. Hal tersebut akan berpengaruh pada kinerja dan efisiensi dari gas turbin tersebut. Dengan mengetahui efisiensi siklus pada tiap beban maka diperoleh grafik efisiensi siklus pada turbin gas generator sehingga diketahui perbedaan nilai efisiensi siklus pada tiap variasi pembebanan. Analisa efisiensi siklus Gas Turbin Generator dilakukan pada Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Gas dan Uap melalui perhitungan efisiensi kompresor, dan efisiensi turbin gas, tanpa memperhitungkan efisiensi yang terjadi di ruang bakar. Selain itu analisa efisiensi gas turbin generator juga menghasilkan nilai efisiensi dari tiap pembebanan yang terjadi di turbin gas generator Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Gas dan Uap. Data temperatur dan tekanan yang diperoleh telah tercatat melalui layanan sistem operasi interface. Dari hasil perhitungan pada turbin gas Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Gas dan Uap diperoleh nilai efisiensi siklus turbin gas generator yang berbahan bakar gas alam (metan) sebesar 31.28% pada pembenanan 23 MW, 38.71% pada pembebanan 27MW, dan 45.56% pada pembebanan 33MW. Dari hasil perhitungan efisiensi pada 3 proses pembebanan diketahui bahwa semakin besar pembebanan dilakukan maka efisiensi yang dihasilkan mesin semakin tinggi

ANALISIS TOTAL EFISIENSI HRSG (HEAT RECOVERY STEAM GENERATOR) PADA COMBINE CYCLE POWER PLANT (CCPP) 120 MW PT. KRAKATAU DAYA LISTRIK

Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) adalah suatu komponen kesatuan antara turbin gas dan turbin uap pada sistem combine cycle power plant. HRSG berfungsi sebagai alat yang memanfaatkan energi panas gas buang dari gas turbin untuk memanaskan air pada tube - tube yang berada di dalam HRSG, sehingga air berubah menjadi uap panas lanjut untuk memutar turbin uap [1]. Analisa dilakukan pada HRSG Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Gas dan Uap melalui perhitungan total efisiensi berdasarkan temperatur, tekanan, dan laju massa yang masuk dan keluar HRSG. Selain itu analisa ini untuk membandingkan total efisiensi HRSG pada saat commisioning process dengan bulan Januari 2016. Data temperatur, tekanan, dan laju massa yang diperoleh telah tercatat melalui layanan system operasi interface. Dari hasil perhitungan nantinya akan diketahui nilai total efisiensi HRSG commisioning sebesar 93,31% dengan nilai efisiensi high pressure sebesar 69,62% dan nilai efisiensi low pressure sebesar 23,69%, dibandingkan dengan nilai total efisiensi HRSG pada bulan Januari 2016 sebesar 79,88% dengan nilai efisiensi high pressure sebesar 66,47% dan nilai efisiensi low pressure sebesar 13,41%. Terjadi penurunan nilai efisiensi saat commisioning dengan bulan Januari 2016 yaitu sebesar 13,43%.

A Complex Use of the Materials Extracted from an Open-Cast Lignite Mine

The company Sokolovská uhelná, was the largest producer of city gas in the Czech Republic. After its substitution by natural gas the gasification technology became the basis of the production of electricity in the combine cycle power plant with total output 400 MW. For the possibility of gasification of liquid by- -products forming during the coal gasification a entrained-flow gasifier capable to process also alternative liquid fuels has been in installed. The concentrated waste gas with these sulphur compounds is conducted to the desulphurisation where the highly desired, pure, 96 % H2SO4 is produced. Briquettable brown coal is crushed, milled and dried and then it is passed into briquetting presses where briquettes, used mainly as a fuel in households, are pressed without binder in the punch under the pressure of 175 MPa. Fine brown coal dust (multidust) is commercially used for heat production in pulverized-coal burners. It forms not only during coal drying after separation on electrostatic separators, but it is also acquired by milling of dried coal in a vibratory bar mill. Slag from boilers of classical power plant, cinder form generators and ashes deposited at the dump are dehydrated and they are used as a quality bedding material during construction of communications in the mines of SUAS. Fly ash is used in building industry for partial substitution of cement in concrete. Flue gases after separation of fly ash are desulphurized by wet limestone method, where the main product is gypsum used, among others, in the building industry. Expanded clays from overburdens of coal seams, that are raw material for the production of “Liapor” artificial aggregate, are used heavily. This artificial aggregate is characterized by outstanding thermal and acoustic insulating properties.
