1983 fossil plant cycling workshop: proceedings
- ed.
An EPRI workshop to address fossil plant cycling was hosted by Commonwealth Edison Company in Chicago, Illinois on November 2-4, 1983. The attendees represented a broad spectrum of US and Foreign utilities, architect engineering firms, equipment vendors, and engineering consultants. These proceedings contain the text of the formal presentations as well as summaries of the working group sessions on selected topics relevant to fossil plant cycling. The formal presentations were organized under the following general session titles: Utility Experience With Cycling Operation, Boiler Considerations During Cycling Operation, Turbine Considerations During Cycle Operation, Balance-of-Plant Considerations During Cycling Operation, and Applications of the EPRI Modular Modeling System (MMS) to Improve Cycling Operation. In addition to the formal presentations, working group discussion sessions were held on topics of particular interest to workshop participants. Each group provided a forum for engineers to exchange ideas and information in a less formal environment. The discussions focused on key issues in more detail and addressed subjects not covered in the formal presentations. The working group sessions covered the following topics: Boiler Considerations, Turbine Considerations, Balance-of-Plant Considerations, Control System Considerations, Operational and Water Quality Considerations, Heat Rate Improvement, and Maintenance Considerations. Papers have been entered individually into EDB and ERA. (LTN)
