2. 1. On the Analysis and Fault-Diagnosis Tools for Small-Scale Heat and Power Plants

   Author : Jaime Arriagada; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik; genetic algorithms; neural networks; fault diagnosis; maintenance; availability; reliability; energy analysis; combined heat and power; Methods and tools; small scale;

   Abstract : The deregulation of the electricity market drives utilities and independent power producers to operate heat and power plants as profit centers. In order to keep the economic margins on the credit side, the preferred measures have been to improve the electrical efficiency through changes in the hardware and boost the overall efficiency through e.g. READ MORE

4. 2. Modern Thermal Power Plants - Aspects on Modelling and Evaluation

   Author : Klas Jonshagen; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; T-Q diagram; Combined cycle; heat- and mass-balance modelling; carbon capture; CO2;

   Abstract : The European Union (EU) has laid down very clear objectives for the reduction of greenhouse gases in the hope that it will prevent or mitigate climate change. Political incentives are used to make the power industry adopt changes in order to reach these EU targets. READ MORE

5. 3. CFD Modeling of Turbulent Flows in Industrial Applications with Emphasis on Premixed Combustion in Gas Turbines

   Author : Ulf Engdar; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; framdrivningssystem; Motorer; turbulence and premixed combustion modeling ; CFD modeling ; level-set flamelet library approach ; emissions ; gas turbine ; compressor washing ; spray modeling ; Technological sciences; Teknik; Energy research; Energiforskning; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; Motors and propulsion systems; termodynamik;

   Abstract : Increasing restrictions on hazardous emissions combined with demands for good profitability from the operators in the energy market have contributed strongly to the development of innovations in which the emphasis is on low emissions and high efficiency. For gas turbine-based power plants, emission of NOx in particular is governed by stringent legislation. READ MORE

6. 4. Evaluation, Experience and Potential of Gas Turbine Based Cycles with Humidification
