Overview of Energy Audit: Thermal Power, Combined Cycle, and Cogeneration Plants Book

But electricity regulators have to control the price of electricity so that consumers are not stressed with high costs. In addition, environmental considerations are forcing power plants to reduce CO2 emissions. Under these circumstances, power plants are constantly under pressure to improve the efficiency of operating plants, and to reduce fuel consumption. In order to progress in this direction, it is important that power plants regularly audit their energy use in terms of the operating plant heat rate and auxiliary power consumption. Energy Audit of Thermal Power, Combined Cycle, and Cogeneration Plants attempts to refresh the fundamentals of the science and engineering of thermal power plants, and establishes its link with the real power plant performance data through case studies, and further developing techno-economics of the energy efficiency improvement measures. This book will rekindle interest in energy audits and analysis of the data for designing and implementation of energy conservation measures on a continuous basis. Contents: 1 Energy conservation in operation of thermal power plants Section A Design Concepts 2 Design concepts of steam cycle power plants 3 Design concepts of cogeneration plants 4 Design concepts of combined cycle power plants Section B Energy Audit of Steam Cycle Power Plants 5 Perspectives of Energy Audits 6 Energy Audit of Boilers and their Auxiliaries 7 Energy Audit of Steam Turbine Generators and their Auxiliaries 8 Techno-economic Analysis of Energy Audit Results 9 Energy Audit of Plant Auxiliaries Section C Energy Audit of Cogeneration and Combined Cycle Plants 10 Energy Audit of Steam Turbine-based Cogeneration Plants 11 Gas Turbine-based Cogeneration and Combined Cycle Plants
