An effective approach to optimizing the parameters of complex thermal power plants

Аннотация

A new approach has been developed to solve the optimization problems of continuous parameters of thermal power plants. It is based on such organization of optimization, in which the solution of the system of equations describing thermal power plant, is achieved only at the endpoint of the optimization process. By the example of optimizing the parameters of a coal power unit for ultra-supercritical steam parameters, the efficiency of the proposed approach is demonstrated and compared with the previously used one, in which the system of equations was solved at each iteration of the optimization process.
