  • Computer simulation of a combined-cycle biomass-fueled power plant

    Creator:
    Fox, Stephen John
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents thermodynamic evaluations of various biomass-fueled combined-cycle power plants using a computer model developed for simulating such plants. The combined-cycle systems Investigated are characterized by having a wood-fueled combustor, an indirect-fired gas turbine, and a steam cycle. This work was part of a larger biomass energy project at...

  • Investigation of combustor and fuel preparation requirements for a combined-cycle wood fired power plant

    Creator:
    Bauer, Timothy Lee
    Abstract:
    The Pacific Northwest is a particularly good candidate for a power plant fired with wood since the wood products industry is so important in the area. The combined cycle concept for such a plant has increased in popularity due to the generally greater efficiency of the gas turbine part of...

  • Analysis of a wood-fueled trimburner system for use in a combined-cycle, wood-fired power plant

    Creator:
    Stephenson, Jerry D.
    Abstract:
    This report investigates the use of wood to fuel a trimburner incorporated in a combined-cycle, biomass-fired power plant. The term "trimburner" applies to a ductburner which is designed to boost the temperature of the air stream entering the gas turbine. The work presented here is part of a larger biomass...

  • Analysis of ceramic heat exchangers for use in a combined-cycle, wood-fired power plant

    Creator:
    Ranasinghe, Jatila
    Abstract:
    This report presents the analysis of ceramic heat exchangers for use in a combined-cycle, wood-fired power plant. The combined-cycle system investigated is characterized by having a wood-fueled combustor, an indirect-fired gas turbine, and a Rankine steam cycle. The direct use of low-grade fuels, such as wood, in present gas turbines...

  • An on-line advanced plant simulator (OLAPS)

    Creator:
    Samuels, Jeffery W.
    Abstract:
    A PC based on-line advanced plant simulator (OLAPS) for high quality simulations of Portland General Electric's Trojan Nuclear Facility is presented. OLAPS is designed to simulate the thermal-hydraulics of the primary system including core, steam generators, pumps, piping and pressurizer. The simulations are based on a five equation model that...

  • Stability analysis of dynamic heat transfer

    Creator:
    Luo, Shyr Tung
    Abstract:
    The stability analysis for a heated tube system is an important safety feature of a nuclear power plant. Although the system theory is well established for linear systems described by ordinary differential equations, there is still a shortage of theory dealing with a distributed system, which is described by partial...

  • Off-design analysis and control of a wood-fired combined-cycle power plant

    Creator:
    Brawn, Robert Charles
    Abstract:
    This report presents the off-design analysis of various wood-fired combined-cycle power plants using a computer model to simulate plant performance. The combined-cycle systems investigated are characterized by having a woodfueled combustor, an indirect-fired gas turbine, and a Rankine steam cycle. This work was conducted as part of a larger biomass...

  • Routine and post-accident analysis of nuclear power plant reactor coolant

    Creator:
    Jolma, Eva I.
    Abstract:
    The 1979 incident at Three Mile Island drew attention to weaknesses in the capability to obtain and analyze reactor coolant samples in an environment where the reactor core incurs significant damage. As a result, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission promulgated regulations requiring that reactor coolant analytical capabilities be upgraded so...
