Preface Power Plant Equipment Operation and Maintenance Guide:
Power Plant Equipment Operation and Maintenance Guide of different types of power plants, including the following: modern cogeneration, combined cycle,* and integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC; plants that provides detailed coverage burn coal, petroleum coke, orimulsion, biomass, and municipal waste).
This book provides the reader with a comprehensive understanding of all the equipment used in different type of power plants. It includes detailed coverage of the sizing, selection considerations, calculations, operation, diagnostic testing, troubleshooting, maintenance, and refurbishment of all types of steam turbines, steam generators, boilers, condensers, heat exchangers, gas turbines, compressors, pumps, advanced sealing mechanisms, magnetic bearings, and advanced generators. All the systems and methods used to maximize the efficiency, reliability, and longevity of this equipment are covered in detail. All the preventive and predictive maintenance required for this equipment, including vibration analysis and used oil analyses, are also covered thoroughly. The book also provides guidelines and rules that must be followed to minimize the failure rate and downtime of all power plant equipment.
This book includes an in-depth description of the economics of these power plants and provides information that assists in the selection of the best available power enhancement options such as duct burners, evaporative cooling, inlet-air chilling, absorption chilling, steam and water injection, and peak firing.
Deregulation of the electricity markets is sweeping across the world, which is increasing the necessity for highly efficient power generating plants, such as cogeneration, combined cycle, and IGCC. Changes in the market and the many advantages of these types of power plants enhance their ability to compete and eventually replace older model plants. It is anticipated that independent power producers and different utilities plan to construct additional cogeneration, combined-cycle, and IGCC plants in the near future due to their short construction lead time, low staffing requirements, as well as, low capital investment, and operating and maintenance costs.
This book covers in detail the economic analysis of modern cogeneration and combined-cycle plants, and all the features that enhance their reliability, maintainability, and all the preventive and predictive maintenance required for these power plants. Moreover, this book will focus on the application of gas turbines in power plants, protective systems, tests, and modern brushless double-feed generators (BDFG;generators that enable power generation over a wide range of rotor speeds and that also eliminate the need for brushgear, ideal for wind turbine applications).
This book places a special emphasis on all types of compressors and pumps used in gas turbines, cogeneration, and combined-cycle plants, including centrifugal, axial-flow, and reciprocating compressors and centrifugal and positive displacement pumps.
