Simulation of Coal Fired power generation unit
This simulation represents a rather basic model of a 150MW (gross)
single unit superheated Rankine cycle power plant with a pulverised fuel
coal fired boiler.
The aim is to perform a cold start of the boiler and turbine and once
synchronised to the electrical grid increase load to the unit maximum of
approx. 150 MW. Once this load is reached a score will be given on your
performance, taking into account the fuel usage, auxiliary power
consumption and any environmental limits that have been exceeded. To
achieve a perfect score of 100% may require a few attempts.
Installer is now available on this site after some issues with code signing. Tested on macOS Catalina and Monterey - let me know if you have any issues/problems.
