Thermo-Economic Analysis of a Coal-Fired Power Plant (CFPP) Using Turbine Cycle Heat Rate and Plant Net Heat Rates at Various Operating Loads
Evaluating Coal-Fired Power Plant (CFPP) performance is a complex process involving the determination of the turbine cycle Heat Rate (TCHR). This study focuses on determining the TCHR by developing a mathematical model. The model, which incorporates economic analysis of the plant, is developed using...
