Thermal Performance of Coal-Fired Power Plant based on Number of Feedwater Heaters

This study aims to investigate the feasibility of using a feedwater heaters system with coal-fired power plant. Furthermore, the influence evaluation of the different coal consumption on the coal-fired power plants in terms of power output and thermal efficiency improvements. As well, this study foc...
