In China, coal-fired power is the main generating electricity style; more than 2,000 millions tons coal has been consumed in coal-fired power plants in China. In order to control CO2 emission, three technologies has been introduced, CCS (carbon capture and storage), oxy-combusion, and IGCC (integrated gasification combined cycle). CCS and IGCC technologies are expensive and need too many facilities; besides, there are some concrete problems need to resolve on the oxy-combustion technology. The energy saving work is the other pattern of CO2 emission control.展开更多

Compared with the traditional optimization of specific operating parameters, the idea of the energy-consumption benchmark state was proposed. The equivalent specific fuel consumption(ESFC) analytics was introduced to determine the energy-consumption benchmark state, with the minimum ESFC under varying operation boundaries. Models for the energy-consumption benchmark state were established, and the endogenous additional specific consumption(ASFC) and exogenous ASFC were calculated. By comparing the benchmark state with the actual state, the energy-saving tempospacial effect can be quantified. As a case study, the energy consumption model of a 1000 MW ultra supercritical power unit was built. The results show that system energy consumption can be mainly reduced by improving the performance of turbine subsystem. This nearly doubles the resultant by improving the boiler system. The energy saving effect of each component increases with the decrease of load and has a greater influence under a lower load rate. The heat and mass transfer process takes priority in energy saving diagnosis of related components and processes. This makes great reference for the design and operation optimization of coal-fired power units.展开更多
