Heat Balance Calculation of Steam Turbine and Combined Cycle Power Plants with AxCYCLE™ Online Course
The objective of this 4-day, 2 hours per day, course is to provide participants with practical training on heat balance calculations of steam and combined cycle power plants with the AxCYCLE™ software as well as to perform their economic evaluation to determine cost indices, return on investment, etc. During this interactive course, the participants will have hands-on training on creating different types of heat balance models through simulation of simple and combined cycles. This comprehensive course gives in-depth insight into AxCYCLE™ as a cycle design, analysis and optimization tool.
The course scope includes:
- An introduction to AxCYCLE™ software
- AxCYCLE™ components and how to use them
- Working fluids selection
- Cycle assembly
- Property types
- An overview of the best practices in AxCYCLE™
- Process diagrams (T-S & P-H)
- Off-design performance prediction
- Cycle optimization
- Steam cycle calculation
- Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG), condenser and cooling tower simulations
- Cogeneration simulations
- Combined cycle simulations
- Heat balance results post-processing
- Economics analysis of thermodynamic cycles
Who should attend:
- Engineers and specialists involved in heat balance calculations
- Engineering professionals interested in learning more about the capabilities of the AxCYCLE™
- Engineering students interested in being early adopters of the next generation of turbomachinery system optimization tools and learning in-depths about the capabilities of AxCYCLE™
