Abstract

This paper describes Power Plant Analyser, an analytical toolbox for power plant dynamic and steady-state performance analysis, and for control system design and test, which has been developed by the Queen's University Engineering Design Centre. Power Plant Analyser simulates, in an easy-to-use way, fossil power plant systems, such as drum-type, once-through, gas turbine, and combined cycle plants. It provides power engineers and educators with a tool for a deep understanding of the complex and interrelated thermodynamic processes and operating characteristics with manual and automatic control loops. It can also be used for conceptual training of power plant operators, and as an experimental bed for testing control strategies.
