Abstract
The ultra-supercritical (USC) double-reheat technology is an immediate area of research focus in China, since the thermal efficiency of USC double-reheat unit is higher than the USC single-reheat unit. The parameters and capacity of USC double-reheat unit in China have made major breakthroughs, and the thermal efficiency of the units are as high as 47–48%, which is the highest in the world. USC double-reheat boiler is one of the most important devices for USC double-reheat unit, and the design concept and precision have a vital effect on the operation of boiler and power station. The most difficult and important factors in the design of double-reheat boiler are the layout of heating surface and the steam temperature regulation method. Therefore, this work summarizes the arrangement of heating surface and temperature regulation method of existing double-reheat boiler in China. It is hoped that the work will set a benchmark for the development of double-reheat boiler and the future 700 °C power generation unit in the world.

Summary
Coal is the primary energy source and plays a dominant role in thermal power generation in China. The emissions of CO2 , which is a greenhouse gas, are another serious environmental problem caused by coal combustion. These pollution problems are harmful to both human health and the development of society [2,3]. It is generally understood that the improvement in thermal efficiency is bound with low coal consumption and low pollution emissions as well as low CO2 emissions [4,5]. Based on the above cognition, the development of high-parameter and large-capacity ultra-supercritical (USC) units with high efficiency for reducing pollutant emissions is greatly promoted in the world
