Abstract

The thermal plants operational efficiency improvement study relevance is associated with the temperature influence of heating the air required for the fuel burning and economic feasibility. The paper objective is to define the optimal value of the recuperator air heating temperature and to study the given temperature impact on the high-temperature unit operating efficiency. The recuperator air heating optimal temperature defining algorithm deriving appears to be the problem solving. The methods of the heat exchange equation mathematical modelling, optimization problem numerical solution, non-linear programming, and modern methods of the technical and economic assessment were used in the paper. The computational investigation results of the temperature influence of heating the air required for the radiant tube fuel burning on the thermal plant technical and economic efficiency are presented.
