Abstract

Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) operation in power systems is characterized by the necessity of having a lot of shutdowns with subsequent start-ups from various thermal states. CCPP start-up assignment schedules from various thermal states are developed on the base of the start-ups modes cycling analysis. At the same time the compliance with technology requirements is ensured. This also ensures maintaining the values of start-ups rate key indicators at a level close to the maximum allowable. Thus the maximum reduction of start-up duration is achieved. The principal criterion of CCPP start-ups optimization is their duration based on any constraints that ensure the equipment reliability. Experimental testing of start-ups modes gives the possibility to identify the technology of their implementation. Further improvement of start-ups process and start-up assignment schedules optimization are performed by calculation method. This paper describes the basic principles which can determine the automatic construction of CCPP start-up assignment schedules from various thermal states, which are able to change during start-up operations.
