1. Quantifying the Benefits
PEPSE model example
550MW gross, drum boiler, fixed pressure
Fixed and sliding pressure comparisons at half load
Two pump models applied: Electric and steam-driven
Two Hot RH temperature scenarios for 50%, fixed pressure
No temperature loss (ie full HRH temperature at 50%)
30 Deg F temperature loss (and recovery in sliding pressure)
Six 50% scenarios run:

1. Quantifying the Benefits
Outcomes: Turbine Net Cycle Efficiency at Half Load
Case 1: Fixed Pressure HRH Steam Temp 970°F
Case 2: Fixed Pressure HRH Steam Temp 1000°F
Both cases: Sliding Pressure HRH Steam Temp 1000°F

Model-based Sliding Pressure Control
Simulation results showing the effect on pressure
response (light blue) when
a feedforward to fuel (green) is added to the fuel demand and
the pressure setpoint is passed through a second order lag.
