Power Plant Life Management and Performance Improvement
ISBN: 9781845697266 / Angielski / Twarda / 704 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Coal- and gas-based power plants currently supply the largest proportion of the world's power generation capacity, and are required to operate to increasingly stringent environmental standards. Higher temperature combustion is therefore being adopted to improve plant efficiency and to maintain net power output given the energy penalty that integration of advanced emissions control systems cause. However, such operating regimes also serve to intensify degradation mechanisms within power plant systems, potentially affecting their reliability and lifespan. Power plant life management and...
