EFFICIENCY ANALYSIS OF A STEAM TURBINE COGENERATION PLANT WITH CAPACITY 5,7 MWel
Abstract
In industry, where heat and electric energy is to be used simultaneously, the most efficient way for energy supply is the combined production of heat and power in a cogeneration steam turbine plant. In addition to renewable energy, cogeneration plants are today very productive energy systems. In the INA-Maziva Rijeka refinery, a CHP plant has been built with a capacity of 5,7 MWel. For combined heat and power production, these cogeneration plants are equipped with a steam condensing turbine with one controlled and one non-controlled extraction. This paper presents the main technical characteristics and gives an efficiency analysis of this cogeneration steam turbine plant.Downloads
