Optimizacija vazduhom hlađenog kondenzatora termoenergetskog bloka snage 300 MW

Abstract

In the time of sudden climate changes and increasing demands for electricity production, water as a cooling medium in the condensation systems of modern thermal power plants is becoming decreasingly available and increasingly expensive as a resource. Precisely for this reason, the number of modern chemical and thermal power plants in the world that use air-cooled condensers as part of the condensation system is increasing. Since air-cooled condensers use the surrounding air as the heat sink, condensation systems of this type are extremely sensitive to changes in the environment, both in terms of outside temperature, and in terms of wind speed and direction, and of course insolation. An additional problem is that changes in the mentioned external parameters are quite difficult to predict with certainty, which makes this type of condensation system only conditionally reliable. All this leaves quite a lot of room for improving the reliability and improving the operation of air-cooled condensation systems in modern thermal power plants, which is precisely the topic of this doctoral dissertation.
