Comprehensive optimization of CHPP operation with regard of achieving technological sovereignty of the Russian Federation and Industry 4.0 concept

We conduct joint theoretical, computational and experimental work in the following areas:

  • Thermal Power Plants
  • CHPP operation modes
  • District heating systems
  • Hydrogen production and utilization at CHPPs
  • Energy utilization of solid municipal wastes
  • Heat pumping units in the CHPP circuit
  • Low potential heat utilization
  • Monitoring and diagnostics systems for power equipment

We are also interested in joint research, our research group is interested in cooperation with teams dealing with the following topics:

  • Physicochemical processes of thermal gasification of organic-containing raw materials

In one of the chapters of the research work an enlarged calculation and analysis of typical solutions for improvement of thermal schemes of heat generating units of a combined heat and power plant was performed. As a direction of optimization of TFC scheme of CHPP-15 the application of steam-compression heat pumps as well as absorption bromistolithium heat pumps for reduction of heat load of boilers of deaeration unit was chosen. As a source of low-potential heat (LPH) the return network water is considered, and as a consumer - make-up water of the heating system.
