  • Abstract
    The electric power business is changing, and part of this change is an increase in the number and size of combined-cycle power plants in operation. Because the response characteristics of combined-cycle plants are different from those of conventional steam boiler plants, models for these plants are needed. The purpose of this paper is to encourage the development of standard, consensus models for combined-cycle plants by illustrating instances where utility planners could use these models
