Abstract

This paper presents a simulation study for the model-based synthesis and commissioning of the flue gas path control in a coal-fired power plant. Thanks to the modular model structure and the complexity tailoring capabilities offered by the adopted Object Oriented Modelling paradigm, critical manoeuvres - such as those for a fan or main fuel trip - could be tested in a timely manner and with good accuracy. Both simulation and experimental data are reported, and some discussions are carried out on the proposed approach as a general modus operandi for simulation-assisted commissioning.
