Role of reliability optimization in green-house gases emission using integrated cooling system: (Optimization and computational techniques for green energy systems)

A comprehensive integrated cooling system (ICS) is presented for the uninterrupted supply of treated and cooling water at desired pressure rate. Work presented in this paper is helpful for the effective cooling of large size electrical generators and for condensation purpose. In other words, ICS contributes in performance improvement of condensation process, and also to the portions of feed-water control. Thereby, it enhances the performance of power generation automation. A novel ICS clubbed with highly reliable and efficient process automation system is proposed. The work includes an optimized process dedicated to enhance operation and maintenance durations (active operation hours) of the ICS of thermal power plants. Increase in active operation hours of the module is directly proportional to improvement in electrical gain, and thus, reduction in emission of flu-gases emission. Entire process can be controlled and monitored through human-machine interface (HMI) in realtime. The effectiveness of real-time featured proposed ICS is validated by computer simulation through designing a human-machine interface. It meets the specifications guided by IEEE C37.1-2007, IEC 61131-2 and IEEE 1413-2010.
