Thermal Power Plants

Since producing our first steam turbine in 1959, Fuji Electric has manufactured more than 464 steam turbines having a total combined output capacity that exceeds 23,619 MW, and has delivered these turbines to various countries throughout the world. In the industrial sector, Fuji Electric shipped Japan's first supercritical, pure transformation plant in 1973, achieving higher operating efficienc...

Reliability and Availability Analysis of Fusion Power Plants

Major efforts are underway to develop fusion energy for use in electric power production in the furture. While fusion reactor concepts are being developed, appropriate attention must be given to problems relvant to the utility requirements which are likely to be encountered in the commercialization phase. In this paper the expected fusion plant availability is assessed in detail due to the impo...

Predictive control of thermal Power Plants

This work presents the results of a project aimed at verifying the applicability of industrial model predictive control (MPC) to thermal Power Plants. The research is motivated by the need to improve the efficiency of power plants so as to cope with the high levels of competition induced by the deregulation of the energy market. A detailed plant simulator, already used for operators training an...
