Preface -- Plant simulation modules and functional groups -- Numerical methods -- Thermodynamic and transport properties of materials -- Conservation equations for flow systems -- Static components -- Turbomachines -- Heat transfer -- Heat exchangers -- Temperatures through component walls -- Furnaces, fuels and heat release -- Boiler circuits and steam generation -- Two-phase effects in steam flows -- Steam turbines -- Steam condensation -- Deaerators and feedwater heaters -- Simulation of complex networks.

Computer℗¡Simulation of Thermal Plant Operations℗¡provides an in-depth℗¡discussion of℗¡thermal plant simulation: dynamic simulation of plants which produce, exchange and otherwise utilize heat as their working medium. The book adopts a fundamental approach to the subject, providing an overview of simulation concepts, descriptions of suitable computer environments, reviews℗¡of relevant computation methods and fundamental thermodynamics, detailed examinations of basic conservation equations, and in-depth developments of specific simulation models. Illustrated with photographs of equipment and numerical examples based on real plant operations,℗¡Computer Simulation of Thermal Plant Operations℗¡is an essential volume for all℗¡chemical, mechanical and control engineers involved with operations, control and optimization, and℗¡operator training.
