Guidance page FG11 Guidance page for practical work: optimization of combined cycles by the pinch method (setting out and correction)
Note :
The objective of the practical work is to study the implementation of the pinch method for the optimization of combined cycle power plants and show how they can be realistically modeled with Thermoptim. To do this work, it is necessary to have access to the Professional or Industrial version of Thermoptim
Its value is to guide you step by step in this process a bit difficult. It has two parts: the first (section 3) is a reminder of the pinch method and the second (section 4) is the practical implementation of this method
