The following slides summarize the key points ofthe lectures that I gave this quarter; at least as Isee them.
A lot of information is discussed in this class,while it all is important in one way or the other,there are some key points that you should takeaway from each discussion.
Review all of your lecture notes and the slides.
If you have any questions, or feel that you needsome help, between now and the midterm pleasecontact The TAs or me:

Combined Cycle Thermodynamics
Using the waste heat from the Gas TurbineBrayton Cycle in a steam Rankine cyclemarkedly increases the efficiency( decreasesthe Heat Rate)

ASME PTC 4.1 Heat Loss Efficiency Method
There is more than just the Thermodynamic efficiency to consider. In the case of asteam cycle you need to consider how much of the chemical energy in the fuelcan actually be used to make steam; what are the main losses?

Cost Of Electricity EstimatesCost Elements
Capital Cost ( what it cost to build)
Variable O&M ( primarily fuel); depends on the use
Fixed O&M ( routine maintenance, repairs, staff)-Sometimes called Other than Fuel
TermsOvernite Costs ( capital costs assuming plant builtovernight, not over 3-10 yrs)
Cost of Money (or interest rate paid on a loan)
Inflation rate ( decrease in the value of $)
Present Value ( current value of a series of paymentsmade in the future)
Discount Rate ( definition can vary, can include,interest, inflation, expected profit; simplistically =Interest-inflation)

COE $/MWhr 40 41 77
In the spreadsheet I used in class I did Not Calculate XNPV for Fixed O&Mor Fuel Why?
For fixed O&M mainly salaries , unless you have other informationlike history of union negotiations will likely increase close toinflation. So, if I escalated the costs by the inflation rate then did thenet present value calculation I end up with the current costFor Fuel, similar argument, unless you have information on futurefuel prices( perhaps a mine mouth plant where you have hadnegotiations on future fuel costs that can be projected into future),these are difficult to forecast so it is common to just use todays fuel

Capital Cost vs. Size
Capital Cost Usually expressed as $/KW
$/KW will vary with the size of the plant
Typically $/KW decreases with increasing size-Why?Engineering costs dont scale linearlyEquipment purchases might not scale linearly
400MW Coal- uses 4 pulverizers ( 3-in service, 1-spare)800MW Coal-8 pulverizers? No probably 7 (6-in sevice, 1-spare)The cost of a continuous emissions monitor in the stackdoes not vary much with size
C1/C2~(S1/S2)^n
C=Cost, S=Sizen= scaling factor, typically n=2/3
