Abstract

The aim of this work was to studies of the thermodynamic performance of Alkhoms steam power plant, which was established in 1982. The study included the thermodynamic parameters analysis of design and operational cases at the time of this study, as well as making comparison between them. The thermodynamic parameters comprise the producing capacity (specific work) and the thermal efficiency of the steam power plant. A steam power plant of (120 MW) with a typical design of commercial steam power plant was demonstrated. The programming of the performance model for Alkhoms steam power plant was developed utilizing FORTRAN 90. The results of the study revealed that the thermal efficiency of the plant in the operational case decreased by 5.43 % compared to the design case. In addition, the feed water temperature in the operational case decreased by 74 oC .

Keywords: Power Plant, Steam Turbine, Thermodynamic, Thermal Efficiency.
