Steam turbine agility
Automated start-up control, revised permissives, and rotor stress management using Model-Based Control to enable fast, repeatable steam turbine start times.
Attemperator control
Model-based control of attemperation flow to better regulate steam temperature during start-up and transients, enabling more stable operation, fewer trips, and improved efficiency.
AutoBlend
Automation of the HRSG blending process to better manage steam temperature and flow when bringing additional gas turbines online in combined cycle plants. This enables more stable operation, fewer trips, and more energy production for the lead gas turbine.
HRSG boiler response
Improved setpoint management and tuning of HRSG drum level control to enable more stable operation during starts and transients, and fewer trips.
SCR control
Model-based control of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system ammonia flow to enable enhanced operation during start-up and transients, resulting in less ammonia slip and lower overall NOx emissions.
