Training manual for students of thermal energy specials. The . - M. : High. school, 1980. 240 s. , il. The book describes the principal schemes and characteristics of energotechnological installations of thermal power plants using sulfuric fuels, and developed a methodology for their technical and economic optimization. The results of numerous studies, design developments and tests of pilot plants used as the initial data for the projection of thermal power plants with energy-technological steam-turbine and steam-gas blocks. Examples of calculations show the influence of the most important factors on the passage of processes in gasification and pyrolysis devices, as well as " steam generators and other units of the energy part of the block. Intended for students of energy universities and faculties; can be useful for employees of design and research organizations.
