About this Training Course

This 5 full-day course provides detailed description of all performance testing methods for all combined cycle power plant equipment including gas turbines, steam turbines, heat recovery steam generators (HRSG), condensers, pumps, deaerators, and feedwater heaters.

The methodology, and code requirements for the performance tests for all combined cycle power plant equipment will be covered thoroughly in this seminar. The preparatory work and instrumentation required for each test will be described in detail in this seminar. The efficiency calculations for all the equipment used in combined cycle power plants will be covered in-depth in this seminar.

The main focus in the seminar is on:-

• ASME PTC 46 Performance Test Code on Overall Plant Performance,
• ASME PTC 22 Performance Testing Guidelines for Gas Turbines,
• Heat rate calculations,
• Correction factors,
• Correction curves,
• Uncertainty analysis,
• Acceptance test procedures,
• Performance-guarantee verification,
• Test methodology, and
• Practical applications for Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) and
• Owner performance assessments during commissioning and testing.

This seminar is a must for anyone who is involved in performance testing of combined cycle power plant equipment because it provides detailed methodology and code requirements for all performance tests as well as heat rate and power output calculations in combined cycle power plants.
