    Taking the 650 MW supercritical boiler in a power plant as an example, to guarantee safety operation of the boiler during deep peak regulation process, a calculation model for flow and pressure of the water wall was established by equivalent loop method, while a heat load model was set up for a single tube in the spirally wound tubes, based on which, hydrodynamic characteristics of the water wall were calculated under ultra-low load conditions, and subsequently the outer wall temperature distribution at outlet of the spirally wound tubes and the mass velocity distribution of tubes in the upper and lower furnace were obtained. Based on the verified model, calculations and analyses were conducted on hydrodynamic safety of the water wall under 30% boiler maximum continuous rating (BMCR). Results show that the curve of pressure drop and mass flow in the spirally wound tubes of the supercritical boiler exhibits a one valued feature under 30% BMCR, and the pulsation of the tubes lies in a stable region with a large margin.

    The method for energy consumption of cascade heating system was summarized. In the cascade heating system, the back pressure of the high back pressure exhaust steam is increased by utilizing the middle exhaust steam through the steam ejector to further heats the circulating water of the heat network, thus increasing the utilization of the high back pressure exhaust steam.The influence of the key adjustable factors on the system energy consumption index of the system was analyzed through experiments. Results show that the coal consumption can be reduced by increasing the amount of circulation water and decreasing the return water temperature of the heating system. The coal consumption reaches the minimum when the pressure boost ratio of steam ejector is controlled near the design point.There is no benefit for coal consumption by increasing the back pressure and steam pressure of the unit, and it just need to meet the working requirements of the steam injector.

    Effects of the following crack parameters on the thermal performance of a round bar concrete for solar thermal storage were researched through numerical simulation and theory analysis, such as the shape, center angle, width and position, while the changes of temperature differences of cracks during discharging heat process were given. Quantitative analyses were conducted on the relationship of thermal stress and each parameter by function fitting, so as to obtain the safety operation range of crack parameters. Results show that both of the temperature differences of arc- and chord-shaped cracks increase rapidly at first and then decrease gradually during discharging heat progress, and the temperature difference has a positive relationship with the center angle, width and position of cracks in generally. The obtained safety operation range of crack parameters can serve as a reference for the prevention of the damage of the solar thermal storage concrete.

    Taking the existing flue gas purification process of a 660 MW coal-fired unit as an example, an analysis was conducted on the flue gas pollutant synergistic removal technology, and the flue gas purification system of the unit was retrofitted with the optimized technology. Results show that after adopting the flue gas pollutant synergistic removal technology, the emissions of flue gas dust, nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide and mercury all can meet the requirements of ultra-clean emission standards, while all the removal efficiencies of above flue gas pollutants are improved. This may serve as a reference for similar coal-fired units with ultra-clean emission retrofits.

    Due to the change of coal quality and load fluctuation for a 300 MW unit, the NOx concentration deviation at the outlet of SCR denitration system is large. To ensure the NOx emission does not exceed standard, excessive ammonia injection inevitably aggravates the of ammonium bisulfate generation in the downstream air preheater. The ammonia injection optimization adjustment test was carried out for the SCR denitration system of the unit.Through multiple optimization and adjustment, the relative standard deviation of NOx concentration at the outlet section of SCR denitration reactor on the A side was reduced from 51.7% to 8.4% under the test condition, and the relative standard deviation of NOx concentration at the outlet section of SCR denitration reactor on the B side was reduced from 28.0% to 9.8% under the test conditiont, and the average ammonia escape concentration at the A and B sides was reduced from 2.10×10-6 and 3.10×10-6 before adjustment to 0.30×10-6 and 1.83×10-6, showing the optimization effect of ammonia injection was good.

    The causes of TP347H tube burst in aplaten reheater of circulating fluidized bed boiler were studied based on the macroscopic analysis, chemical composition analysis, mechanical property analysis, metallographic structure observation, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscope analysis and energy dispersive spectrum analysis. Results show that the main cause of TP347H tube burst is due to the long-term overheating. After long-term operation of the reheater, severe high-temperature creep phenomenon occurs in the local part of TP347H tube, the wall thickness is reduced, the thickness of oxide layer on the inner part exceeds the standard, a large number of creep holes in the metallographic structure, and the mechanical properties of the material decrease. At the same time, Nb (C, N) precipitated phase exists in the tissue with large size and is randomly distributed in the grain as inclusions, which further degrades the material performance.

    Broken pipe samples of tubular air preheater from an overseas power plant were tested by chemical composition analysis, metallography analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM)/energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis to identify the reasons for air leakage. The air leakage is caused by low-temperature corrosion and can be inhibited by corrosion-resistant materials and bypass air ducts.

    Taking a MPS-type medium speed mill in a thermal power plant as the research object, a gray box model was established for the medium speed mill with dynamic characteristics, and the dynamic self-learning particle swarm optimization (DSLPSO) algorithm was applied to the efficient identification of unknown parameters of the model, after which, the model was verified. Results show that the output data from the established model can better follow the actual output data of the mill, and through adopting the model, the outlet parameters of the mill can be predicted and the online monitoring can be realized for the water content of the pulverized coal. By controlling the flow rate and temperature of the inlet primary air, the water content of the pulverized coal and the outlet temperature of the mill can be effectively adjusted.

    A study was conducted on the modeling of an ultra-supercritical boiler-turbine coordination system under full load condition, following which, the structure of the model was determined by analyzing the characteristics of the ultra-supercritical unit respectively in dry and wet state. The parameters of the model were then optimized by using the teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm. Finally, the model was tested with actual data to prove its validity.

    To solve the problem of the serious contamination occurring in the rear heating surface of a 350 MW super critical boiler co-firing with high sodium coal, combined with analyses on the contamination characteristic of coal ash, the experience for co-firing at different unit loads was analyzed and summarized through co-firing experiments. Results show that the contamination of the high sodium coal is not only related to the content of sodium and potassium, but also closely related to the unit load, the co-firing ratio and the silica content. This may serve as a reference for the co-firing with the high sodium coal in similar units.
