Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

By way of analyzing the operating characteristics of a gasifier in an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plant the basic configuration of a control system of the gasifier has been determined. On the basis of the gasifier dynamic characteristics a control system was designed. The results of its simulation indicate that the coupling factor between the two major links of the gasifier, namely, its temperature and syngas heating value, is relatively low. By using the control system designed by the authors its is possible to fulfill the main control aim of the gasifier.
