Dynamic Simulation of Oxyfuel CO_2 Processing Plants

摘要

This paper illustrates the application of dynamic simulation for the development of CO_2 processing plants which are part of oxyfuel power plants. It is shown how dynamic simulation models are used to study transient processes such as load changes and disturbances, to evaluate and improve process design concepts, and to develop control and operational strategies. Furthermore, key success factors for dynamic simulation, such as appropriate model visualization and an early integration into the engineering workflow, are discussed. In order to study the behavior of the entire oxyfuel process, the application of model reduction methods is proposed. This facilitates the integration of dynamic simulation models that were initially implemented using different simulation tools, into a common simulation platform.
