Modelica Open Library for Power Plant Simulation: Design and Experimental Validation
Francesco Casella, Alberto Leva · Virtual Community of Pathological Anatomy (University of Castilla La Mancha) · 2003
The open Modelica library ThermoPower for the simulation of thermal power plants is presented, by illustrating the modelling principles and the main features of the developed models. The library has been validated against experimental data coming from a laboratory drum boiler, and the main results are shown in the paper. The library, plant model, and validation data are publicly available through the Web.
