Supercritical Plant Startup Control

Coal fired Supercritical Power Plants are an integral component of the strategy for many generation companies. With a higher pressure/temperature range near 4300 psi and 1100°F, supercritical plants operate more efficiently than their subcritical counterparts. Whether an older design base load plant is now called upon to cycle more often, or a newer Supercritical plant designed to do so, it is imperative that the startup system perform at optimal levels.
