Preparing a Computer Program to Evaluate the Performance of Garri Combined Cycle Power Plant

Abstract

This study looking for benefit possibility of computer device in Garri Combined Cycle 1&2 thermal power generation to improve performance of plants . The researcher developed the program by MATLAB using GUI to evaluate performance and status of the plants . It is content main interface and status interface . Main interface content empty texts boxes to enter the data . Primary data must be entered at first time (primary value selection) and daily data then press calculate . After first time daily data just should be entered by user . when calculate has been pressed some tables should be appeared . Station power generation table , it’s content power generated , power factor generation , power auxiliary consumption , planned energy losses , unplanned energy losses and availability for each machine . Also resources consumption and supply table , it’s content LDO and HCGO fuel consumption for each machine , total pump able fuel stock in tanks , total fuel stock ,river side supply water , and demin water quantity for each plant . Also units availability and remarks table , it’s content availability , status and last power generated recorded . Also specific fuel consumption table and efficiency table for each machine . Status interface content empty texts boxes for plant one and plant two to enter daily power generated in each hour to get graphics show user status of each machine .
