Abstract

To address the large temperature difference in the air heater (AH) inlet of a traditional exhaust heat utilization system and energy grade mismatch problems during the heat and mass transfer processes, this study proposed a new multi-level waste heat cascade utilization system. Based on a principle of “temperature-to-port and cascade utilization”, this system uses the boiler side high-temperature flue gas and low-temperature air, and the turbine side high-temperature feed water and low-temperature condensate water, to conduct cross heat exchange according to the energy grade matching principle. Combined with a typical 1000 MW coal-fired unit, the heat transfer characteristics and energy-saving benefits of the new system were analyzed. The results showed that the new system has excellent performance: the heat rate decreased by 91 kJ/kWh, coal consumption decreased by 3.3 g/kWh, and power generation efficiency increased to 49.39%.
