Technical and economical evaluation of a high-temperature air heater intended for integrated gasification combined cycle unit

Abstract

In this paper the costs of creating a high-temperature air heater intended for the integrated gasification combined cycle unit developed by the authors are estimated and are compared with a steam boiler. The results can be used not only in the further development of the integrated gasification combined cycle plant under consideration, but also be interesting to specialists involved in the development of various high-temperature heat exchangers.
