Whether you are an owner, purchaser or financier SOAPP-REPO can facilitate the valuation of assets and development of strategies to refocus those units that are "on the margin" in today's competitive market. SOAPP-REPO integrates process design, costing, and financial analysis of combined cycle repowering of existing fossil steam plants. This interactive software product supports the analysis of repowering existing coal, oil, or gas-fired boilers with combustion turbines and heat recovery steam generators.</p> <p>You first establish a reuse plan for the steam turbines, feedwater heaters, and balance-of-plant equipment and enter critical data for the existing steam cycle and reused equipment. You then specify the repowered plant by selecting a combustion turbine model and the other major new equipment and inputting some key unit, site, fuel, and economic data. The WorkStation then configures the repowered plant, sizes and costs the new equipment, and performs detailed performance and financial analyses of the resulting conceptual design.</p> <h3>How can SOAPP help?</h3> <p>Decisions involving electricity generation are no longer technical issues with engineering answers. These decisions are interdisciplinary issues requiring technical, cost and financial data. SOAPP-REPO was designed from the beginning to support valuation of existing assets and establishing strategic project goals for combined cycle repowering of existing fossil steam units, including the development of conceptual designs. Project costing and financial evaluation were not after-thoughts, patched on at the end. The WorkStation integrates technical and financial analysis in one product that fully automates many labor-intensive tasks. This frees you to focus on the critical issues that define a successful project in a competitive market place. Significant opportunities for reducing generating costs, increasing net income, and reducing risks are left untapped in many projects. The complex, often hidden, interaction of site conditions, economic and market factors, and financial strategies with equipment, process, and plant design create these possibilities. Your key to uncovering these hidden opportunities lies in using the SOAPP-REPO Combined Cycle Repowering WorkStation to evaluate a wide variety of equipment choices and design criteria over the range of expected economic, market, and financial conditions.</p> <p align="center"><img src="workstation/images/CC%20Rep5.jpg" alt="wpeD.jpg (28882 bytes)" border="0" vspace="10" align="center" width="442" height="235"> <p>You can use plant conceptual designs created with SOAPP-REPO to evaluate project feasibility and strategies, to support financial decisions or technology selections, to aid in strategic planning, and as the starting point for bid specifications and final design. <h3>Major Product Features</h3> <p>Version 3.0 of the SOAPP-REPO Combined Cycle Repowering WorkStation features up-to-date cost and performance information, and new features that expand the software's capabilities and enable users to more thoroughly evaluate potential combined cycle repowering scenarios.</p> <p align="center"><img src="workstation/images/CC%20Rep6.jpg" alt="wpeE.jpg (21237 bytes)" border="0" vspace="10" align="center" width="346" height="255"><br> </p> <ul> <li><strong>Multiple Steam Cycle Configurations<br> </strong>Up to three HP feedwater heaters, four LP heaters, and one deaerator can be included in a repowered cycle configuration, enabling you to explore relative performance and economic effects of retaining or removing feedwater heaters. In addition, the enhanced heat balance allows more accurate control over extraction rates and duct burner calculations.</li> <li><strong>Steam Turbine Advisor<br> </strong>This Advisor helps you quickly explore the feasibility of several alternate steam turbine configuration and performance scenarios and assists you by entering the appropriate data into the WorkStation. The Advisor integrates steam turbine design calculations, qualitative assessment, and historical information to profile the existing steam turbine and address allowable and suggested last row blade loading limits, performance sensitivity analysis of closing off extractions and/or changing throttle flow, and economic ranking of possible options.</li> <li><strong>Condenser Advisor<br> </strong>This Advisor integrates condenser design calculations, qualitative assessment, and historical information to profile the existing condenser system and then addresses the effects of tube condition, tube surface area, tube material, circulating water flow rate, and heat rejection system on back pressure/ performance and economics. Using this Advisor, you can explore alternate condenser configurations and performance scenarios, decide on the most promising option, and have the appropriate data entered into the WorkStation.</li> <li><strong>Combustion Turbine Advisor<br> </strong>This Advisor helps you identify combustion turbine models that are most likely to fit the repowering conceptual design energy balance. The latest performance, emissions, and cost data, made available by the manufacturers for over 100 combustion turbine models, including both 50 Hz and 60 Hz machines.</li> </ul> <h3>Analysis Capabilities</h3> <p>The analyses performed by the SOAPP-REPO Combined Cycle Repowering WorkStation are completely integrated. You input basic process information on the existing plant, new equipment selections, key design criteria and other project site and economic information, and the WorkStation validates your inputs, configures all process connections, and performs heat and material balances. The heat balance calculations perform an entire unit heat and material balance and determine flows, state point conditions at each connection port of each component, and the power output of the generating unit. The WorkStation uses this information to size new plant equipment, using algorithms derived from design practice and manufacturers' data. Plant construction cost estimates are developed by the WorkStation from equipment cost estimates correlated to the sizing information. O&M and fuel cost estimates are in turn derived from the preceding results and additional correlations. Finally, the WorkStation performs a financial analysis using the completed conceptual design information.</p> <p>You can choose to have the WorkStation generate any or all of the following conceptual design deliverables:</p> <ul> <li>Design criteria</li> <li>Equipment reuse plan</li> <li>Heat balance</li> <li>Performance and emissions summaries</li> <li>Equipment list (includes sizing)</li> <li>Process flow and piping diagrams</li> <li>General arrangement drawings</li> <li>Capital cost estimates</li> <li>O&M cost estimates</li> <li>Financial analysis</li> </ul> <p>In addition to the standard reports generated by SOAPP-REPO, the drawings can be exported as AutoCad compatible files, and all other reports can be either exported as delimited text files or "copied and pasted" into other programs for additional analysis or reporting.</p> <p>The SOAPP family of interactive software products provides you with information on current power plant technologies and enables you to quickly create unique, detailed, project-specific plant conceptual designs. Comprehensive process and equipment models, combined with sophisticated, embedded engineering expertise enable the SOAPP software to make engineering decisions automatically, freeing you to concentrate on only the most critical process, equipment, and design criteria selections. SOAPP software helps you target project design simultaneously to project financial requirements, market and site conditions, and fuel and consumable prices.</td> <td width="10%" valign="top"></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="2%" valign="top" height="15"></td> <td width="88%" valign="top" colspan="3" height="15"></td> <td width="10%" valign="top" height="15"></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="2%" valign="top"></td> <td width="88%" valign="top" colspan="3"><cite><a href="http://www.soapp.com/legal/notices.htm#Copyright Notice" target="main">Copyright � 1997, 1998, 1999, 2005</a><br> <br> <a href="http://www.soapp.com/legal/notices.htm#Trademark Notice" target="main">SOAPP is a registered trademark of EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute, Inc.).</a><br> <a href="http://www.soapp.com/legal/notices.htm#Licensing Notice" target="main">Products contain EPRI Technology.</a><br> </cite> <div align="center"> <center> <table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="18" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%" align="center" valign="top"><a href="../default.htm" target="_top"><img src="../../images/SOAPP_LLC_Logo_443x55.gif" alt="Reload Navigation - Go to SOAPP Software Core Page" border="0" align="center" width="443" height="55"></a> <p><cite><a href="../default.htm" target="_top" style="color: rgb(192,192,192)"><font color="#808080">[Reload Navigation - Go to SOAPP Software Core Page]</font></a></cite></p> </td> </tr> </table> </center> </div> <p align="center"> </p> <p align="right"><cite>Last modified: Friday, July 19, 2002</cite></td> <td width="10%" valign="top"></td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
