value at current operating conditions of the unit.
Note 1:

service, or operational changes, for examples feed water heater 3 is out of
service, electrical feed water pump working instead of steam pump etc.

be calculated. This requirement applies to the "performance" items listed

The first step in utilizing this link shall be to develop a
first-principle interactive model that is tuned to load
variant heat balances (i.e. 100%, 75%, 50%, & 25 %).
This model shall provide design parameters for the
plant thermal cycle. Design parameters are based on
the equipment vendor design and they may be values
that the plant has never or could never achieve
The second step, the interactive model will need to be
tuned to acceptance test data or some other actual
plant data. and this model will provide target
parameters that represent realistic best achievable
conditions. These target parameters for comparison
are essential in achieving payback from the System
