Abstract

Effective energy utilization and its management for minimizing irreversibility has made human to look for efficient
energy consumption & conversion. In this research, the useful concept of energy and exergy utilization is analyzed, and
applied to the boiler system of 690 TPH boiler in 210 MW coal based thermal power plant. In a boiler, the energy and exergy
efficiencies are found to be 73.96% and 39.85%, respectively. A boiler energy and exergy efficiencies are compared with
others work as well and parametric analysis of the exergy destruction and efficiencies in relation with reference state
temperature indicates that exergy destruction increases with increasing reference state temperature as exergy efficiencies
were decreasing. It has been found that the combustion chamber is the major contributor for exergy destruction followed by
heat exchanger of a boiler system.
