Sensitivity and Parametric Bound Analysis of an Electric Power Generation GP Model: Optimal Steam Turbine Exhaust Annulus and Condenser Sizes.

Abstract

As a further demonstration of practical applicability, a posynomial programming model for the optimal selection of steam turbine exhaust annulus and condenser sizes developed by Ecker and Wiebking is solved and analyzed for optimal value function sensitivities and parametric optimal value bounds. This provides the essential information for conducting a thorough cost benefit analysis over the large parameter changes considered, for this extremely important class of energy applications.
