Abstract
Results of detailed computations (performed with the use of mathematical models of dual-purpose turbine plants) of the effect of the main operating factors on the energy and economic efficiency of the production of additional condensation power in the periods of power generation (at partially loaded heating extractions and flow of live steam below the rated value) are presented as applied to actual conditions of operation of turbines of different types. The results obtained show that the additional power can be quite competitive in the power market (at least in peak demand periods of the day) and that it is expedient to use dual-purpose turbines for managing electric demand.
