Abstract

Assignments of the vessels change suddenly sometimes, so the marine steam vessels need better thermoeconomic. Based on the thermodynamic calculation theory, thermodynamic calculation models of equipments in marine steam power plants are developed. Then, the thermoeconomic calculation model of marine steam power plants is established with index of fuel consumption of one nautical mile. Also utility software is developed for thermoeconomic calculation of marine steam power plants. The result indicates that the thermoeconomic calculation model is practical and efficient. These result can be used as references for the settlement of thermoeconomic analysis of other types of power plants.
