The Enginomix Power Plant Library (EPP_Lib) is focused on the design, analysis and optimization of conventional power systems. Building on their decades of experience as the original developers of the GateCycle heat balance software, Enginomix has put all the capabilities of GateCycle, and much more, into EPP_Lib. This allows you now to have the power and accuracy of GateCycle available in the easy-to-use, open-software architecture of IPSEpro. Using IPSEpro and EPP_Lib, you can model an infinite variety of conventional power plant processes, including all forms of combined-cycle and conventional coal boiler plants. Enginomix also offers extended versions of EPP_Lib for modeling pulp and paper systems (EPP_P_Lib), advanced solid-fuel processes (EPP_S_Lib) and advanced geothermal technologies (EPP_B_Lib).
With IPSEpro’s open-equation framework, you can combine EPP_Lib with other IPSEpro libraries, including CSP_Lib
for solar thermal plant, PGP_Lib
for biomass technologies and LTP_Lib
for low-temperature applications, to create an integrated, best-in-class power system design software package for modeling conventional, solar thermal, biomass and geothermal energy conversion and power generation processes.
EPP_Lib includes detailed design and off-design icon component models for key power generation equipment, including steam turbines, gas turbines, coal boilers, heat exchangers, condensers (air and water cooled), pumps, pipes, separators and other key process equipment. EPP_Lib incorporates industry-standard calculation methodologies, including Spencer-Cotton-Cannon formulations for steam turbine efficiency, Stodola-ellipse calculations for steam turbine pressure-flow relationships, and HEI methodologies for water-cooled steam condenser design and off-design performance predictions.
The advanced level of flexibility and engineering detail in EPP_Lib enable you to use IPSEpro for detailed power system optimization calculations.
