Introduction to the simulation of power plants for EBSILON(R)Professional Version 15

EBSILON(R)Professional is a powerful modeling system developed for the simulation of thermodynamic cycles. It is suitable as a tool for plant planning, design and optimization of thermal power plants with a steam process or a gas turbine process as well as plants with renewable energies (biomass, wind energy, solar energy and geothermal energy). The introduction describes the basic principles and the working steps to create a model of the plant. Furthermore, the work with the internal programming environment EbsScript and the handling of the calculation of time series is presented.
