Power Plant Design 101

presented by

RESC member and Past President Rob Harris

Abstract:
I will talk about power plants from the beginning of human civilization up to the present time. This includes the developments that have led to what we have today.

I will also describe where we are headed in the near future with power plants. It is interesting with all the new developments that are occurring. Beyond that, it is anybody's ideas that the human mind can imagine that will drive power plant technology.


Biography:
I am a mechanical engineer with 40 years of experience in coal fired boiler plants, working on many university power plants along with many power plants on military bases. I have spent 18 years, on and off, working as a civilian contractor on the Ft. Wainwright central heat and power plant and the steam distribution system. The power plant provides 15 megawatts of electrical power for the base and enough export steam to handle 354 building on the base.

Other work has been pipe stress analysis, mainly of steam piping. This is necessary to insure the safe construction of the steam piping. It includes studies of existing steam piping systems to ensure that they are still operating within the allowable stress limitations.
