Simulation of a coal-fired power plant using mathematical programming algorithms in order to optimize its efficiency

Since most of the world's electric energy production is mainly based on fossil fuels and need for better efficiency of the energy conversion systems is imminent, mathematical programming algorithms were applied for the simulation and optimization of a detailed model of an existing lignite-fired...
