Summary, in English

In the electricity market of today, with increasing demand

for electricity production on short notice, the

combined cycle power plant stands high regarding fast

start-ups and efficiency. In this paper it has been

shown how the dynamic start-up procedure of a combined

cycle power plant can be optimized using JModelica.

org, proposing a way to minimize the start-up

time while maximizing the power production during

start-up. The physical models have been developed

in Modelica, adapted to suit optimization purposes

and extended to optimization problems. Constraints

keeping the lifetime consumption of critically stressed

components under control are limiting factors. The

plant models have been successfully optimized to full

load.
