Combined Cycle: Heat Recovery Steam Generators

In this course, we’ll focus on heat recovery steam generators as they apply to combined cycle power plants. We’ll cover some fundamentals related to the basic types of heat recovery steam generators (HRSGs) and to some general design considerations and we’ll look at the components found in the various sections of an HRSG.
