A device for assisting in assigning setting values of a compressor operation controller for starting or stopping one or more compressors, collecting discharged air of the compressors in an air tank, and supplying the air tank as a compressed air source in a predetermined pressure range, includes: an input unit that receives piping network information which is an element of a pressure loss of a piping flow from the compressor to a pressure control position of the controller, compressor specifications which are an upper limit of a discharge pressure of the compressor and a number of compressor starts/stops, a supply flow rate condition which is time change data of a flow rate flowing from the pressure control position of the controller, and a supply pressure condition which is a lower limit of the supply pressure at the pressure control position of the controller.

Device and method for assisting in assigning compressor controller settings values, and compressor operation control system

There is provided a combined cycle power plant in which a high-pressure steam turbine and an intermediate-pressure steam turbine can operate in a state where amounts of thermal effect thereof are close to a limit value, and capable of reducing start-up time. A combined cycle power plant includes: an exhaust heat recovery boiler that includes a high-pressure superheater which superheats steam for a high-pressure steam turbine, and a reheater which reheats steam for an intermediate-pressure steam turbine; bypass pipes through which steam bypasses the high-pressure superheater and the reheater; bypass valves that regulate flow rates of steam which flows through the bypass pipes; and a bypass controller that controls the bypass valves such that a difference between thermal effect-amount margins of the turbines is decreased.
