Abstract
The invention refers to a method for operating a steam turbine power plant, and also a device for generating steam for the purpose of power generation. The method for operating a steam turbine power plant comprises at least one steam generator which is fired with a solid, granular fuel, for example with brown coal, wherein the fuel is first subject to an indirect drying in a fluidized bed drier and the fluidized bed drier is at least partially heated with steam from the water-steam cycle of the steam generator. The method is characterized in that temperature controlling in the drier is carried out in two stages in dependence upon the moisture content of the fuel, wherein first of all the temperature of the fluidized bed drier is controlled via the steam pressure of the heating steam and downstream of this controlling, a controlling of the superheating temperature of the heating steam is carried out in dependence upon the steam pressure.
