Abstract
Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems and methods for predicting transient operational characteristics of a power plant. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method is provided for predicting transient operational characteristics of a power plant. The method can include receiving operating information associated with the power plant; using a power plant dynamics model for determining a current operating state of the power plant based at least in part on the received operating information; and using the power plant dynamics model and a power plant controls model for predicting one or more future operating parameters associated with power plant based at least in part on the determined current operating state and the received operating information.
