The document outlines equations to calculate gross heat rate, net heat rate, and net power generation for a power plant. It shows that net heat rate can be calculated by dividing the volumetric flow rate times the net calorific value by the gross power generation minus auxiliary power consumption. It further derives that the net heat rate equals the gross heat rate divided by one minus the ratio of auxiliary power consumption to gross power generation.
