Thermoeconomic Optimization of Steam Pressure of Heat Recovery Steam Generator in Combined Cycle Gas Turbine under Different Operation Strategies

Multi-objective optimization of heat recovery steam generators

In this paper, a multi-objective method is used to optimize a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). Two objective functions have been used in the optimization, which are irreversibility and HRSG equivalent volume. The former expresses the exergetic efficiency and the latter demonstrates the cost of the HRSG. Decision variables are geometric and operational parameters of the HRSG. The result...

Techno-Economic Assessment of Different Inlet Air Cooling Systems in Warm Dry & Wet Climate Stations

Performance of a gas turbine mainly depends on the inlet air temperature. The power output of a gas turbine depends on the flow of mass through it. This is precisely the reason why on hot days, when air is less dense, power output falls. The objective here is to assess the advanced systems applied in reducing the gas turbine intake air temperature and examine the merits from integration of the ...

Combined-cycle solarised gas turbine with steam, organic and CO2 bottoming cycles

Dish concentrators permit the collection of very high-temperature heat, at temperatures limited only by the properties of the containment vessel material. Using this heat efficiently is a major challenge in the design of energy conversion systems for dish concentrators: the heat must be used either immediately on the dish, or else transported, with losses, to a remote energy conversion device. ...
