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 ...

application of cogeneration systems based gas turbine for heat and power production is increasing. because of finite natural energy resources and increasing energy demand the cost effective design of energy systems is essential. cgam problem as a cogeneration system is considered here for analyzing. two new approaches are considered, first in thermodynamic model of gas turbine and cogeneration ...

heat recuperation is often used to improve the overall cycle efficiency of gas turbines. however, generally in small- scale gas turbines, it has a negative effect on turbine inlet temperature, pressure ratio and pressure drops, and thus decreases the overall cycle efficiency. in this paper, a thermodynamic model is performed to evaluate recovered heat as a function of heat exchanger effectivene...

The exhaust gases of gas turbine power plant carry a significant amount of thermal energy that is usually expelled to the atmosphere this causes a reduction in net work and efficiency of gas turbine. On the other hand, the generated power and efficiency of gas turbine plants depend largely on the temperature of the inlet air, So that they both increase as the inlet air temperature decreases. Th...

Biomass is identified as one of the major renewable energy sources for electrical power generation. Heavy duty gas turbine engines are preferred for clean and efficient power generation. An extensive literature survey reveals that the governor droop setting of the heavy duty gas turbines varies from 2 percentage to 10 percentage. But it needs to be optimized for analyzing the dynamic response o...

an industrial gas turbine has the characteristic of decreasing output power on hot summer days while electricity demand peaks. steam injection in gas turbines has been used for many years to prevent the loss of performance of gas turbines caused by high ambient temperature. vodoley system is a closed steam injection gas turbine cycle (csigtc), which is known as a self-sufficient in steam produc...

Turbine blades of a gas turbine are responsible for extracting energy from the high temperature, high pressure gases. These blades are operated at elevated temperatures in aggressive environments and are subjected to large centrifugal forces. As many as 42 percent of the failures in gas turbine engines were only due to blading problems and the failures in these turbine blades can have dramatic ...

Turbine blade cooling is considered as the most effective way of maintaining high operating temperature making use of the available materials, and turbine systems with wet compression have a potential for future power generation because of high efficiency and high specific power with a relatively low cost. In this paper performance analysis of wet-compression gas turbine cycle with turbine blad...
