Effects of thermodynamic and mechanical irreversibilities on gas turbine performance enhancement by intake air cooling
A mathematical model for an existing gas turbine unit in Bahrain another model for intake Air Cooling Gas Turbine (ACIGT) with irreversibility's and variable specific heats were derived in dimensionless form. The maximum net power output and corresponding thermal efficiency were obtained using graphical visualisation and numerical calculation. Results showed an increases of 30% in output power ...

Method of producing power-generation and engine fuels from oil shale fines with solid heat carrier units (SHCU)
The technical feasibility and economic expediency of the shale-converting power technology complex at the Leningradskoye deposit in northwest Russia is substantiated herein. Two basic options of production utilisation are considered: manufacture of power fluid fuels, mainly for gas turbines and combined-cycle units; and production of boiler and ship fuel oils and domestic gas fuels.Keywords: ...

Co-production of synthesis gas and power by integration of Partial Oxidation reactor, gas turbine and air separation unit
A new synthesis gas production process based on partial oxidation (POX) of natural gas is investigated. Synthesis gas and mechanical power are generated in a plant that integrates a POX reactor, a synthesis gas turbine and an air separation unit. The synthesis gas is expanded in the turbine which runs the air separation unit. By means of an exergy analysis, it is shown that the synthesis gas ...

Exergy and industrial ecology: an application to an integrated energy system
Exergy analysis can help integrate separate technologies following the principles of industrial ecology. An application of exergy analysis to calculate depletion numbers, which relate exergy destruction and total exergy use, is demonstrated for a gas turbine cycle combined with a hydrogen generation unit. The design includes a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) with internal natural gas reforming and a ...

Modelling and exergoeconomic optimisation of a gas turbine with absorption chiller using evolutionary algorithm
In this paper, thermodynamic modelling of a gas turbine cycle with absorption chiller is performed. A thermoeconomic approach is utilised to find the most optimal values of design parameters for practical applications. Some design parameters considered are compressor pressure ratio, compressor isentropic efficiency, gas turbine isentropic efficiency, gas turbine inlet temperature, HRSG pressure, ...
