Course Introduction
Ensuring Gas turbines run at Maximum Efficiency is a primary Goal for Operators. In the current Economic Climate, anything that increases Productivity, and hence profit, is clearly welcome. From an Environmental point of view, it is also important that Turbines run as Efficiently – and produce as Few Emissions – as possible. Fortunately, there are several ways to improve Gas Turbine Output. Controlling the Humidity and Temperature of Air entering the Combustion Inlet is one of the most important, as it has a direct effect on the turbine’s Efficiency, Emissions, and Operational Reliability. The Simple Gas Turbine Configuration has Higher Power Output with effect the compression ratio, while the Regenerative Gas Turbine Configuration has Higher Efficiency with effect Lower Compression Ratio, therefore the variation of Total Power Output is insignificance at Lower Compression Ratio. The extensive modelling performed in this study reveals that, the ambient temperature and compression ratios are strongly influence on the performance of Combined Cycle, a Higher Overall Efficiency can be achieved for combined cycle with add regenerative to topping cycle.
The steam turbine
High Operational Flexibility - the Ability of a Power plant for fast startup and to adjust load output fast and predictable to changing market requirements is an essential prerequisite to ensure economic success. Most factors limiting the load output of an existing combined cycle power plant are the allowed pressure and temperature transients of the steam turbine The FIVE days course discusses the computation of the Performance of the Gas Turbine Power Plant. The Attendees will be explained the computations of entire Plants and the proper correction factors applicable in all the sections of the plant, will be developed and discussed.
