Effect of Steam Injection in Gas Turbine Combustion Chamber on the Performance of a Natural Gas Fired Combined Cycle Power Generation Unit
Ibrahim Alaefour, B.V. Reddy
Abstract
Combined cycle power generation plants have become a popular way to generate power at higher efficiencies with reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The effect of steam injection in the gas turbine combustion chamber on the performance of a natural gas fired combined cycle power plant is investigated.
The effect of steam injection on performance is conducted for a combined cycle power generation configuration, based on first law of thermodynamics. The steam injection influences the work output and efficiencies of gas turbine, steam turbine and combined cycle power generation unit.
