The integration of absorption refrigeration system, parabolic trough collectors, and ice storage system to augment power generation capability of gas turbine power plant
Gas turbine power plant yields reduced power output in hot climates. Cooling of inlet air that is supplied to compressor of gas turbine unit results in increasing power output. Absorption refrigeration system and parabolic trough collectors may be used to for this purpose. In this paper, a modification of this method of inlet air cooling by adding ice storage system is investigated. Cooling coils in ice storage tank work as evaporator of absorption refrigeration system. Air temperature is decreased due to heat transfer to circulating cooling water supplied by ice storage tank. The reference gas turbine power plant operating without inlet air cooling system is compared with two integrated systems. The first integrated system uses absorption refrigeration system and parabolic trough collectors. The second integrated system uses absorption refrigeration system, parabolic trough collectors, and ice storage system. The reference power plant generates 115.43 MW. Simulation results show that using absorption refrigeration system and parabolic trough collectors can increase the annual energy output by 5.03 %. Adding ice storage system can further increase the annual energy output by 1.41 %.
