Performance and Techno-Economic Analysis of Inlet Fogging System Implementation in Heavy Duty Industrial Gas Turbines
This study investigates the performance and economic benefits of applying inlet fogging in a heavy duty industrial gas turbine. To achieve the aim of the study, a heavy duty industrial gas turbine engine was modelled using a gas turbine performance software, GasTurb. The modelled engine was derived from the Frame 9E class of gas turbines. Consequent upon completing the engine modelling, ambient temperature profile data obtained from a location in Niger Delta region of Nigeria were used as input into the engine model to simulate its effect on the engine performance. Inlet fogging was simulated on the industrial gas turbine by inputting a water-to-air ratio of 0.4%, to cool and reduce the air inlet temperature by 10 degree Celsius. The simulation plots show that the gas turbine performance which dropped as a result of increased ambient temperature was enhanced by the application of inlet fogging. Economic analysis shows that approximately $2.4 million profit was recorded in one year when inlet fogging system was employed.
期刊介绍:
The purpose and scope of the International Journal of Thermodynamics is · to provide a forum for the publication of original theoretical and applied work in the field of thermodynamics as it relates to systems, states, processes, and both non-equilibrium and equilibrium phenomena at all temporal and spatial scales. · to provide a multidisciplinary and international platform for the dissemination to academia and industry of both scientific and engineering contributions, which touch upon a broad class of disciplines that are foundationally linked to thermodynamics and the methods and analyses derived there from. · to assess how both the first and particularly the second laws of thermodynamics touch upon these disciplines. · to highlight innovative & pioneer research in the field of thermodynamics in the following subjects (but not limited to the following, novel research in new areas are strongly suggested): o Entropy in thermodynamics and information theory. o Thermodynamics in process intensification. o Biothermodynamics (topics such as self-organization far from equilibrium etc.) o Thermodynamics of nonadditive systems. o Nonequilibrium thermal complex systems. o Sustainable design and thermodynamics. o Engineering thermodynamics. o Energy.
