Comprehensive analysis of energy, exergy and exergo-economic of cogeneration of heat and power in a combined gas turbine and organic Rankine cycle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a combined heat and power cycle combining a gas turbine (GT) and an ORC through a single-pressure heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), and the results revealed that the increase in pressure ratio and isentropic efficiency of air compressor and gas turbine efficiency improves thermodynamic performance of the system, however, the more increase of these parameters deteriorates the total cost rates.

Exergy analysis of a 420 MW combined cycle power plant

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate irreversibility of each part of Neka CCPP using the exergy analysis and show that the combustion chamber, gas turbine, duct burner and heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) are the main sources of irreversability representing more than 83% of the overall exergy losses.
