【 摘 要 】

This paper was presented the parametric study of thermodynamic performance on gas turbine power plant. The variation of operating conditions (compression ratio, turbine inlet and exhaust temperature, air to fuel ratio, isentropic compressor and turbine efficiency, and ambient temperature) on the performance of gas turbine (thermal efficiency, compressor work, power, specific fuel consumption, heat rate) were investigated. The analytical formula for the specific work and efficiency were derived and analyzed. The programming of performance model for gas turbine was developed utilizing the MATLAB software. The results show that the compression ratio, ambient temperature, air to fuel ratio as well as the isentropic efficiencies are strongly influence on the thermal efficiency. In addition, the thermal efficiency and power output decreases linearly with increase of the ambient temperature and air to fuel ratio. However, the specific fuel consumption and heat rate increases linearly with increase of both ambient temperature and air to fuel ratio. Thus the thermodynamic parameters on cycle performance are economically feasible and beneficial for the gas turbine operations.
