Design Phase Utility Analysis for Gas Turbine and Combined Cycle Plants.

摘要

The objectives of this study are: (1) to analyze and identify those factors,trends and effects related to the usage of gas turbine (GT) and combined cycle (CC) power plants for base,intermediate and peaking load service as compared to alternate fossil fuel units for both public and privately owned utilities; (2) To forecast the future usage of GT and CC units to supply base,intermediate and peak load needs; (3) To examine and identify the engineering advantages and disadvantages of CC and GT technologies,and arrive at a definition for combined cycle power plants.
