2. 1. Evaluation, Experience and Potential of Gas Turbine Based Cycles with Humidification

   Author : Torbjörn Lindquist; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Model Validation; Recuperator; Flue Gas Condensation; Humidification; Gas Turbine; Advanced Thermodynamic Cycles; HAT; Humid Air Turbine; Evaporative Gas Turbine Cycle; EvGT; Operating Experience; EvGT Pilot Plant; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik;

   Abstract : Gas turbines, in simple and combined cycle, are common and economically profitable on the power generating market today. Several new cycles have been proposed as future competing technologies, but all studies about these cycles have, so far, been paperwork. READ MORE

4. 2. Developing Humidified Gas Turbine Cycles

   Author : Michael Bartlett; KTH; []
   Keywords : advanced gas turbine cycles; evaporative; humidified; power; heat and power;

   Abstract : As a result of their unique heat recovery properties,Humidified Gas Turbine (HGT) cycles have the potential todeliver resource-effective energy to society. The EvaporativeGas Turbine (EvGT) Consortium in Sweden has been studying thesetypes of cycles for nearly a decade, but now stands at acrossroads, with commercial demonstration remaining. READ MORE

5. 3. Advanced Gas Turbine Cycles with Water-Air Mixtures as Working Fluid

   Author : Niklas Ågren; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gas turbine cycles; HAT cycles; evaporative cycles; power generation;

   Abstract : Since the early 80's, the worldwide utilization of gas turbines for thermal power generation has increased rapidly. They have less pollution than any other major combustion energy converters. READ MORE

6. 4. Advanced power cycles with mixture as the working fluid

   Author : Maria Jonsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : power cycle; mixture working fluid; Kalina cycle; ammonia-water mixture; reciprocating internal combustion engine; bottoming cycle; gas turbine; evaporative gas turbine; air-water mixture; exergy;

   Abstract : The world demand for electrical power increasescontinuously, requiring efficient and low-cost methods forpower generation. This thesis investigates two advanced powercycles with mixtures as the working fluid: the Kalina cycle,alternatively called the ammonia-water cycle, and theevaporative gas turbine cycle. READ MORE

7. 5. Thermodynamic properties of humid air and their application in advanced power generation cycles

   Author : Xiaoyan Ji; Jinyue Yan; Umberto Desideri; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; air-water mixture; humid air; properties; wet cycles; dry air; water; enthalpy; entropy; heat capacity; density; evaporative gas turbine; compressed air energy storage; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : Water or steam is added into the working fluid (often air) in gas turbines to improve the performance of gas turbine cycles. A typical application is the humidified gas turbine that has the potential to give high efficiencies, high specific power output, low emissions and low specific investment. READ MORE
