Abstract

The design of a Heat Recovery Steam Generator behind a gas turbine depends upon various input parameters such as gas turbine exhaust flow, exhaust temperature, etc. Most of the input parameters are either measured with tolerances or calculated based on experimental correlations. The design of the heat recovery steam generator itself utilizes various correlations and empirical values. The errors or measurement tolerances in these variables affect the performance of the steam generator. This paper describes the various design parameters, the possible magnitude of errors in these parameters and the overall effect on the steam generator’s performance. By utilizing the information given in this paper, it is possible to develop a performance envelope based on the possible error margins of the input variables. The steam generator performance can be deemed acceptable if it is within this envelope.
