Abstract

AbstractThermal efficiency of a combined cycle power plant depends strongly on a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), which is the link between the gas turbine‐based topping cycle and steam turbine‐based bottoming cycle. This work is based upon the design of physical parameters of a HRSG. In this article, the physical parameters of a HRSG have been considered to study their implications on HRSG design by comparing the existing plant design with an optimized plant design. Thermodynamic analysis of HRSG for the two designs gives important outcomes which are useful for power plant designers. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
