| dc.description.abstract | The efficiency of deep cooling air at the inlet of gas turbine unite to the temperature of 10 °С by waste heat recovery combined absorption-ejector chiller was analyzed in climatic conditions at Kharkov site, Ukraine, and Beijing site, China, and compared with the moderate cooling to the temperature of 15°C in traditional absorption lithium-bromide chiller. The refrigerant ejector chiller is chosen as the most simple and reliable in operation chiller. It was used as the low-temperature stage for subcooling the air precooled in absorption lithium-bromide chiller to the temperature about 15 °C. Both waste heat recovery absorption lithium-bromide chiller and ejector chiller use the heat of gas turbine unite exhaust gas to produce a cooling capacity. Air cooling at the inlet of gas turbine unite was investigated for varying climatic conditions during the year. The current values of temperature depression with cooling ambient air to different temperatures of 10 °C and 15 °C and corresponding cooling capacities required were calculated. The comparison of the effect due to gas turbine unite inlet air cooling was performed by annual fuel saving and power production growth. With this the current values of turbine power output increase and specific fuel consumption decrease due to cooling inlet air from current varying ambient temperatures to the temperatures of 10 °C and 15 °C were calculated. It was shown that annual fuel saving and power production growth have increased by 1,8 times for Kharkov (Ukraine) site climatic conditions and by 1,6 times for Beijing (China) site due to deep cooling air to the temperature of 10 °C by absorption-ejector chiller as compared with cooling inlet air to the temperature of 15 °C by absorption lithium-bromide chiller. | |
