This study aims to analyze the parameters that actively affect the efficiency of gas power plants in order to optimize their performance. The method used in this study was an analytical approach based on the results of performance tests conducted in 2018, 2020, and 2022 on gas power plants in the sumatera selatan area, based on thermodynamic equations. Based on the results of the study, it is explained that there is a very significant relationship between the inlet air temperature of the compressor, the inlet fuel temperature, and the turbine exhaust temperature and active power to the efficiency of gas-fired power plants, where an increase in the inlet air temperature to the compressor will reduce the compressor efficiency, which is predicted using linear regression with an R2=0.82. An increase in the exhaust temperature and active power will significantly reduce the thermal cycle efficiency, which is predicted using linear regression with an average R2 =0.96. In addition, an increase in the fuel mass flow rate and inlet fuel temperature will increase the turbine efficiency, which is predicted using linear regression with an average R2 =0.97. Therefore, the relationships obtained in this study can be used as a reference for energy companies and governments in developing more efficient gas-fired power plants in the future
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
