Increasing electricity production must continue to be pursued to meet the increasing electricity needs of the community. One of the efforts that engineers can make is to improve the performance of the main suppliers of electricity needs. It is impossible to separate the role of the system's components from the performance of the gas turbine generator. This journal discusses exergy and energy analysis in the gas turbine generator of X combined cycle power plant through simulation with Cycle-Tempo software. The simulation results show that the highest system energy efficiency is owned by the gas turbine generator unit 2.3 of 35.541%, with a system exergy efficiency of 34.069%. The lowest system energy efficiency is owned by the gas turbine generator unit 2.1 of 31.669%, with a system exergy efficiency of 30.355%. The gas turbine generator component with the lowest exergy efficiency occurs in the combustion chamber of the gas turbine generator unit 2.2 of 76.81%, with exergy destruction of 92.581 MW. Meanwhile, the gas turbine generator component with the highest exergy efficiency occurred in the turbine of the gas turbine generator unit 2.3 of 96.81%, with exergy destruction of 9.762 MW. The simulation results that have been carried out show that the performance of the components in the gas turbine generator is still in good performance, with the lowest exergy efficiency above 75%.
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.
