Thermodynamic optimization of several (heat recovery steam generator) HRSG configurations for a range of exhaust gas temperatures

Thermo-economic optimization of heat recovery steam generator for a range of gas turbine exhaust temperatures

“…In the case of the thermodynamic optimization, the fitness function is the steam cycle specific work per kg of exhaust gas ( , while for the economic optimization the fitness function is the NPV. More details concerning this algorithm can be found in the reference [42].…”

Thermodynamic performance simulation and concise formulas for triple-pressure reheat HRSG of gas–steam combined cycle under off-design condition

“…HRSG has been widely investigated from many aspects, such as the application of genetic algorithms in structural design [2], once-through HRSG modelling and design [3], HRSG pressure level selection [4], and the effect of heat transfer surface layout on HRSG thermal performance [5]. In addition, HRSG key parameter design and optimization have elicited an increasing amount of attention in recent years.…”

Performance evaluation of a mercury-steam combined-energy-generation system (MES)

“…Chmielniak et al performed economical and thermodynamical examinations of air‐steam cycles for a gas‐turbine power‐generation system. Nadir and Ghenaiet set up three configurations and conducted performance examinations for a steam generator operating with exhaust gas at temperatures between 350°C and 650°C.…”
