Abstract
The impact of steam injection upon a gas turbine and a combined power plant performance has been investigated. This article describes and summarizes possibilities of modification for current gas turbine in PGE Gorzow power plant into the Cheng cycle. Our modification deals with a thermal cycle, in which steam produced in a heat recovery steam generator is injected into the gas turbine's combustion chamber. It has been proved that an increase of the mass flow rate of the expanded exhaust gases causes an increase in both the power and efficiency of gas turbine. Steam injection also helps to reduce NOx formation and is profitable from a thermodynamic, economic and ecological standpoint. The numerical analysis of thermal cycles, before and after the modification, has been carried out by means of an in-house COM-GAS code and Aspen Plus commercial package.
