Karaali, Rabi; Öztürk, Ilhan Tekin
In this paper, effects of the ambient conditions on performance of cogeneration cycles are analyzed by Using exergy analysis method. These cogeneration cycles are the simple cycle, the air preheating cycle, the air-fuel preheating cycle and the inlet air cooling cycle. Also; these cycles are evaluated thermodynamically for different air and fuel mass ratio and the performance of these cycles are compared. The electrical power generation increases about 10-15 % by decreasing the inlet air temperature of the compressor from 25 degrees C to 0 degrees C. However, the thermal power decreases about 10 % with decreasing inlet air temperature. During the summer, the electric power can be easilyincreased 2-7 % by injecting water into the inlet air of the compressor. The exergetic efficiency of cycles is decreased 11-13 %; by decreasing the compressor inlet air pressure from 101.3 kPa to 70.18 kPa. But this change decreases the electric power generation about 25 %. The highest exergy efficiency is obtained for the air-fuel preheated cycle. The simple cycle is the best among the four cycles to obtain high heat rate and heat exergy. The effects of all ambient conditions on these cycles are considered simultaneously, analyzed and compared With each other in this study.

Karaali, Rabi; Öztürk, Ilhan Tekin
In this study, a novel thermoeconomic optimization method that is simple and efficient, for real complex cycles is introduced. First, a thermoeconomic analysis method that is called non-linear simplex direct search method is improved for the purposes of this study. The objective of this paper is to apply this method to four cogeneration cycles that are simple cycle, inlet air cooling cycle, air preheated and air-fuel preheated cycles for analyzing and optimizing. The four cycles are thermoeconomically optimized for constant power and steam mass (30 MW and 14 kg/s saturated steam flow rate at 2000 kPa), for constant power (30 MW) and for variable steam mass, and for variable power and steam mass by using the cost equation method and the effect of size on equipment method. The results obtained by the effect of size on equipment and by the cost equations methods are very different from each other. For the case of global optimization, the optimum electricity costs which also correspond to minimum are obtained as 0,0432 $/kWh for simple cycle, 0,0514 $/kWh for inlet air cooling cycle 0,0577 $/kWh for air preheated cycle and 0,058 $/kWh for air-fuel preheated cycle by using cost equations method.
