Energy and efficiency analysis of a power plant

In this study, efficiency analysis of combined cycle Yatağan Thermic Power Plant which is working in Yatağan/Muğla for industrial zone for first and second laws of thermodynamics is realized. While analyzing of efficiency of thermic power plant different enviromental conditions and loads are observed and considered. The variations of the performance parameters and their magnitudes are studied. The useful power, reversible power and irreversibility are obtained for each component which constitutes the plant, and overall efficiencies of the plant are calculated. The result show the exergy analyses for a steam cycle system predict the plant efficiency more precisely. In addition to this, with this study, the efficiency of combined cycle thermic power plant for proses and efficiency law of thermodynamic is showed and gives the attention on it.Keywords: Combined cycle, gas turbine, energy analysis, thermic power plant
