Effects of Wet Compression on Performance of Regenerative Gas Turbine Cycle with Turbine Blade Cooling
Abstract:
When water is injected at an inlet of compressor, wet compression occurs due to evaporation of water droplets. In this work, the effects of wet compression on the performance of regenerative gas turbine cycle with turbine blade cooling are analytically investigated. For various pressure ratios and water injection ratios, the important system variables such as ratio of coolant flow for turbine blade cooling, fuel consumption, specific power and thermal efficiency are estimated. Parametric studies show that wet compression leads to significant enhancement in both specific power and thermal efficiency in gas turbine systems with turbine blade cooling.
