Performance Analysis of a Gas Turbine for Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle

Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant converts coal to syngas, which is mainly composed with hydrogen and carbon monoxide, by the gasification process and produces electric power by the gas and steam turbine combined cycle power plant. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of the syngas to the performance of a gas turbine in a combined cycle power plant. For this purpose, a commercial gas turbine is selected and its performance characteristics are analyzed with syngas. It is found that different heating values of those fuels and chemical compositions in their combustion gases are the causes in the different performance characteristics. Also, Changing of turbine inlet Mass flow lead to change the turbine matching point, in the event the pressure ratio is changed.
