Demand and Supply
Electricity must be produced when the consumers
need it because it cannot be stored in a practical
manner on a large scale.
Electricity can be stored indirectly through water,
but it is not economical.
Actually only storage of water pumped into lakes
during off-peak time to be used during peak hours
has been used practically.
Excellent start-up and
shut down capabilities
are essential for this
Large fluctuation in demand during the day requires quick response from power plants to meet the balance
between demand and supply.
Gas turbine combined cycle power plants have good characteristics in terms of fast start-up and shut-down.
In addition, they have low investment costs, short construction times compared to large coal-fired power
stations and nuclear plants.
The other advantages of combined cycles are high efficiency and low emission.

Cost of Electricity
In contrast to steam turbine-generators, the manufacturers of gas turbines have a defined product line,
allowing for substantial standardization and assembly line manufacturing. Standardization and
modularization combine to provide the product benefits of relatively low capital cost and fast installation.
The benefits of low capital cost and fast installation were initially offset by higher operating costs when
compared to other installed capacity. Therefore, early utility applications of gas turbine generator were strictly
for peak load operation for a few hundred hours per year.
Improvements in efficiency and reliability and the application of combined cycles have added to the
economic benefits of the technology and now give gas turbine based power plants a wider range of
application on electric systems.

1. High Thermal Efficiency [1/8]
The efficiency is the most important cost factor for installations operated intermediate or base load because
fuel spend may be about 70 percent of the total cost.
If an expensive fuel is used, such as natural gas or liquefied natural gas (LNG), the efficiency is important.
Therefore, high efficiency is a prerequisite for an economical combined cycle power plants.
All major OEMs have developed air-cooled gas turbines for combined cycles with efficiencies around 61
percent.
Siemens proved performance of 60.75% at the Irsching site outside Berlin in May 2011.
The key for 61% efficiency is high performance gas turbines having higher pressure ratio and turbine inlet
temperature.
In addition, the exhaust gas temperature has to be at a level for maximum bottoming cycle performance.
Currently, most OEMs have capability of steam turbine throttle temperature of 600C(1112F) and the
optimum exhaust gas temperature should therefore be on the order of 25-30C higher.
Both GE and Siemens have presented advanced throttle conditions for their bottoming cycles, 165
bar/600C and 170 bar/600C, respectively.

100 The gas turbine equipped with
VIGV or several rows of variable
stator vanes keeps the efficiency
of the combined cycle plant
almost constant down to
approximately 80 to 85% load.
This is because a high exhaust
gas temperature can be
maintained as the air mass flow is
reduced.
Below that level, the turbine inlet
temperature must be reduced,
leading to an increasingly fast
reduction of efficiencies.
The steam turbine is operated with sliding pressure mode down to 50% load. Below that point, the live-
steam pressure is held constant, resulting in throttling losses.

The time required for the construction of a power plant affects the economies of a project.
The longer it takes, the larger the capital required because interest, insurance, and taxes during the
construction period add the price of the plant.
It also creates an additional risk for the investor because the market forecast has to look more in the future
than for a plant with a shorter realization time.
A gas turbine in a simple cycle application can be installed within the shortest time because of its
standardized design. Gas turbines, therefore, help secure power generation in fast-growing economies.
Additional time is needed for the completion of a combined cycle plant. Combined cycle plants can be
installed in two phases, with the gas turbine running first in simple cycle mode, and then in combined cycle
mode as the steam cycle becomes available.
With this procedure, two-thirds of the power is available in the time required for a gas turbine installation.
However, an outage of two to three months is needed to convert the gas turbine power plant from simple
cycle to combined cycle.
Besides the actual construction time of a power plant, the time elapsing between start of the project until
financial closing and its predictability are also important to be considered in the development of a project.
The time for the development of a project varies widely from one project to the other due to local factors.
However, it is a fact that gas-fired combined cycle power plants are easier to develop than coal-fired plants.
The main reason is the easier permitting and lower risk opposition against this kind of project.

The gas turbine usually can be operated in simple cycle mode while the steam portion of the combined
cycle is erected.
The gas turbine from the 1960s to the late 1980s was used only as peaking power in the countries where
the large steam turbines were used as base load power plants.
However, gas turbine was used as base load mainly in the developing countries where the need of power
was increasing rapidly because the waiting period of three to six years for a steam plant was unacceptable.
Combined cycle plants are relatively quick to
design and erect because all major equipment
is shipped to the field as assembled and tested
components.
The gas turbine is assembled at the factory and
mounted on a structural base plate or skid,
minimizing the need for field assembly of the
turbine.
Other components and support systems such
as cooling water and lubricating oil are modules
that are easily erected and connected to the
gas turbine skid.

Most gas turbine applications rely on natural gas or No. 2 distillate oil.
Because of the availability and economics of natural gas, the majority
of new power plants prefer natural gas as a fuel.
Fuel affects CC performance in a variety of ways.
Natural gas containing high hydrogen content has a higher heat
content and therefore output and efficiency increase when the
natural gas is used as a fuel.
Plant output and efficiency can be reduced when the ash bearing
fuels (crude oil, residual oil, blends, or heavy distillate) are used
because of fouling occurred in gas turbine and HRSG.
Plant output and efficiency can be reduced when the fuels containing
higher sulfur content are used. This is because higher stack gas
temperature is required to prevent condensation of corrosive sulfuric
acid.
Some gas turbines can burn heavy oil or crude oil. Heavy duty gas
turbines are more suitable for this type of fuel than aeroderivative
gas turbines.
Heavy fuels normally cannot be ignited for gas turbine startup;
therefore a startup and shutdown fuel, usually light distillate, is
needed with its own storage, forwarding system, and fuel
changeover equipment.

An additional requirement for burning heavy oil or crude oil in a gas turbine is the correct treatment of the
fuel, generally by means of cleaning the fuel and/or dosing it with additives.
This steps make it possible to remove or inhibit elements that cause high temperature corrosion, such as
vanadium and sodium.
In practice, the use of heavy (residual) oil in gas turbine is impossible in industrialized countries.
Modern gas turbines with high firing temperatures are not designed for heavy fuel operation, but only for
natural gas and distillate oil.

Reliability is the percentage of the time between planned overhauls where the plant is generating or is
ready to generate electricity, whereas the availability is the percentage of the total time where power could
be produced.
Availability and reliability are very important in terms of plant economy. When a unit is down, power must be
generated in another power station or purchased from another producer. In each case, replacement power
is generally more expensive.
The power station’s fixed costs are incurred whether the plant is running or not.
In deregulated markets, reliability is important. At peak tariff hours, a major portion of the income is
generated and the plant must be reliable. Scheduled outages can be planned for off-peak periods when
tariffs are close to or even below variable costs. Then only a small income loss results from the planned
outages.
A high availability has a positive impact on the cost of electricity because it allows an operator to run a
power plant with a higher utilization time per year and, therefore, achieve a higher income.
Many analyses show that a 1% drop in the availability needs about 2~3% increase in the efficiency to offset
that loss.
The larger gas turbines, just due to their size, take more time to undergo any of the regular inspections,
such as combustor, hot gas path, and major overall inspections, thus reducing the availability of these
turbines.

Some estimate that burning residual or crude oil will increase maintenance costs by a factor of 3, (summing a base
of 1 for natural gas, and by a factor of 1.5 for distillate) and that those costs will be three times higher for the same
number of fired hours if the unit is started every fired hour, instead of once every 1000 fired hours.

Combined Cycle Power Plants 7. Combined Cycle Power Plants 46 / 80
HIoPE
O&M costs include operating labor, materials, and tools for plant maintenance on both a routine and
emergency basis.
These expenses are neither a function of plant capital cost nor plant generating capacity.
These costs also vary according to the size of plant, type of fuel used, loading schedule, and operating
characteristics (peaking or base load).
They vary from year to year and generally become higher as the plant becomes older.
In general, O&M costs are approximately equal to one-fourth of the fuel costs.
A good rule of thumb is that the maintenance cost is twice the initial cost during the plant life (normally, 25
years).
The running profile has a profound impact on the O&M cost.
Usually, the first maintenance is scheduled for either 24,000 hours or 1,200 starts (whichever occurs first).
Nowadays, it is common to have a maintenance agreement at some level for risk mitigation.
There are different levels of contractual services ranging from part agreement to full coverage LTSA
services.
One can choose to use either the OEM or another third party service provider.

Combined Cycle Power Plants 7. Combined Cycle Power Plants 47 / 80

In many cases, financing organs or insurer requires LTSA (or better) for risk mitigation to level the insurance
cost at a reasonable level.
The total number of gas turbine operated in the world is about 47,000 units and the total value of the gas
turbine after market was 19.3 billion USD in 2009.
The after market is valuable greatly to the manufacturers since all 47,000 units requires maintenance on a
regular basis.
Certain in-house produced parts may be offered with several hundred percent margin. In contrast, the
margin of a complete new turn-key power plant is about 10 percent.
The reward for the user, by having a LTSA, is discounted parts and prioritized treatment by the supplier.

Estimated Effect of Fuel Type on Maintenance
Fuels burned in gas turbines range from
clean natural gas to residual fuels and impact
maintenance.
Heavier hydrocarbon fuels have a
maintenance factor ranging from three to four
for residual fuel, and two to three for crude
oils.
These fuels generally release a higher
amount of radiant thermal energy, which
results in a subsequent reduction in
combustion hardware life, and frequently
contain corrosive elements such as sodium,
potassium, vanadium and lead to
accelerated hot corrosion of turbine nozzle
and buckets.
In addition, some elements in these fuels can
cause deposit with inhibitors that are used to
prevent corrosion.
These deposits impact performance and can
lead to a need for more frequent
maintenance.

Turbine start/stop cycle – firing temperature changes
The figure shows the firing temperature changes occurring over a normal startup and shutdown cycle.
Light-off, acceleration, loading, unloading and shutdown all produce gas temperature changes that
produce corresponding metal temperature changes.
For rapid changes in gas temperature, the edges of the bucket or nozzle respond more quickly than
the thicker bulk section.
These gradients, in turn, produce thermal stress that, when cycled, can eventually lead cracking.

The startup time of the gas turbine and the combined cycle plant is significantly less than the time required
for a comparably sized coal-fired power plant.
Gas turbines are capable of relatively quick starts.
Heavy duty gas turbines can achieve starting times as low as 10 minutes but usually no higher than 30
minutes from cold start to 100% load.
Aeroderivative gas turbines can achieve 100% load in 3 minutes or less.
If equipped with bypass systems, the startup of the steam cycle portion of the combined cycle can be
separated from the gas turbine.
The HRSG can be warmed up nearly as quickly as the gas turbine, with excess steam produced being
bypassed to the condenser.
The gas turbine can be operated at full load while the steam turbine is warming up.
Supercritical plants require feedwater purity so that tube side deposition will not cause overheating damage.
Condensate polishing with oxygenated water treatment is required to achieve excellent water purity.
Even many natural circulation (drum type) units now use oxygenated water treatment.
The deposition has been greatly reduced so that the requirement for frequent chemical cleaning is almost
eliminated.

Operational flexibility is essential in combined cycle power plants for frequency control.
Most OEMs are capable of 30 min hot-start and steep (35-50 MW/minute) ramp-rates.
The steam cooled gas turbine has a longer start-up time. Thus, is has less flexibility in terms of DSS.
Combined Cycle Power Plants 7. Combined Cycle Power Plants 59 / 80
HIoPE
Combined cycle plants are very well suited to rapid load changes because gas turbine react extremely
quickly to frequency variations.
As soon as fuel valve opens, more added power becomes available on the shaft and gas turbine load jumps
of up to 35% are possible, but this is detrimental to the life expectancy of the turbine blades.
To perform a plant load jump while the frequency is falling, it is essential that gas turbine is operating below
the maximum output level.
For frequency support gas turbines are typically operated between 50 and 95% load.
The electrical output of the combined cycle power plants is controlled by means of gas turbine only. This is
because the gas turbine generates two-thirds of the total power output, a solution without control for the
steam turbine power output is generally preferred.
The gas turbine output is controlled by a combination of VIGV and TIT control.
The TIT is controlled by a combination of the fuel flow into the combustor and VIGV setting.
VIGVs allows a high gas turbine exhaust temperature down to approximately 40% GT load. Below this level,
TIT is further reduced because the airflow cannot be further reduced.
The steam turbine will always follow the gas turbine by generating power with whatever steam is available.

There has also been a debate over the years whether the once-through HRSG technology should be better off
than drum boilers in terms of cycling.
GE
• Detailed transient analysis showed that the majority of fatigue life consumption occurs at
the hottest high pressure superheater and reheater during fast gas turbine loading,
regardless of whether the HRSG uses high pressure drum or once through technology.
• The HRSG stack is equipped with an automatic damper that closes upon plant shutdown to
reduce HRSG heat loss and the time required for next plant start-up, as well as reduce the
cyclic stress of the start.
Siemens
• Once-through HRSG eliminates the thick wall HP drum and allows an unrestricted gas
turbine start-up.
a. gas turbine start-up produces rapid boiling in the evaporator
b. if water level in the drum rises to the separators, water carry over into the superheater
may occur
c. the typical response to this is to either trip or slow gas turbine load ramp
It is hard to conclude that which one is better in terms of operating flexibility.

Single-shaft with generator between gas turbine and steam turbine enables installation of a clutch between
steam turbine and generator.
One problem of a Jaw clutch, which was used previously, is that it can only be engaged when the gas turbine
is at rest. This means that in the event of a failed gas turbine start, the operator must wait until the gas
turbine is stationary before engaging the jaw clutch to re-start.
Currently, SSS(Synchronous Self-Shifting) clutch has been employed popularly. The SSS clutch engages in
that moment when the steam turbine speed tries to overrun the rigidly coupled gas turbine generator and
disengages if the torque transmitted from the steam turbine to the generator becomes zero.
The clutch allows startup and operation of gas turbine without driving the steam turbine.
This results in a lower starting power and eliminates certain safety measures for the steam turbine, such as
cooling steam or sealing steam.
Single-shaft units without a clutch definitely need auxiliary steam supply to cool the steam turbine during
startup. This is not necessary in units with a clutch.
The clutch also provides design opportunities for accommodating axial thermal expansion.
However, the clutch is an additional component with a potential impact on availability. Additionally, the
generator located at the end of the line of shafting has advantages during generator overhaul.

Pollutants characteristics
Smoke • Smoke is usually formed in small fuel rich regions especially during start-up.
UHC and CO
• The unburned hydrocarbons and CO are formed incomplete combustion typically at idling
conditions.
• Carbon monoxide (CO) emissions are low at gas turbine loads above 50%, typically less
than 5~25 ppmvd (9~43 g/GJ).
• Low CO emissions are the result of highly-efficient combustion.
• Catalytic CO emission abatement systems are also available, if required.
• The CO catalyst is installed in the exhaust gas path, typically upstream of the HRSG
superheater.
CO2
• CO2 production is a direct function of the CHx fuels burned it produces 3.14 times the fuel
burned.
• The only way to reduce the production of CO2 is to use less fuel for the power produced.
NOx
• NOx have been major pollutant in modern gas turbines.
• New units under development have goals which would reduce NOx levels below 9 ppm.
• SCRs have also been used in conjunction with DLN combustors.
• New research of catalytic combustors will give 2 ppm in the future.

The CO2 emissions of the plant are having a more direct impact on the economics of a plant due to the
effort to globally limit these kinds of emissions.
The combined cycle plant emits about 40% of the CO2 of a coal-fired plant. This is driven by the higher
efficiency and the higher hydrogen content in natural gas.
Unfortunately, however, the relative lower CO2 content in the flue gas makes the separation process more
difficult, and may render in high separation tower heights to provide for sufficient residence time.
Another issue is the flue gas flow which is on the order of 1.5 kg/MW, compared to 0.95 kg/MW for than
advanced steam plants.
The cross section of the separation tower should provide for a velocity around 5 m/s. Therefore, a combined
cycle plant requires a higher and wider tower for CO2 capture plant compared to a coal fired plant.
No commercial full-scale technology for CO2 capture exists today and the road-maps towards feasible
solution are still not clear.
It has been expected that the efficiency of combined cycle power plant with CO2 capture plant will drop 8
percent for a GE 9FB.03 with a 3-pressure HRSG. This is because a lot of LP steam is required for solvent
regeneration.

Cogeneration means the simultaneous production of electricity and thermal energy in the same plants.
The thermal energy is usually steam or hot water.
The types of cogeneration plants:
① Industrial power stations supplying heat to an industrial process
② District heating power plants
③ Power plants coupled to seawater desalination plants
The supplementary firing in the HRSG gives greater design and operating flexibility, but the cycle efficiency
is normally lower if supplementary firing is used.
Thermal energy in the form of steam can be extracted from HRSG, or from an extraction in the steam
turbine.
The power coefficient (also called the alpha-value) is defined as the ratio between the electrical and the
thermal output.
Fuel utilization is a measure of how much of the fuel supplied is usefully used in the plant. It is equal to the
sum of electrical output and thermal output divided by the fuel input.

CHP; Combined Heat and Power
In the simplest arrangements, the
gas turbine waste heat is used
directly in an industrial process,
such as for drying in a paper mill,
or cement works.
Adding an HRSG converting
waste heat into steam, gives
greater flexibilities in the process
for chemical industries, or district
heating
