INDUSTRIAL GAS TURBINE OPERATION PROCEDURE IMPROVEMENT
ABSTRACT
In technical respect, cogeneration is well studied technology but it is sometimes not used in an optimum way in practice. Factors affecting operating economics of this technology in practice are very similar to other industrial technologies although the degree of their influence may vary. When cogeneration is concerned, the decisive importance lies on the parity between prices of electricity and driving fuel and reliability of concurrent utilization of generated heat and power. In this paper, a realistic case of real industrial cogeneration plant operations is analyzed in details and it is pointed out to the necessity of optimizing operations of the plant as a whole.
