COMPUTER TECHNIQUES FOR EVALUATING GAS TURBINE HEAT RECOVERY APPLICATIONS

Describes programs which provide an installed cost estimate that can be used to evaluate the effect of variations in boiler pinch point, back pressure, stack temperature, superheated steam temperature, feedwater approach temperature, and supplementary firing for any gas turbine heat recovery application. Another program provides operating performance of the selected boiler design through a range of exhaust conditions due to ambient or load changes, and also for changes in the steam capacity or pressure requirements.
