Title: Dynamic analysis of rapid load change characteristics on Gas Turbine Combined Cycle Power Plant
Abstract: The use of renewable energy sources (REs) such as solar and wind power is necessary to reduce the CO2 emissions. However, the fluctuating power output of REs renders the electric grid unstable. Gas turbine combined cycle power generation (GTCC) with a rapid start-up and high ramp rate is a potential solution to compensate for the load fluctuation. In this paper, dynamic simulation was conducted to validate the effect of increasing the load change rate on the steam-bottomed cycle of the proposed GTCC and methods to improve operating characteristics at increased load were discussed.
