Exergy analysis of the regenerative gas turbine cycle using absorption inlet cooling and evaporative aftercooling

This paper provides an exergy analysis to investigate the effects of pressure ratio, turbine inlet temperature, compressor inlet temperature and ambient relative humidity on the thermodynamic performance of a regenerative gas turbine cycle using absorption inlet cooling and evaporative aftercooling. Combined first and second law analysis indicates that the exergy destruction in various components of the gas turbine cycle is significantly...
