As the Earth warms, carbon sinks on land and in the ocean will weaken, thereby increasing
the rate of warming. Although natural mechanisms contributing to this positive climate …

The efficiency of cooling ambient air at the inlet of gas turbines in temperate climatic
conditions was analyzed and reserves for its enhancing through deep cooling were …

Cooling degree-hours (CDH) received the broadest application in evaluation of the ambient
air cooling efficiency in power engineering (engine intake air cooling systems) and air …

Complex gas turbine schemes with air intercooling are usually used to bring the
compression process of working fluid in compressor closer to isothermal one. A promising …

Integrated energy systems (IES) for combined power, heat and refrigeration supply achieved
a wide application due to high flexibility in matching current loading. So as electricity is …

Gas turbine intake air cooling (TIAC) by exhaust gas heat recovery chillers is a general trend
to improve turbine fuel efficiency at increased ambient temperatures. The high efficiency …

Thermal power plants are increasingly required to balance power grids by compensating for
the intermittent electricity supply from renewable energy resources. As CO 2 capture and …
