A gas turbine power plant, also known as a Combined Cycle Gas Turbine Power Plant combines the strengths of two thermal processes in ideal fashion Electricity production using a gas turbine together with a steam turbine. .Around two thirds of the electrical power generated is produced by the gas turbine. The hot gases that this process creates drive the turbine and, with it, the generator That is coupled to it. The rest of the electrical power generated, roughly a third, is produced by the steam Turbine using the hot exhausts gases leaving the gas turbine. In the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) the exhaust gases transfer their heat to the circulating water: thepressurised water vaporises, causing the temperature in the system to rise. The steam drives the steam turbine and, with it, the generator that is coupled to it.Gas-fired combined-cycle power plants are technologically advanced and used throughout the world. Compared with other types of power plant, they are highly efficient:the state-of-the-art EGL plants in Italy achieve a percentage in the region of 56, meaning that the energy supplied in the form of fuel is converted into electricity as efficiently as technically possible. Investment costs are comparatively low because the main components are largely standardised. The extremely powerful gas turbine allows for a compact power plant,which minimises construction time to around two and a half years.Gas-fired combined-cycle power plants are built modular, consisting of several Blocks. Each block is practically a self-contained power plant that can be operated independently.The standardised EGL power plants all have two blocks with a combined yield of around 760 megawatts. Compared with all other conventional thermal plants, such as coal-fired power plants, carbon dioxide and nitric oxide emissions are lowest when plants are fired with natural gas.

Working Principles High pressure steam is fed to the turbine and passes along the machine axis through multiple rows of alternately fixed and moving blades. From the steam inlet port of the turbine towards the exhaust point, the blades and the turbine cavity are progressively larger to allow for the expansion of the steam. The stationary blades act as nozzles in which the steam expands and emerges at an increased speed but lower pressure. (Bernoulli's conservation of energy principle - Kinetic energy increases as pressure energy falls). As the steam impacts on the moving blades it imparts some of its kinetic energy to the moving blades. There are two basic steam turbine types, impulse turbines and reaction turbines, whose blades are, designed control the speed, direction and pressure of the steam as is passes through the turbine.
Working principle Gas turbine engines derive their power from burning fuel in a combustion chamber and using the fast flowing combustion gases to drive a turbine in much the same way as the high pressure steam drives a steam turbine. One major difference however is that the gas turbine has a second turbine acting as an air compressor mounted on the same shaft. The air turbine (compressor) draws in air, compresses it and feeds it at high pressure into the combustion chamber increasing the intensity of the burning flame. It is a positive feedback mechanism. As the gas turbine speeds up, it also causes the compressor to speed up forcing more air through the combustion chamber which in turn increases the burn rate of the fuel sending more high pressure hot gases into the gas turbine increasing its speed even more. Uncontrolled runaway is prevented by controls on the fuel supply line which limit the amount of fuel fed to the turbine thus limiting its speed.
Gas Turbine
The gas turbine is comprised of three main components: a compressor, a combustor, and a turbine. The working fluid, air, is compressed in the compressor (adiabatic compression - no heat gain or loss), then mixed with fuel and burned by the combustor under constant pressure conditions in the combustion chamber (constant pressure heat addition). The resulting hot gas expands through the turbine to perform work (adiabatic expansion). Much of the power produced in the turbine is used to run the compressor and the rest is available to run auxiliary equipment and do useful work. The system is an open system because the air is not reused so that the fourth step in the cycle, cooling the working fluid, is omitted.
