Optimum Performance Enhancing Strategies of the Gas Turbine Based on The Effective Temperatures

Gas turbines (GT) have come to play a significant role in distributed energy systems due to its multi-fuel capability, compact size and low environmental impact and reduced cost. Nevertheless, the low electrical efficiency, typically about 30% (LHV), is an important obstruction to the development of...
