Abstract
To maintain performance improvement of Kýzýldere single flash geothermal power plant and to increase geothermal based electricity power of Turkey, gas turbine integrated geothermal power plant is proposed. Nowadays in Turkey, to increase natural gas usage, a lot of new project related to natural gas are designed. Adding a gas turbine to existing single flash geothermal power plant appears very efficiently. In this project, leaving exhaust gases from gas turbine, enters a heat exchanger for transfer its heat energy to geothermal steam at saturated state. With this project, saturated steam will convert to superheated steam, so net power output of geothermal steam turbine will increase.
According to analysis, 43 % more power will be produce with new designed geothermal power plant. First law efficiency of the existing power plant rises from 4.556 % to 6.5 % and second law efficiency rises from 19.78 % to 28.4 %.
