What is CCGT ?


What is Combine Cycle Gas Turbine ? 

Combine cycle gas turbine power plant  (CCGT) are combination of Gas Turbine and Steam Power Plant. Gas turbine generating the power from combustion chamber the momentum of combustion  propel the turbine wheel in Gas Turbine  this high temperature of  flue gas from gas turbines 560 C carries very high heat energy to be utilized in Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) to producing superheated steam ( 480 C)  to generate the power in Steam Turbine generator. 


Simple Diagram of CCGT


There is  two Heat Cycle  that Involved in CCGT  Operation

1. Rankine Cycle 
2. Brayton Cycle.
