Abstract | ||||
The research suggests some means to increase the very low overall efficiency and power output of existing combined plant. The effect of changing some operating parameters on the performance of the combined plant is investigated. Optimum operating conditions are chosen to be run together lead to an increase of the net power output by 25.03% and the overall efficiency by 7.28%. Good correlations are obtained correlating the net power output and overall efficiency of the combined plant with the operating parameters. | ||||
