A reliable heat balance and performance model is a key factor for a successful gas turbine power plant project. During early project stages it is necessary to determine whether and how the performance requirements can be achieved. At later stages in serves for identification of operational limits and to determine optimum operating points.
IPSEpro is the ideal platform for creating heat balance and performance models for gas turbine power plants, including combined-cycle and cogeneration plants.
You can also use IPSEpro to model advanced gas turbine designs at the component level, including compressor maps, cooling flows, and stage-by-stage analysis of the expander sections. IPSEpro thus enables you to evaluate advanced gas turbine designs and operation of those turbines when integrated with other technologies and thermodynamic cycles.
