Aim: Recent technological development has brought the gas turbine to the forefront as the most important generator of electric power. A number of existing and future power station types are presented in order to present old ideas and introduce novel ideas and demonstrate the usefulness of the more advanced thermodynamic concepts.
Contents: The gas turbine as a prime mover. The most recent development in the areas of technology, construction, and process design. Situations in which the gas turbine is expected to play an important role. In-depth study of a power station based on one or more novel ideas with respect to process design (heat recovery, suction air cooling, injection of water for intercooling, etc.)
