Combined Cycle Gas Turbine

Gas turbine-based combined cycle power plants are currently the most efficient thermal power generating technologies. They are the preferred choice for flexible, utility-size power generation. In addition to their superior efficiency compared to conventional steam boiler power plants, combined cycle plants have notable benefits in terms of their comparatively minimal environmental effect, exceptional operational adaptability, and expedited project implementation durations.

The energy experience encompasses both single-shaft and multi-shaft configurations, as well as a diverse selection of gas turbine models from top Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) such as GE, Siemens, Alstom, and Ansaldo. This includes both heavy-duty industrial turbines and aero-derivative turbines. A versatile methodology is employed, allowing for the identification of the most suitable solution for the plant’s intended mode of operation in each specific scenario.

Energy combined cycle solutions by WHT utilize known reference plant concepts as a foundation for design while also offering flexibility to accommodate client needs and fulfill local market and project-specific constraints. We collaborate extensively with the power-train manufacturer to incorporate established product advancements and insights gained from past operational experience into the plant design. Therefore, the most recent technology and operating philosophies are accessible in several fields, including:

Enhance the plant’s economic dispatch by improving its flexibility, including reducing start-up and shut-down times and optimizing cycling processes.

Performance enhancements encompass methods such as pre-heating natural gas, cooling incoming air, and optimizing efficiency at partial loads.

Utilizing cutting-edge NOx reduction techniques, emission controls are implemented.

WHT’s extensive experience in multiple combined cycle projects, encompassing various configuration types, enables us to expertly choose and integrate all plant components, ensuring a dependable and efficient long-term operation.

3-D Modelling Tools

We use advanced 3D modeling tools to create comprehensive, detailed plant designs. As a result, your investment’s design quality will increase, and the building time will decrease.

Equipment accessibility is just one example of how these tools make it possible to consider operations and maintenance even when designing.
