Improving the efficiency of the resource-saving gas cooling system of the booster compressor unit as a part of the combined cycle plant

Versions of ways to increase efficiency of gas cooling system of booster four-stage centrifugal compressor unit used to provide fuel for required parameters of two gas-turbine plants as part of GTCC-90 combined-cycle plant are considered. The stages of solving the problem of resource saving of the cooling system with the traditional, passive and energy-saving approaches to its formation and the corresponding operating modes are reflected. Application area — combined cycle plants, natural gas compression facilities.
