Significantly increasing consumption and demand in conventional fossil energy
sources require energy sources to be more efficient and sustainable. In this
study, it is aimed to increase the efficiency of the systems by using
thermodynamic cycles from waste heat sources. The designed system is aimed
at increasing the efficiency of the system by adding sub-cycles of the
waste heat of a gas turbine. The results analyzed with the engineering
equation solver program, when all the cycles are combined, the system
energy efficiency is 75% and the total exergy efficiency is 24%. Brayton
cycle when the system is evaluated alone, the energy efficiency of the
system is 65%, the exergy efficiency is 14%. The S-CO2 cycle system when the
system is evaluated alone, the exergy efficiency is 23% and the exergy
efficiency is 11%. The ORC system when the system is evaluated alone, the
exergy efficiency is 19% and the exergy efficiency is 22%. Rankine system
when the system is evaluated alone, the exergy efficiency is 17% and the
exergy efficiency is 88%. Turbine inlet temperatures tend to decrease as the
exergy destruction in the system also affects the subcomponents.
