Capstone CHAPTER 7 PERFORMANCE Figure 7-1. Net Power vs Ambient Temperature Efficiency and Fuel Heating Value Gas turbines combust fuel to expand the incoming air, drive a turbine wheel to generate torque, and thereby produce mechanical power. The recuperator in the Capstone microturbine transfers some of the energy in the exhaust leaving the turbine section to preheat incoming compressed air, thereby reducing the amount of fuel needed to expand the air driving the turbine. This results in increased efficiency. However, the exhaust leaving the recuperator is still at sufficiently high temperature that the products of combustion remain in vapor state. The products of combustion for a hydrocarbon fuel are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The heating value of the fuel used in any engine can be calculated two ways; 1. Lower Heating Value – the energy associated with condensation of water vapor is not considered. 2. Higher Heating Value – the energy of water condensation taken back to ambient temperature is added to the lower heating value of the fuel. 410066 Rev C (June 2009) 7-2 Capstone reserves the right to change or modify, without notice, the design, specifications, and/or contents of this document without incurring any obligation either with respect to equipment previously sold or in the process of construction.PDF Image | CAPSTONE C200 MICROTURBINE TECHNICAL REFERENCE
