Assessing the Efficiency of Circuit Solutions for LNG-Fueled GTP-Based Cogeneration Plants.

The paper presents a computational and analytical study of GTP-based cogeneration power plants, designed to produce electrical power using low-grade heat energy obtained from liquefied natural gas (LNG). Each energy system consists of three circuits. Results of thermodynamic calculations carried out for all circuits of the considered power plants are discussed, together with a comparison in terms of efficiency, power, and energy return coefficients, taking into account various working fluids and conditions at the boundaries of circuits.
