Abstract: This paper presents exergetic and engineering analyses as well as a simulation of gas turbine-based cogeneration plants consisting of a gas turbine, heat recovery steam generator and steam turbine. The exergy analysis is based on the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The engineering analysis is based on both the methodology of levelized cost and the pay back period. To simulate these systems, an algorithm has been developed. Two cogeneration cycles, one consisting of a gas turbine and the other of a gas turbine and steam turbine and process to produce electricity and process heat have been analyzed. The results showed good agreement with the reported data.
