Energy, 2004, vol. 29, issue 12, 2347-2358

Abstract: The generated power and efficiency of gas turbine plants depend on the temperature of the inlet air. At high ambient temperatures, a power loss of more than 20%, combined with a significant increase in specific fuel consumption, compared to ISO standard conditions (15 °C), can be observed.
