Simulating the Combined-Cycle Model of Chabahar Port under ISO and Ambient Temperature Conditions with an Inlet Cooling System

Abstract

At first, the Chabahar combined cycle power plant was modeled in the GT PRO module of the Thermoflow software package at an ambient temperature of 15 degrees and 40 degrees, and its energy and exergy were investigated and analyzed. Subsequently, a multi-effect thermal water desalination system was coupled with the power plant at an ambient temperature of 40 degrees and its effectiveness was analyzed. The analyzes carried out in the field of energy showed that under all the modeled conditions, the most thermal energy loss among the components of the Chabahar power plant cycle occurs in the condenser and the chimney outlet, respectively, and is transferred to the environment.
