In the present work, the results are reported of the energy and exergy analyses of three biomass-related processes for … energy and exergy efficiencies are maximized for the three configurations at particular values of compressor pressure ratios … ratio of mass of air per mass of steam for the other cycles. The gas turbine exergy efficiency is the highest for the three …

fog cooling and steam injection, and integrated with biomass gasification, is proposed and analyzed with energy, exergy … turbine inlet temperature raises the energy and exergy efficiencies. On the component level, the gas turbine is determined to … have the highest exergy efficiency and the combustor the lowest. The exergoeconomic analysis reveals that the proposed …
