PREFACE
On behalf of the Local Organizing Committee, I would like to welcome you to the 7th International Exergy, Energy
and Environment Symposium (IEEES7) taking place in the Advanced Engineering School ENSIAME of the
University of Valenciennes and du Hainaut-Cambrsis (UVHC), Valenciennes, France, from April 27th to 30th, 2015.
This is the seventh symposium, which is held this year in Valenciennes, France (2015), after Izmir in Turkey (2003);
Kos in Greece (2005); Evora in Portugal (2007); Sharjah in United Arab Emirates (2009), Luxor in Egypt (2011) and
Rize in Turkey (2013). Numerous novel topics and new trends will be introduced in this conference through several
plenary and keynote sessions which will be presented by internationally recognized experts.
The "7th International Exergy, Energy and Environment Symposium" (IEEES7), which is a multi-disciplinary
international conference, will again provide this year an opportunity for researchers, scientists and engineers to
present their recent advances and to discuss current problems, future needs and prospects in the areas of Exergy,
Energy and Environment. The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers from all countries, disciplines
and applications of energy, exergy and environment and to promote the exchange of new ideas and techniques in
the energy conversion and conservation in order to reach a best "energetic efficiency" in the future. During this
conference, a key attention will be given to the "Green transportation, sustainable mobility and Environment",
especially for the new developments of sustainable technologies for thermal comforts (heat pumps and air
conditioning), biofuels and alternative fuels for combustion engines, energy conversion and optimization, etc.
Furthermore, contributions about renewable and sustainable energy sources, energy strategies and policies,
carbon-free society and their complications will be addressed during this conference. The conference has received
a great attention. More than 200 papers have been accepted for the IEEES7from over 30 countries. IEEES7 offers
plenary lectures highlighting current developments and applications in the Exergy, Energy and Environment field
and keynote lectures for specific industrial applications in the following main topic areas:
- Topic A: Fluid Mechanics, Heat and Mass Transfer
- Topic B: CO2 Capture Environment Impact Assessment
- Topic C: Thermodynamics, Exergy and Energy Analyses
- Topic D: Energy Strategies and Policies
- Topic E: Measurements in Exergy, Energy and Environment processes
- Topic F: Sustainable Buildings
The program of the IEEES7 consists of about 110 oral presentations in four parallel sessions and over 90 poster
presentations. Poster presentations will be displayed, in the ENSIAME exhibition hall during the conference. We
hope that this conference will meet your expectations, facilitate and encourage communication of new ideas and
approaches between all those working on previous topics linked to the Exergy, Energy and Environment areas.
The organization of such a large conference is, of course, a great challenge, but has been enjoyable with the sincere
help from my colleagues of LAMIH UMR CNRS 8201 (Department of Mechanics) and outside of the University of
Valenciennes, in France (GEPEA, University of Nantes) and in Tunisia (LESTE, ENIM, University of Monastir). The
support by the International Advisory Committee is gratefully acknowledged. Moreover, the help provided by a
number of additional reviewers in the papers selection process is very much appreciated. The IEEES7 International
Advisory Committees contribution is also sincerely acknowledged.
The technical and financial contributions by a number of supporting institutions and sponsoring organizations are
gratefully acknowledged. I have to acknowledge, especially the aids received from the University of Valenciennes
(UVHC), the Advanced Engineering School (ENSIAME), the LAMIH UMR CNRS 8201, the Regional council of
Nord Pas de Calais, the Institut Carnot Arts, the Technopolis Transalley of Valenciennes, the Syndicat
Intercommunal d'Assainissement de Valenciennes (SIAV), the City Hall of Famars and finally Entropy Journal.
They were essential for a successful organization of this IEEES7. Our main partners during this conference, which
are International Journal of Energy Research, International Journal of Global Warming, International Journal of
Exergy, International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics and Entropy, are
acknowledged for their help and support to devote special issues for selected papers and to publish selected papers
from the IEEES7-2015 proceedings. Of course, I have to acknowledge the fruitful cooperation with the University
of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT, Oshawa, Canada) and the International Association of Hydrogen Energy
(IAHE, Florida, USA), which have been the historic partners of the IEEES.

Keywords: Exergy Analysis, Inlet Air Cooling, Gas Turbine
Abstract The climate condition affects the performance of the combined-cycle power plants. The efficiency of the combined cycle is significantly influenced by the temperature, pressure and humidity of the air. When the ambient air temperature increases, the density of the air decreases, and it leads to a reduction of power generated by the gas turbine. In this work, the energy and exergy analysis of a commercial gas turbine, with inlet air cooling, was performed. The effects of fogging system on gas-turbine performance studied. For this aim, the energy and exergy balances were obtained for each piece of equipment. Calculations have been made for four different cases for the regarded gas turbine system. Furthermore, exergetic efficiency, exergy destruction rates and improvement potentials were obtained, and the results of the study demonstrated graphically. It is concluded that the net power output of the gas turbine system increased at lower inlet temperatures and exergy destruction rates occurred from highest to lowest as combustion chamber (CC), gas turbine (GT) and air compressor (AC), respectively.
I. Introduction Energy is a fundamental concept of thermodynamics and power generation is one of the important application areas of engineering analysis. A Power plant which uses fossil fuel operates on the base of a vapor power cycle, a gas power cycle or both cycles as a combined cycle. In the conventional fossil fueled power plants, chemical energy of the fuel is first converted into mechanical energy and finally to electrical energy.
The efficiency of the cycle is significantly influenced by the temperature, pressure and humidity of the inlet air. When the ambient temperature increases, the density of the air decreases, and it leads to a reduction of power generated by the gas turbine. In order to avoid the loss of gas turbine power output during hot seasons, there is a need to use a cooling system to decrease the inlet air temperature. Furthermore, the increase in ambient air temperature also causes a significant increase in the gas turbine heat transfer rate and consequently operating cost rate. In order to overcome the loss of gas turbine power output during hot seasons is to cool the inlet air.
Many researchers have studied different cooling methods to enhance the performance of gas turbine plants operating at high-temperature environmental conditions. These cooling methods are mainly evaporative coolers, spray inlet coolers or fogging systems, and mechanical refrigeration or chillers (Ehyaei et al. 2011). Comparative performance analysis of evaporative cooling, refrigeration cooling, and mechanical cooling for compressor inlet air conducted by Kakaras et al. (2004). In a different work, a gas turbine cogeneration plant with inlet air cooling and evaporative after cooling studied by Khaliq and Dincer (2011) and they concluded that the energetic
and exergetic efficiencies of the system obviously increased via using the cooling processes. Sanaye and Tahani (2010) studied the effects of evaporative cooling on gas turbine performance. They proposed the prediction equations for the amount of actual increased net power output of various gas turbines. Chaker et al. (2002) provided the results of extensive experimental and theoretical studies, coupled with practical aspects learned in the design and implementation of nearly 500 inlet fogging systems on gas turbines ranging from 5 to 250 MW. They modeled the transient behavior of droplets for droplet diameters. Hosseini et al. (2007) have investigated the performance of gas turbines of a commercial power plant using media evaporative coolers and obtained that the payback period of the investment as four years. At an ambient temperature of 38C and a relative humidity of 8%, a temperature drop of 19C was achieved, that the output of the gas turbine of plant increases by 11 MW. Gord and Dashtebayaz (2009) proposed a system to enhance the gas turbine performance by reducing the inlet air temperature and reported that the performance of the cycle increased in range of 1.55%.
Utamura et al. (1998) determined that the power output of the gas turbine could be increased by 10% using 1% fogging under ambient conditions of 35C and 53% relative humidity. Bhargava et al. (2005) studied inlet air cooling effect on gas turbine performance by using fogging system and reported that high pressure inlet fogging could have different influencing effect on the performance of a Combine Cycle Power Plant. An analytical method for evaluating the applicability of combined cycle power plant with inlet air cooling developed by Yang et al. (2009). They concluded that inlet fogging is superior in terms of power output at 15-20C ambient temperatures when compared with chilling. Hartel et al. (2003) studied the effects of

fogging on the work of compression. Their results demonstrated that the beneficial effects of wet compression decreases when the droplet diameter increases. Ehyaei et al. (2011) investigated the effects of inlet fogging system on the first and second law efficiencies for a typical power plant. Athari et al. (2015) performed energy, exergy and exergoeconomic analyses of the integration of biomass gasification with a gas turbine plant incorporating fog cooling. Their results showed that increasing gas turbine inlet temperature improved the energy and exergy efficiencies. Salvi et al. (2002) emphasized the advantages of using an ejection cooling system and proposed the technique of compression inlet air cooling through an ejection system supplied by the exhaust heat of the gas turbine. Shirazi et al. (2014) have developed and modeled a thermal energy storage (ITES) system for cooling the inlet air of a gas turbine cycle and the results showed that the output power and exergetic efficiency of the plant improved by 11.63% and 3.59% respectively.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of fogging system on gas turbine performance. The influence of fogging system on the net power output is determined. Calculations have been made for four different cases for regarded gas turbine system. The cases based on different ambient temperatures. The results obtained by using energy and exergy analysis for the gas turbine system and compared by graphically.

II. Gas Turbine System Fig.1. shows the gas-turbine system operating on the basis of a Brayton cycle. The system consists of fogging sprayer, compressor, combustion chamber, gas turbine and generator. A fogging system has been installed to the air intake system of the investigated gas turbine which is a part of a combined cycle power plant, located in Marmara Region, Turkey. The nominal power output of the gas turbine is 239 MW at ISO conditions (15C and 60% RH). The mass flow of the air in the compressor is 649 kgs-1 and the pressure ratio is 16 bar.
In fogging system, water mist is sprayed by nozzles in the upstream of the filters in the opposite direction to the compressor air flow direction to increase gas-turbine power output. There are a total number of 5400 nozzles and operates at 70 bar.
Fig. 1: Block flow diagram of the gas turbine
High purity demineralized water is used in the fogging sprayer which is prepared by the reverse osmosis system. The pH of the water is set between 6-7 at the outlet of the reverse osmosis. First, water is stored in a tank and subsequently pumped to nozzles. In the nozzles, demineralized water is atomized by using droplets which have less than 50 micron diameter. Then the water mist enters to the air flow passage and afterwards evaporates quickly giving a cooling effect when exposed to the air stream.
Therefore evaporative cooling has some limitations based on the ambient humidity conditions which can be determined by a psychometric chart (Fig. 2).

III. Energy and Exergy Analysis
The performance of the system can be analyzed via applying the conservation principles of energy that is described by the first law of thermodynamics. On the other hand, exergy is a very important tool in analyzing and designing the energy systems. The exergy method provides effective assistance in identifying, evaluating and reducing the thermodynamic inefficiencies and highlights the possible improvements.
The general exergy balance equation can be expressed as follows:
k,Dk,Lk,Pk,F &&&& ++= (6)
Here the F, P, L, and D indices are for fuel, product, loss and destruction, respectively.
Exergy loss and exergy destruction can be formulated as follows, respectively:
( )T/T.Q okk,L = 1& (7) k,genk,D ST && 0= (8)
Physical exergy is defined as follows

IV. Results and Discussion Calculations are carried out considering different inlet temperatures at constant humidity (40%) of air. For this aim, four distinct cases are determined. In the cases 25, 30, 35 and 40 C selected as the ambient temperatures at the inlet of the fogging system.
The exergy analysis has been performed with the following assumptions:
The system is in a steady state, and potential and kinetic energy effects are negligible.

Air and natural gas are ideal gases. The gain and loss of heat, pressure drops have
been neglected, and all equipment operates adiabatically.
Natural gas is completely burned in the combustion chamber and the NOx emissions that are produced as a result of the combustion within the gas engine are negligible.
The percentage of O2 in the flue gas assumed as 13,459% in all cases.
Relative humidity of the air assumed as 90% in the downstream of the fogging system.
The mass flow rate in the air compressor is 649 kgs-1 in all cases.
Environmental conditions were taken as the reference state for each case.

Due to the exergetic evaluation, it was found that the efficiency of GT is higher than the efficiency of CC while the AC was the highest one among the components in each case (Tab. 7). Furthermore, the highest amount of exergy destruction and improvement potentials occurred in combustion chamber and the lowest values occurred in air compressor in the cases (Tab. 7).
V. Conclusions The performance of a gas turbine power plant can be affected by many parameters. Among these, the temperature of combustion air plays an important role and directly affects the net power output. In this study, exergetic analysis of a gas turbine with fogging system was performed. According to the results, the performance of the gas turbine system decreased with the increase in the intake air temperature.
Furthermore, the gas turbine system was also investigated from the exergetic view point. Based on the results, exergy destruction rates were ranged from highest to lowest as CC, GT and AC within the cases. Additionally, best improvement potential has been obtained for the CC while the most efficient component was the AC in all cases.
In conclusion, exergy is a very important tool in analyzing and designing energy systems. The methodology and results of this work can be useful in the analysis and design of similar systems. The results of the present study can be used as a basis for exergoeconomic evaluation.
