Abstract
The integrated gasification combined cycle power plant using hydrocarbon fuels produces cleaner and more efficient electricity
through gasification, compared to direct fuel burning. In this paper, the power plant has been simulated and validated by
Thermoflow software according power plant characteristics. The assumptions are applied and exergy analysis is done using EES
software. The results of energy and power consumption analysis of the obtained components and exergy analysis are applied to find
the values and locations of system irreversibility. The net output of the cycle and thermal efficiency are 234.89 MW and 30.69%
respectively. The exergy efficiency of the power plant is 45.57%. Maximum amount of irreversibility is from the gasifire, gas
cleanup system, and HRSG, respectively 216.600, 210.607 and 113.653 MW. Finally, the cycle is analyzed parametrically and the
effects of the gas temperature change and pressure of the condenser on the efficiency and final power of the power plant have
investigated.
Keywords: Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle, Gasification, coal, Energy Analysis, Exergy Analysis.
