Popis: The article is dedicated to the study of the feasibility of increasing the efficiency, reliability and manufacturability of existing gas turbine power plants with additive technologies that allow creating recuperators with regeneration degrees of 90...95%. The characteristics are presented for the following gas turbine power plants: TEEDA (Iran) 3.13 MW, ODK Perm Motors GTU-4P (Russia) 4.13 MW, Siemens SGT-100 (Germany) 5.1 MW, Solar Turbines Taurus 60 (USA) 5.67 MW. The research was carried out using the methods and programs of the Higher School of Power Engineering for the calculation of thermal circuits of GTPP. The dependences of effective efficiency, work ratio, effective specific work and specific consumption of conventional fuel of GTPPs under examination on compressor pressure ratio and regeneration factor are obtained. Solving the problem of increasing the regeneration factor in GTPP (above 0.9) requires the development of special designs of heat exchanger matrices of the recuperator, which is only possible with the use of additive technologies and new heat-resistant materials. Promising recuperators have a more complex design of heat exchange matrices, which ensures their being very compact. Such technical solutions can ensure the development and creation of fundamentally new designs of GTPP heat exchangers and significantly improve their technical characteristics.
