Abstract
The semi-closed oxy-fuel gas turbine cycle has been suggested in (Ulizar and Pilidis, 1997) as an alternative for power production with CO2 capture capabilities. This article is concerned with two critical design decisions for a similar process. Optimizations are used on a simulation model to evaluate part load performance for four different control structures. Finally a model predictive controller is implemented for each of the structures, and closed loop simulations are used to assess the differentcontrol structures.
