Abstract
A power plant () that includes at least one of a gas turbine (GT), a steam turbine (ST) with a water-steam cycle, and a heat recovery steam generator (B) operatively connected to a heat generating member such as solar energy system (S) by means of a primary circuit () and a secondary circuit system (). The primary heat transfer circuit () includes solar heating system (S) configured to heat a primary fluid (), and the secondary circuit () comprises a flow line (A) for a secondary flow () and a main heat exchanger () to exchange heat between the secondary water flow and a gas turbine inlet air flow (). A first line (B) in the primary circuit () leads to a first heat exchanger () to heat the water flow in the secondary circuit ().
