Modern applications like processing and petrochemical plants rely on gas turbine power cycles for a number of reasons. This article presents the results of a thermodynamic analysis of a gas turbine power plant's open cycle. We calculated and double-checked the outcomes and strategies for each endeavour. Gas turbine plant high temperature productivity, power output, and heat rate are analyzed to determine the impact of operating restrictions including ambient temperature, relative humidity, fan pressure fraction, turbine bay temperature (TIT), and isentropic fan and turbine efficiency. The in-house code was written in MATLAB. The information generated by the code was used to draw various important figures. The findings demonstrate that thermal efficiency can be considerably impacted by pressure ratio, ambient temperature, air-fuel ratio, and isentropic efficiency.
