The demand of power is increasing day by day and fossil fuels are depleting at an enormous rate, which has made the power plants of specific interest with regards to not only efficiency but the use of various fuels. Most of the power plants are designed by the energetic performance criteria based on first law of thermodynamics only. The real useful energy loss cannot be justified by the first law of thermodynamics; because it does not differentiate between the quality and quantity of energy. Therefore, the present work is an attempt to analyse the exergy of the various components of gas turbine section of combined cycle Power Plant and determine major losses of available energy the exergy efficiency at each and every location. The fuels taken into consideration are CNG, Naphtha and light diesel oil (LDO). The performances of the system under these varying parameters for different fuels used for combustion were also investigated in order to determine the exergy and the effect of change of fuel up to the gas turbine section of combined cycle power plant.
