The aim of the present paper is to examine the effect of ambient temperature on the performance of a combined cycle power plant. For this work, the combined cycle plant chosen is NTPC (National Thermal Power Corporation) Dadri, India where a gas unit of 817 MW is installed. The effect of ambient temperature on combined cycle efficiency, gas turbine cycle efficiency, exergy destruction in different components, exergy loss via exhaust and air fuel ratio at lower and higher turbine inlet temperature are reported. The results show that the net decrease in combined cycle efficiency is 0.04% and the variation in exergy destruction of different plant components is up to 0.35% for every °C rise in ambient temperature.
