Off-design performance analysis of combined CSP power and direct oxy-combustion supercritical carbon dioxide cycles حسب Ahmad K., Sleiti

"…At 76% of the full load, the cycle efficiency is reduced by 5.64% in S4 and by 4.35% in S3. Moreover, at the design point conditions, the increase of the CIT reduces the cycle efficiency (by 8%) but also reduces the amount of the consumed fuel (by 15.8%). …"
