The article studies the possibility of application combined-cycle gas turbine plants (CCGT) in the Russian Navy. A review of numerous publications allows to infer that the essential increase of ship power plant (SPP) efficiency (10-15%) can be reached by using combine-cycle gas turbine plants. It should be noted that the greatest effect on CCGT performance makes the level of technological sophistication of gas-turbine units (GTU), in particular, the gas temperature achieved before the turbine. The possibility of creating marine CCGT in Russia is being explored. The article contains examples of the use of GTUs on board foreign ships. Close attention is drawn to the advanced techniques used to increase CCGT efficiency. There have been presented calculations of the approved scheme of CCGT, which demonstrate the advantages of using CCGTs.
