Abstract

In an intake-air refrigeration system of intake-air cooling type gas turbine power equipment, heat discharged to the atmosphere heretofore is recovered for further utilization. A refrigerant vapor discharged from and evaporator (05) of the refrigeration system is compressed by a refrigerant compressor (02) to be transformed to pressurized refrigerant vapor. Heat carried by the pressurized refrigerant vapor is supplied to a heat utilization system (80) to be recovered therein.
