It is necessary for thermal power plant to achieve high heat efficiency and to use an alternative energy source because of global warming and exhaustion of fossil fuels. Heat efficiency of latest thermal power plants reaches to 60% and researches to achieve more high heat efficiency are done, for example, rising burning temperature and pressure ratio. However these measures can improve heat efficiency only few points. In this study, we try to get jumping raise of heat efficiency by reducing compression work of air compressor. To reduce compression work, we devise new system which liquefies air by using cool heat of liquid hydrogen and we propose to use liquid oxygen as the oxidizer. In this paper, we explain about this new system and calculated results which reaches 73% of heat efficiency.
