A combined cycle power plant is provided herein. The combined cycle power plant may include an engine that generates an exhaust gas. The combined cycle power plant may also include a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) configured to transfer excess energy from the exhaust gas to create steam. Further, the combined cycle power plant may include at least one airfoil shaped heat storage device positioned within the HRSG. The at least one airfoil shaped heat storage device may comprise a phase-change material configured to store and release excess energy from the exhaust gas to create additional steam. Moreover, the combined cycle power plant may include a steam turbine configured to receive the steam from the HRSG and the at least one airfoil shaped heat storage device. |
