摘要:
In a method of operating a combined cycle system including a gas turbine (14), a steam turbine (22,24) and a multi-pressure heat recovery steam generator, an improvement includes supplying (90,74) gas turbine cooling duty steam from a high pressure section (22) of the steam turbine and from an intermediate pressure evaporator (46) in the multi-pressure heat recovery steam generator, conducting the gas turbine cooling duty steam to the gas turbine for cooling hot gas turbine parts, and then returning the gas turbine cooling duty steam to an intermediate pressure section (24) of the steam turbine. In a start-up procedure, steam is extracted from a first pass (52) of a high pressure superheater (52,54,58) in the multi-pressure heat recovery steam generator, mixed with steam discharged from the high pressure superheater (58) and then supplied to the gas turbine cooling duty system. In this same start-up procedure, the gas turbine cooling duty steam is returned to the system condenser, bypassing the intermediate pressure section of the steam turbine. Related apparatus is also disclosed.

A method of vaporizing liquified natural gas fuel for a gas turbine (16) comprises the steps of:
a) matching cooling requirements for turbine inlet air to heating requirements for the liquified natural gas; b) passing 100% of the turbine inlet air in heat exchange relationship in an inlet chiller (22) with 100% of the liquified natural gas; c) passing cooled turbine inlet air into a compressor (12) of the gas turbine (16); and d) passing vaporized liquified natural gas into the combustion system (14) of the gas turbine.

A system is disclosed for adjusting a gas turbine firing temperature control algorithm and combustion reference temperature algorithms based on exhaust gas temperature (36), turbine pressure ratio (32) and compressor discharge temperature (34) for water content in the air entering the compressor (12) differing from the design water content of ambient air. The water content in the ambient air is calculated by the control system (30) from measured data from a dry bulb temperature sensor (40) and a wet bulb temperature or humidity sensor (42).
摘要:
In a combined cycle system having a multi-pressure heat recovery steam generator (30), a gas turbine (14) and steam turbine (18), steam for cooling gas turbine components is supplied from the intermediate pressure section of the heat recovery steam generator supplemented by a portion of the steam exhausting from the HP section of the steam turbine, steam from the gas turbine cooling cycle and the exhaust from the HP section of the steam turbine are combined for flow through a reheat section (50) of the HRSG. The reheated steam is supplied to the IP section inlet (22) of the steam turbine. Thus, where gas turbine cooling steam temperature is lower than optimum, a net improvement in performance is achieved by flowing the cooling steam exhausting from the gas turbine and the exhaust steam from the high pressure section of the steam turbine in series through the reheater of the HRSG for applying steam at optimum temperature to the IP section of the steam turbine.
摘要:
In a combined cycle power generation system which includes a gas turbine; a steam turbine; and a heat recovery steam generator which includes a superheater section and an evaporator section, and wherein condensate from the steam turbine is reheated in the heat recovery steam generator by exhaust gas from the gas turbine and returned via a main steam outlet to the steam turbine, a method of effecting start-up of the steam turbine comprising the steps of:
a) dumping a portion of the gas turbine exhaust gas to atmosphere, while simultaneously introducing a remaining portion of the gas turbine exhaust gas to the heat recovery steam generator; b) with the main steam outlet from the heat recovery steam generator closed, extracting steam from an intermediate location in the superheater and supplying the extracted steam to the steam turbine at a temperature between about 550-1000°F; and, after the steam turbine is started and a warm-up cycle completed, c) terminating the extraction of steam from the intermediate location in the superheater and opening the main steam outlet from the heat recovery steam generator.
