    摘要: A power generation system including a gas turbine is disclosed. The power generation system includes a steam supply system including a high-temperature high pressure superheater and a high-temperature intermediate pressure reheater; a steam turbine assembly including at least one of a non-condensing steam turbine, a high-pressure steam turbine section, an intermediate-pressure steam turbine section; and a low-pressure steam turbine section, and, a control system coupled to the steam supply system and to the steam turbine assembly. The control system configured to selectively control a supply of reheat steam to the non-condensing steam turbine and to the intermediate-pressure steam turbine section; and selectively control a supply of high pressure superheated steam to the non-condensing steam turbine and high-pressure steam turbine section.

    摘要: A power plant comprises a steam system, a first electrolyzer, a heat storage system, and a heat exchanger configured to exchange thermal energy between the steam system, the first electrolyzer and the heat storage system. A method of operating an electrolyzer in a combined cycle power plant comprises operating a steam system to convert water to steam, operating an electrolyzer in a standby mode, the electrolyzer configured to convert water and electricity to hydrogen and oxygen when the electrolyzer is in an operating mode, circulating water from the steam system through a heat exchanger, circulating a first heat transfer medium between the electrolyzer and the heat exchanger, and circulating a second heat transfer medium between the heat exchanger and a thermal storage container.

    摘要: A power production facility comprises a combined cycle power plant comprising a gas turbine engine configured to compress air for combustion with a fuel in a combustor to produce exhaust gas that can be used to produce rotational shaft power for generating electricity and a steam system configured to produce steam from water with the exhaust gas to rotate a steam turbine for generating additional electricity, an electrolyzer configured to generate H2 and O2, wherein the electrolyzer is configured to provide the H2 to the combustor for combustion and the O2 to portions of the gas turbine engine, and a heat exchanger configured to receive the O2 and fluid from the steam system and to heat the O2 before passing the O2 into portions of the gas turbine engine.

    摘要: Systems and methods for a partial state condenser are described. In one embodiment, the partial state condenser receives a working fluid, and includes a sense reservoir that holds the working fluid, a reservoir sensor that senses an electrical property of the working fluid, and a reservoir valve that is in fluid communication with the sense reservoir. The partial state condenser yet further includes a processor configured to execute instructions to determine a specific energy of the working fluid based on the electrical property of the working fluid. The processor is also configured to execute instructions to control the reservoir valve to regulate a flow of a portion of the working fluid from the sense reservoir based on the specific energy of the working fluid to maintain a two-phase saturation state associated with a saturation point within the partial state condenser based on the electrical property.
