Abstract:
The present application provides a power generation system. The power generation system may include a core turbine positioned about a core rotor shaft, a power turbine positioned about a power rotor shaft, a synchronous generator including a generator rotor shaft coupled to the power rotor shaft for rotation therewith, and an electronic controller in operable communication with the synchronous generator. The synchronous generator may be configured to generate reactive power for or absorb reactive power from an electric power grid when the power generation system operates in a reactive power mode. The electronic controller may be operable to cause the core rotor shaft to rotate when the power generation system operates in the reactive power mode.
Abstract:
A method of configuring a power generation unit for synchronous condensing operation includes coupling a clutch to a generator shaft of a generator without moving the generator along a generator axis of the generator shaft. The method also includes coupling the clutch to a turbine shaft of a turbine via a spacer without moving the turbine along a turbine axis of the turbine. Furthermore, the generator shaft is configured to support a weight of the clutch without a clutch pedestal support.
Abstract:
A system a first mobile body configured to support a turbine engine and an auxiliary skid communicatively and fluidly coupled to the turbine engine. The auxiliary skid includes one or more interconnects configured to support a turbine engine component. The system also includes a second mobile body configured to support a generator. The first and second mobile bodies are configured to align a removable coupling between the turbine engine and the generator.
