摘要: A power conversion system including a first working fluid circuit and a second working fluid circuit. Heat, e.g. waste heat from a top, high-temperature thermodynamic cycle, is transferred to working fluid circulating in the first working fluid circuit and expanded in a first expander to generate useful mechanical power. A heat transfer arrangement is provided, between the first working fluid circuit and second working fluid circuit, configured for transferring low-temperature heat from the first working fluid circuit to the second working fluid circuit. In the second working fluid circuit working fluid is processed, which is expanded in at least one expander to generate useful mechanical power which is used to power a pump or compressor of the first working fluid circuit. The heat of the expanded gas is further used in a second recuperator to pre-heat the first working fluid.

摘要: A variable geometry assembly for modulating a fluid flow in a turbomachine is disclosed. The assembly comprises a first ring having a plurality of first wedge-shaped elements and having an axis, and a second ring having a plurality of second wedge-shaped elements and having an axis. The second ring is substantially coaxial to the first ring. The second wedge-shaped elements co-act with the first wedge-shaped elements. Flow passages are defined between pairs of sequentially arranged first wedge-shaped elements and second wedge-shaped elements. The first ring and the second ring are angularly displaceable one with respect to the other. Moreover, the first ring and the second ring are configured to move axially with respect to one another when the first ring and the second ring are angularly displaced one with respect to the other.

摘要: A turbomachine has a casing where liquid may accumulate; at least one liquid level detector is located inside the casing for automatically detecting liquid accumulated inside the casing during operation of the turbomachine; the liquid level detector may be arranged for detecting one or two or three or four liquid levels inside the casing; the liquid level detector is typically connected to an electronic unit at least for automatically signaling the liquid level. The electronic unit controls at least one valve for automatically discharging the accumulated liquid from the casing; in this way, the status of the turbomachine is not only monitored but also managed.

摘要: A method and apparatus are disclosed for reducing flow induced vibration in at least one subsea structure. The method comprises the steps of, via at least one subsea acoustic sensor (190), detecting at least one characteristic associated with acoustic energy in sea water proximate to the sensor (190), responsive to the detected characteristic, varying at least one operational parameter of a fluid flowing along a fluid flow pathway associated with a pipe member (160).

摘要: The gas turbine engine comprises a gas generator (66), comprised of a compressor section (11), and a power turbine section (65). The power turbine section (65) comprises a power turbine rotor (81) supported by a power turbine shaft (93), which is mechanically uncoupled from the gas generator (66). The power turbine shaft (93) has an axial cavity (511) therein, fluidly coupled to a bearing sump (521) fluidly coupled to the compressor section (11) and housing at least one bearing (106) supporting a shaft of the gas generator (66). An air venting path (527) extends from said axial cavity (511) and leads in a combustion gas flow path (515) downstream of the power turbine rotor (81).

摘要: A method for safe gas turbine startup is disclosed. The method comprises a first step wherein a fuel metering valve (33) arranged along a fuel delivery line is tested for possible leakages. If the leakage test is successfully passed, a subsequent turbine startup step can be performed. Further disclosed is a gas turbine engine (3) comprising a fuel supply system (20) comprised of a fuel delivery line (21) and a valve arrangement (23) positioned along said fuel delivery line (21). The valve arrangement (23) further comprises sequentially arranged shut off valves (25, 29, 31) and a fuel metering valve (33), positioned downstream of the shut off valves (25, 29, 31). A pressure measuring arrangement (43, 45, 47) is further provided, adapted to measure fuel pressure in at least one portion of the fuel delivery line (21) upstream of the fuel metering valve (33).
