    摘要: A multi-shaft variable speed gas turbine apparatus includes a multi-shaft gas turbine having a gas turbine compressor, a gas turbine burner, a gas generator provided with a first turbine for rotationally driving the gas turbine compressor, and a power turbine, provided with a second turbine that is mechanically separated from the gas generator, rotationally driven by exhaust gas of the gas generator, and having a main generator. A sub-electric motor/generator is connected to the gas generator, and a frequency converter controls the sub-electric motor/generator. A fuel flow rate control valve adjusts output using a fuel flow rate to be injected into the gas turbine burner. Variation of the fuel flow rate is restricted, and a control device determines a drive load of the gas turbine compressor in accordance with an output load for a request load, and controls the sub-electric motor/generator using the frequency converter.

    摘要: In order to enhance the tracking performance of power generation equipment with respect to a load variation and increase the reliability of the power generation equipment, a dynamic characteristic model simulating the dynamic characteristics of a multi-shaft gas turbine is used to calculate an output prediction value of a first power generator in a case where a combustor is controlled so as to match the output of the first power generator to an output target value; on the basis of the output target value and the output prediction value of the first power generator, a first power generator output instruction value as an instruction value for the output from the first power generator to a power system and a second power generator output instruction value as an instruction value for the output from a second power generator to the power system are calculated; and the combustor is controlled on the basis of the first power generator output instruction value and a frequency convertor is controlled on the basis of the second power generator output instruction value.
