An external fluid in a closed loop is used to cool hot gas path components of gas turbine. After cooling the turbine components, the heated external fluid is dumped either in the compressor discharge casing or in the one of the turbine's stages. Where the external fluid is nitrogen to be dumped in the turbine compressor's discharge casing, the nitrogen is compressed using diluent nitrogen compressors. Alternatively, where the external fluid is nitrogen to be dumped in one of the stages of the turbine, the nitrogen is not compressed at all. The turbine blade heat exchangers in the turbine stages through which the nitrogen passes can be connected in parallel or in series for cooling the hot gas path components in the turbine stages. The nitrogen can optionally be mixed with air or steam or not mixed at all.

An integrated turbomachine oxygen plant includes a turbomachine and an air separation unit. One or more compressor pathways flow compressed air from a compressor through one or more of a combustor and a turbine expander to cool the combustor and/or the turbine expander. An air separation unit is operably connected to the one or more compressor pathways and is configured to separate the compressed air into oxygen and oxygen-depleted air. A method of air separation in an integrated turbomachine oxygen plant includes compressing a flow of air in a compressor of a turbomachine. The compressed flow of air is flowed through one or more of a combustor and a turbine expander of the turbomachine to cool the combustor and/or the turbine expander. The compressed flow of air is directed to an air separation unit and is separated into oxygen and oxygen-depleted air.

An integrated turbomachine plant is provided and includes a combustor a turbomachine operably connected to the combustor and including a compressor and a turbine expander, a pathway to flow compressed air from the compressor through the turbine expander to heat the compressed air, an additional pathway by which high temperature fluids output from the turbomachine are employed to heat the compressed air and an air separation unit operably connected to the pathway and configured to separate the heated compressed air into oxygen and oxygen-depleted air.
摘要:
Systems are disclosed herein for enhancing energy usage while pressurizing a carbonaceous gas. Such systems include a carbon dioxide (CO2) liquefaction system. The CO2 liquefaction system includes a first cooling system capable of cooling a CO2 gas to liquefy greater than approximately 50 percent of the CO2 gas. The first cooling system produces a first CO2 liquid. The CO2 gas pressure is less than approximately 3450 kilopascals (500 pounds per square inch absolute).
