摘要: Apparatus, systems, and methods store energy by liquefying a gas such as air, for example, and then recover the energy by regasifying the liquid and combusting or otherwise reacting the gas with a fuel to drive a heat engine. The process of liquefying the gas may be powered with electric power from the grid, for example, and the heat engine may be used to generate electricity. Hence, in effect these apparatus, systems, and methods may provide for storing electric power from the grid and then subsequently delivering it back to the grid.

摘要: A dispatch advisor for operating a power plant having at least one gas turbine with flexibility is described. The dispatch advisor can generate a representation of a flexible base load map for operating the power plant. The representation can include an aggregation of a primary base load operating space and an expanded portion of the base load operating space. The representation offers a range of operating values for operational parameters of the power plant during base load at various base load settings at predetermined ambient conditions and corresponding power output and efficiency values that are attained while operating the power plant at the range of operating values. This offers an operator of the power plant with flexibility in controlling the plant during base load.

The combustor is disposed within the diffuser plenum. The combustor includes a bulkhead, a hood, a combustion chamber and a hood cavity. The bulkhead is axially between the combustion chamber and the hood cavity. The hood is between the hood cavity and the diffuser plenum. The fuel injector assembly projects radially into the diffuser plenum from the case. The fuel injector assembly includes a fuel nozzle and a steam nozzle. The fuel nozzle is configured to inject fuel into the combustion chamber. The steam nozzle is configured to inject steam into the hood cavity.
