摘要:
Ambient air is compressed into a compressed ambient gas flow with a main air compressor. The compressed ambient gas flow having a compressed ambient gas flow rate is delivered to a turbine combustor and mixed with a fuel stream having a fuel stream flow rate and a portion of a recirculated low oxygen content gas flow to form a combustible mixture. The combustible mixture is burned and forms the recirculated low oxygen content gas flow that drives a turbine. A portion of the recirculated low oxygen content gas flow is recirculated from the turbine to the turbine compressor using a recirculation loop. The compressed ambient gas flow rate and the fuel stream flow rate are adjusted to achieve substantially stoichiometric combustion. An excess portion, if any, of the compressed ambient gas flow is vented. A portion of the recirculated low oxygen content gas flow is extracted using an extraction conduit.
摘要:
At least one main air compressor makes a compressed ambient gas flow. The compressed ambient gas flow is delivered to a turbine combustor at a pressure that is greater than or substantially equal to an output pressure delivered to the turbine combustor from a turbine compressor as at least a first portion of a recirculated gas flow. A fuel stream is delivered to the turbine combustor, and a combustible mixture is formed and burned, forming the recirculated gas flow. A turbine power is produced that is substantially equal to at least a power required to rotate the turbine compressor. At least a portion of the recirculated gas flow is recirculated through a recirculation loop. An excess portion of the recirculated gas flow is vented or a portion of the recirculated gas flow bypasses the turbine combustor or both.
摘要:
At least one main air compressor makes a compressed ambient gas flow. The compressed ambient gas flow is delivered to both master and slave turbine combustors at a pressure that is greater than or substantially equal to an output pressure delivered to each turbine combustor from each turbine compressor as at least a first portion of a recirculated gas flow. A fuel stream is delivered to each turbine combustor, and combustible mixtures are formed and burned, forming the recirculated gas flows. A master and slave turbine power are produced, and each is substantially equal to at least a power required to rotate each turbine compressor. At least a portion of the recirculated gas flow is recirculated through recirculation loops. At least a second portion of the recirculated gas flow bypasses the combustors or an excess portion of each recirculated gas flow is vented or both.
摘要:
Ambient air is compressed into a compressed ambient gas flow and delivered to a turbine combustor. At least one of an exhaust port, a bypass conduit, or an extraction conduit is opened to vent the power plant. A turbine shaft is rotated at an ignition speed and a fuel stream is delivered to the turbine combustor for mixing with the compressed ambient gas flow to form a combustible mixture. The combustible mixture is burned and forms a recirculated gas flow that drives the turbine. The recirculated gas flow is recirculated using the recirculation loop. The turbine is operated at a target operating speed and then reaches substantially stoichiometric combustion. At least a portion of the recirculated gas flow is extracted using an extraction conduit that is fluidly connected to the turbine compressor.

A retaining ring for a turbine nozzle of a gas turbine is disclosed. The retaining ring includes a main body and a pair of circumferential retaining lands projecting inward radially from the main body. The pair of circumferential retaining lands may be configured to be attached to a nozzle. Additionally, each retaining land of the pair of circumferential retaining lands may be segmented along its circumferential length.

A system and method for supplying cooling air to the turbine section of a gas turbine. The system may include a compressed air supply, an ambient air supply, and an ejector for entraining the ambient air supply with the compressed air supply to form a cooling air supply. In a gas turbine including a compressor section and a turbine section, the method may include extracting compressed air from the compressor section, entraining ambient air with the compressed air to form cooling air, and directing the cooling air to the turbine section.

A system for supporting a nozzle assembly includes a first member connected to a stationary component and a second member extending from the first member radially through at least a portion of the nozzle assembly. A distal end of the second member is radially displaced from the first member and configured to contact the nozzle assembly. A method for supporting a nozzle assembly includes connecting a first member to a stationary component and extending a second member from the first member radially through at least a portion of the nozzle assembly. The method further includes contacting a distal end of the second member to the nozzle assembly, wherein the distal end is radially displaced from the first member.

A combined cycle power plant includes a first compressor that produces a compressed working fluid and a turbine downstream of the first compressor. The turbine includes stationary components and rotating components and produces an exhaust. A heat exchanger downstream of the turbine receives the exhaust from the turbine, and a second compressor downstream of the heat exchanger and upstream of the turbine receives the exhaust from the heat exchanger and provides a flow of exhaust to the turbine. A method for reducing oxygen emissions from a gas turbine includes flowing an exhaust from a turbine to a heat exchanger and removing heat from the exhaust. The method further includes increasing the pressure of the exhaust to produce a pressurized exhaust and flowing the pressurized exhaust back to the turbine to remove heat from the turbine.
