Abstract:
In plants for generating steam using waste heat, the heat in the hot waste gases flowing through the steam generator must be utilized with maximum efficiency. To this end, the feed water is branched into two streams, one of which flows into the high-pressure heating surfaces and the other into the heating surfaces of the medium-pressure evaporator. The division of the two streams is controlled as a function of the quality of the steam, so that the steam in the heating surfaces of the intermediate superheater is heated to the same temperature as the steam in the heating surfaces of the high-pressure superheater. The invention is particularly useful in combined gas and steam turbine power plants.
Abstract:
A combined gas and steam turbine plant includes a coal gasification system having a heat exchanger device and preferably a gas scrubber connected downstream of the heat exchanger device. A gas turbine part is connected downstream of the coal gasification system and has an exhaust gas turbine. A steam generator system receives exhaust gas from the exhaust gas turbine and has an economizer heating surface, an evaporator heating surface, and superheater heating surfaces. A steam turbine part is connected to the steam generator system and has a high-pressure feedwater system. The heat exchanger device of the coal gasification system is connected in such a way that it directly transfers or gives up thermal energy for feedwater heating or steam generation to the high-pressure feedwater system of the steam turbine part.

A super-charged, coal-fired steam generator has an exhaust gas vent line connected to the gas turbine. The coal-fired steam generator includes at least one substoichiometrically operated fluidized bed furnace system, an integrated dust separator connected downstream of the at least one fluidized bed furnace system, and a steam generator slag tap or wet tap furnace having burners with a gas side connected downstream of the dust separator.
Abstract:
Monitoring system for a once-through steam generator for determining deviations between the amount of heat absorbed by the water and the steam of the generator and the amount of heat given off by a firing system for the generator during operating conditions that are not steady-state, as compared to steady-state operation, includes a first computing circuit responsive to a signal corresponding at least to an amount of fuel for determining a value approximately proportional to the amount of heat given off by the fuel, a second computing circuit responsive to a signal corresponding at least to an amount of feedwater for determining a value approximately proportional to the amount of heat absorbed by the water and the steam, a comparison circuit having inputs connected to respective outputs of the first and second computing circuits, a correction circuit connected between the output of one of the computing circuits and the respective input of the comparison circuit, the correction circuit including a correction member having an output variable only during an operating condition of the steam generator that is not steady-state, the variable output having an effect upon the value of the output of the one computer circuit that is fed to the respective input of the comparison circuit so that, during steady-state operation of the steam generator, the values of the outputs of the computer circuits to the inputs of the comparison circuit are returned as values representing substantially equal amounts of heat for heat given up by the fired fuel and for heat absorbed by the water and the steam.
Abstract:
Some part (a) of the bed material is withdrawn continuously (9e, 10) from the lower region of the fluidized bed (20), cooled (11), screened (12, 13) on a belt (a') to obtain a particle size specific to the fluidized bed, and then recycled to the fluidized bed (15, 18).
Abstract:
A process is disclosed for generating electric energy in a combined gas/steam generating power station in an environmentally acceptable manner by the efficient expansion of a high-pressure working medium in a gas turbine (4) and of high-pressure overheated steam from a fossil fuel fired steam generator (30) in a steam turbine (11). The sensible heat of the efficiently expanded working medium from the gas turbine (4) is transmitted to the combustion air (14) of the steam generator and part (20) of the expanded and cooled working medium from the gas turbine (4) is mixed into the fresh air to be compressed in the gas turbine. The steam (25) taken from the steam generator (30) is further heated before being expanded in a heat exchanger (7) arranged in the heating chamber of an additional fluidized bed furnace (8). The flue gases from the fluidized bed furnace are introduced into the heating chamber of the steam generator.
Abstract:
The waste (a) is dried in direct heat exchange with hot exhaust gas (r) from a coal-burning plant (10) and both the gas mixture (g) produced during drying (3) and the dry material (t) produced from the waste are fed into the coal-burning plant.
