    摘要: A combined cycle power plant including a gas turbine engine having a compressor inlet and a turbine outlet that is configured to discharge a first exhaust gas stream therefrom. A heat recovery steam generator is configured to receive the first exhaust gas stream, extract heat from the first exhaust gas stream to make steam, and discharge a second exhaust gas stream therefrom. A steam turbine is configured to discharge a steam stream therefrom, a carbon capture system is configured to receive the steam stream, a recirculation blower is configured to pressurize a portion of the second exhaust gas stream for recirculation towards the compressor inlet, and an air inlet blower is configured to pressurize an airflow stream channeled towards the compressor inlet, such that a pressurized mixed flow stream, formed from the portion of the second exhaust gas stream and the airflow stream, is received at the compressor inlet.

    摘要: A valve device includes: a valve box in which an inlet flow passage into which steam flows and an outlet flow passage through which the steam flows are formed, and in which a valve chamber that connects the inlet flow passage and the outlet flow passage is formed; and a plurality of valve bodies configured to regulate a flow rate of the steam flowing through the outlet flow passage by relative movement to the outlet flow passage. The valve box includes a valve box main body in which the inlet flow passage, the outlet flow passage, and an opening portion are formed, a lid portion that is attachable to and detachable from the valve box main body and closes the opening portion, and a cleaning nozzle that is disposed to penetrate through the lid portion and is configured to supply a cleaning liquid into the valve chamber from the outside.

    摘要: Provided is a corrosive environment monitoring device capable of monitoring the condition of a turbine for a long period of time without corrosion damage to a sensor caused by turbine steam. A corrosive environment monitoring device 10 includes: a steam extraction part 11 that extracts steam from inside of a casing 21 of a steam turbine 22 to outside thereof; a condensed water storage part 12 that stores therein condensed water produced by condensation of steam passing through the steam extraction part; and a corrosion factor sensor part 13 that detects properties of the condensed water. The condensed water storage part 12 includes a gap simulation part that simulates a gap inside the turbine and has a predetermined gap capable of storing the condensed water therein, and an annular channel formed on an outer periphery side of the gap simulation part. The corrosion factor sensor part 13 includes one or more sensors capable of measuring the properties of the condensed water, and a switching part configured to be capable of switching between contact and non-contact between the one or more sensors and the condensed water stored in the gap simulation part.

    摘要: This steam turbine comprises: a rotating shaft that extends along an axis; a plurality of rotor blades that are arranged in the circumferential direction and that extend in a radial direction from the outer circumferential surface of the rotating shaft; a casing body that covers the rotating shaft and the rotor blades from the outer circumference side; and a plurality of stationary blades that extend in the radial direction from a position on the inner circumferential surface of the casing body on the upstream side of the rotor blades and that are arranged in the circumferential direction. A plurality of microgrooves that extend in the steam flow direction are formed on the surface of the rotor blades and/or the stationary blades.
