    摘要: The present invention relates to a pressure-increasing unit (1) comprising first receiving means (2) for receiving a pipeline (4) conveying pressurized gas, at least one first pipeline (3) for further transferring the pressurized gas to applications utilizing it, and second receiving means (6) for receiving a second pipeline (5) conveying reduced-pressure gas returning from the applications. The present solution is characterized in that the receiving means (6) are connected with at least one pressure intensifier (7). This pressure intensifier, in turn, is connected to the first receiving means (2) receiving pressurized gas for transferring gas re-pressurized by a substitution means (8) back to the applications utilizing it.

    摘要: An acoustic resonance igniter uses gas expanding through a nozzle to form a sonic, or under-expanded supersonic, jet directed against the opening of a blind resonance cavity in a central body, setting up a high-frequency sonic resonance which heats the gas within the cavity. A pintle extends coaxially with the nozzle and injects liquid propellant into the jet. The liquid propellant ignites with the heated gas within the resonance cavity forming combustion gases. The combustion gases flow through openings in a flange which supports the resonance cavity into a combustion chamber in the same direction as the gas jet flows. The liquid propellant is injected from within the support flange in the direction of combustion gas flow to film cool the combustion chamber wall and the flange and the central body supported by the flange. The acoustic resonance igniter may form a rocket engine ignition torch or a RCS thruster.

    摘要: A combined cycle power plant including a gas turbine engine having a first compressor providing compressed air for combustion to form a hot working gas, and a turbine section for expanding the hot working gas. A first heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) is provided for receiving an exhaust gas flow from the turbine section to form a reduced temperature exhaust gas and to produce a high pressure steam flow which is provided to a high pressure steam turbine. A second compressor is provided for receiving and compressing the reduced temperature exhaust gas to add energy and form a reheated exhaust gas. A second heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) is provided for receiving and removing heat from the reheated exhaust gas to produce a low pressure steam flow, and a low pressure steam turbine is provided for receiving and expanding the low pressure steam flow.

    摘要: A method is provided for operation of an integrated solar combined-cycle power station. The power station includes a water/steam circuit having a steam turbine and a heat recovery steam generator through which hot exhaust gases from a gas turbine flow. The water/steam circuit is additionally supplied with heat from a solar array. In such a method, an optimum cost-benefit relationship is achieved in that the water/steam circuit is designed only for the full load on the gas turbine, and in that, when feeding additional power from the solar array into the water/steam circuit, the load on the gas turbine is reduced, on the basis of the power additionally fed in from the solar array, to such an extent that the total output power of the integrated solar combined-cycle power station remains substantially constant.
