Low Sulfur

An Internally fired semi-closed cycle gas turbine for Naval propulsion was designed and built for the U.S. Navy by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation. Due to a revision of the overall Navy propulsion program the plant was not tested at design conditions or mode of operation, but feasibility information for this configuration of gas turbine plant was obtained. Plant tests indicated that this cycle configuration can be expected to attain a significant reduction in shipboard space and weight requirements while matching existing conventional propulsion plant fuel and air consumption rates over a wide load range. The plant further is simply controlled to minimize manning personnel, permit bridge control, and has a brief transient period from cruise power to full load. Plants of this cycle configuration can be expected to produce large powers such as required for main ship propulsion while employing components of the size where considerable industrial experience has been accumulated. Fouling and corrosion of the internally fired, semi-closed cycle gas turbine were evaluated by the tests. Conventional gas turbine components are satisfactory for low sulfur fuel operation, and with additional precooler equipment development it is expected that high sulfur fuel operation will be achieved.

An investigation into the potential benefits of thermochemical recuperation and partial oxidation in advanced natural gas-fired turbine systems is being carried out by a team consisting of the Westinghouse Electric Corporation and the Institute of Gas Technology under contract to the U.S. Department of Energy and the Gas Research Institute. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the application of thermochemical recuperation and/or partial oxidation technologies to advanced natural gas-fired power generation systems provides performance and/or cost benefits. This paper presents an overview of the concepts and technologies which are under investigation, as well as several of the thermodynamic cycles which are being developed to determine their viability.

Cycle Efficiency

Through an alliance established in 1992 between Westinghouse Electric Corporation and Rolls-Royce plc, a program has been implemented that will bring the industrial Trent aero engine to the power generation marketplace. The Rolls-Royce Trent has been initially sized at 50 MW, with a development potential to higher power ratings, and is offered by Westinghouse as a complete power generation package, the “Trent EconoPac”. The Trent EconoPac sets a new performance standard in the industry with a nominal simple cycle efficiency of 42 percent. It is also ideal for combined cycle and cogeneration applications; a net combined cycle power of 63 MW at 52 percent efficiency can be developed. This paper describes the Trent industrial engine and EconoPac and reviews the development program with emphasis on unique features that benefit the power plant operator.

The York Resource Recovery Center was constructed and completed for the York County Solid Waste and Refuse Authority by Westinghouse Electric Corporation in October 1989. The design incorporated three Westinghouse O’Connor Rotary Combustors fitted with Deltak Boilers to provide a state-of-the art incineration system for the 400,000 residents of York County. Westinghouse incorporated many of their industrial products into the plant including their Westinghouse Data Processing Family Control System (WDPF) for control of the plant combustion and generation process.
