Asme Paper

The paper will deal with new developments on basis of the ideas, laid down in ASME paper 90-GT-180, presented at the Brussels Conference. In this former paper a combination of incinerators and cogen systems was described. New development show, that some of these ideas can also be used in cogen plants, in which all steam is raised and superheated in a waste heat boiler behind a high grade fuel fired gas turbine (natural gas or equivalent). This paper will deal give a description of the new system. A comparison will be made with conventional cogen systems, comprising of a gas turbine, a dual pressure non-fired waste heat boiler and a condensing steam turbine. On basis of a particular case study both the technical and financial performances will be compared with each other.

Greater use is being made of dynamic simulation of energy systems as a design tool for selecting control strategies and establishing operating procedures. This paper discusses the dynamic modeling of a gas-fired combined-cycle power plant with a gas turbine, a steam turbine, and an alternator — all rotating on a common shaft. A waste-heat boiler produces steam at two pressures using heat from the gas turbine flue gas. The transient behavior of the system predicted by the model for various upset situations appears physically reasonable and satisfactory for the operating constraints.

The paper describes the history of design, development and 15 years’ sea-going experience of the MASHPROEKT combined cycle plants. Four R060 type ships powered by eight combined cycle plants each rated at. 25.000 h.p. and three naval ships with six cruise combined cycle plants each rated at. 10, 000 h.p. are in service now. Using of combined cycle permitted to increase their thermal efficiency by 20–30 per cent. To increase efficiency at a speed of 15…18 knots, a special mode of operation is used: the gas turbine and waste heat boiler operate at one board and steam generated by this waste heat boiler is used for a steam turbine of other board. Total operation life of all marine gas turbine units exceeds 330,000 hours.

Heating And Cooling

The influence of fuel cost on the operation is investigated for a gas turbine-waste heat boiler cogeneration plant by an optimal operational planning method. A planning method is first presented by which the operational policy of each piece of constituent equipment is determined so as to minimize the operational cost. Then, a case study is performed for a cogeneration plant used for district heating and cooling. Through the study, it is made clear how the optimal operational policy and the economic or energy conservative properties are influenced by the costs of purchased electric power and natural gas. It is also shown that the optimal operational policy is superior in economy as compared with other conventional ones.

In this paper a new process is described to improve the efficiency of power generation in waste incineration plants. It is proposed to superheat the steam in a gas turbine/waste heat boiler combination rather than in the incinerator boiler. Although this is not discussed in this paper the same process may be applied in nuclear power stations where the superheating of steam is also a problem. A global risk-analysis of the addition of equipment is made in this paper. On basis of a case-study the financial advantages are demonstrated.

The article provides an overview of modern high-performance combined-cycle plants and gas turbine plants with waste heat boilers. The forecast for the introduction of gas turbine equipment at TPPs in the world and in Russia is presented. The classification of gas turbines according to the degree of energy efficiency and operational characteristics is given. Waste heat boilers are characterized in terms of design and associated performance and efficiency. To achieve high operating parameters of gas turbine and boiler equipment, it is necessary to use, among other things, modern water treatment equipment. The article discusses modern effective technologies, the leading place among which is occupied by membrane, and especially baromembrane methods of preparing feed water-waste heat boilers. At the same time, the ion exchange technology remains one of the most demanded at TPPs in the Russian Federation.

Prime Movers

Traditionally commercial marine propulsion needs have been met with direct drive reciprocating prime movers. In order to increase efficiency, simplify installation and maintenance accessibility, and increase cargo / passenger capacity; indirect electric drive gas and steam turbine combined cycle prime movers are being introduced to marine propulsion systems. One such application is the Royal Caribbean Cruise Line (RCCL) Millennium Class ship. This commercial vessel has two aero-derivative gas turbine generator sets with a single waste heat recovery steam turbine generator set. Each is controlled by independent microprocessor based digital control systems. This paper addresses only the gas turbine control system architecture and the unique safety and dynamic features that are integrated into the control system for this application.

Coal Conversion

A 200 kWth test plant was constructed by BTU Cottbus for the purpose of developing a special variant of coal conversion based on 2nd generation PFBC. This concept, primarily to be used for generating power from lignite, employs a circulating type fluidized bed and is characterized by a design that combines the two air-blown steps “partial gasification” and “residual char combustion” in a single component. The subject of this paper is to develop an overall power plant concept based on this process, and to perform the associated thermodynamic calculations. In addition to the base concept with one large heavy-duty Siemens gas turbine V94.3A fired with Lausitz dried lignite (19% H2O), further versions with variation of Siemens gas turbine model (V94.3A and V64.3A), the water content of the fuel fired (raw lignite with more than 52% H2O or dried lignite) as well as the method of drying the coal were investigated. Common assumptions for all versions were ISO conditions for the ambient air and a condenser pressure of 0.05 bar. As expected, the calculations yielded very attractive net efficiencies of almost 50% (LHV based) for a variant with the small V64.3A gas turbine and up to more than 55% for the large plants with the V94.3A gas turbine. It was further demonstrated that thermodynamic integration of an advanced, innovative coal drying process (e.g. fluidized-bed drying with waste heat utilization) causes an additional gain in net efficiency of about three percentage points compared with the variant of firing lignite that was first dried externally. In addition to the basic function of the coal conversion system, it was necessary to also assume preconditions such as complete carbon conversion, reliable hot gas cleaning facilities and fuel gas properties that are acceptable for combustion in the gas turbine.
