Marine Applications

This paper presents a comparative assessment of different gas turbine open ‘dry’ cycle configurations as potential prime movers for marine commercial applications. The analyses will focus on optimising a three-spool gas turbine —featuring intercooling, reheating, and/or recuperation— for maximum thermal efficiency at design point, under the premise that targeted marine applications spend most of the time at cruising, hence part-load performance of the power plant will not play a huge role. The most promising configuration will be identified, and a whole methodology of systematic design-space exploration will be established, as the first necessary steps in the context of a much broader project, with the final aim of applying the same methodology to a wider range of candidate gas-turbine based power plants and performing multi-disciplinary optimisation of these candidates to fully assess the capabilities of the gas turbines to enter the market of the large cargo ships.

Marine Applications

Clearly, the advanced gas turbine has center stage in the world for converting fuel to work. The power and efficiency delivered by the advanced gas turbine have made it the predominant prime mover in the air, and increasingly so on land and sea. This paper explores the full potential offered for marine applications by the advanced gas turbine, a potential that is fully enhanced by use of available engineering options that are external to the gas generator. The enhancement options are: 1) intercooling 2) thermal recuperation 3) steam injection 4) reheat 5) closed loop cooling 6) catalytic partial oxidation 7) water recovary. Of the options studied reheat involves a unique approach. Reheat is postulated to be accomplished with a new simplified technique. An autoignitable hydrogen-rich fuel is injected into the air path through the cooling passages and from the trailing edge of blades and vanes of the law pressure turbine, reheating the air prior to entry into the free power turbine.
