  4. Main points • Basically we apply the co-generation concept in order to produce heat energy (steam) from one side and electrical energy from the other. • The electrical energy is also such an important argument where a reliable network is necessary (chemical, textile, 3rd world,…) • Network voltage failure • Other particular situations • Advantages • Better efficiency in the energy production. • Better quality of the energy (self made = more reliability, flexibility…)

  5. Main components • The system is basically composed of : • Turbo generator •  Produce electric energy and (or) thermal energy • Medium voltage (MV) station (accessory) •  Ensures the electrical power connection between the turbo generator, the plant and the network • Boiler (accessory)  Convert the thermal energy in steam • Diesel engine generator (accessory) •  Produce electric energy • Gas Compressor (accessory  Ener project) •  Increase and stabilize the gas pressure when it drops

  8. Main components • The gas turbine is composed of 3 main parts : • The compressor •  Increases the pressure of incoming comburant air. • The combustion chamber •  The mixture fuel /air is burned and gas temperature increased. • The power turbine • Which converts the thermal and kinetic energy of the burned gases to mechanical energy, avalaible on the gas turbine rotor shaft.

  12. The combustion chamber The combustion chamber shape is annular. There the mixture fuel/air is burned at constant pressure. Because of the high combustiontemperature(~2000 °C), the gas temperature is reduced with air coming from the compressor (dilution air) to obtain an admissible temperature of the metallic parts (turbine blades and combustion chamber)  800-1200 °C Dilution air holes Combustion chamber Fuel inlet

  14. Power turbine Stage = rotor + stator Through the stages of the power turbine the gas accelerates and the pressure decreases. In the turbine, the potential energy of the gas is transformed to mechanical energy. The total aerodynamic force acting on the rotor blades is transferred to the rotor shaft, which rotates at the speed  . rotor stator  1 3 2 u P Pressure evolution

  15. Power turbine Turbine blades Through the stages of the power turbine the gas is accelerated and energy trasferred to the rotor blades, which rotate the shaft.

The gearbox is therefore located between the turbine and the generator. It has an epicyclic star-gear design. The gearbox is also equipped with two starter motors (used for turbine start) and is used to drive the mechanic oil pump (for the main oil circuit). These are the auxiliary functions of the gearbox. Twospeed pick-ups (1) (for speed control and protection use) are also mounted on the gearbox. 1
