Industry Challenge: The Critical Need for Precise Combustion Control However, achieving optimal gas turbine combustion efficiency remains a significant challenge for industrial operators, particularly under fluctuating load conditions and variable fuel compositions. A proven method for evaluating and improving gas ...
OWNER Queen's University LOCATION Kingston, Ontario, Canada PRODUCT Taurus (7.5 MWe) Gas Turbine CUSTOMER VALUE Reduced Emissions Queen's University in Ontario's central heating plant uses two 7.5 MW Taurus 70 generator sets and heat recovery steam generators which connect to the local utility. In the event of a power outage the combined heat and power system ...
To remedy the situation, NCMPA1 decided to construct an additional power generation facility in Monroe using two highly efficient 12 MW Titan 130 gas turbines. The Monroe Plant began operation in early 2010, and is operating remotely on short notice during periods of high demand and high market prices. The city estimates that ...
In 2014, Powerphase installed a Turbophase system consisting of two Turbophase modules, at a cogeneration plant in the U.S. The Morris Cogen plant is a 177 MW combined-cycle gas facility located within the Equistar Chemicals petrochemical plant in Morris, IL. The Morris plant has a single pressure steam turbine (ST) (625 psig/750°F) rated at 57 MW, and three GE MS6001B, PG6561 gas turbines ...
In this study the use of Reverse Brayton cycle to boost up the power of gas turbine power plants operating in hot humid ambiance is analysed by the energy and exergy methods. The gas turbine inlet temperature is reduced by mixing the chilled air from Brayton refrigeration cycle and the main intake air stream ...
The present study was done to investigate the performance differences in terms of thermal efficiency and specific power output of: combined cycle power plants with integration of low temperature regenerative heat, standard gas turbines operated in wet cycle mode, turbo expanders and steam turbines (here: alternatives); combined ...
