scholarly journals The Regenerative Gas Turbine in the Total-Energy Picture

Author(s):  
W. Stewart Roberts

An illustration is given of the considerations necessary in the application of a regenerative gas turbine to a total-energy system involving electric power, heating and air conditioning. Performance of the turbine is compared to a nonregenerative type. Requirements of a modern downtown office building based upon actual operating records for the year 1962 are matched against the turbine’s capabilities for supplying the system.

With the advent of high-speed, gas-turbine-powered naval vessels, new lighter weight concepts are required for service power. This paper demonstrates how a gas-turbine-driven ship service generator set can be used to supply multiple functions, including electrical power, thermal power, pneumatic power, and direct shaft-driven equipment. The thermal power can be used to perform heating, distillation plant operation, galley services, and air conditioning functions. The Canadian DDH 280 Class destroyer system is presented as an example of a total energy system. Heat recovery boiler and gas turbine characteristics are presented for 600-hp and 5000-hp marine gas turbines. A gas turbine total energy system is compared to a conventional diesel system without heat recovery.

The means of using total energy from a gas-turbine engine in various refrigeration systems are reviewed. Combinations of heating and cooling or electric power generation and cooling are discussed as well as combined centrifugal and absorption refrigeration systems. The economics of gas-burning turbine engines are investigated and shown to be attractive in these applications.
