Conceptual design of a heat pipe solar receiver gas turbine plant. Final report

Increasing the energy efficiency of a gas turbine plant can be achieved by exhaust gas heat recovery in a recovery boiler. Establishing some correlations between the parameters of the boiler and of the turbine is done usually based on mathematical models. In this paper it is determined from experimental point of view, the effectiveness of a heat recovery boiler, which operates together with a gas turbine power plant. Starting from the scheme for framing the measurement devices, we have developed a measurement procedure of the experimental data. For experimental data processing is applied the effectiveness - number of transfer unit method. Based on these experimental data we establish correlations between the recovery boiler effectiveness and the gas turbine plant characteristics. The method can be adapted depending on the type of flow in the recovery boiler.

The design of a modern Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) is described for a test steam injected gas turbine (STIG) unit. The LQR controller is obtained by using the fuel flow rate and the injected steam flow rate as the output parameters. To meet the goal of the shaft speed control, a classical Proportional Differential (PD) controller is compared to the LQR controller design. The control performance of the dynamic response of the STIG plant in the case of rejection of load is evaluated. The results of the computer simulation show a remarkable improvement on the dynamic performance of the STIG unit.

The article presents the results obtained during the study of the characteristics of hybrid solar micro-gas turbine units with an integrated parabolocylindrical solar collector. The efficiency of a hybrid solar gas turbine plant depends both on the efficiency of the solar collector and the location of its integration, and on the efficiency of the gas turbine engine. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in studying hybrid solar gas turbine installations based on a parabolocylindrical focusing solar collector in combination with micro-gas turbine engines of various configurations to determine the most suitable match. (Materials and methods) The article considers four basic schemes of gas turbine engines running on organic fuel, their parameters and optimization results. The article presents the main climatic parameters for the study of the focusing solar collector, as well as the parameters of the collector itself and the main dependencies that determine its efficiency and losses. The place of integration of the focusing solar collector into the gas turbine plant was described and justified. (Results and discussion) Hybrid solar micro-gas turbine installations based on micro-gas turbine engines of a simple cycle, a simple cycle with heat recovery, a simple cycle with a turbocharger utilizer, a simple cycle with a turbocharger utilizer and heat recovery for tropical climate conditions were studied on the example of Abu Dhabi. (Conclusions) The most suitable configuration of micro-gas turbine engines for integrating a focusing solar collector is a combination of a simple cycle with a turbocharger utilizer and regeneration. The combination of micro-gas turbine engines of a simple cycle with a turbocharger heat recovery and heat recovery with an integrated focusing solar collector can relatively increase the average annual efficiency of fuel consumption of such installations in a tropical climate by 10-35 percent or more, while maintaining cogeneration capabilities.
