Carrying out research work to determine the working conditions and determine the fuel consumption in a gas turbine installation. The descriptions of a gas turbine unit operating on gaseous fuel are presented: in normal and standby operating modes. The optimal operating mode of the gas turbine plant is combined: the production of heat and electricity. A study of the operating mode of a gas turbine unit at a constant pressure of 0.1 MPa and a temperature when air enters the compressor of a gas turbine unit with fuel combustion has been carried out. The features of the use of an energy carrier in a gas turbine unit during the year are highlighted and analyzed. The structure and current consumption of natural gas in a gas turbine unit for accounting for the consumption of energy carriers is described. As a result of the study, a substantiation of the concept of calculating the predictive function for accounting for the costs of non-renewable energy resources for a gas turbine plant, used natural gas, is proposed. This, in turn, ensures effective planning and increasing the economic efficiency of the enterprise. All this makes it possible to regulate the modes and costs of using fuel during the operation of a gas turbine unit. A study of the operating mode of the gas turbine unit at a constant pressure of 0.1 MPa and a temperature of 10 ° C was carried out, when the optimal operating mode of the gas turbine unit is the combined production of thermal and electrical energy. The choice of the predicting function by which it is better to forecast the use of the energy carrier for the current year has been proposed and substantiated. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the formulation of the substantiation of the conceptual principles for the construction of a mathematical model of the use and accounting of energy consumption based on the use of predictive functions and recommendations are provided on how to rationally use natural resources. The practical significance of the work lies in forecasting and calculating the volume of natural gas consumption (thousand m3) by the enterprise for the next year, and this, in turn, allows us to adjust the gas consumption for the future and make informed decisions on how it is possible to reduce fuel consumption or use it as efficiently as possible.

THE PURPOSE. The study is aimed at studying the effect of fuel gases of various component composition on the environmental performance of the GE 6FA gas turbine unit. Consider using hydrogen as primary sweat to minimize emissions and improve performance of the GE 6FA gas turbine. METHODS. To achieve this goal, the ASGRET (Automated system for gas-dynamic calculations of power turbomachines) software package was used. RESULTS. The article discusses promising directions for the utilization of CO2 using highly efficient technologies with further use or disposal. A mathematical model of a GE 6FA gas turbine unit, diagrams of changes in the main characteristics and the composition of emissions when operating on various types of fuel, including hydrogen, are presented. CONCLUSION. The studies carried out show that a change in the component composition of the gas affects the energy characteristics of the engine. The method for determining the quantitative composition of COx, NOx, SOx in the exhaust gases of a gas turbine plant is presented. The transition to the reserve fuel kerosene leads to an increase in the amount of emissions, which must be taken into account when designing systems for capturing harmful emissions with a dual-fuel fuel gas supply system. The use of hydrogen as a fuel for gas turbines allows to reduce not only the cost of fuel preparation, but also to minimize emissions and improve the performance of the gas turbine plant.

Energy Potential

Natural gas is transported through a network of main gas pipelines under high pressure, and the process of its consumption requires a decrease in pressure of gas laid mainly in throttling devices. It is beneficial to use part of the available energy potential of natural gas for electricity production by means of expander-generator technologies. However, the task of finding ways to increase the capacity and efficiency of gas turbine power units using the energy of excess pressure of natural gas does not lose its relevance. The study poses and solves the problem of developing a new thermal cycle diagram of a combined power unit to substitute throttling pressure regulators at gas distribution stations with an expander-compressor gas turbine unit. A distinctive feature of the unit is the replacement of the gas turbine drive of the air compressor with its drive from the turbo-expander by using the energy of excess pressure of natural gas. This results in significant increase in the absolute thermal efficiency and decrease in the specific fuel and energy costs. We developed analytical dependencies relating the operating parameters of the expander-compressor gas turbine unit and its output characteristics. Thus, it was possible to find an approach to calculating the unit, the approach being based on proven methods for thermal cycle calculation. The results of the performed calculations show that, in comparison with gas turbine units, the expander-compressor gas turbine unit has a significantly lower specific consumption of equivalent fuel and a lower negative impact on the environment

The paper proposes new circuit solutions for dual-fuel monar gas-steam plants (DMGSP), which provide an increase in the efficiency of electricity production in these plants by replacing the use of natural gas and increasing the share of generating "energy" steam by including an additional source of generation in the technological scheme steam - "preboiler", in which steam generation occurs as a result of the use of chemical energy of low-grade solid or liquid fuels - substitutes for natural gas of low or medium calorific value. DMGSPs are considered in two variants of operation of their utilization circuit: under conditions of heating and evaporation of feeding water, or only heating of this water. The results of calculations of the effectiveness of the implementation of these schemes on the basis of a monar gas turbine plant in comparison with the basic installation "VODOLEY" and a gas turbine plant of a simple scheme are presented.

The investigation of vibroacoustic characteristic of gas-pumping units of GTK-10-4 type. Power units improvement, as a rule, results in the decrease of units steel intensity and under conditions of the increase of airgas flows and facilities developed it causes a growth of vibroacoustic activity of plants elements. Taking into account this factor, it is necessary to develop measures to reduce noise and vibrations in sources of their origin at the design elaboration both at the stage of design, and at the stage of reengineering. With this purpose there are carried out the investigations of noise and vibration characteristics of a gaspumping unit of GTK-10-4 type equipped with a sta-tionary gas-turbine unit with a capacity of 10 MWt and a natural gas supercharger of 520-12-1 type manufactured by NZL. The noise and vibration sources of impeller ma-chines are studied, their vibroacoustic characteristics are analyzed, and the methods to reduce vibroacoustic activity of gas-pumping units of such a type operating at compressor stations of trunk pipelines are offered.

The study aims to calculate the technical and economic efficiency of adding hydrogen to natural gas to improve the energy characteristic of the fuel in gas-turbine plants during long-term gas field operations. Mathematical modelling techniques in the CAS CFDPT (computer-aided system for computational fluid dynamics of power turbomachinery) program were used to develop a mathematical model of the General Electric 6FA gas turbine engine. It was shown that a decrease in the calorific value of the fuel leads to an increase in fuel consumption by 11% and the amount of CO2, NO2 in the turbine exhaust gas. It was determined that, during the freezing season and peak power rating operations, the turbine power is limited by the fuel system capacity (its maximum value amounted to 5.04 kg/s). It was shown that energy characteristics can be improved by adding hydrogen to the feed natural gas. Energy efficiency was calculated at different fuel components (hydrogen and natural gas) ratios at variable-load operation in the range between 75 and 85 MW. Instant fuel gas flow amounted to 5.04 kg/s (with 4.5% hydrogen and 95.5% natural gas in the feed fuel) at 85 MW. Due to its high cost, the use of hydrogen is only advisable in peak power rating operations to reach the maximum capacity of the gas-turbine plant. The proposed method of adding 4.5% hydrogen to fuel gas allows the maximum fuel consumption to be maintained at a rate of 5.04 kg/s to reach the topping power of 85 MW. When using this method, there are no limitations on the maximum and peak capacity of the gas-turbine plant.

A computational study to assess the performance of different gas turbine power plant configurations is presented in this paper. The work includes the effect of humidity, ambient inlet air temperature and types of fuels on gas turbine plant configurations with and without fogger unit. Investigation also covers economic analysis and effect of fuels on emissions. GT frames of various sizes/ratings are being used in gas turbine power plants in Saudi Arabia. 20 MWe GE 5271RA, 40 MWe GE-6561B and 70 MWe GE-6101FA frames are selected for the present study. Fogger units with maximum mass flow rate of 2 kg/s are considered for the present analysis. Reverse Osmosis unit of capacity 4 kg/s supplies required water to the fogger units. GT PRO software has been used for carrying out the analysis including; net plant output and net efficiency, break even electricity price and break even fuel LHV price etc., for a given location of Saudi Arabia. The relative humidity and temperature have been varied from 30 to 45 % and from 80 to 100? F, respectively. Fuels considered in the study are natural gas, diesel and heavy bunker oil. Simulated gas turbine plant output from GT PRO has been validated against an existing gas turbine plant output. It has been observed that the simulated plant output is less than the existing gas turbine plant output by 5%. Results show that variation of humidity does not affect the gas turbine performance appreciably for all types of fuels. For a decrease of inlet air temperature by 10 ?F, net plant output and efficiency have been found to increase by 5 and 2 %, respectively for all fuels, for GT only situation. However, for GT with Fogger scenario, for a decrease of inlet air temperature by 10 ?F, net plant output and efficiency have been found to further increase by 3.2 and 1.2 %, respectively for all fuels. For all GT frames with fogger, the net plant output and efficiency are relatively higher as compared to GT only case for all fuels. More specifically, net plant output and efficiency for natural gas are higher as compare to other fuels for all GT scenarios. For a given 70 MWe frame with and without fogger, break even fuel price and electricity price have been found to vary from 2.2 to 2.5 USD/MMBTU and from 0.020 to 0.0239 USD/kWh respectively. It has been noticed that turbines operating on natural gas emit less carbon relatively as compared to other fuels.
