Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the modification of a
  • Turbocompressors according to the preamble of claim 1. It further relates to a modified according to this method turbo compressor, as well as uses of the present invention modified turbo compressor.
  • the invention characterized in the claims invention has for its object to provide a method of the type mentioned above, that even a modified compressor, which has an increased nominal mass flow, can be approached easily.
  • the capacity for blowing off compressed or partially compressed fluid is increased.
  • the capacity is increased, for example, in the same ratio, as increased by the modification of the compressor blades, the intake volume flow.
  • the increase in the Abblasekapaztician by the critical flow area is increased at least one of the compressor connected to the blow-off line.
  • the narrowest cross-section of the flow line must be increased. This is often in the obturator, which serves to close and release the Abblase horr.
  • the invention can therefore be realized very simply by replacing the obturator, also called blow-off valve, by a shut-off device with an enlarged free cross-section.
  • Blow-off lines arranged. This can be done by existing, sealed by flanged lid openings of the compressor housing opened and additional Abblase effeten be connected to the resulting housing openings. Alternatively, additional new housing openings can be incorporated into the compressor housing.
  • the additional blow-off lines can be arranged on the one hand at a pressure stage of the compressor, on which there is already an existing blow-off line. It then increases the Abblasekapaztician at the corresponding pressure level of the compressor. But it is also quite possible to arrange the additional blow-off at a position at which no Abblasetechnisch is connected before the modification. It is then created at a pressure additional Abblase réellekeit.
  • Blow-off lines are or are generally arranged on the compressor in such a way that partially compressed fluid is blown off.
  • the blow-off line branches off between two compressor stages. This ensures that, as mentioned in the introduction, when the blow-off line is open, the mass flow in the front compressor stages is greater than in the rear compressor stages.
  • a blow-off conduit may be disposed downstream of the compressor and upstream of the consumer.
  • a blow-off line of a compressor of a gas turbine group is arranged downstream of the compressor and upstream of a first combustion chamber of the gas turbine group.
  • the invention is suitable for conversion and performance of a turbo compressor, which is for example the compressor of a gas turbine group.
  • the gas turbine group in turn is in one Embodiment of the invention Component of a power plant, for example a combined plant.
  • FIGURE shows a gas turbine group before and after an inventive modification of the compressor.
  • the drawing and the embodiment are to be understood as purely exemplary; Elements not necessary for understanding the invention have been omitted.
  • Figure 1a shows a gas turbine group, comprising a compressor 1, a combustion chamber 2, and a turbine 3, as is well known to those skilled in the art.
  • the compressor 1 sucks in an intake volume flow or a nominal mass flow mi. This air mass flow is compressed in the compressor 1.
  • a fuel mass flow is burned in the combustion chamber 2, and the resulting hot flue gas is expanded to perform work in the turbine 3.
  • blow-off lines 11 and 12 are arranged with shut-off elements 21 and 22. As stated in the introduction, these blow-off pipes serve to blow off partially compressed air from the compressor during start-up of the compressor at speeds well below the rated speed.
  • the gas turbine group is shown according to an inventive modification of the compressor 1.
  • equipping with improved compressor blades increases the intake volumetric flow of the compressor 1, and accordingly promotes the compressor a nominal mass flow ⁇ i2, which is greater than the nominal mass flow mi before the conversion.
  • the increase in the nominal mass flow causes the air mass flow blown off during start-up to be proportionate less than before conversion to new blades. This potentially results in the occurrence of stalling in the front compressor stages and / or clogging of the rear compressor stages despite compressor air blow-off.
  • the blow-off capacities of the compressor have now been increased.
  • the blow-off valve 21 of the blow-off line 11 is replaced by a blow-off valve 21a with an enlarged passage cross-section.
  • a new blow-off line 13 has been rearranged with a blow-off valve 23.
  • the blow-off line 13 can branch off at a pressure stage of the compressor, on which another blow-off line is already arranged, as shown in the figure.
  • the blow-off line 13 may, however, also be arranged at a location of the compressor at which no blow-off line was previously arranged.
  • the blow-off line 13 on the one hand connect to an already existing, but previously closed by a flange cover opening of the housing of the compressor 1; If appropriate, however, a new opening may also have been incorporated into the housing, to which the new discharge line 13 then adjoins.
  • blow-off line 14 connects with a blow-off valve 24.
  • Blow-off line 21 shut-off valve, blow-off valve
