質型ガスタービンの運転方法に関する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention uses a low-calorie mixed gas in which both the methanol reformed gas as fuel and the air for its combustion contain a large amount of water vapor. The present invention relates to a method of operating a highly energy-efficient methanol reforming gas turbine that can perform combustion.

(たとえば、特開昭61−149532号公報)。
Conventionally, raw materials methanol and water are preheated and gasified using waste heat from a gas turbine, and reformed gas is produced by heating them to a predetermined temperature and supplying them to a reforming reactor for reaction. A method of operating a methanol reforming gas turbine in which the reformed gas is obtained and the reformed gas is used as turbine fuel is known (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 149532/1983).

ことが困難であり、このような改質ガスを燃料に
使用する限り、上記タービンを良好、かつ安定し
て運転することができない。 Normally, methanol reformed gas is a low-calorie gas that contains a large amount of water vapor, and when the combustion air contains a large amount of water vapor, it is difficult to stably burn the reformed gas. As long as it is used as fuel, the turbine cannot be operated satisfactorily and stably.

び管理上も好ましいことではない。 However, in the operation of the gas turbine that utilizes waste heat efficiently, unless it is possible to use not only the methanol reformed gas but also the combustion air that contains water vapor, it will have no effect on improving thermal efficiency and output. This is not desirable in terms of equipment costs and management.

重要であると言える。 Therefore, it is possible to operate the gas turbine stably by using both the methanol reformed gas and the combustion air without being affected by the amount of water vapor contained in the combustion air. This can be said to be extremely important for the operation of methanol reforming turbines.

The object of the present invention is to supply a gas containing water vapor as the methanol reformed gas and to combust the methanol reformed gas and combustion air when the fuel is supplied to the combustor of a gas turbine and combusted. At least 80% by volume of the combustion air is supplied with water vapor-containing air after the secondary combustion area of the combustor, and up to 20% by volume of the combustion air is supplied with air that does not substantially contain water vapor in the primary combustion area. This can be achieved by supplying it to a gas and burning it.
