Abstract

Et system for tilvirkning av kondensert og underkjølt naturgass ved hjelp av en kjølesammenstilling som bruker et enkeltfaset gassholdig kjølemiddel omfatter minst to ekspandere; en kompressorsammenstilling; en varmevekslersammenstilling for varmeabsorpsjon fra naturgass; og en varmeavstøtende sammenstilling, i hvilket ekspanderne er anordnet i ekspandersløyfer og kjølemiddelet til den respektive ekspanderen er forsynt i en komprimert strømning ved hjelp av kompressorsammenstillingen som har kompressorer eller kompressortrinn, noe som muliggjør avpasset innløps- og utløpstrykk for den respektive ekspanderen. I samsvar med det foreliggende er ekspanderne og kompressorene eller deres trinn satt sammen i to mekanisk koplede kompressor- og ekspanderpakker (200, 300), av hvilke en er drevet av en gassturbin (201) og den andre er drevet av en dampturbin (301), idet dampen primært er frembrakt av avgasser fra gassturbinen i en spillvarmegjenvinningsenhet (202), og ekspanderne og kompressorene eller deres trinn er fordelte mellom de to kompressor- og ekspanderpakkene for å optimere damputnyttelsen og for å balansere kraften som er frembrakt av gassturbinen og dampturbinen.A system for producing condensed and undercooled natural gas by means of a cooling assembly using a single-phase gaseous refrigerant comprises at least two expanders; a compressor assembly; a heat exchanger assembly for heat absorption from natural gas; and a heat-repellent assembly, in which the expanses are arranged in expander loops and the coolant of the respective expander is provided in a compressed flow by means of the compressor assembly having compressors or compressor stages, which allows for the appropriate inlet and outlet pressures for the respective expander. According to the present invention, the expanders and compressors or their stages are assembled into two mechanically coupled compressor and expander packages (200, 300), one of which is powered by a gas turbine (201) and the other is driven by a steam turbine (301) , the steam being primarily generated by exhaust gas from the gas turbine in a waste heat recovery unit (202), and the expanders and compressors or their stages are distributed between the two compressor and expander packages to optimize steam utilization and to balance the power generated by the gas turbine and steam turbine.
