Definitions

  • the present invention relates to gas turbines. More specifically, the present invention relates to a system for capturing heat rejected from the portion of the compressor discharge air used to cool the turbine section of the gas turbine by transferring the heat to a fluid to be injected into the combustion section, such as gaseous fuel, without the use of an intermediate heat transfer fluid.
  • a gas turbine is comprised of three main components: a compressor section in which air is compressed, a combustion section in which the compressed air is heated by burning fuel and a turbine section in which the hot compressed gas from the combustion section is expanded.
  • this cooling is achieved by flowing relatively cool air over or within the turbine components. Since such cooling air must be pressurized to be effective, it is common practice to bleed a portion of the air discharged from the compressor section and divert it to the turbine components for cooling purposes. Although the cooling air eventually mixes with the hot gas expanding in the turbine, since it bypasses the combustion process much of the work expended in compressing the cooling air is not recovered in the expansion process. Consequently, to maximize the power output and efficiency of the gas turbine, it is desirable to minimize the quantity of cooling air used.
  • the air bled from the compressor is relatively hot -- i.e., 315-485°C (600-900°F) depending on the compression ratio. Consequently, the air bled from the compressor must often be cooled to ensure that its temperature is low enough to adequately cool the turbine components.
  • the quantity of air bled from the compressor for cooling purposes can be reduced by cooling the air prior to directing it to the turbine components, thereby increasing its capacity to absorb heat.
  • an air-to-air cooler was often used to cool the cooling air.
  • Another approach involves the use of dual shell and tube heat exchangers and an intermediate heat transfer fluid.
  • air bled from the compressor is cooled by transferring heat from the compressed air to an intermediate fluid, such as water, in a first heat exchanger.
  • the heat absorbed by the heat transfer fluid is then transferred to, for example, gaseous fuel in a second heat exchanger.
  • an intermediate fluid such as water
  • a gas turbine system having (i) a compressor section for producing compressed air, (ii) a combustion section for producing heated compressed gas by the combustion of a fuel in a first portion of the compressed air, (iii) a turbine section for expanding the heated compressed gas, and (iv) a heat exchanger having a core having means for cooling a second portion of the compressed air by (i) transferring heat from the compressed air to the core by convection,
  • the heat exchanger is a printed circuit type heat exchanger.
  • Figure 1 is a longitudinal cross-section, partially schematic, through a gas turbine system utilizing the compressed air cooling scheme of the current invention.

  • FIG. 1 a longitudinal cross-section of a gas turbine system 1.
  • the gas turbine is comprised of three main components: a compressor section 2, a combustion section 3, and a turbine section 4.
  • a rotor 5 is centrally disposed in the gas turbine and extends through the three sections.
  • the compressor section 2 is comprised of a cylinder 6 that encloses altemating rows of stationary vanes 7 and rotating blades 8.
  • the stationary vanes 7 are affixed to the cylinder 6 and the rotating blades 8 are affixed to the rotor 5.
  • the combustion section 3 is comprised of a cylinder 9 which forms a chamber in which are disposed a plurality of combustors 10 and ducts 11 that connect the combustors to the turbine section 4.
  • a fuel supply pipe 23 is connected to a fuel manifold 24 that distributes fuel to a nozzle 25 in each combustor 10.
  • a portion of the rotor 5 extends through the combustion section 3 and is enclosed therein by a housing 12. Cooling air return pipes 13 and 14, discussed further below, penetrate the cylinder 9, extend through the chamber and terminate at a manifold 15 that surrounds a portion of the housing 12.
  • the turbine section 4 is comprised of an outer cylinder 16 that encloses an inner cylinder 17.
  • the inner cylinder 17 encloses alternating rows of stationary vanes 18 and rotating blades 19.
  • the stationary vanes 18 are affixed to the inner cylinder 17 and the rotating blades 19 are affixed to a plurality of rotating disks 20 that form the turbine section of the rotor 5.
  • the compressor inducts ambient air
  • the rotating blades 19 and disks 20 in the turbine section are exposed to the hot gas 27 from the combustors 10, which may be in excess of 1300°C (2370°F) , and are subjected to high stresses as a result of the centrifugal force imposed on them by their rotation. Since the ability of the materials that form the blades and disks to withstand stress decreases with increasing temperature, it is vital to provide adequate cooling to maintain the temperature of these components within allowable levels. In the preferred embodiment, this cooling is accomplished by diverting a portion 29 of the compressed air 22 from the chamber formed by the cylinder 9 to the turbine section of the rotor 5. This diversion is accomplished by bleeding air through an external bleed pipe 30 emanating from the cylinder 9.
  • the cooled cooling air 31 After being cooled, as explained below, the cooled cooling air 31 re-enters the gas turbine through return pipes 13 and 14.
  • the return pipes direct the air to the manifold 15 after which the cooling air penetrates the housing 12 through holes 50 and enters an annular gap 52 formed between the housing 12 and the rotor 5.
  • the cooling air 31 then enter the rotor 5 through holes 51 whereupon it flows through a plurality of intricate cooling passages (not shown) in the rotating disks and blades to achieve the desired cooling.
  • cooling air 29 bypasses the combustors 10. Even though this air ' eventually mixes with the hot gas expanding in the turbine section 4, the work recovered from the expansion of the compressed cooling air is much less than that recovered from the expansion of the compressed air heated in the combustors. In fact, as a result of losses due to pressure drop and mechanical efficiency, the work recovered from the cooling air is less than that required to compress the air in the compressor. Hence, the greater the quantity of cooling air used the less the net power output of the gas turbine.
  • the quantity of cooling air 29 bled from the compressor discharge 22 is reduced by cooling the air, thereby increasing its capacity to absorb heat from and cool the turbine components, without losing the rejected heat from the cycle.
  • This is accomplished by directing the hot cooling air 29 to a heat exchanger 53, which according to the current invention is preferably of the printed circuit heat exchanger type, as discussed more fully below.
  • the fuel 56 from a fuel source is also directed to the heat exchanger 53 via fuel supply piping 58.
  • the heated fuel 26 is returned to the gas turbine via piping 23.
  • the cooling air 29 is cooled by rejecting heat to the fuel 56, thereby heating the fuel. Since the heated fuel 26 is injected into and burned in the combustors 10, the heat it has absorbed from the cooling air 29 is returned to the cycle and reduces the quantity of fuel that must be burned to obtain the desired temperature of the gas 27 entering the turbine. Consequently, unlike traditional approaches to cooling the cooling air, the current invention does not result in significantly degrading the thermal efficiency of the gas turbine.

  • Manifold 64 is connected to the fuel supply piping 58. It receives the fuel 56 supplied to the heat exchanger 53 and directs the fuel to the core 54.

  • the compressed air 29 flows through the passages 42 it transfers heat, primarily by convection -- that is, by heat transfer from a fluid to a solid --, to the adjacent portions of the core 54 that surround each of the passages 42. This heat is then transferred by conduction -- that is, by heat transfer through a solid -- to the adjacent portions of the core 54 that surround each of the passages 42. The heat is then transferred, primarily by convection, to the fuel 56 flowing through the passages 42. In this manner, heat is transferred from the compressed air 29 to the fuel 56 directly -- that is, without the use of an intermediate heat transfer fluid.
  • PCHE type heat exchanger eliminates the concern that an intermediate heat transfer fluid will enter the compressed air or fuel. Moreover, PCHE type heat exchangers are compact and have low pressure drops.

  • the sentinel passages 43 may contain air at ambient pressure. This embodiment is shown in Figure 5.

Abstract

Turbine à gaz qui possède un échangeur de chaleur (53) dans lequel la chaleur est prélevée dans de l'air comprimé et évacuée (30) de la section de compresseur qui est utilisée pour refroidir la partie turbine. Ledit échangeur de chaleur transfère de la chaleur de l'air de refroidissement à un fluide destiné à être réinjecté dans la section de combustion de la turbine à gaz, tel que du combustible, sans recours à un fluide de transfert de chaleur intermédiaire. La chaleur prélevée de l'air de refroidissement est renvoyée dans le cycle lorsque le fluide est introduit dans la chambre de combustion de la turbine à gaz. Ledit échangeur de chaleur est du type circuit imprimé et possède une partie centrale constituée par un certain nombre de plaques liées par diffusion le long de leurs surfaces planes. Des canaux ménagés dans la surface des plaques avant le collage forment des passages dans lesquels circulent l'air de refroidissement et le fluide d'injection.
