一方、一の構成要素を「備える」、「含む」、又は、「有する」という表現は、他の構成要素の存在を除外する排他的な表現ではない。
なお、同様の構成については同じ符号を付し説明を省略することがある。
図1は、本開示の一実施形態に係るガスタービンシステム1の概略図である。ガスタービンシステム1を構成するガスタービン3は、圧縮機7と、圧縮機7によって生成された圧縮空気と燃料との混合燃料を発生させる燃焼器8と、燃焼器8から排出される燃焼ガスによって駆動するタービン30とを備える。圧縮機7は起動装置4によって回転を開始するように構成される。燃焼器8に供給される燃料は、一例としてガス燃料であるが、液体燃料であってもよい。本例のタービン30は、燃焼器8から排出される燃焼ガスを動力源として、発電機6を駆動するように構成されている。タービン30から排出される排ガスは排気ダクト39を流れる。
なお、吸気加熱システム5は第1加熱ユニット10を備えなくてもよい。この場合であっても、制御装置80が相関パラメータ又は推定値に基づいて第2加熱ユニット20を制御することで、上記利点は得られる。
図2は、一実施形態に係る第2加熱ユニット20の加熱動作の区間を示す概略的なグラフである。グラフの横軸はガスタービン負荷を示す(図3も同様である)。同図で例示されるように、第2加熱ユニット20は、ガスタービン負荷が第1規定負荷(符号G1)以上となる高負荷区間において、加熱動作を実行する。より詳細には、ガスタービン負荷が高負荷区間であると判定された場合において、制御装置80が、加熱動作を実行するための制御信号を第2加熱ユニット20に送る。第1規定負荷(符号G1)はガスタービンシステム1の定格負荷よりも低い負荷であり、例えば定格負荷に対して30%以上かつ60%未満の任意のガスタービン負荷である。
図3は、一実施形態に係る第1加熱ユニット10の加熱動作の区間を示す概略的なグラフである。第1加熱ユニット10は、高負荷区間よりも低い負荷区間(即ち、ガスタービン負荷が第1規定負荷(符号G1)よりも低い負荷区間)において、返送流路15(図1参照)を流れる圧縮空気を熱源にして外部空気を加熱するように構成される。同グラフで示される第1加熱ユニット10の作動区間での加熱量は、一定であるとは限らない。例えば、排ガスの温度に応じて、第1加熱ユニット10の加熱量はフィードバック制御されてもよいし、ガスタービン負荷に関わらず低負荷区間の加熱量は一定であってもよい。第1加熱ユニット10のフィードバック制御では、第1流量調整バルブ12の開度が制御される。なお、他の実施形態に係る第1加熱ユニット10の加熱動作区間は、第2加熱ユニット20の加熱動作区間と重なってもよい。この場合、第1加熱ユニット10のフィードバック制御区間と、第2加熱ユニット20のフィードバック制御区間は重ならないことが好ましい。例えば、第1加熱ユニット10のフィードバック制御が実行されている間、第2加熱ユニット20の加熱量は一定に維持される制御が実行される。これにより、制御装置80による制御を簡易にすることができる。第1加熱ユニット10のフィードバック制御はP制御、PI制御、またはPID制御のいずれであってもよいが、本例ではPI制御が採用される。
図4は、本開示の一実施形態に係る第2加熱ユニット20を示す概略図である。同図で例示される第2加熱ユニット20の熱源は、タービン30(図1参照)から排出される排ガスである。排ガスの有する熱源は、ガスタービンシステム1の構成要素である排熱回収ボイラ19によって回収されて、第2加熱ユニット20の熱源として利用される。排熱回収ボイラ19は、排気ダクト39から供給される排ガスを熱源として、ボイラ給水から加熱媒体を生成するように構成される。加熱媒体は、温水または蒸気(過熱蒸気)である。例えば、排熱回収ボイラ19に流入して比較的間もない高温の排ガスがボイラ給水を加熱することで過熱蒸気が生成される。この過熱蒸気は、例えば蒸気タービンといったガスタービンシステム1を構成する他の機器に供給されてもよい。他方で、排熱回収ボイラ19において出口近傍を流れる低温の排ガスがボイラ給水を加熱することで、温水が生成される(この温水が排熱回収ボイラ19内をさらに流れて、高温の排ガスとの熱交換により過熱蒸気に変化してもよい。)。
第2加熱ユニット20が配管部25を含む構成によれば、配管部25を流れる加熱媒体と吸気流路9を流れる外部空気との熱交換によって、第2加熱ユニット20は外部空気を加熱できる。
制御装置80が第2流量調整バルブ22を制御する構成によれば、制御装置80がガスタービン3のタービン入口温度と相関を有する相関パラメータ(又はタービン入口温度の推定値)に基づいて、第2加熱ユニット20の第2流量調整バルブ22の開度を制御する。これにより、第2加熱ユニット20は、外部空気に対する加熱量を制御することができる。
加熱媒体流路29が温水を加熱媒体として吸気流路9に導く構成によれば、ボイラ給水の加熱によって生じる蒸気よりも排熱される傾向の高い温水が加熱媒体として採用されることで、ガスタービンシステム1の運転効率を向上できる。
図5、図6を参照し、第1実施形態に係る制御装置80A(80)を説明する。制御装置80Aは、第1加熱ユニット10と第2加熱ユニット20をそれぞれ制御する。制御装置80Aによる第2加熱ユニット20の制御には、タービン入口温度と相関を有する相関パラメータに基づいたフィードバック制御が含まれる。フィードバック制御は、図2で示される高負荷区間(より詳細には第1規定負荷(符号G1)以上かつ上限規定負荷以下の負荷区間)において実行される。相関パラメータは一例として、ガスタービン3のタービン出口側における排気温度(以下、単に排気温度という場合がある)と、ガスタービン3のタービン膨張比と相関を有する第1パラメータとを含む。
図9は第1実施形態に係る吸気加熱システム5を制御するための吸気加熱システム制御処理を示すフローチャートであり、吸気加熱システム5の運転方法の一例を示す。当該制御処理は一例として制御装置80A(80)によって実行される。例えば制御装置80A(80)は、コンピュータによって構成されており、プロセッサ、メモリ、及び外部通信インタフェースを備える。プロセッサは、CPU、GPU、MPU、DSP、又はこれらの組み合わせなどである。他の実施形態に係るプロセッサは、PLD、ASIC、FPGA、またはMCU等の集積回路により実現されてもよい。メモリは、各種データを一時的または非一時的に記憶するように構成され、例えば、RAM、ROM、またはフラッシュメモリの少なくとも1つによって実現される。メモリにロードされたプログラムの命令にしたがって、制御装置80A(80)のプロセッサ(以下、制御装置80のプロセッサを単に「プロセッサ」という場合がある)は、吸気加熱システム制御処理を実行する。当該制御処理の実行中、プロセッサは、第1流量調整バルブ12と第2流量調整バルブ22に制御信号を送信する。以下の説明では、ステップを「S」と略記する場合がある。
図11を参照し、第2実施形態に係る制御装置80B(80)を説明する。制御装置80Bは、第1加熱ユニット10と第2加熱ユニット20をそれぞれ制御する。制御装置80Bによる第2加熱ユニット20の制御には、ガスタービン3のタービン入口温度度の推定値に基づいたフィードバック制御が含まれる。当該フィードバック制御は、高負荷区間(図2参照)で実行されるのであればどの区間で実行されてもよいし、あるいは、第1実施形態と同様の負荷区間に限定されてもよい。
図12は第2実施形態に係る吸気加熱システム5を制御するための吸気加熱システム制御処理を示すフローチャートであり、吸気加熱システム5の運転方法の一例を示す。当該制御処理は一例として制御装置80Bによって実行される。図12では、図9と同じステップに、同じステップ番号が付与されている。第2実施形態における吸気加熱ユニット制御処理は、第1実施形態として説明したS11、S13、S19(図11参照)に代えて、それぞれ、S31、S33、S19Aを含む。また、第2実施形態に吸気加熱システム制御処理は、第1実施形態として説明したS25~S29(図11参照)に代えて、S29Aを含む。以下の説明では、第1実施形態と重複するステップの説明の一部または全部を省略する。
図13は、本開示の一実施形態に係るガスタービン3の詳細を示す概略図である。同図のガスタービン3は2軸式ガスタービンである。より詳細には、ガスタービン3は、圧縮機7と、圧縮機7の回転軸に連結される第1軸31を有する高圧タービン33と、第1軸31とは異なる第2軸32を有する低圧タービン34とを含む。高圧タービン33は圧縮機7と一体的に回転する。また、低圧タービン34は、高圧タービン33から排ガスが供給されるように構成されており、この排ガスを動力源として回転するように構成される。低圧タービン34から排出される排ガスは排気ダクト39へ流れる。
