Abstract
This paper proposes the application of a modular approach to off-design prediction of multi- and single-shaft gas turbines. The performance effects of some variations of plant configurations are easy to predict. A solution adopted for module matching is shown, and the instability phenomena in some elementary units (i.e. stalling and surge in the compressor) are studied. The partial load behavior study of aeroderivative gas turbines is presented and performance comparisons are made with a particular heavy-duty advanced application. An analysis example shows some reheat effects in combined power plant applications. This work enabled the authors to make interesting observations on control techniques and gas-turbine configurations for advanced, combined power-plants. It also shows the wide possibilities of code applications.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
