Large Heavy-Duty Gas Turbines for Base-Load Power Generation and Heat Cogeneration
TLDR
In this paper, the basic design principles and applications of Model V94 gas turbines are discussed with special reference to highly reliable and economic bulk power generation, especially for electric power generation.Abstract:
The predominant role of large gas turbines has shifted from peaking-load duty to midrange and base-load electric power generation, especially within combined-cycle plants. Such applications require heavy-duty industrial gas turbines to ensure the same high reliability and availability for continuous service as the associated steam turbines. It is also important that the gas turbines be designed for low maintenance to minimize the necessary outage times and costs for component repair and replacement. The basic design principles and applications of Model V94 gas turbines are discussed with special reference to highly reliable and economic bulk power generation.Copyright © 1985 by ASMEread more
