Development of High-Temperature Subsystem Technology to a Technology Readiness State:Phase 1. Final Report,June 1976--February 1977.

摘要

The United States Energy Research and Development Administration is sponsoring a three phase program to develop and demonstrate the technology required for the efficient and environmentally acceptable use of coal-derived fuels in an industrial gas-turbine engine for an electrical power generation application. The first phase of this program,Phase 1,consisted of the program and subsystem definition. The Phase 1design definition studies were directed primarily at achieving the critical objectives of high performance,durability,low risk,and acceptable emissions for the turbine and combustor subsystems. United Technologies selected two turbine subsystem designs that supplement each other and offer maximum performance potential at low risk. The selected low-Btu gas combustor design provides durable operation with low exhaust emissions and is easily maintained. Combined cycle plant concepts were developed to assure the applicability of the subsystem concepts. Plans for the subsequent phases of the program include the elements of proven methods of technology development and realistic technology demonstration employing proven test techniques using full-size components.
