POWER GENERATION SYSTEM HAVING COMPRESSOR CREATING EXCESS GAS FLOW FOR SUPPLEMENTAL GAS TURBINE SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make a higher capacity compressor available.SOLUTION: A gas turbine system (102) includes a turbine component (104), an integral compressor (106) and a combustor (108) to which air from the integral compressor (106) and fuel are supplied, the combustor (108) arranged to supply hot combustion gases to the turbine component (104), and the integral compressor (106) having a flow capacity greater than an intake capacity of the combustor (108) and/or the turbine component (104), creating an excess air flow (200). A first control valve system (202) controls a flow of the excess air flow (200) along an excess air flow (200) path to a supplemental gas turbine system (272). The excess air flow (200) is combusted with the fuel and supplied to the supplemental gas turbine system (272). An eductor (252) is positioned in the excess air flow (200) path for using the excess air flow (200) as a motive force to augment the excess air flow (200) with an additional gas.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
