DEVICE FOR AVOIDING THE BLOWING OUT OF THE WATER SUPPLY FROM COMPRESSED AIR STORAGE SYSTEMS FOR GAS TURBINE POWER PLANTS

摘要

An apparatus for preventing the blowing out of the water supply of constant pressure air storage installations for gas turbine power plants, which is intended to be installed as a preferably prefabricated unit at the upper end of a riser tube or pipe of an air storage cavern. The apparatus contains venting tubes, the lower ends of which are staggered in elevation. Further, there are provided guide elements which, on the one hand, guide part of the water-air mixture flowing out of the riser tube into the vent tubes or pipes and, on the other hand, form an extended flow channel for the remaining water-air mixture which directly flows into a compensation basin.
