Abstract

The objective of the US Department of Energy High-Temperature Turbine Technology (DOE-HTTT) program is to develop and bring to technology readiness an efficient high firing temperature gas turbine for application in an Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant. One of the tasks of Phase II of the program was to perform turbine hot-section stationary components design, fabrication, and testing. Steady-state and transient tests were planned at full scale for the Technology Readiness Vehicle (TRV) and at full operating conditions of the hot gas throughflow. A new test facility, the Hot-Gas Path Development Test Stand (HGPDTS) was to be designed, fabricated, and installed for testing of single combustor and of turbine nozzle sector components. This topical report consists of two parts. Part I provides a detailed summary of the HGPDTS facility from initial design through operational verification. Part II provides summaries of specimen descriptions, tests performed, test results, and data evaluation. After the installation of the HGPDTS, a series of tests was performed to verify satisfactory operation of all systems. These tests included a hydro-test of stand components and systems, checks, and a hot air test of the total system. These tests verified the construction and installation of the Hot-Gasmore »« less

Development of high temperature turbine subsystem technology to a ''technology readiness status'': Phase II. Quarterly report

Technical Report Caruvana, A.

Technology testing of full-size, stationary, hot gas path components including both performance and endurance tests in a simulated turbine environment is a major element of the HTTT Phase II program. The test stand facility and the test specimens design and fabrication are discussed herein. A critical element is the test stand combustor which is being designed similar to the final Test Readiness Vehicle (TRV) combustor design. Supporting tests designed to supply significant data relative to gas-side heat transfer coefficients, deposition and corrosion effects of low-Btu gas, chemical cleanup of low-Btu gas, and coolant channel heat transfer characteristics are included inmore »« less

High-temperature turbine technology program hot-gas path development test. Part II. Testing

Technical Report Horner, M

This topical report of the US Department of Energy High-Temperature Turbine Technology (DOE-HTTT) Phase II program presents the results of testing full-scale water-cooled first-stage and second-stage turbine nozzles at design temperature and pressure to verify that the designs are adequate for operation in a full-scale turbine environment. Low-cycle fatigue life of the nozzles was demonstrated by subjecting cascade assemblies to several hundred simulated startup/shutdown turbine cycles. This testing was accomplished in the Hot-Gas Path Development Test Stand (HGPDTS), which is capable of evaluating full-scale combustion and turbine nozzle components. A three-throat cascade of the first-stage turbine nozzle was successfully testedmore »« less
