Gas turbine topping cycle industrial cogeneration system. Annual report January-December 1983
A gas turbine topping cycle cogeneration system is being developed to specifically meet the needs of industrial cogenerators in the 2-10 MWe range. Emphasis is placed on system integration. A single, prime reliable drive train and a single control center replace a wide assortment of nonintegrated, free-standing power drives and control centers. The system produces a nominal 3 MWe of power and 19,500 lb/hr of 250 psig saturated steam using an Allison 501-KH gas turbine and a natural circulation waste heat boiler. A steam injected feature is employed to increase output to 4 MWe when process steam demand diminishes. The system is prepackaged, skid-mounted and delivered in four modules; one each for the machinery, duct burner, waste heat boiler and controls. A demonstration in a General Motors plant is planned in 1985.
