2nd Field of Application/Use


In the use of exhaust gas thermal energy, the gas turbine generator unit
provides economical power supply to the base power range. This type of
energy conversion is known as combined heat and power (CHP). The useful
heat is contained exclusively in the exhaust gas, and namely in that for the
waste heat and reasonably high temperature area. The unit thereby has
special advantages, where, along with electrical energy, a correspondingly
high grade heat requirement is to be covered.
Depending on the utilisation of the exhaust gas temperature and the
respective environmental conditions, electrical efficiency lies in the range of
30%, and fuel consumption efficiency in the range of 70% to 85%.
Gas turbines work as shown in the following simplified process:

Ambient air is drawn in and compressed in the compressor stages.


Compressed air and fuel are ignited in the combustion chamber.

The resulting volume of hot gas is directed to the turbine stages.


Through the inclination of the turbine blades, the volume of hot gas is
directed in a particular direction, causing the turbine wheel to rotate.
This rotating movement is carried from the turbine rotor to the gear.

With the necessary gear ratio of the gear, a rotational speed is created,
which is converted by the generator into an electrically useful rotational
frequency.

Rough schematic sketches of a gas turbine generator unit


The gas turbine is an industrial gas turbine, built as an single-shaft engine, in
accordance with the open loop principle and a practically constant output
speed. This gas turbine was developed exclusively for the drive mechanism
of power generation.
Power generation:
A KAWASAKI gas turbine generator unit is mainly used for power generation.
Waste heat utilisation
The arising thermal energy of the turbine exhaust gases is used in many
different ways.
This therrqal energy is mainly converted into:
Process steam, which is used, for example, in the paper industry for drying
purposes.

Hot water, which is used in heating networks.

Cold water generation through absorption freezing machines.

Operating condition
The normal operating condition of the gas turbine generator unit is largely
network-parallel.
Isolated operation is occasionally possible and in emergency situations.

The gas turbine generator unit is designed for operating in automatic mode.
During normal operation, the gas turbine generator will be remotely monitored.
Handling of the machine technology within the sound enclosure during normal operation of
the gas turbine generator unit is not necessary.
All other or abnormal application and use of the gas turbine generator unit is not permitted.
Kawasaki Gas Turbine Europe GmbH accepts no liability for damage to persons or material!

B Safety
B. 1 KAWASAKI safety concept (protection from explosions)
Due to the high quality and safety standards at KAWASAKI, the concept for the
gas turbine generator unit has been in reliable use for years.
KAWASAKI takes precautions to prevent danger from arising, monitors the
installationconstantly and has also installed safety measures to eliminate
danger.
>
In addition, an inspection was carried out in accordance with the ATEX Directive
94/9EC and concludes with an evaluating description.
This separate safety concept can be seen at KGE on request, (document no.:
EFR3389-091214)

Image 6 Example

The turbine housing is constructed in


individual sections and consists of the
suction house, the Bellmouth, the
compressor housing, the turbine housing
and the exhaust gas diffuser. The

housing parts are connected to each


other in an airtight manner, but can be
dismantled individually.
The bearing seat and main blade is
installed in the air suction housing and
exhaust gas diffuser. The bearings in the
air suction housing is marked as "cold
bearings" with "bearings #1"; the
bearings in the exhaust gas diffuser as
"hot bearings" in "bearings #2".
Each turbine wheel is designed with
gears so that all wheels are connected to
each other. Bolts are also used as
additional fixing.
The compressor wheels are coupled with
the turbine wheels using a rigid clutch.
The torque is transferred over this
coupling.

The "Power Section" consists of three


main components.
A. Compressor
B. Combustion
chamber
system
C. Turbine

Compressor
The
compressor
draws in
ambient air
and
compresses it
for operating
the gas
turbine. To achieve a high level of
efficiency, an axial compressor was
selected.
The compressor rotor segments
consist of several wheels, which are

Image

welded together using an electron


beam method.
The compressor has 11 stage rotor
blades (on the rotor) and 11 stage guide
vanes, as well as inlet guide vanes (IGV)
and outlet guide vanes (OGV).
The suctioned air is accelerated through
the Bellmouth and directed to the IGV's.
The first four stages (including IGV) are
adjustable (VSV system), in order to
achieve a high level of efficiency and to
avoid flow separation during the start-up
procedure.
The air is compressed in stages,
reaching a pressure of approx 1.2 MPa
(12 bar) at a compression ratio of 15.9:1
resulting in:

Image 8

Combustion chambers
The 6 combustion chambers are
arranged over external, concentric
distribution pipes and supplied with fuel.
Each of the six combustion chambers
consists of a transition duct and the
actual combustion chamber. The
combustion chambers are conical, point

backwards and are arranged on the


turbine surface.
A large part of the compressed air is fed
between the combustion chamber and
the combustion chamber housing for
cooling purposes. The remaining part is
fed into the combustion chamber and
burned as a gas mixture. It is then fed
into the gas turbine.
Each combustion chamber has a fuel
nozzle system, over which the different
load conditions of the gas turbine can be
achieved.
Image 9 shows an example of the nozzle of
a combustion chamber.

Combustion chambers 2 and 3 are both


fitted with an ignition plug, which ignites
the fuel at start-up.
To transfer the flames in the adjacent
combustion chambers, they are
connected by a flame transfer tube (not
No. 5 and 6). Combustion chambers 5
and 6, which are last in the firing order,
are fitted with flame detectors. The flame
detectors inform the operator about the
control of the gas turbine, as to whether
ignition is completed.

Turbine
The guide tube directs the hot, highpressure combustion gases to the first
baffle plate of the first turbine level. In
the 4 axial turbine levels, the energy of
the gaseous medium is converted into
torque by releasing the approximate
ambient pressure. When leaving the
turbine, the gases have significantly
lower pressure and a lower temperature
(approx. 550 C, depending on the
ambient conditions). The exhaust gas
diffuser stops the flow of exhaust gas,
which is then fed over the connected
bellows expansion joint and through the
exhaust gas pipe and out of the turbine.

Thermal expansion of the gas turbine. Temperature distribution


Image 11 shows the thermal expansion of the gas turbine under nominal
conditions. The vertical movement is very slight (under 0.7 mm) and can be
ignored.
On the contrary, the horizontal length variations are not to be ignored. The
exhaust flange shifts about 10.2 mm across the length of the gas turbine. These
data are to be considered when designing exhaust gas expansion joints and other
piping. When using the exhaust gas expansion joints provided by Kawasaki inside
the noise enclosure, these thermal length changes are worked in.
The image also hows the temperature distribution of the gas turbine under the
same conditions. These data are important for the design of cooling, ventilation
and heat protection.

Sensors
The gas turbine has several sensors for the following functional areas:
Control:
The sensor signal serves the turbine control.
Safety:
To guarantee safe turbine operation, an alarm and emergency shut-down
system is integrated. The turbine control monitors the sensor signals and
triggers an alarm or shut-down signal if the sensor signal lies outside the
intended range.
The layout of the sensors is shown in image 29.

Starter motor
As as starting
help for a speed
of 0-70%, a
three-phase
current squirrel

cage rotor is
used.
A robust
frequency
converter for
high output
drives, which is
suitable for
different
industrial
operating
environments,
enables the
management
and control.
IGBT and DTC
technology is
integrated for
low-loss control
of the threephase current
squirrel cage
rotor motors.
Turning gear
After shutting
down the gas
turbine, this
must be turned
at low speed in
order to avoid
warpage of the
blade from
different cooling

in the gas
turbine.
For this, the
aforementioned
starter motor is
used.

During partial
load operation
of the gas
turbine, too
much ambient
air is drawn in
and compressed
by the turbine
compressor.
Due to the
combustionrelated
procedures
within the gas
turbine, and the
excess air, the
required

exhaust gas
values can be
exceeded.
For
this
reason,
not
only the fuel
is regulated
during partial
load
operation, but
also part of
the
compressor
air which is
determined in
the
combustion
chamber
is
fed
directly
into
the
exhaust gas

To operate the
gas turbine and
to monitor it
during
operation,
additional
sensors are
installed in the
gas turbine.

The gas
turbine lube oil
system
consists of the
oil tank,
pumps, filters,
oil coolers and
other devices
for controlling
the required
components.
A good
description
and
presentation of
the
components is
available in
the respective
datasheets.
The lube oil is
drawn in from
the oil tank,
over a check
valve and dirt
trap, and
compressed at
a constant
pressure of 5
bar. The
constant
pressure of 5
bar is set
using an

internal
pressure
control valve,
in order to
protect other
components.
A thermostat
regulates the oil
feed in accordance
with the oil
temperature.
Cold lube oil is
fed directly in
to
the
circulation,
from the lube
oil cooler over
a
bypass.
From
a
temperature of
about
30C,
the thermostat
valve
is
activated, so
that a partial
flow can first
be
directed
over the oil
cooler.
Depending on
the
temperature,
the thermostat
opens or
closes and

maintains a
lube oil
temperature of
about 40C.
After this, the
lube oil is fed
from the
cooler through
a switchable
double filter *
(10 pm), which
secures the
required oil
purity.
After the
double
filter, the
lube oil is
distributed
in
the
respective
lube
oil
volumes
and
temperatu
res.
A
secondary
exhaust
gas valve
regulates
the
pressure
of the lube
oil at 1.5
bar.

A partial flow
of 131 l/min is
set over an
aperture, for
lubrication and
cooling
bearings #1
and #2.
The remaining lube
oil (approx. 398
l/min) is fed to the
gear and
generator.
The relevant
measuring
points for the
thermometers,
pressure
sensors and
pressure
switches are
integrated into
the oil system.
The respective
data are
hereby
monitored
during the
start-up
procedure and
operation, and
relevant
measures are
taken.
All feed points
for lube oil in
the gas turbine

generator unit
are fitted with
a return pipe.
The lube oil is
thereby
transported
back to the
tank, where
the flow is
steadied and
gas bubbles
are eliminated.
Similarly, oil
mist, which
arises from
torsion in the
bearing seals,
is fed over a
pipe in the oil
tank and
cleaned in an
oil mist
separator.

Oil mist separator


The oil mist separator is responsible for drawing oil mist out of the lube oil
tank, and separating the air from the oil.
After filtering, the air is directed in this case over the roof and into the open
air. The separated oil is fed back into the lube oil tank.
All oil drains and oil vapour openings are then attached to the gas turbine
using light suction pressure, taken from the negative pressure from the oil
mist separator in the lube oil tank.
In this way, the retention time of the lube oil inside the gas turbine is
reduced, although leakages rarely occur.

Lube oil tank equipment
Lube oil level display: This enables the lube oil to be checked from outside the
package. The lower limit is the lower part of the suction opening of the pump. The
upper limit is established by the volume of oil.

Lube oil level switch for external alerts of the oil tank content.
Suction side dirt traps for the mechanical main lube oil pump, electrical auxiliary pump
and control oil pump.
Lube oil tank heating and temperature sensor. When the gas turbine is stopped, the
lube oil temperature should be regulated at approx. 10C. Should the lube oil
temperature fall below 10C, the the lube oil tank heating is switched on via the lube oil
temperature switch, so that the lube oil is warmed up. The heating system is turned off
when the oil temperature has reached ~15C.
Oil mist separator: This separates the oil vapours in the gear and oil sump, and feeds
the oil which has been captured from the oil mist back into the tank. This recirculation
reduces oil consumption, while the clean air from the oil can be emitted into the
environment. Oil mist is suctioned from the tank and its connected systems by a
ventilator with an air inlet, in order to establish a certain vacuum in the system.
This vacuum prevents oil leakages into the bearing sealings of the gas turbine and the
gear. Negative pressure inside the oil tank must be kept at -100 mmWC. At 5m3/min,
the ventilator capacity should have a negative pressure of -100 mmWC.
A tank filling pump is provided for filling and emptying the lube oil tank; its relevant
function can be selected using a 3-way valve.

Safety blow-off valve (Start gas)

Natural gas control valve and

Natural gas distributor ring

Natural gas - injectors

DLE control valve

HK Kawasaki
Installation of the Gas-/ & Liquid-fuel system (# 3044 Bacau)
The gas turbine is designed as a DLE variant with a single fuel system.
The fuel control system enables monitoring and control of all required
operating conditions, such as start-up, different accelerating and power
conditions from zero to full power.
(see P&ID E3029 080 102 and E3029 080 103)

Before each start, a control of the leak-tightness is carried out over a valve
combination.
By using the pressure controllers for monitoring the fuel pressure, in the event of
leakage or too low pressure, a start-up is prevented (it is not possible to operate
the gas turbine with gas fuel).
During operation, the configured speed is maintained using a speed control circuit.
The actual value signal comes from one of the magnetic encoders which are
mounted on the turbine blades.
The main components of the Gas fuel system are:

Switchable double-filter-unit
Safety shut-off valve combination, DVGW permitted,
with position feedback system
Safety ventilation valve, DVGW permitted, with
position feedback system
Gas Leakage detector, DVGW permitted
Gas measurement valve (main gas fuel governor)
Multi-burner unit, air pressure controlled
Parallel ring piping
6 each fuel chambers with nozzles
Pressure monitoring with switches and manometers
Gas fuel flexible tubes
Piping from the connecting flanges on the base frame to the gas turbine in
stainless steel.
The approved fuel is natural gas H (with methane as its main component),
which is delivered controlled, dry and clean, and with the necessary supply
pressure.
A main manually operated shut-off valve is fitted in front of the entrance to the gas
turbine generator unit.

The main components of the Liquid Fuel system (# 3044 Bacau) are:

Switchable double-filter-unit
Double Safety shut-off valve combination, with position feedback system
Safety ventilation valve, DVGW permitted, with position feedback system
Liquid fuel Leakage detector

5 x flametransfer tubes

2x3 = 6-each combustion chambers

Image 33.5

Manifolds
The manifolds are responsible for consistently supplying natural gas to
the individual injectors.
This is done in accordance with the respective operating conditions of the
gas turbine.
Combustion chambers
The gas turbine has 6 separate combustion chambers. 3 per side, which are
connected to each other by flexible metal hoses (flame pipes).
The two lower combustion chambers on each side are those which are
ignited. Following ignition, there is a flame rollover to the third/most upper
combustion chamber.
Flame tubes
Following ignition, the flames are fed through the flame tubes to the two
lower combustion chambers and the combustion chambers lying above.
Flame detectors
During the start-up procedure, a flame must be detected in the uppermost
combustion chamber. If this does not happen, start-up is immediately
aborted.
Ignition plugs
The two lower combustion chambers are installed with ignition plugs.
During the start up procedure, at approx. 7% of the nominal speed, each of
the two lower combustion chambers on each side is ignited.

V C.9 Starter motor, purge and turn system


Description
Starter
system
General
The role of the starter, purge and turn motor is to turn the turbine for 48
hours after shut-down, in order to ensure even cooling of the turbine
components. In this way, bending of the blades from its own weight and
resulting rotor grinding on the stator is avoided. The operation of the starter,
purge and turn motor is monitored and controlled by the gas turbine control
system.
The starter system consists of a three-phase asynchronous motor, which is
flange mounted to the gear housing, and a frequency converter, which is in
the control room. It is monitored and controlled by the Engine Controller. The
torque of the starter motor is transferred over the gear to the turbine, so that
they start turning. Once the turbine has reached a nominal speed of 65%,
the starter motor is mechanically decoupled from the gear, using a synchro
self- shifting clutch, and is simultaneously electrically switched off over a
shut-down signal from the control system..
The converter supplies the motor with the variable frequency necessary for
this case. The motor is operated in a closed loop, in order to also bring the
required torque at zero speed. This also enables stable operation with
maximum torque.
The output part of the converter has the classic configuration: network-side
rectifier diode bridge, voltage and current equalisation and IGBT-inverter as
a 6-pulse bridge. In addition there are the control circuits. In the engine
control, the DCT technology (direct torque control) is used, in order to ensure
low-loss and stable control.

C.10

Ignition system

Description

CAUTION
The ignition plugs may only be switched on when the ignition cables are securely fastened in
their plugs!
General
This system consists of two electronic ignition triggers with high-voltage calbes and 2 ignition
plugs in each of the two combustion chambers. When the turbine speed has reached about 5
to 8% of nominal speed, the ignition impulse is initially transferred to two ignition plugs. The
air/fuel mixture is sparked in the combustion chamber and the flames are carried to the other
combustion chambers over the flame tubes.
When the turbine speed has reached 25% of the nominal speed, the ignition trigger voltage is
switched off and combustion runs independently.
The ignition signal is controlled and monitored by the turbine control system.

C. 11 Bleed Air Ventil IVSV Control System


Description
DLE Bleed
General
This regulator controls the flow of compressed air pressure from the turbine
main house to the exhaust gas pipe. The measure enables "compressor
pumps" to be avoided during start-up of the turbine. See system diagram
(next page)

This controls the increasing compression pressure of the combustion air pressure. The
measure serves to drive the increasing compression pressure during the start-up procedure
to the exhaust gas pipe, thereby relieving the starter motor.
At the beginning of the start-up, the valve is completely opened and is slowly closed when
there is increasing speed.
At 70% rpm, the start-bleed valve is completely closed.

the nominal speed)
0 to 25

In this speed range the compressor input pressure is


about the same as the ambient pressure. Seal air is not
required.

25 to 85

In this speed range the compressor pressure is low and


unstable. The external source of compressed air is
therefore used.

85 to 100

Pressure level of the compressed air after the fifth


stage is sufficient for pressing on the seal.

Specification
The specification for seal air is as follows:

C. 13 Cleaning system compressor
Description
General

The aim of the compressor cleaning is to maintain a high


level of efficiency and to prevent erosion/corrosion.
To guarantee the performance of the gas turbine over a longer
period of time, the compressor in the gas turbine is washed at
predetermined time intervals.
This work is carried out by Kawasaki Service Peronnel
Two cleaning methods will be used:
1. The hot compressor wash ("hot wash") for running gas turbines
2. The cold compressor wash ("cold wash") for idle gas turbines.
The turbine is driven by the starter motor. The interval for
cleaning the compressor depends on the degree of
soiling and can be determined by continuously
monitoring the gas turbine performance.

Gas warning and fire extinguishing system


C.16
Description
The Gas Turbine Generator Unit GPB80D has its own gas warning and
fire detection system.

Gas warning system

Image
38

The gas warning system consists of 2 gas sensors, which are


installed in the noise enclosure in the area of the gas injection (1
at the front at the
gas inlet,
and 1 above the gas supply in the ceiling area).
The evaluation system is installed in the control cabinet.
Both sensors have the following switching thresholds:
20% LFL (LFL = lower flammability limit)
40% LFL (LFL = lower flammability limit)

pre-alarm
pre-alarm
with shut-down of the gas
turbine and closure of the
main gas valve

In the event of one of the two gas detectors sounding, an alarm message is
triggered if there is a threshold of 20% LFL (lower flammability limit).
If a threshold of 40% LFL is reached, an emergency shut-down of the gas
turbine is initiated. The gas valve inside the noise enclosure is closed and the
gas ventilation opened.
The noise enclosure ventilation remains on, in order to lead the escaped
gas over the sound enclosure ventilation system, out of the sound
enclosure and into the open air.
Further users are switched without voltage.
An optical and acoustic notification of a gas alarm is given by one of the
yellow flashing lights installed at the front exterior wall of the sound
enclosure, and by an alarm sound apparatus installed int he same place.

Gas turbine control system


From installation on, the gas turbine control system is described in the manufacturers
documents; the functions are described under "Electrical Control Systems".
Air ducts
Air ducts inside and outside the building, which are responsible for air (supply, exhaust) will be
supported by the ventilators.
A detailed description of this component can be found in the manufacturer's documentation.

Combustion air
The gas turbine generator unit has an air inlet
In this air inlet housing, which is protected against weather and birds, the first
two filter levels of class G2 droplet separator (coalescer) and G4 (pre-filter)
are installed.
Using an air duct, all the air, cool air to the package and combustion air is then
directed to the gas turbine over separate sound absorbers in the actual filter
house above the package.
The two main filter stages for the combustion air are in the filter house - F7
(fine filter) and H10 (Hepa-filter). Using these filters, the combustion air
required for operating the gas turbine is cleaned.
The combustion air reaches the gas turbine over a connected redirection with
flow metal sheets, via a connected sound absorber, a transmission channel
and expansion joint.
The cool air for the package is blown out of the air ducts, without further
filtering, directly into the sound enclosure, through two ventilators which are
installed in two separate areas of the filter house. It is then drawn in again by
two ventilators located on the opposite side.
On the exhaust gas side, the gas turbine is connected, via the exhaust gas
expansion joint and the exhaust gas pipe, with the exhaust gas flange which is
installed on the sound enclosure.
Pressure loss
The specific values of suction loss are described in the following section.
Suction pressure loss indicates the difference between the ambient pressure
and the pressure at the upper air inlet of the turbine.
This difference must be under 20 mbar.
Exhaust gas back pressure indicates the difference between the pressure at
the exhaust gas flange of the turbine and the ambient pressure.
This difference must be under 40 mbar.
These differences in pressure reduce the turbine output and can lead to
damage to the turbine when exceeded. They are therefore important criteria
when designing gas turbine generator units. Furthermore, when the suction
pressure loss exceeds the design values, countermeasures must be taken
(e.g. exchange the filter).
Combustion air filter

The ambient conditions largely depend on the installation site of the turbine, but it must
always be ensured that the pre-combustion air is free from foreign objects and corrosive
material.
The following measures are intended in this regard:
1. Intake port for external air: Here a safety measure in the form of a weather protection
grill with a bird screen is provided.
There is an air velocity of 2.8 m/s inside the weather protection grill and bird screen.
2. The actual fine filtration of air into combustion air for the gas turbine takes place in the
"filter house". The load limit of the filter is typically approx.
3.300
m3/h. The lower the inflow, the longer the downtime of the individual filters and the
risk of icing.
The following table summarises the filter specification.
