Abstract

Abstract A combined gas and steam turbine plant includes a coal gasification system having a heat exchanger device and preferably a gas scrubber connected downstream of the heat exchanger device. A gas turbine part is connected downstream of the coal gasification system and has an exhaust gas turbine. A steam generator system receives exhaust gas from the exhaust gas turbine and has an economizer heating surface, an evaporator heating surface, and superheater heating surfaces. A steam turbine part is connected to the steam generator system and has a high-pressure feedwater system. The heat exchanger device of the coal gasification system is connected in such a way that it directly transfers or gives up thermal energy for feedwater heating or steam generation to the high-pressure feedwater system of the steam turbine part.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 136 words
Combined gas and steam turbine plant, comprising a coal gasification system having a heat exchanger device with an inlet and an outlet; a gas turbine part being connected downstream of said coal gasification system and having an exhaust gas turbine; a steam generator system receiving exhaust gas from said exhaust gas turbine and having an economizer heating surface, an evaporator heating surface, and superheater heating surfaces; a steam turbine part being connected to said steam generator system and having a high-pressure feedwater system; and means for connecting said heat exchanger device of said coal gasification system to said high-pressure feedwater system of said steam turbine part for directly transferring thermal energy for feedwater heating, wherein said connecting means connects said outlet of said heat exchanger device to said economizer heating surface of said steam generator system.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 136 words
Combined gas and steam turbine plant, comprising a coal gasification system having a heat exchanger device with an inlet and an outlet; a gas turbine part being connected downstream of said coal gasification system and having an exhaust gas turbine; a steam generator system receiving exhaust gas from said exhaust gas turbine and having an economizer heating surface, an evaporator heating surface, and superheater heating surfaces; a steam turbine part being connected to said steam generator system and having a high-pressure feedwater system; and means for connecting said heat exchanger device of said coal gasification system to said high-pressure feedwater system of said steam turbine part for directly transferring thermal energy for feedwater heating, wherein said connecting means connects said outlet of said heat exchanger device to said economizer heating surface of said steam generator system.
