CONT

We are deeply involved in cogeneration plants including biomass and gas turbines. ... Co-Generation Power Island. .... "Power Islands," "Merchant Plants," "Across the Fence Cogeneration," "Third Party Steam Plants," and "Client CHP" are some of the names used to refer to unconventional commercial arrangements for the production and procurement of steam and electrical power to pulp and paper mills. Although the term "Power Island" is often used to describe third party cogeneration facilities, the concept is completely different from an island. The power house that provides the steam and power to the mill has a direct and immediate effect on the pulp mill’s operational stability and uptime as well as the operating costs.

CONT

The IGCC [Integrated Gasification with Combined Cycle] demonstration plant in Puertollano features many advantages compared to conventional coal fired power stations with flue gas desulphurization(FGD) and DeNOx systems :... The plant consists of the following three main units : Power island, gasification island, and oxygen production plant(Air Separation).... The power island. The combined cycle in the Puertollano plant... can be operated both with natural gas and synthesis gas. The main features are : A 200 MWe(ISO) Siemens model V94. 3 gas turbine. A three-pressure level and IP steam reheating heat recovery steam generator designed by Babcock able to additionally superheat the steam generated through raw gas cooling in the gasification. A two casing reheat steam turbine designed by Siemens that delivers roughly 135 MWe. The clean coal gas is burned by the coal gas burners in the combustion chamber of the gas turbine. The sensible heat of extracted air is used for clean gas saturation, low pressure steam production and preheating of impure nitrogen. [Text accompanied by a schematic diagram. ]

CONT

The liberalization of the energy market is demanding more-efficient power plants using cheaper fuels. ... The first option ... is to convert old oil- or existing gas-fired power plants to new combined-cycle power plants. The second option is to convert old oil- or existing gas-fired units to efficient and environmentally friendly power plants that burn cheaper fuels, using the best available technology for the power island and the flue gas treatment equipment.

PHR

English

Subject field(s)
  • Steam Turbines
  • Nuclear Fission Reactors
  • Compartment - Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission
CONT

The double flow turbine design not only provides double the expansion volume within a common casing, it also balances the large pressure drop between the turbine steam inlet and exhaust which tends to force the blade wheels from the high-pressure side towards the low-pressure side.... Steam enters the turbine in the middle of the casing and expands outward in both directions before exhausting at the ends of the turbine. In each half of the turbine, a very large thrust is generated. These thrusts oppose each other; the resultant force is significantly reduced.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Turbines à vapeur
  • Réacteurs nucléaires de fission
  • Tiroir - Commission canadienne de sûreté nucléaire
CONT

Premièrement, une turbine à double flux permet de doubler le volume d'expansion dans une seule turbine. Deuxièmement, elle absorbe la forte chute de pression de la vapeur, qui se traduit par une force exercée sur les roues à ailettes depuis le côté haute pression vers le côté basse pression. [...] La vapeur pénètre dans la turbine par le milieu du corps et se dilate vers l'extérieur dans les deux directions, avant d'être évacuée aux deux extrémités de la machine. Chaque moitié de la turbine produit une très forte poussée.

Once backpressure was put on the formation, it shut the production down. In our particular case, one of the reasons it did was that we had low formation pressure. We developed a casing blow system in which instead of conveying the flash steam for the well bore to the atmosphere to keep the pressure off the formation, we started collecting that casing head steam and its accompanying distilled products.
