Advanced Hot Gas Cleaning System for Coal Gasification Processes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The United States electric industry is entering a period where growth and the aging of existing plants will mandate a decision on whether to repower, add capacity, or do both. The power ...
A Direct Coal-Fired Combustion Turbine Power System Based on Slagging Gasification With In-Situ Gas Cleaning
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Westinghouse began the development of a compact, entrained, slagging gasifier technology utilizing in-situ fuel gas cleaning for combustion turbine power cycles in 1986. The slagging gasifier is ...
Optimization of Advanced Steam Condition Power Plants
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The modern pulverized-coal power plant is the product of continuous design experience and component improvement in the 20th century. In recent years, studies of the effect of high temperatures ...
Development of a Hydrogen-Fueled Combustion Turbine Cycle for Power Generation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Consideration of a hydrogen based economy is attractive because it allows energy to be transported and stored at high densities and then transformed into useful work in pollution-free turbine ...
Final Report on the Development of a Hydrogen-Fueled Combustion Turbine Cycle for Power Generation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Through its New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) the Japanese government is sponsoring the World Energy Network (WE-NET) Program. WE-NET is a 28-year global effort ...
Experimental Studies of Air Extraction for Cooling and/or Gasification in Gas Turbine Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes an experimental study on how the flow field inside the dump diffuser of an industrial gas turbine is affected by air extraction through a single port on the shell around ...
A Combined Cycle Designed to Achieve Greater Than 60 Percent Efficiency
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Morgantown Energy Technology Center, Westinghouse is working on Phase 2 of an 8-year Advanced Turbine Systems Program to develop the technologies ...
Development Requirements for an Advanced Gas Turbine System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In cooperation with U.S. Department of Energy’s Morgantown Energy Technology Center, a Westinghouse-led team is working on the second part of an 8-year, Advanced Turbine Systems Program to develop ...
Evolution of Westinghouse Heavy-Duty Power Generation and Industrial Combustion Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper reviews the evolution of heavy-duty power generation and industrial combustion turbines in the United States from a Westinghouse Electric Corporation perspective. Westinghouse combustion ...
Effect of Air Extraction for Cooling and/or Gasification on Combustor Flow Uniformity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reducing emissions is an important issue facing gas turbine manufacturers. Almost all of the previous and current research and development for reducing emissions has focused, however, on flow, ...
