METHOD OF GENERATING THERMAL ENERGY FROM WATER-CONTAINING FUEL AT GAS TURBINE POWER STATION AND GAS TURBINE POWER STATION WORKING ON WATER-CONTAINING FUEL Russian patent published in 1996 - IPC

FIELD: generation of thermal or electric energy at burning water-containing fuel. SUBSTANCE: gas turbine power station has fuel burning unit 1, gas turbine 15, electric current generator 16 and heat recovery unit connected with outlet of gas turbine 15. Water-containing fuel is dried at high pressure by means of thermal energy of turbine exhaust gases and steam obtained at drying stage is fed to high-pressure section of burning process at point between air compressor 2 and gas turbine 15, for example, to fuel burning or gasification unit 1. EFFECT: enhanced reliability. 4 cl, 1 dwg, 1 tbl
