Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for cooling a gas turbine with a compressor, a turbine unit and with a rotor, which is carried out after the operation of the gas turbine and in which the rotor is at least temporarily driven during a cooling phase at a reduced rated speed.
- the object of the invention is to provide a method for cooling a gas turbine with a rotor, which causes even faster cooling of the gas turbine to further reduce the service life of the gas turbine.
- the solution provides that for faster cooling at least temporarily during the cooling phase, a liquid is introduced before the compressor in the air stream, which flows through the flow channel of the compressor and the turbine unit of the gas turbine.
- the invention is based on the idea that by introducing a liquid into the air stream, the liquid stream enriched with liquid can take up and remove a larger amount of heat per unit of time from the still heated gas turbine. This leads to faster cooling of the gas turbine than in the previously known from the prior art method.
- the gas turbine can be cooled faster along its entire longitudinal extent along the rotor. Consequently, the compressor, the combustion chamber and the turbine unit are flowed through by the cooled air flow during the implementation of the method.

- the faster cooling of the gas turbine allows inspections, inspections and maintenance to be carried out earlier by the installation staff. This reduces the service life of the gas turbine and increases its availability.
- the embodiment of the method in which the rotational speed of the rotor during the liquid introduction is higher than the rotational speed at which no liquid introduction takes place. Due to the higher speed, more air is pumped through the gas turbine. Thus, the airflow can absorb more liquid without water retention causing cracks or crack growth on the components of the gas turbine.
- the introduction of the liquid takes place by means of a compressor washing device.
- Design changes to the gas turbine are not necessary for carrying out the method, so that the retrofitting of existing gas turbines for performing such a method is particularly inexpensive and easy.
- the compressor washing device can also be used a Eindüsvoriques for a liquid which is provided at the compressor inlet and which injects a liquid in the sucked ambient air during operation of the gas turbine to increase the mass flow.
- This method which is carried out during operation of the gas turbine, is known by the term "wet compression” or else "wet compression”.

- Wreaths 21 of guide vanes 15 are likewise arranged in the turbine unit 13, which, viewed in the direction of the flow medium, is followed by a ring of rotor blades 17.
- the respective blade profiles of the guide vanes 15 and of the rotor blades 17 extend in a radial manner in an annular flow channel 27 extending through the compressor 9 and the turbine unit 13.
- air 29 is sucked through the intake manifold 7 and compressed by the compressor.

- the compressed air 29 is mixed with a fuel 35, which mixture in the annular combustion chamber 11 is burned to a hot gas 37.
- the hot gas 37 flows through the flow channel 27 of the turbine unit 13 past guide vanes 15 and blades 17.
- the hot gas 37 relaxes on the blades 17 of the turbine unit 13 to perform work.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Abkühlen einer Gasturbine mit einem Verdichter, einer Turbineneinheit und mit einem Rotor, welches im Anschluss an den Betrieb der Gasturbine durchgeführt wird und bei welchem der Rotor zumindest zeitweise während einer Abkühlphase mit verminderter Nenndrehzahl angetrieben wird.The invention relates to a method for cooling a gas turbine with a compressor, a turbine unit and with a rotor, which is carried out after the operation of the gas turbine and in which the rotor is at least temporarily driven during a cooling phase at a reduced rated speed.
Es ist bekannt, dass im Anschluss an den Betrieb einer Gasturbine der Rotor mit geringer Drehzahl angetrieben wird, um die durch den Betrieb aufgeheizte Gasturbine schneller abzukühlen. Durch die Rotation des Rotors und der an ihm angeordneten Laufschaufeln wird durch den Strömungskanal des Verdichters, die Brennkammer und die Turbineneinheit kühle Umgebungsluft gepumpt. Diese nimmt beim Durchströmen die in der Gasturbine, d.h. im Gehäuse und im Rotor, gespeicherte Wärme auf und transportiert sie ab. Hierdurch kühlt die Gasturbine schneller ab, so dass Service- bzw. Wartungsarbeiten frühzeitig angefangen werden können, denn es ist ein allgemeines Bestreben, die Stillstandszeiten einer Gasturbine zu verringern.It is known that, following operation of a gas turbine, the rotor is driven at low speed to more rapidly cool the gas turbine heated by operation. Due to the rotation of the rotor and the blades arranged on it, cool ambient air is pumped through the flow channel of the compressor, the combustion chamber and the turbine unit. This decreases as it flows through the gas turbine, i. in the housing and in the rotor, stored heat and transported away. As a result, the gas turbine cools faster, so that service or maintenance can be started early, because it is a general effort to reduce the downtime of a gas turbine.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren zum Abkühlen einer Gasturbine mit einem Rotor anzugeben, welches ein noch schnelleres Abkühlen der Gasturbine bewirkt, um die Standzeiten der Gasturbine weiter zu verringern.The object of the invention is to provide a method for cooling a gas turbine with a rotor, which causes even faster cooling of the gas turbine to further reduce the service life of the gas turbine.
Die Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.The object is solved by the features of claim 1.
Die Lösung sieht vor, dass zur schnelleren Abkühlung zumindest zeitweise während der Abkühlphase eine Flüssigkeit vor dem Verdichter in den Luftstrom eingebracht wird, welcher den Strömungskanal des Verdichters und der Turbineneinheit der Gasturbine durchströmt.The solution provides that for faster cooling at least temporarily during the cooling phase, a liquid is introduced before the compressor in the air stream, which flows through the flow channel of the compressor and the turbine unit of the gas turbine.
Die Erfindung geht von der Idee aus, dass durch das Einbringen einer Flüssigkeit in den Luftstrom der mit Flüssigkeit angereicherte Luftstrom eine größere Wärmemenge pro Zeiteinheit aus der noch aufgeheizten Gasturbine aufnehmen und abtransportieren kann. Dies führt zum schnelleren Abkühlen der Gasturbine als bei den bisher aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahren. Dabei wird auch schon der durch den Betrieb aufgeheizte Verdichter und anschließend die Turbineneinheit gekühlt, indem der angesaugte Luftstrom bereits am eintrittsseitigen Ende des Verdichters mit der im Inneren verdampfenden Flüssigkeit angereichert wird. Hierdurch kann die Gasturbine entlang ihrer vollständigen Längserstreckung entlang des Rotors schneller abgekühlt werden. Folglich werden der Verdichter, die Brennkammer und die Turbineneinheit vom gekühlten Luftstrom während der Durchführung des Verfahrens durchströmt. Beim zitierten Stand der Technik wird der Luftstrom erst nach dem Durchströmen des Verdichters gekühlt.The invention is based on the idea that by introducing a liquid into the air stream, the liquid stream enriched with liquid can take up and remove a larger amount of heat per unit of time from the still heated gas turbine. This leads to faster cooling of the gas turbine than in the previously known from the prior art method. In this case, even the heated by the operation of the compressor and then the turbine unit is cooled by the sucked air flow is enriched already at the inlet end of the compressor with the liquid evaporating inside. As a result, the gas turbine can be cooled faster along its entire longitudinal extent along the rotor. Consequently, the compressor, the combustion chamber and the turbine unit are flowed through by the cooled air flow during the implementation of the method. In the cited prior art, the air flow is cooled only after flowing through the compressor.
Durch das schnellere Abkühlen der Gasturbine können Revisionen, Inspektionen und Wartungsarbeiten vom Montagepersonal frühzeitiger durchgeführt werden. Dies verringert die Standzeiten der Gasturbine und erhöht ihre Verfügbarkeit.The faster cooling of the gas turbine allows inspections, inspections and maintenance to be carried out earlier by the installation staff. This reduces the service life of the gas turbine and increases its availability.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments are specified in the subclaims.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist die Ausgestaltung des Verfahrens, bei der die Drehzahl des Rotors während der Flüssigkeitseinbringung höher ist als die Drehzahl, bei der keine Flüssigkeitseinbringung erfolgt. Durch die höhere Drehzahl wird mehr Luft durch die Gasturbine gepumpt. Somit kann der Luftstrom mehr Flüssigkeit aufnehmen, ohne dass Wasseransammlungen Risse bzw. Risswachstum an den Komponenten der Gasturbine hervorrufen.Particularly advantageous is the embodiment of the method in which the rotational speed of the rotor during the liquid introduction is higher than the rotational speed at which no liquid introduction takes place. Due to the higher speed, more air is pumped through the gas turbine. Thus, the airflow can absorb more liquid without water retention causing cracks or crack growth on the components of the gas turbine.
Vorteilhafter Weise erfolgt die Einbringung der Flüssigkeit mittels einer Verdichterwascheinrichtung. Konstruktive Änderungen an der Gasturbine sind zur Durchführung des Verfahrens nicht nötig, so dass die Nachrüstung von bereits existierenden Gasturbinen zur Durchführung eines solchen Verfahrens besonders kostengünstig und einfach möglich ist. Anstelle der Verdichterwascheinrichtung kann auch eine Eindüsvorrichtung für eine Flüssigkeit verwendet werden, welche am Verdichtereintritt vorgesehen ist und welche beim Betrieb der Gasturbine zur Erhöhung des Massenstromes eine Flüssigkeit in die angesaugte Umgebungsluft eindüst. Dieses, beim Betrieb der Gasturbine durchgeführte Verfahren, ist unter dem Begriff "Wet Compression" oder auch "nasse Verdichtung" bekannt.Advantageously, the introduction of the liquid takes place by means of a compressor washing device. Design changes to the gas turbine are not necessary for carrying out the method, so that the retrofitting of existing gas turbines for performing such a method is particularly inexpensive and easy. Instead of the compressor washing device can also be used a Eindüsvorrichtung for a liquid which is provided at the compressor inlet and which injects a liquid in the sucked ambient air during operation of the gas turbine to increase the mass flow. This method, which is carried out during operation of the gas turbine, is known by the term "wet compression" or else "wet compression".
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist es denkbar, dass eine zusätzliche Einbringung von Flüssigkeit in eine Brennkammer der Gasturbine oder in den Strömungskanal einer Turbineneinheit erfolgt. Hierdurch ist es möglich, die beim Betrieb der Gasturbine besonders thermisch belasteten Bereiche nach dem Abschalten der Gasturbine gesondert durch die entstehende Verdunstungskälte zu kühlen.In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is conceivable that an additional introduction of liquid takes place in a combustion chamber of the gas turbine or in the flow channel of a turbine unit. This makes it possible to separately cool the regions which are particularly thermally stressed during operation of the gas turbine after the gas turbine has been switched off by the resulting evaporation cold.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn als Flüssigkeit destilliertes Wasser eingebracht wird. Hierdurch können Ablagerungen im Strömungskanal der Gasturbine vermieden werden.It is particularly advantageous if distilled water is introduced as the liquid. As a result, deposits in the flow channel of the gas turbine can be avoided.

Verdichter und Gasturbinen sowie deren Arbeitsweisen sind allgemein bekannt. Hierzu zeigt
Entlang der Rotationsachse 3 weist die Gasturbine 1 ein Ansaughaus 7, einen Verdichter 9, eine torusartige Ringbrennkammer 11 und eine Turbineneinheit 13 auf.Along the
Sowohl im Verdichter 9 als auch in der Turbineneinheit 13 sind Leitschaufeln 15 und Laufschaufeln 17 jeweils in Kränzen angeordnet. Im Verdichter 9 folgt einem Laufschaufelkranz 19 ein Leitschaufelkranz 21. Die Laufschaufeln 17 sind am Rotor 5 mittels Rotorscheiben 23 befestigt, wohingegen die Leitschaufeln 15 feststehend am Gehäuse 25 montiert sind.Both in the
Ebenso sind in der Turbineneinheit 13 Kränze 21 aus Leitschaufeln 15 angeordnet, denen jeweils in Richtung des Strömungsmediums gesehen ein Kranz aus Laufschaufeln 17 folgt.Wreaths 21 of
Die jeweiligen Schaufelprofile der Leitschaufeln 15 und der Laufschaufeln 17 erstrecken sich strahlenförmig in einem, sich durch Verdichter 9 und die Turbineneinheit 13 erstreckenden, ringförmigen Strömungskanal 27.The respective blade profiles of the guide vanes 15 and of the
Beim Betrieb der Gasturbine 1 wird vom Verdichter 9 Luft 29 durch das Ansaughaus 7 angesaugt und verdichtet. Am Austritt 31 des Verdichters 9 wird die verdichtete Luft zu den Brennern 33 geführt, welche auf einem Ring liegend an der Ringbrennkammer 11 vorgesehen sind. In den Brennern wird die verdichtete Luft 29 mit einem Brennmittel 35 vermischt, welches Gemisch in der Ringbrennkammer 11 zu einem Heißgas 37 verbrannt wird. Anschließend strömt das Heißgas 37 durch den Strömungskanal 27 der Turbineneinheit 13 an Leitschaufeln 15 und Laufschaufeln 17 vorbei. Dabei entspannt sich das Heißgas 37 an den Laufschaufeln 17 der Turbineneinheit 13 arbeitsleistend. Hierdurch wird der Rotor 5 der Gasturbine 1 in eine Drehbewegung mit seiner Nenndrehzahl, beispielsweise 3000 min-1 oder 3600 min-1, versetzt, welche zum Antrieb des Verdichters 9 und zum Antrieb einer nicht dargestellten Arbeits-Kraftmaschine oder Generators dient.During operation of the gas turbine 1 9
Oberhalb des Verdichtereintritts ist eine Vorrichtung 41 zur Einbringung, insbesondere Eindüsung einer Flüssigkeit 43, beispielsweise destilliertes Wasser, angeordnet. Die Vorrichtung 41 kann beispielsweise eine Verdichterwascheinrichtung 45 oder ein Eindüsrack für "Wet Compression" sein.Above the compressor inlet, a
Nach dem Betrieb der Gasturbine 1 wird das Verfahren zum Abkühlen der Gasturbine 1 durchgeführt. Dabei wird der Rotor 5 von einer nicht gezeigten Dreheinrichtung mit verminderter Drehzahl, beispielsweise im Bereich von 80 min-1 bis 160 min-1, vorzugsweise mit 120 min-1, angetrieben, um diese abzukühlen. Dabei pumpt der Rotor 5 bezogen auf den Betrieb der Gasturbine 1 eine vergleichsweise geringe Masse von Luft durch den Strömungskanal 27 der Gasturbine 1. Der Verdichter 9 saugt also einen vergleichsweise geringen Luftmassenstrom an und pumpt diesen durch den im Verdichter angeordneten Abschnitt des Strömungskanals 27, durch die Brennkammer und durch den in der Turbineneinheit 13 angeordneten Abschnitt des Strömungskanals 27.After operation of the gas turbine 1, the method for cooling the gas turbine 1 is performed. In this case, the
Der Abkühlvorgang wird weiter beschleunigt, indem während des Drehbetriebes, auch Abkühlbetrieb genannt, in den angesaugten Luftstrom zusätzlich destilliertes Wasser vor dem Verdichter 9 eingebracht wird. Die Verdampfung des Wassers kühlt den angesaugten Luftstrom, wodurch diese beim Durchströmen der Gasturbine 1 vermehrt die in der Gasturbine 1 gespeicherte Wärme aufnehmen und abtransportieren kann. Während der Wassereinbringung kann die Drehzahl des Rotors 5, beispielsweise auf 4% bis 10% der Nenndrehzahl, erhöht werden.The cooling process is further accelerated by additionally called distilled water in front of the
Ferner kann das Einbringen der Flüssigkeit 43 durch geeignete Mittel sowohl in der Ringbrennkammer 11 als auch in den Strömungskanals 27 der Turbineneinheit 13 erfolgen.Furthermore, the introduction of the liquid 43 can take place by suitable means both in the annular combustion chamber 11 and in the
