CA 2254989

Convective cooling of turbine hot parts using a closed loop system is disclosed. Preferably, the present invention is applied to cooling the hot parts of combustion turbine power plants, and the cooling provided permits an increase in the inlet temperature and the concomitant benefits of increased efficiency and output. In preferred embodiments, methods and apparatus are disclosed wherein air is removed from the combustion turbine compressor (22, 26) and delivered to passages internal to one or more of a combustor and turbine hot parts (100). The air cools the combustor and turbine hot parts via convection and heat is transferred through the surfaces of the combustor and turbine hot parts.

Cette invention concerne un système à boucle fermée permettant d'assurer le refroidissement par convection des parties chaudes de turbines. Cette invention peut être utilisée, de préférence, dans le refroidissement des parties chaudes de centrales électriques utilisant des turbines à combustion. Ce refroidissement permet d'accroître la température d'entrée et offre les avantages concomitants d'une meilleure efficacité et d'une production plus élevée. Dans des modes de réalisation préférés, cette invention concerne des procédés et des appareils dans lesquels l'air est extrait du compresseur (22, 26) de la turbine à combustion, puis envoyé dans des passages à l'intérieur d'une ou de plusieurs parties chaudes (100) du brûleur et de la turbine. L'air va ainsi refroidir par convection les parties chaudes du brûleur et de la turbine, la chaleur étant transférée à travers les surfaces desdites parties.
