Increasing the Efficiency of Monar Gas-Steam Plants Based on the Use of Dual-Fuel Circuits

Abstract

The paper proposes new circuit solutions for dual-fuel monar gas-steam plants (DMGSP), which provide an increase in the efficiency of electricity production in these plants by replacing the use of natural gas and increasing the share of generating "energy" steam by including an additional source of generation in the technological scheme steam - "preboiler", in which steam generation occurs as a result of the use of chemical energy of low-grade solid or liquid fuels - substitutes for natural gas of low or medium calorific value. DMGSPs are considered in two variants of operation of their utilization circuit: under conditions of heating and evaporation of feeding water, or only heating of this water. The results of calculations of the effectiveness of the implementation of these schemes on the basis of a monar gas turbine plant in comparison with the basic installation "VODOLEY" and a gas turbine plant of a simple scheme are presented.
