METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING THE COMBUSTION IN A GASTURBINE

摘要

A method and apparatus are described for controlling the combustion in a gas turbine. The method includes measuring , by means of one or two calorimeters, the temperature, calorific value and relative density of a gaseous fuel in order to determine the Wobbe index, comparing the Wobbe index value measured with a predefined Wobbe index value for the gaseous fuel and regulating the temperature of the gaseous fuel by means of at least one heat exchanger in order to reach the predefined Wobbe index value. The method may also include using a second gaseous fuel, hav-ing a different Wobbe index from the gaseous fuel, or a fuel obtained by mixing the gaseous fuel and the second gaseous fuel, according to arbitrary proportions and vari-able with time.
