System und Verfahren zum Liefern von Brennstoff an eine Gasturbine

摘要

A system for supplying fuel to a gas turbine includes piping containing fuel at a pressure greater than approximately 500 psi. A pressure reducing valve connected downstream of the piping reduces the pressure of the fuel to less than approximately 200 psi. A heat exchanger connected downstream of the pressure reducing valve heats the wet saturated fuel or dry saturated fuel to produce a superheated fuel. A control valve connected downstream of the heat exchanger reduces the pressure of the superheated fuel to less than approximately 50 psi. A method for supplying superheated fuel to a gas turbine includes receiving fuel having a pressure greater than approximately 500 psi and reducing the pressure to less than approximately 200 psi. The method further includes separating gaseous fuel from liquid fuel, reducing the pressure of the gaseous fuel to less than approximately 50 psi, and flowing the superheated fuel to the gas turbine.
