Title:
INTERMEDIATE COOLING DEVICE FOR GAS TURBINE AND GAS TURBINE USING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/014401
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A gas turbine (1) comprises: multiple stage compressors (2, 3); a combustor (4) for injecting a fuel into air compressed by the compressors and combusting the fuel; and a turbine (5) driven by the combustion gas from the combustor. In the gas turbine, a heat exchanger (7) is installed between the compressor stages. The heat exchanger is used for heating the working gas of a Stirling engine (8) serving as an intermediate cooling device and is disposed in a flow path of compressed air compressed by the compressors to directly exchange heat between the compressed air and the working gas. This makes it possible to effectively use the waste heat of the gas turbine and to provide a relatively small-type and light weight intermediate cooling device, the leakage failure of which even does not pose a problem to the operation of the gas turbine. In the case of an aircraft gas turbine, a low-temperature-side heat exchanger (11) of the Stirling engine is disposed so that a low temperature atmosphere passes therethrough.
