Operation of a gas turbine plant having a compressor and a turbine
View Patent ↗A method for operating a gas turbine plant having a compressor and a turbine, where a limit value of a guide blade adjustment for the compressor of the gas turbine is identified depending on at least one drive shaft speed of the gas turbine plant. For the at least one drive shaft speed, a maximum allowable turbine entry temperature corresponding to the limit value of the guide vane adjustment for the compressor or a maximum allowable temperature for the turbine of the gas turbine, which is dependent on the turbine entry temperature, is identified. The gas turbine is operated in consideration of the identified maximum allowable turbine entry temperature or the identified maximum allowable temperature.
1. A method for operating a gas turbine plant comprising a compressor and a turbine, the method comprising:
identifying a limit value of a guide blade adjustment for the compressor of the gas turbine plant associated with a drive shaft speed using first data that correlate limit values with control variables, wherein each control variable of the control variables is based on a respective drive shaft speed,
identifying a maximum allowable turbine entry temperature, or a maximum allowable temperature that correlates to a turbine entry temperature, for the identified limit value using second data that correlate the limit values with the maximum allowable turbine entry temperature or with the maximum allowable temperature, and
operating the gas turbine plant at the drive shaft speed without exceeding the maximum allowable turbine entry temperature or the maximum allowable temperature.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the limit value of the guide blade adjustment for the compressor of the gas turbine plant is selected to prevent an impairment of the operation of the gas turbine plant.
3. The method as claimed in claim 2 ,
wherein the impairment comprises compressor pumping or compressor icing-up.
4. The method as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the maximum allowable turbine entry temperature or the maximum allowable temperature is identified in further dependence on:
a compressor inlet temperature and/or
a compressor inlet moisture.
5. The method as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the method is performed respectively for a plurality of predefinable points in time.
6. The method as claimed in claim 5 ,
wherein the plurality of predefinable points in time lie within a turn-up operation of the gas turbine plant.
7. The method as claimed in claim 1 ,
further comprising controlling and regulating the operation of the gas turbine plant.
8. An arrangement for controlling a gas turbine plant comprising a compressor and a turbine, comprising:
an identification apparatus configured to perform the method as claimed in claim 1 .
9. A gas turbine plant comprising:
a compressor and a turbine, and
an arrangement as claimed in claim 8 .
10. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each control variable is further based on a compressor inlet temperature.
11. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the identified limit value applies to at least one row of guide blades downstream of a row of inlet guide vanes.
