Abstract

For an enhancement of power generating system, the CH4/O2 fired gas turbine that is one kind of CBC (Closed Brayton Cycle) and the CH4/O2 fired steam turbine are proposed as a solution of high performance and non-CO2 emission into the environment of atmosphere. The combined plant of these two closed cycle systems results in the generating efficiency of 60.1% HHV at 1 350°C of firing temperature and 61.8% HHV at 1500°C. The CH4/O2 fired gas turbine can supplant a conventional open cycle gas turbine in a combined cycle power plant. On the contrary, the CH4/O2 fired steam turbine can be used with a conventional open cycle gas turbine. These two applications are expected as the modification of conventional combined cycle to achieve the reduction of CO2 emission or repowering.
