Abstract

This paper cites results of thermal testing of various types and designs of power-generating gas-turbine plants (GTP), which have been placed in service at electric-power stations in Russia in recent years. Thermotechnical and ecological indicators are codified and compiled for their characteristic regimes when operating on natural gas and liquid fuel. The operational economy is evaluated for the GTP on the whole, and operating characteristics are given for their components — compressor, turbine, and combustion chamber. The operating conditions of the GTP are examined for variable regimes, including a regime where a forward channel is used for the compressor. A comparative analysis is performed on the variation in the indicators of type-V94.2 GTP with allowance for their long-term operation.
