  • Patent number: 10830156
    Abstract: A fuel supply line system used for a gas turbine, including: fuel gas control valves used for controlling delivery to the gas turbine; a first line used for connecting the fuel gas source to the control valves; a second line used for connecting the control valves to the gas turbine; a monitoring device, configured to be used for determining the pressure inside the pipe at the outlet of the second line near said control valve; and a controller, configured to reduce the effective flow area of the pressure control valves or close the control valves when the determined pressure inside the pipe of the second line is greater than a predetermined pressure.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10371058
    Abstract: An operating method for a gas turbine by partial-load operation, includes setting of a power setpoint value for a predefined temperature value; determining the two operating curves as a function of temperature according to the power of the gas turbine, wherein the power setpoint value is located between said operating curves; determining the difference in power of said two operating curves at the substantially constant predetermined temperature value; determining a power deviation from the predetermined power setpoint value of one of the two operating curves at the substantially constant predetermined temperature value; calculating an interpolated operating curve deviation on the basis of the difference in power and the power deviation, wherein the temperature is a turbine outlet temperature or a computationally determined turbine inlet temperature.
