  • Patent number: 8925327
    Abstract: A turbine power plant employs a radial staging of a liquid injection system to provide a uniform fluid distribution, for use in wet compression. The liquid injection system can be actuated to inject liquid to various radial regions of an air intake case of the turbine power plant. During a stage one actuation, liquid is directed to a first radial region of the air intake case. During a stage two actuation, liquid is directed to the first radial region and also to a second radial region of the air intake case.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 6, 2012
    Date of Patent: January 6, 2015
    Assignee: Rolls-Royce Power Engineering PLC

  • Patent number: 8291714
    Abstract: A turbine power plant employs a radial staging of a liquid injection system to provide a uniform fluid distribution, for use in wet compression. The liquid injection system includes a hub to be coupled to an air intake case of a turbine power plant. An annular ring assembly is spaced radially outwardly from the hub. Spray bars are spoked about the hub and the annular ring. The spray bars each include a body portion having an inner end coupled to the hub and an outer end coupled to the ring assembly. The spray bars each have at least two nozzle assemblies along the body portion. The spray bars each define at least two liquid supply manifolds each having an inlet at the annular ring assembly and an outlet at an associated nozzle assembly. The liquid supply manifolds each supply liquid to one or more associated nozzle assemblies.
