  • Combined brayton/rankine cycle gas and steam turbine generating system operated in two closed loops
    Patent number: 10436074
    Abstract: A combined cycle dual closed loop electric generating system, having a gas turbine assembly (having a combustion chamber, a compressor, a first pump, a first driveshaft, a gas turbine and a first generator) and a steam turbine assembly (having a second pump, a second driveshaft, a steam turbine and a second generator). The first portion of the working fluid circulates through the gas turbine assembly and a first heat exchanger. The second portion of the working fluid circulates through the steam turbine assembly and the first heat exchanger. The first heat exchanger transfers a first heat energy from the gas turbine loop to the steam turbine loop. The gas turbine assembly generates a first portion of an electric output. The steam turbine assembly generates a second portion of the electric output.
