Abstract: Multifuel burner having outlet locations for a plurality of fuels respectively connected with associated fuel feeding spaces arranged at a head of the burner, at least one of the fuel feeding spaces being for fuel gas and encompassing a plurality of outlet nozzles arranged annularly in a nozzle head, includes tube conduits connecting the outlet nozzles for fuel gas to the respective fuel feeding space associated therewith; the tube conduits having means for compensating for expansion of the tube conduits; the outlet nozzles having discharge openings directed outwardly at an angle of 20.degree. to 80.degree.

Abstract: A turbo-machine plant comprises a gas turbine connected to a synchronous electrical machine by way of an over-riding clutch and a compressor connected to the electrical machine by way of a disconnectible coupling. The machine group is operable in two different modes. In one mode, the electrical machine functions as a motor for driving the compressor which delivers air to an air storage chamber and the gas turbine is automatically disconnected from the electrical machine by the over-riding clutch. To change over to the other operational mode the power absorption of the compressor is first reduced to a low level, and the gas turbine is then brought up to synchronous speed and becomes coupled to the electrical machine which then operates for current generation.

Abstract: A gas-turbine plant of the air-storage type comprises a multi-stage gas-turbine having high and low pressure sections, a flow medium heating device located between the high and low pressure sections of the gas-turbine, a dynamoelectric machine coupled to the gas-turbine, a compressor also coupled to the dynamoelectric machine and an air-storage tank connected between the compressor outlet and the inlet to a heat exchanger heated by exhaust gas from the gas-turbine and through which the medium flows to the high pressure section of the gas-turbine.
