  • MICRO GAS TURBINE DESIGNED TO LIMIT HEAT LOSSES THEREFROM
    Publication number: 20240301820
    Abstract: A micro gas turbine equipped with a valve mechanism by means of which the operation of the micro gas turbine can be influenced and optimized, particularly by regulating a supply of hot gas from the cabinet and/or the exhaust of the micro gas turbine to an inlet side of the compressor. When the temperature of ambient air is relatively low, thermal output and thermal efficiency of a micro gas turbine decrease. The present micro gas turbine compensates for the loss of thermal efficiency.

  • Fuel/air supply device
    Patent number: 11549447
    Abstract: A fuel/air supply device including a fuel supply arrangement designed to convey fuel to a fuel outlet of the fuel/air supply device, a primary air supply arrangement designed to convey air to an air outlet of the fuel/air supply device, and a secondary air supply arrangement connecting the primary air supply arrangement to the fuel supply arrangement at a position upstream of a fuel compressor that is included in the fuel supply arrangement. The secondary air supply arrangement includes an air conduit that has a restricted portion for defining a relatively small air passage in the air conduit, and can be used for realizing a fuel/air mixture of low calorific value if so desired on the basis of a supply of air to the fuel without needing complex control measures.
