A method for operating a turbine unit having at least two partial turbines, wherein a steam volumetric flow is conducted by a steam transfer device from the partial turbine arranged upstream to a partial turbine arranged downstream, which is connected after the partial turbine arranged upstream, wherein a pressure level within the steam transfer device is manipulated in accordance with a load range in which the turbine unit is operated, in such a way that the exhaust steam of the partial turbine arranged upstream remains superheated in the event of operation of the turbine unit in a partial-load range below the IGV point and/or in the event of a quick increase in the partial load.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INCREASING THE RESPONSIVENESS OF A DUCT FIRED, COMBINED CYCLE, POWER GENERATION PLANT
A system and method for increasing the responsiveness of a duct fired, combined cycle power generation plant (12) via operating one or more gas turbine engines (14) at a part load condition less than 100 percent load, one or more steam turbine engines (16), and one or more supplemental burners (18) providing additional heat to a heat recovery steam generator (20) upstream from the steam turbine engine (16) is disclosed. The combination of the steam turbine engines (16) and supplemental burners (18) operating together with gas turbine engines (14) at a part load condition enables the system to quickly change output to accommodate changes in output demand of the duct fired, combined cycle power generation plant (12). By operating the one or more gas turbine engines (14) at a part load condition, the gas turbine engines (14) are able to be used to increase net output of the combined cycle power generation plant (12) faster than relying on increasing output via duct firing.
