Electric Power Distribution for Fracturing Operation

Providing electric power distribution for fracturing operations comprising receiving, at a transport, electric power from a mobile source of electricity at a first voltage level and supplying, from the transport, the electric power to a fracturing pump transport at the first voltage level using only a first, single cable connection. The first voltage level falls within a range of 1,000 V to 35 kilovolts. The transport also supplies electric power to a second transport at the first voltage level using only a second, single cable connection.

Heating materials through co-generation of heat and electricity
10793780 · 2020-10-06 · ·

Systems and methods for heating material through cogeneration of thermal and electrical energy can include a heat source and an electric generator configured to produce hot exhaust gas and electricity. One or more heating conduits can carry the hot exhaust gas to one or more bodies of material. The electric generator can at least partially power one or more electric heaters configured to reheat the hot exhaust gas after a portion of heat has been transferred from the hot exhaust gas to the one or more bodies of material.

Method for liquid air and gas energy storage
10767515 · 2020-09-08 ·

A method for liquid air and gas energy storage (LAGES) which integrates the processes of liquid air energy storage (LAES) and regasification of liquefied natural gas (LNG) at the import terminal through the exchange of thermal energy between the streams of air and natural gas (NG) in their gaseous and liquid states and includes harnessing the LNG as an intermediate heat carrier between the air streams being regasified and liquefied, recovering a compression heat from air liquefier for LNG regasification and utilizing a cold thermal energy of liquid air being regasified for reliquefaction of a part of send-out NG stream with its return to LNG terminal.

The hyperbaric load control for a power plant is an energy storage device used to regulate the tangent velocity of a gas turbine. Specifically, the hyperbaric load control for a power plant: a) releases previously stored energy in the form of supplemental electrical energy to compensate for an energy deficit created by an operating condition where the electrical energy demanded by the electric load is greater than the energy provided by the gas turbine; and, b) absorbs and stores the excess energy created by an operating condition where the energy transferred to the electric generator from the gas turbine is greater than the electric energy demanded by the electric load. The hyperbaric load control for a power plant comprises an electric motor, a compressor, a high pressure gas tank, a supplemental turbine, a supplemental electric generator, and a control system.

Torsional damping for generators

An apparatus and method for a generator assembly for a drive train such as a rotatable turbine engine assembly. The generator assembly includes at least first and second generators mechanically coupled to the drive train. First and second dampers are operably coupled to the first and second generators, respectively, to selectively damp the first and second generators. Damping the first and second generators can reduce or eliminate both common mode and differential mode torsional oscillations from the generators to the drive train.
