Turbine Power Plants refer to the energy station that uses fluid kinetic energy to drive the turbine to rotate and drive the alternator to generate electricity. The core principle is energy conversion, which involves the transfer of kinetic energy through the interaction between turbine blades and fluids, ultimately completing the conversion from thermal/kinetic energy to electrical energy.
Classification of Turbine Power Plants
1. Turbine power stations can be classified according to the type of working medium, including:
1.1 Gas Turbine Power Plant: refers to an energy station that uses gas or liquid as fuel, converts it into mechanical energy through a turbine, and then drives alternator to generate electricity and heat.
1.2 Steam Turbine Power Plant: refers to an energy station that uses a steam turbine as the prime mover to convert steam heat energy into mechanical energy to drive alternator to generate electrical and thermal energy.
1.3 Hydroelectric Power Plant: refer to the energy stations that uses the strong water flow generated by water level difference as kinetic energy to drive the turbine to convert hydraulic energy into mechanical energy, and then drives the alternator to generate electrical energy.
1.4 Wind Power Plant: refer to the energy stations that uses the wind to drive the wind turbine to convert the wind energy into mechanical energy to drive the alternator to generate electric energy. Wind energy belongs to renewable energy, pollution-free, and has broad application prospects.
2. Classification according to structure:
The Power Plants can be classified into the Simple Cycle Power Plant, Cogeneration Power Plant, Combined Cycle Power Plant, and Hybrid Power Plant.
2.1 Simple Cycle Power Plant (SCPP), Only for power generation. SCPP is consist of a single or multiple gas turbine (or I.C.E) driven generator sets. The main components of the gas turbine are the air compressor, the combustor and the turbine, which drives both the air compressor and an electric power generator. We can provide flexible and reliable solutions to enable the grid to respond quickly to flexible load demands. The focus is on robust operation, high availability, fast start-up as well as start reliability and the capability for quick transient load responses. SCPP are often used in remote areas as decentralized local power generation sets and as emergency or peaking units.
2.2 Cogeneration Power Plant, also known as Combined Heat and Power (CHP), refers to a group of proven technologies that operate together for the concurrent generation of electricity and useful heat in a process that is generally much more energy-efficient than the separate generation of electricity and useful heat. Widely used in Distributed Energy Resources projects making an important contribution to the global energy demand.
2.3 Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) refer to the Combined cycle power generation system composed of gas turbines, generators, boilers, steam or heating type steam turbine. The system converts the waste gas discharged by the gas turbine into steam through the waste heat boiler, and then the steam is injected into the steam turbine to generate electricity, or the spent steam can be used to heating after generation.
2.4 Hybrid Power Plant (HPP) refer to a kind of power generation system combining two types of energy, which common form is hybrid power generation combined by renewable energy sources (wind power, hydroelectricity, solar energy, ocean energy, etc.) and fossil power. Renewable energy sources hybridized with liquid fuel or gas fuel engines are the perfect synergy to take the advantages of both electricity sources. The renewable energy share delivers free electricity with a green footprint and highly efficient engines care of reliable base load supply or flexibly available backup for obtaining a continuous power output.
As the core facility for energy conversion, turbine power stations convert fluid energy (such as steam, water, wind, etc.) into mechanical energy through turbines, which then drive generators to generate electrical energy. They are widely used in traditional and new energy fields. In recent years, with technological iteration and scenario expansion, turbine power stations have shown new trends in patent innovation, intelligent control, and multi energy adaptation.
