Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE COMBUSTION GAS TURBINES Industrial gas turbines (100kW to 150 MW) –Large, high thermal capacitance, high moment of inertia –Large units (above 10 MW) are 35-40% efficient –Used as peaking power plants (Run only intermittently) Microturbines –A.k.a. aero-derivative turbines –Made of thin, light, super-alloy material –Start fast, quick acceleration, easy adjust to load changes –Can handle many start-up/shutdown events –They are easy to fabricate & ship to a site –Efficiencies in excess of 40%
7
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Energy conversion Thermal energy converted to motion using turbine –Steam – Steam-Turbine-Generator –Combustion gases – Gas-Turbine-Generator –Turbine subject to device efficiency and Carnot efficiency Motion of turbine blades –Rotates the shaft of electric generator –Converts the rotational energy into electricity
8
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Faraday’s law where | | is the “electromotive force” (“emf” is also what we call “Voltage”) Easy way to get d /dt: Move conductor through magnetic field (or move mag. field)

Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Flux linkages and Faraday’s Law If magnetic flux links an N turn coil Where V is the voltage and is the flux linkage If all flux links all turns then =N
10
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Mnagnetic cores To ensure all magnetic flux flows through coils we employ “magnetic core” High magnetic permeability material Guide magnetic fields through electrical devices Usually made of ferromagnetic metal such as iron (steel)

13
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Multiple pole generator The following figure shows a 2-pole and a 4-pole synchronous generator
14
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Magnetic Excitation Rotor is electromagnet, contains “field windings”
15
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Rotation Speed The frequency of generated voltage in U.S. is 60 Hz –Europe, Japan = 50Hz Therefore, the shaft of generator must turn at a certain speed: N S is called the synchronous speed
16
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Increasing number of poles Increasing number of poles increases number of times magnetic flux changes per revolution of the rotor. Synchronous spped depends on number of poles (p) and output frequency (f) Allows shaft to turn slower (easier to build/maintain)
17
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Generating three phase power Three voltage sources with equal magnitude, but with an angle shift of 120
18
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Advantages of 3 Power Can transmit more power for same amount of wire (twice as much as single phase) Torque produced by 3 machines is constant Three phase machines use less material for same power rating Three phase machines start more easily than single phase machines
19
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Balanced 3 Phase (3 ) Systems 3 phase system has equal loads on each phase equal impedance on the lines connecting the generators to the loads Bulk power systems almost exclusively 3 –Single phase is used in low voltage, low power settings (e.g., residential, light commercial)

30
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Frequency Control Steady-state operation only occurs when the total generation exactly matches the total load plus the total losses –too much generation causes the system frequency to increase –too little generation causes the system frequency to decrease (e.g., loss of a generator) AGC is used to control system frequency

Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Power transmission Generation: 2.3 to 30 kV, Transmission: 138 kV to 765 kV (why?)
33
Advanced Materials and Sustainable Energy Lab CBEE Transformers Overview Power systems have many different voltages 765 kV down to 240/120 volts. Ability of simple change of voltage levels is the key advantage of AC over DC systems Transformers are used to transfer power between different voltage levels
