Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090158702METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE LOAD VARIATIONS IN A GAS TURBINE - A method is described for controlling load variations in a gas turbine. The method comprises reducing the flow of gaseous fuel entering the combustor to a predefined minimum value, if an increase is observed in the rotation regime of said turbine above a predefined maximum value and a total reduction in the load, activating a selective feeding sequence of the burners if the turbine is operating in normal functioning or premixed flame mode, modifying the angulation of the adjustable stator vanes, in order to reduce the speed rate of the compressor, and opening one or more anti-surge valves and one or more overboard bleeds, in order to reduce the air flow at the inlet of the combustor.06-25-2009

20090158747METHOD FOR THE CONTROLLED PURGING OF THE FUEL FEEDING SYSTEM IN THE COMBUSTOR OF A GAS TURBINE - A method is described for the controlled purging of the fuel feeding system in the combustor of a gas turbine comprising at least one compressor, capable of compressing the air introduced into it through an inlet duct, at least one combustor, in which said compressed air is mixed and combusted with a gaseous fuel coming from a feeding duct, and at least one turbine, capable of transforming the energy of the combusted gas coming from said combustion chamber into work energy which can be exploited for activating one or more operating machines. The combustor is equipped with one or more burners, each equipped with at least one pilot injector and one or more main injectors for the adduction of the gaseous fuel inside the burner. The method comprises purging at least part of the main injectors and relative manifolds with a stream of gaseous fuel when the turbine is in diffusive flame functioning mode.06-25-2009

20100019574ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR AUXILIARY POWER SOURCE - A control system is provided for controlling a load powered by an auxiliary power source during an interruption in the utility power source and/or during a power failure. The control system of the present invention provides power to essential loads in a dwelling as predetermined by a user and/or per the user's real-time instructions as the needs of the user may change. Additionally, the control system of the present invention automatically controls non-essential loads in order to maintain the auxiliary power load below the maximum threshold. Furthermore, the control system of the present invention allows the user to manually override all the controlled loads in an emergency or when the needs of the user change. Additionally, the control system of the present invention allows outside triggers to change the priority of the loads in real-time and can automatically change the priority due to predetermined tasks already running.01-28-2010

20090160135LABYRINTH SEAL WITH REDUCED LEAKAGE FLOW BY GROOVES AND TEETH SYNERGISTIC ACTION - A labyrinth seal is disclosed having a stator, a plurality of teeth extending from the stator, each teeth having an end portion, and a rotor having an outside surface disposed next to the end portions of the plurality of teeth of the stator. The rotor further includes a plurality of grooves on the outside surface thereof, each groove is disposed between adjacent teeth of the stator, and a cavity formed between adjacent teeth and the each groove is configured to induce a vortex motion to a leakage flow from the high-pressure side to the low-pressure side of the seal so as to reduce a flow rate of the leakage flow. Methods of reducing a leakage flow in labyrinth seal are also disclosed.06-25-2009
