10 POWER GENERATION PRODUCTS CATALOG I Power Plant Excellence POWER PLANT EXCELLENCE Peak-Performing Products for Optimal Power Plant Systems GE s power generation customers power the world. Whether it s generating electricity for consumers or powering industrial growth, the value they deliver comes from building and operating the most cost effective and reliable power plants. And that is GE s mission when it comes to power generation to offer peak-performing products and to create the best performing power plant systems in the world. GE s gas turbine power plants draw upon a legacy of more than 60 years of experience. Over that time, heavy duty gas turbines have evolved from relatively small, simple peaking machines to much larger engines used in both simple and combined cycle applications. As gas turbine output, firing temperature, and efficiency have increased, so too have the size, efficiency, and versatility of the power plant system. GE continues to develop materials, cooling, aerodynamics, combustion, and controls technologies to advance the very products that serve as the foundation of these applications. GE s comprehensive and integrated plant approach includes a customized power system with gas turbines, steam turbines, generators, controls, HRSGs and accessory systems. This enables GE to meet a diverse range of customer operational needs and applications from industrial and utility scale power, to combined heat and power (CHP), district heating (DH), integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC), and integrated water and power production (IWPP). So, whether the need is for a large baseload, high efficiency plant with fast starting and ramping, or an industrial cogeneration plant that uses nonstandard fuels, GE can create a solution to fit your needs. Power plant configurations are specific to each customer s needs and economic criteria, as well as operating and installation limitations. The right power plant balances the following considerations: Requirements and constraints capture the plant mission and goals, the interface of the plant to infrastructure, and location-based constraints. They are broken down into six major categories: operations, site, fuel, grid, environmental, and schedule. Physical implementation considers how the plant is built, operated, and maintained. The implementation methods must consider the functional needs of the plant while also considering the plant requirements and constraints, such as logistics. Function refers to the operation and interaction of the five major plant subsystems, which are discussed later in this document: the topping cycle, the bottoming cycle, heat rejection, electrical conversion, and plant integration. Segmenting the plant system in this way helps drive performance and cost. 8

11 POWERing 2015 While every power plant is unique, there are three categories of plant configuration: Applications Simple Cycle Single Shaft Multi-Shaft Peaking power Emergent power demands (can later be converted to combined cycle) Mechanical drive Mid-merit to baseload Grid connected, utility scale Combined heat and power (CHP) Mid-merit to baseload Grid connected, utility scale Combined heat and power (CHP) Advantages Lowest CAPEX Shortest construction cycle Easily scalable for growth Smallest footprint/highest power density (MW/m2) Easily scalable to future required output Lower CAPEX and lower $/kw compared to multi-shaft Highest efficiency entitlement Better part load efficiency Redundancy Phased construction flexibility Can accommodate large steam extractions Disadvantages Lower efficiency compared to combined cycle Longer construction cycle than simple cycle Higher CAPEX and higher $/kw compared to single shaft plant Higher specific emissions 9

12 POWER GENERATION PRODUCTS CATALOG I Power Plant Excellence PLANT INTEGRATION HEAT REJECTION Plant Offerings ELECTRICAL CONVERSION CONTROLS TOPPING CYCLE BOTTOMING CYCLE In addition to typical power plant features, the following are options customers commonly choose. GE s application engineering teams can configure these and other options to accommodate most any requirement: Power augmentation through supplemental firing in the HRSG. Power augmentation through air inlet cooling. Nonstandard fuel capability, including heavy fuel oil. Indoor, outdoor, or semi-outdoor installation. Phased combined cycle power plant construction, with or without a bypass exhaust stack. Customized installation scope (from equipment, to engineered equipment package, to turnkey). Single or multi-pressure steam cycles, both reheat and non-reheat. Axial, downward, or side steam exhaust. Breaking the Plant Down to Five Parent Systems GE s simple and combined cycle power plants are flexible in their operation and include features such as fast starting and load ramping, low turndown, and high full- and part-load efficiencies. This flexibility delivers improved plant economics, including: Reduced capital costs. Reduced operation and maintenance costs. Shorter installation times to reduce installation costs and produce revenue faster. Improved reliability and availability. As an example, the auxiliary systems for GE s HA plants are largely pre-configured modules that are factory tested, fully assembled, drop-in enclosures that lower field connections, piping, and valves. This translates to a simpler installation that reduces field schedule and installation quality risks while improving overall installation times up to 25% quicker compared to lesser F-class plants. GE s integrated systems approach includes analysis and development of not only the power generation equipment components but also the balance of plant systems. Performance and cost are measured at both the component and plant level to increase customer value. GE accomplishes this by segmenting the plant into five major systems. At the heart of each system is GE s power generation offerings: gas turbines, steam turbines, generators, and controls. Each system, and GE s associated power generation offerings, will be discussed in the subsequent sections of this catalog. Topping cycle The gas turbine and its dedicated systems. Bottoming cycle The steam turbine, HRSG, condensate, feed water and associated systems. Heat rejection The systems that reject heat to the environment. Electrical The systems that produce and export power to the grid or supply power to plant equipment. Plant integration The systems that support the main plant equipment in converting fuel to electrical power. 10

14 POWER GENERATION PRODUCTS CATALOG I Topping Cycle Offerings TOPPING CYCLE OFFERINGS Overview of Scope and Considerations Comprised of the gas turbine and supporting accessory systems, the topping cycle is the most significant and technologically challenging step in the conversion of fuel to electrical power. The topping cycle contributes to more than two thirds of a power plant s total output and defines combined cycle efficiency entitlement based on operating temperature capability. GE maintains a plant-level view while focusing on the key considerations for topping cycle development: performance, emissions, reliability, and cost. Each of GE s topping cycle configurations strike a balance between pressure ratio, firing temperature, and airflow to achieve optimum plant performance at world-class emissions levels. Most importantly, GE recognizes that these factors, much like plant requirements and operating circumstances, vary greatly from customer to customer. As such, GE engages the customer early on in the development process to gain an intimate understanding of needs and wants. This ensures that the topping cycle delivered will provide value to the customer, no matter what the application. The heart of a combined cycle power plant is the topping cycle. 12

48 POWER GENERATION PRODUCTS CATALOG I Topping Cycle Offerings FUELS AND COMBUSTION Technology Leadership With more than 4,500 heavy duty gas turbines installed around the world, GE knows the challenges faced by operators volatile fuel prices, variability in fuel sources, increasingly strict environmental regulations, and the need for more power generation flexibility. GE continually evolves its proven combustion systems, including the related accessory system hardware, to help customers enhance fuel utilization, reduce fuel costs, and enhance revenues. As a result, GE s versatile gas turbines operate on a variety of fuels, including gases with a wide range of heating values, like steel mill gases, syngas, lean methane fuels, natural gas, higher order hydrocarbons, and high hydrogen fuels. They also accommodate liquid fuels, including refined products, such as distillate and naphtha, and a range of ash bearing fuels, including light, medium, and heavy crude oils, as well as HFO. Utilization of a these fuels is important for a wide range of applications, including refineries, petrochemical plants, oil and gas production, and steel mills. Combustion System Fundamentals Modern gas turbines that utilize a wide variety of gaseous and liquid fuels must operate within a series of constraints, with NOx and CO emissions being the most recognizable. The formation of NOx compounds is dependent on the temperature of the reaction in the combustor. If fuel and air are allowed to mix in a stoichiometric proportion (a balanced chemical reaction), they will burn in a diffusion flame, similar to the flame of a candle, near the highest possible temperature of the reaction. A consequence of burning fuel at a high flame temperature is the production of a large amount of NOx. However, if extra air is introduced into the reaction, the resulting lean mixture will burn with a lower flame temperature and the reaction will generate significantly less NOx. This is known as lean combustion. In addition to developing combustion technologies that reduce emissions, GE s advanced gas turbine combustion systems mitigate the potential risk of combustion dynamics while simultaneously meeting other key operability requirements. The overall system configuration is a balance of parameters that require a deep domain expertise in fuel and combustion technology.

52 POWER GENERATION PRODUCTS CATALOG I Bottoming Cycle Offerings BOTTOMING CYCLE OFFERINGS Overview of Scope and Considerations GE s bottoming cycles convert gas turbine exhaust energy to electrical power and heat energy (in CHP application) in the most cost conscious and economical ways. Understanding that the bottoming cycle represents about 70% of the plant cost however only provides about 33% of the plant power output, GE s configurations consider a multitude of operating conditions to provide the highest customer value in terms of performance and cost. Major bottoming cycle system components include the HRSG and steam turbine. These components can be arranged in an array of configurations to provide a system that balances fuel cost, duty cycle, and other economic and operability requirements. System configurations include single pressure, multiple pressure, reheat and non-reheat cycles, as well as single and multiple shaft arrangements with the gas turbine. GE s bottoming cycles typically utilize unfired, drum type HRSGs that feature modular construction with a finned-tube heat transfer surface and natural circulation evaporators. Options for power augmentation with supplemental firing, post gas turbine emissions reduction, and simple cycle bypass operation are also available within the HRSG. Each gas turbine exhausts to a dedicated HRSG that meets specific combined cycle system operating requirements that are defined by GE s rigorous specification. GE s broad product line of steam turbines complements the gas turbine offerings and provides flexibility to deliver world-class performance and value for almost every bottoming cycle.

55 POWERing 2015 HRSG CONSIDERATIONS The HRSG is a critical component in the bottoming cycle of a combined cycle power plant, providing the thermodynamic link between GE s gas turbines and steam turbines. GE s combined cycle power plants utilize HRSGs with small diameter, high fin density heat transfer sections matched to the fuels and emissions equipment requirements. HRSGs operating in the sub-critical pressure range utilize a drum-type, natural circulation evaporator with a long established pedigree for reliable operation. For those configurations operating in the super-critical pressure range, GE will utilize either forced circulation or once-through steam generator sections. Regardless of the HRSG configuration, the proper engineering is required to assure desired operating flexibility and capability. Since the HRSG is configured based on bottoming cycle application, there are numerous options that can be incorporated to meet project specific requirements such as supplementary firing, SCR for NOx abatement, CO catalyst for emissions reduction, and exhaust gas bypass systems for applications that require simple cycle gas turbine operation in a combined cycle installation. GE S HRSG Configuration Includes: Flexible tube support systems to enable fast startup and load following capabilities. Geometry, wall thickness, and materials are carefully selected with a particular focus on high-pressure superheaters and reheaters. High grade steels reduce drum wall thickness. Multiple drum penetrations in lieu of single penetrations decrease thermal stress in critical connections. Liberally sized steam drums for operating conditions, startup and shutdown transients, and low pressure drums for an operational buffer in the event of a boiler feed pump trip. Fuel flexibility features such as economizer bypass, pressure controls, and economizer recirculation systems enable management of component temperatures above water and exhaust gas dewpoint. Stack closure dampers retain heat to facilitate rapid restart following overnight and weekend shutdowns. 53

64 POWER GENERATION PRODUCTS CATALOG I Heat Rejection Considerations HEAT REJECTION SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS Overview and Comparison The heat rejection system is a major consideration for the engineering of the bottoming cycle and has a significant impact on overall plant efficiency. The site characteristics determine what type of condenser and heat rejection system is employed. Condensers are heat exchangers that operate at sub-atmospheric pressures (vacuum) to condense steam turbine exhaust back into feedwater for the HRSG. A colder cooling fluid creates a better vacuum allowing more steam expansion through the turbine which delivers increased power output. Condensers can be water or air cooled. Water cooled condensers are further divided into those served directly with once through sea, river, or lake water and those cooled with water in mechanical or natural draft cooling towers. Applications Once-Through Cooling Tower Air Cooled Coastal or waterside locations without access restrictions Locations where sufficient make-up water is available Locations where water access is prohibited or uneconomical Advantages Enables highest plant efficiency Enables lowest condenser pressures Smallest footprint Lowest cost Plant location not limited to waterside sites Better performance than air cooled Lower cost than air cooled Use of air eliminates the corrosion, filtration, treatment and other burdens associated with water Fewest siting and regulatory restrictions Disadvantages Requires direct access to a body of water Highest regulatory burdens Requires significant amounts of make-up water Large footprint Least efficient Ambient conditions impact size and effectiveness Largest footprint Highest cost 62

The water cooled generator combines the architecture of a hydrogen cooled unit with direct armature winding cooling via deionized water passed through the stator bars. This enhances power density, which provides higher output and industry-leading efficiency in a smaller package. Most GE generators can be configured for multi-shaft or single-shaft operation with line side terminals exiting the machine in either top or bottom arrangements, depending on what best suits plant configuration and layout. All combined cycle generators applied to gas turbine prime movers have provisions to accommodate static start features to achieve plant startup rates. When considering generator performance it is important to look at how reactances handle system transients and protect plant equipment. To do this, accessories are configured to meet plant performance while reducing the size of these components. Regional considerations, including fuel costs, local environmental conditions or lack of hydrogen availability, will drive generator cooling medium decisions. Interconnect agreements and grid characteristics and the connection point must also be considered. Plant configurations such as steam turbine exhaust direction will establish power train centerline heights and decisions on the most appropriate configuration. All of the combined cycle integration decisions also take into account ease of installation and maintainability of the equipment to provide a healthy return to the customer throughout the plant s entire life cycle. The GE generator product line is divided into three classifications based on the cooling method: water, hydrogen, and air. 65

76 POWER GENERATION PRODUCTS CATALOG I Plant Integration and Controls GE CONTROLS AND SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS Overview of Control System Architecture Modern power plants provide far more data and create far more actionable information, making them much more efficient than in the past. Advanced sensors and smarter instrumentation provide additional opportunities to utilize big data in the form of informational and actionable analytics. Leveraging and driving these trends, GE has grown its portfolio of controls, software, and analytics offerings to meet the needs of the digital power plants of the future. GE has been making control systems for more than 100 years and has been providing integrated plant controls for a broad range of applications since The industry continues to demand higher plant-level performance and operator efficiency. To support these needs, the modular architecture of the Mark VIe Control System allows for mission-specific turbine control within the same environment as an open plant control. The single platform enables comprehensive, integrated automation for improved performance and reliability. As illustrated below, there are various elements throughout the power plant that make up the control system infrastructure. These elements work together to create the central nervous system of the power plant. GE focuses on intuitiveness, simplicity, and efficiency, offering everything from HMIs to mobile apps to make controls easier and more convenient.

77 POWERing Turbine Control Panel GE provides turbine control panels for all gas turbines and steam turbines as part of the standard offering. The brains of the turbine control are the CPU modules, while the turbine control connects to the rest of the plant instrumentation through its I/O interface modules. The Mark VIe Control System includes modular components with an Ethernet backbone, which allows for a long life cycle; technology is infused into the platform as needed. Turbine control panels are customized to meet the specific needs of each application, particularly controller redundancy and I/O type. GE has developed an intelligent dual control architecture to replace triple modular redundant (TMR) on specific gas turbine frame sizes and, where applicable, on associated steam turbines. The philosophy of intelligent dual is to use dual CPUs and dual I/O networks, and to let sensor and device redundancy be determined by application needs. For protection and safety systems, sensor redundancy remains triplicated to enhance tripping reliability. For many other instruments in the power plant, sensor redundancy can be reduced with the inclusion of a surrogate model and soft fault detection in software without impacting reliability. Some of the benefits of an intelligent dual system are lower installed cost, lower maintenance cost (less equipment to calibrate and maintain), improved running reliability, lower failure rate, I/O density reduction in the control panels, and overall simplification of firmware related to controlling dual platforms. 6B.03 6F.01 6F.03 7E.03 7F.04 7F.05 7HA.01 7HA.02 9E.03 9E.04 9F.03 9F.05 9HA.01 9HA.02 TMR X X X X X O O O X X X X X O Dual X X X X X Standard offering O Optional offering Traditionally, all instruments in the power plant were hard-wired back to the control panel. As more smart devices and instrumentation became available, digital bus interfaces were incorporated. These interfaces provide a lower overall installed cost due to the significant reduction of wires and terminations; they also simplify the commissioning process. All of the below listed digital bus protocols provide significantly more diagnostics directly to the controller, allowing for faster troubleshooting and preventative maintenance. CANopen is a fast digital bus protocol used when electrically actuated valves are included in the power plant configuration.

This is not a turbine control on its own, however, it can be applied for SIL certification of specific safety-critical protection loops within a turbine control or burner management, emergency shutdown, and fire and gas applications in the balance of plant. The Mark VIeS Safety Controller is essentially a locked configuration that does not permit changes to the safety-certified hardware or software, while the main Mark VIe turbine control can be reprogrammed and configured as needed for each site. Mark VIeS Safety Controller and Mark VIe Control Systems share a common architecture and software tools to simplify plant operations and maintenance. 75

Data from individual rotors is used to validate full-train torsional models and mitigate risk of torsional resonance. Field Ventilation Lab This stationary test rig validates new ventilation schemes for generator fields. DC current is passed through copper field turns while ventilation gas cools the turns. This capability allows for the testing of new ventilation patterns to potentially allow uprates to both new and existing units with field rewinds. Control Simulation and Virtualization New Product Development Simulation is an integral part of manufacturing at GE. Before a new product or plant is built, a virtual version is created using GE virtual controller technology and process models. The product/plant is then operated in various modes to validate performance. Customers are invited to witness their entire system operate in a simulated environment. Project Simulation Control system acceptance tests use GE s scalable simulation platform. Virtual simulators on a desktop or in the cloud are used to validate quality and completeness for a smooth install. GE s passion for simulation, virtual simulator technology, and scalable testing platform promotes quality and complete control solutions. Customer Simulation and Training GE simulator technology has been provided to customers in training simulators. Saudi Electric Company (SEC) purchased a GE simulator that accurately represented their combined cycle power plant. SEC identified operation and control issues during simulator development and before plant startup; those issues were corrected without a delay in plant commissioning. Armature End Winding Lab Thermal and mechanical cycling of full scale end winding support systems provide the opportunity to evaluate new materials, support systems, and configurations. Armature Development Lab This lab tests new armature bar and slot support systems at current levels up to 17,000 amps or bar forces upwards of 200 lbf per inch of stator bar length. Generator Thermal Cycling and Endurance Test Stand A $14 million upgrade to the existing generator test stand has added the capability for full-scale rapid, thermal cyclic duty and endurance testing with capabilities including, but not limited to, open circuit, short circuit, and sudden short circuit. This capability delivers proven operability and performance of new generator models including the latest structured product line series of generators before they enter commercial service. In addition to housing the drive train, the test facility includes control room and data centers, as well as an onsite remote nerve center area, all connected by an advanced communication system that facilitates thorough data collection during each test. 83

89 POWERing 2015 Steam Turbine OpFlex Technology Descriptions OpFlex Steam Turbine Agility Startup Solutions Enhanced Automatic Turbine Startup with Rotor Stress Control Modified Reverse Flow Improved Acceleration Control Inlet Pressure Control Setpoint Tracking An Enhanced Automatic Turbine Startup (ATS) routine provides a fully automated steam turbine startup from ready to start conditions, bringing the machine from turning gear operation to Inlet Pressure Control (IPC) with a push of a single button. Temperature references are generated within the steam turbine unit controller and integrated with the temperature matching function of the gas turbine unit controller to provide a fully automated temperature ramping solution. For opposed flow HP-IP steam turbines, Modified Reverse Flow improves the ability to avoid radial-rub-induced vibration caused by asymmetric heating of the shell during colder starts. For large steam turbines in 2x1 and 3x1 combined cycle configuration, an improved ST acceleration algorithm provides better accommodation for low steam production starts when operating with one gas turbine. Inlet Pressure Control (IPC) Setpoint Tracking automatically adjusts the IPC setpoint to provide the correct setting as the plant is maneuvered to meet dispatch demand, while retaining its responsiveness to pressure disturbances. The main control valve(s) are open as far as possible to avoid unnecessary throttling, and be in a better position to respond to a GT/HRSG trip, thereby avoiding a cascading trip of a second HRSG. Eliminating unnecessary throttling benefits the plant through improved long-term valve reliability and greater output. Plant Control Software Technology Descriptions HRSG OpFlex Startup Solutions Advanced Attemperator Control Advanced SCR Ammonia Control Model-based control principles enable feed-forward control loops to proactively adjust HRSG attemperator flows during GT startup and load changes, enabling more accurate regulation of steam temperature during all modes of operation, thus reducing instability and the risk of a plant trip. This enables shorter start times, avoids runbacks, reduces HRSG wear and tear and allows reliable operation at higher steam temperatures to improve plant heat rate and output. Advanced SCR Ammonia Control utilizes model based control with SCR inlet NOx and ammonia injection and catalyst system models in conjunction with exhaust stack measurement and control, ensuring minimal ammonia slip, thus reducing NOx emissions during startup and normal operation. Plant Operability Solutions Rapid Response Plant One Button Start Rapid Response combined cycle system engineering is a GE plant solution delivering enhanced operating flexibility while maintaining state of the art steady state performance. Rapid Response breaks the links that cause the steam cycle to restrict gas turbine startup in a conventional combined cycle plant. The gas turbine in a Rapid Response combined cycle plant starts and loads rapidly to a low emissions state like a simple cycle turbine. The steam turbine and bottoming cycle then follows to provide combined cycle output and efficiency in as little as 30 minutes. Rapid Response combined cycle system engineering is an extended scope product, available when GE provides the gas turbine(s), steam turbine(s), generator(s), heat recovery steam generator(s) (HRSG) with continuous emissions measurement (CEMS), plant control system (DCS), and key enabling balance of plant (BOP) equipment. GE also provides overall System Integration. GE one button plant auto start capability is available as part of an extended scope project. Control software sequencing of all required plant components, including GT, ST, Generator, HRSG and BOP is included. Necessary plant components like shutoff valves are equipped with remote actuators to respond to sequencing software commands. Utilizing group control, the plant places itself into a ready to start condition from a normal shutdown condition in preparation for auto start. Although termed one button, the operator can elect to include breakpoints at key steps in the plant startup like generator synchronization. The auto start completes with the plant at a selected output, available for external (e.g. load following) control. 87
