New type steam turbine for cogeneration

A concept of energy saving & efficiency improving from cold source for cogeneration steam turbine was discussed herein. A new type NCB cogeneration steam turbine was proposed,which could considerably increase heat supply capacity,thermal efficiency and electric power. Taking 300 MW cogeneration steam turbine as an example,the results show that heat supply capacity reaches the maximum,i.e. increases by 30 %,thermal efficiency is improved by 12 %,and electric power is enhanced by 15 MW during peak heat load.
