[0022] Example 1

[0023] A gas turbine air supply system, such as Figure 1As shown, it includes a storage tank 1 and a pressure buffer tank 2. The storage tank 1 is used to store LNG. The outlet end of the storage tank 1 is connected to a heat exchanger through a heat exchanger inlet pipe 3. The heat exchanger inlet pipe 3 is provided with a main shut-off valve 14. The heat exchanger includes a first heat exchanger 401 and a second heat exchanger 402. The heat exchange medium of the heat exchanger is air. The outlet end of the storage tank 1 is connected to the first heat exchanger 401 and the second heat exchanger 402 through the heat exchanger inlet pipe 3. The first heat exchanger 401 and the second heat exchanger 402 both adopt finned heat exchangers. The outlet of the first heat exchanger 401 and the outlet of the second heat exchanger 402 are connected to the pressure buffer tank 2. The medium outlet of the first heat exchanger 401 is connected to the air inlet of the gas turbine 7 through the air delivery pipeline 10. The air delivery pipeline 10 is provided with an air filter 12 and a temperature and humidity sensor 13. The medium outlet of the second heat exchanger 402 is connected to the atmosphere. The first and second heat exchangers 401 and 402 are provided with a first regulating valve 1101 and a second regulating valve 1102 at the air inlet end, respectively. The outlet of the pressure buffer tank 2 is connected to the gas turbine 7 through the air inlet pipeline 6. The heat exchanger inlet pipeline 3 is provided with a pressure regulating valve assembly, and the air inlet pipeline 6 is provided with a flow control valve assembly.

[0024] The pressure regulating valve assembly includes a pressure regulating valve body 801, a pressure sensor 802 and a pressure controller 803. The pressure regulating valve body 801 is provided with a pressure regulating valve signal receiver. The pressure sensor 802 is used to monitor the internal pressure of the pressure buffer tank 2. The pressure controller 803 is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 802 and the pressure regulating valve signal receiver respectively.

[0025] The flow control valve assembly includes a flow control valve body 901, a flow sensor 902 and a flow controller 903. A flow control valve signal receiver is provided on the flow control valve body 901. The flow sensor 902 is used to monitor the gas flow in the intake pipe 6. The flow controller 903 is electrically connected to the flow sensor 902 and the flow control valve signal receiver respectively.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] The structure is basically the same as that of Example 1, except that a set of pressure regulating valve assembly and flow control valve assembly is added, which serve as backup for the original pressure regulating valve assembly and flow control valve assembly and are designed to be redundant with each other.

[0028] Working and use process: The utility model is used to discharge and vaporize liquefied natural gas from an LNG storage tank, and finally supply it to a gas turbine 7 at a suitable pressure and flow rate. LNG (liquefied natural gas) is a cryogenic liquid, and its temperature is generally below -162°C. Before entering the gas turbine 7 for combustion and work, it needs to absorb heat in the air and vaporize into a gas state at room temperature. First, after being discharged from the storage tank 1, it enters the first heat exchanger 401 and the second heat exchanger 402 respectively. The liquefied natural gas in the first heat exchanger 401 and the second heat exchanger 402 exchanges heat with the air, and becomes gaseous natural gas and enters the pressure buffer tank 2, and then passes through the air intake pipe in the pressure buffer tank 2. 6 enters the gas turbine 7 for combustion and work, and the air heat exchange medium in the first heat exchanger 401 becomes cold air after heat exchange. The cold air passes through the air filter 12 and enters the air inlet of the gas turbine 7 to participate in combustion. The purpose of this is that the output of the gas turbine will decrease as the temperature of its inlet air increases. When the external ambient temperature is high (such as in hot summer), the gas turbine cannot operate at full load due to the high ambient temperature. By adjusting the opening of the first regulating valve 1101, the LNG flow entering the first heat exchanger 401 is controlled, and the cooled air heat exchange medium enters the gas turbine 7, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the inlet air temperature of the gas turbine. For example, in a cold winter, the first regulating valve 1101 can be completely closed and only the second regulating valve 1102 can be opened to allow LNG to directly enter the second heat exchanger for heat exchange, and then the cold air heat exchange medium coming out of the second heat exchanger 402 is discharged into the atmosphere. Note that the first heat exchanger continues to work at this time, and the air heat exchange medium (without heat exchange) directly passes through the air filter 12 into the gas turbine 7.

[0029] The pressure buffer tank 2 is used to buffer the fluctuation of natural gas. The pressure buffer tank 2 is provided with a pressure sensor 802. The pressure sensor 802 obtains the real-time pressure in the pressure buffer tank 2 and transmits it to the pressure controller 803. The pressure controller 803 outputs a signal to the pressure regulating valve signal receiver, controls the opening of the pressure regulating valve body 801 to adjust the pressure of the pressure buffer tank 2. When the pressure is too high, the opening of the pressure regulating valve body 801 is reduced. When the pressure is too low, the opening of the pressure regulating valve body 801 is increased. A flow control valve assembly is provided on the air intake pipeline 6. The flow sensor 902 obtains the real-time flow and transmits it to the flow controller 903. The flow controller 903 outputs a signal to the flow control valve signal receiver, controls the opening of the flow control valve body 901 to adjust the gas supply flow. When the gas consumption of the gas turbine 7 increases, the opening of the flow control valve body 901 is increased. When the gas consumption of the gas turbine 7 decreases, the opening of the flow control valve body 901 is reduced.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solution deviate from the scope of the technical solution of the embodiments of the utility model.
