Abstract
A device for controlling a supply of a working fluid to a power generation cycle with a compressor compressing the working fluid and a precooler cooling the working fluid supplied to the compressor comprises a storage tank storing the working fluid supplied to the power generation cycle and a flotation tank disposed between the precooler and the compressor to flow or temporarily store the working fluid, wherein a pressure within the flotation tank and a flow rate of the working fluid are controlled based on pressures at an inlet of the compressor and an outlet of the precooler.
Claims19
A device for controlling a supply of a working fluid to a power generation cycle with a compressor compressing the working fluid and a precooler cooling the working fluid supplied to the compressor, the device comprising:
- a storage tank storing the working fluid supplied to the power generation cycle;
- a flotation tank disposed between the precooler and the compressor to flow or temporarily store the working fluid;
- a supply pump disposed between the storage tank and the flotation tank to supply the working fluid from the storage tank to the flotation tank;
- and
- a control valve disposed between the storage tank and the flotation tank to discharge the working fluid from the flotation tank to the storage tank,
- wherein a pressure within the flotation tank and a flow rate of the working fluid are controlled based on pressures at an inlet of the compressor and an outlet of the precooler.
A device for controlling a supply of a working fluid to a power generation cycle with a compressor compressing the working fluid and a precooler cooling the working fluid supplied to the compressor, the device comprising:
- a storage tank storing the working fluid supplied to the power generation cycle;
- a flotation tank disposed on a low pressure line of an inlet of the compressor to flow or temporarily store the working fluid;
- a supply pump disposed between the storage tank and the flotation tank to supply the working fluid from the storage tank to the flotation tank;
- and
- a control valve disposed between the storage tank and the flotation tank to discharge the working fluid from the flotation tank to the storage tank.
