Abstract

Plant currently under construction for repowering Slough Estates is described. This will not only provide the basis for replacement of ageing plant, but will enable the existing steam turbines to work as part of a high efficiency cycle. The principles relating to the combined generation of steam and electrical energy are reviewed for existing and possible plant configurations, with a view to optimizing the energy conversion. The choice of a gas turbine and fully fired heat recovery boiler to provide extra power plus steam for existing purposes is shown to be justified by the savings in fuel and other operating costs over a typical year's operation. The new plant will burn gas, residual oil or distillate oil, and fuel treatment plant is an essential part of the equipment. The energy savings indicated using technology already available in Britain point the way to future developments.
