Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
This power generation system is provided with: a gas turbine having a compressor, a combustor and a turbine; a first compressed air supply line that supplies compressed air, which has been compressed by the compressor, to the combustor; a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) having an air electrode and a fuel electrode; a compressed air supply device capable of generating compressed air; and a second compressed air supply line that supplies compressed air, which has been compressed by the compressed air supply device to the SOFC. The fuel cell can thus be stably operated regardless of the operating state of the gas turbine.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
1 . A power generation system comprising: a gas turbine having a compressor and a combustor; a first compressed air supply line for supplying first compressed air compressed by the compressor to the combustor; a fuel cell having an air electrode and a fuel electrode; a compressed air supply unit capable of generating second compressed air; a second compressed air supply line for supplying second compressed air compressed by the compressed air supply unit to the fuel cell; a first on/off valve capable of opening and closing the second compressed air supply line; a bypass line connecting the first compressed air supply line and the second compressed air supply line; and a second on/off valve for opening and closing the bypass line.
