Power Energy 2017-3191 - New Tech Combined Cycle Gas Turbines (CCGT) electrical generation focus is often touted. Water Swirled Into Gas Turbine Technology with Len Andersen engineer is saying it. Made presentation of my technology to a large gas turbine manufacturer and got where is the analysis on claims of heard by me of 1. Twelve % gas , fourteen% liquid up in fuel to electricity or mechanical energy output compared to combined cycle now in use ! 2. Low capital cost combined cycle units, smaller and in greater numbers. 3. The efficiency of gas turbine electrical generator units 1 to 400 MW is nearly the same which would greatly reduce electrical distribution losses. Much lower startup shut down cost ! 4. Use in transportation marine, train combined cycle gas turbines. 5. Fit in aircraft for fuel savings the number given me was 30 % for Inter-European use and 20% for Trans Atlantic. Before latest Patent .
I left quietly with I will get back to you! Preliminary
analysis of Patents pertaining to Water Swirled into Hot End of
Gas Turbine Combined Cycle and Aircraft Propulsion ( patent
8,671,696 and Gas Turbine Thrust Fuel Efficiency
Enhancement System Water (Volatile) Introduction
Arrangement Method and Means 9,376,933 and one provisional
application 30 December ) owned by Len Andersen ! The
analysis is to determine if said water introduced into a gas
turbine after the combustor in the turbine and/or end of turbine
and/or in the nozzle or connector to extractive turbine “section”
yields more thrust energy – electrical energy per unit fuel. On
thermodynamics analysis plus ~20 % with simplifying
assumptions. Friend asked where is a start point beyond add
heat gets steam analysis of water swirled in gas turbine
technology ! The technology is to put water in droplet form into
the hot end of the gas turbine. The “plumbing etc.” of water to
droplet form is worked out.My view of start point is water
droplet(s) circular motion around main shaft at 200 mph with
mock one thrust gas parallel to main shaft temperature from
1200–1500 degrees Celsius to 150 steaming phenomena ! From
there finite element analysis with factors of Size of Water
Droplets Created by Nozzle Parameters &/or Impingement
Design Detail. &/or rotational design, Spacing of droplets,
Inter-activeness of vaporization visa vi temperature gas - liquid
visa vi cooling of mass visa vi turbulence, etc. You want
electricity for lower cost. The technology is natural gas
powered orientated. It lends itself to smaller units cutting
distribution cost grids Pollution suppression would be enhanced
by water bring pollution down nature of the system. Capital
cost is high compared to expensive to operate diesel. Heavy oil
and coal burn is next paper. Work in progress.

2. Electrical Generation New Combine Cycle US
Patents 8,671,696 & 9,376,933 & 3rd Provisional
The Technology is to have water into the hot end part of the gas turbine with
the droplets of water traveling in a curved pattern after the combustion section.
The biggest interest is with people of General Electric / Siemens / Shell / Saudi
ARAMCO . Words heard focus is on electrical generation in combined cycle
mode !
1. Who – Engineer Member of IGTI ASME – STLE - AIChE - SPE for
years / inventor noted in eleven patents.
2. What - combined cycle is a gas turbine front with a second turbine behind
it. Currently it is a gas turbine with a steam boiler heated by hot “thrust
gas“ of the turbine making steam that goes through a steam turbine. Best
efficiency heard 61 %. The invention ( new tech ) is the hot thrust gas
has water small droplet size moving in curved path etc. mixed with said
in a form that goes to steam quickly enough so that it enlarges said hot
gas volume. The enlarged thrust gas flow makes an extractive turbine turn
yielding lower capital cost and higher efficiency. Numbers gave me as
improved efficiency fuel in electricity out are +12% natural gas fuel.
3. When – Now ! Told Big International Concerns Combined Tech of Two
Patents and Patent pending and confirmed 12- 14 % combined cycle plus.
An airplane application gave +30 % , Prior To Third Patent !
3. Current Prior to New Tech Combined
Cycle Gas Turbine Electrical Generation
7. The System Water Into Turbine ( Hot End )
Part of A Gas Turbine Engine Schematic!
8. Plus Cheaper Electricity
The obvious is the more electricity out per unit
of fuel in. The less obvious is efficiency of
such less dependent on the size of electrical
power generation plant. About the same for
One to Five Hundred Mega Watt , therefore
more plants less loss on electrical distribution.
Less expensive faster start – shut down than
combined cycle steam turbine units !
9. Lower cost airplane orientated Water Swirled
into Gas Turbine Patent 9,376,933 !

Gas Turbine Thrust Fuel Efficiency Enhancement System Water (Volatile) Introduction
Arrangement Method and Means 9,376,933
Additional thrust fuel efficiency is provided for a gas turbine system that includes a
first member(s) (e.g., a support for a rotating main shaft) that is attached to a
stationary casing. The rotating main shaft is attached to the first member through a
bearing. A second member is associated with a rotating member, such as a motor or
other rotating part of the main or other shaft. The first member has a flow path in it
for the liquid (e.g. water and/or other volatile liquid) and has an opening (nozzle)
for discharging the liquid. The second member has a liquid impinging member for
generating a liquid spray, droplet, mist optimally, which vaporizes with hot
combustion gases that flow exteriorly along the main shaft. In this form
vaporization is quick and is less erosive. The volume of thrust gases is increased
advantageously and likewise engine boost increases. Note following !
10.
11. Decision Factors
1. Twelve % gas – Fourteen % liquid up in fuel to electricity or
mechanical energy output compared to combined cycle now in use
before latest provisional patent ( third ). This would reduce carbon
dioxide emissions by 12 – 14 % with additional emissions reduction
with having less distance from electrical generation to electrical
consumption.
2. Low capital cost combined cycle units, smaller and in greater
numbers. Natural gas fields availabilities expands that possibility.
3. The efficiency of gas turbine electrical generator units 1 to 400 MW is
nearly the same which would greatly reduce electrical distribution
losses. Lower start up / shut down cost than other combines cycle !
4. Pursuant to 2nd patent allowed use in ships, trains combined cycle gas
turbines systems and aircraft +30 % happening.
5. Lighter per KW capacity than some internal combustion systems.
