    Learning ObjectivesUpon completion of this training, participants will beable to:

    Identify the basic system components and trace theliquid fuel delivery path.

    Describe the basic principles of operation for the fuelpump, bypass valve, and the pressurizing and drainvalve.

    Liquid Fuel SystemPURPOSE

    Provides clean, high pressure, regulated fuel to the fuelnozzles.

    REQUIREMENTS

    Specification: TPM FR-1 specifies liquid fuel requirements for

    stationary gas turbines.

    Clean fuel is essential to prevent fuel nozzle clogging. Clogged nozzles will result in a poor spray pattern that

    affects temperature distribution and leads to hot-section distress.

    Liquid Fuel Sys. - Gas Generator ComponentsMAIN FUEL PUMP

    Driven by gas generator through accessory gearbox.

    Centrifugal "boost" stage located opposite the driveend. Boost stage is driven through a gear train andhas a shear section.

    Boost pressure passes through a 60x60 mesh filter.Filter will bypass if it becomes clogged.

    Positive displacement gear stage provides dischargeto the Liquid Fuel Throttle Valve.

    El Furrial Power PlantBarinas Power Plant

    Liquid Fuel Sys. - Gas Generator Components Internal pressure relief valve provides bypass for low

    flow conditions. Adjusted to limit pressure to amaximum of 835-845 psig.

    Bypass from throttle valve returns to the pump andenters same path as boost stage discharge.

    Pressure taps are provided at key locations forinstrumenting pump to check performance.

    LOCATION

    Mounted on Diffuser at 6 o'clock position. Contains apressurizing section and a drain (dump) section.

    PURPOSE Supplies fuel to the primary nozzles during light off

    and start.

    Provides air assist through secondary nozzles. Provides fuel to secondary nozzles at high power

    settings. Drains fuel manifolds at shutdown.

    El Furrial Power PlantBarinas Power Plant

    Liquid Fuel Sys. - Gas Generator ComponentsOPERATION

    Metered fuel passes through mesh filter.

    Fuel pressure (125 psi) from throttle valve acts onpiston and closes drain poppet.

    Fuel pressure opens the pressurizing valve and fuelflows through the primary outlets.

    Air assist pressure for fuel atomization during start isprovided through secondary outlets untilapproximately 5200 RPM N2.

  • 21

    El Furrial Power PlantBarinas Power Plant

    Liquid Fuel Sys. - Gas Generator Components At about 250 psig, fuel pressure opens the

    pressurizing valve further to provide fuel flow throughthe secondary outlets for high power operation.

    At shutdown, pressure signal from throttle valve dropsand lets spring pressure open the overboard drain.Pressurizing valve closes and primary sections of fuelmanifolds drain while air assist purges the secondary.

    PURPOSE

    Improves fuel atomization during starting by injectinghigh pressure air into the secondary flow section offuel system. This helps fuel mixture lightoff at coldstart when using typical marine standard fuels.

    Purges secondary manifold at shutdown.COMPONENTS

    Solenoid Check valve

  • 24

    El Furrial Power PlantBarinas Power Plant

    Liquid Fuel Sys. - Gas Generator ComponentsOPERATION

    As the start sequence begins, fuel will only be suppliedthrough the primary path.

    A signal from the fuel control energizes the solenoid,permitting high pressure filtered air to flow upstreamand unseat the check valve.

    From the check valve, air flows through the secondarysection of P&D valve and into the secondary supply tothe fuel nozzles.

    After lightoff, the fuel control de-energizes thesolenoid at about 5200 N2 RPM to shut off the airsupply. Check valve seats to prevent fuel from flowingto the air assist system.

  • 27

    El Furrial Power PlantBarinas Power Plant

    Liquid Fuel Sys. - Gas Generator Components Primary flow is constant during operation. Secondary

    flow occurs during high power operation. The constant primary flow cools the secondary

    discharge area to reduce coking that could occur whenfuel is not flowing at lower power.

    Air blast from HPC flows through stator swirlers toatomize the fuel.

    Nozzles are precision manufactured to closetolerances to produce optimal spray pattern.
