Method for operating a gas turbo group
First Claim
1. A method for operating a gas turbo group, which gas turbo group includes at least one combustion chamber, wherein the combustion chamber includes at least one catalytic, first burner stage and a second, non-catalytic burner stage following the at least one catalytic burner stage in the flow direction, the method comprising:
- supplying the gas turbo group with a total fuel mass stream ({dot over (m)}FUEL) of the gas turbo group;
distributing the total fuel mass stream to at least the catalytic burner stage and the non-catalytic burner stage;
determining the temperature (T2) at the outlet from the catalytic burner stage;
regulating, limiting to a set value, limiting to a maximum value, or combinations thereof, the temperature at the outlet from the catalytic burner stage by changing the combustion air mass stream and blocking the fuel supply to the non-catalytic burner stage when the combustion air mass stream is below an achievable maximum;
determining a net power output (PACT) of the gas turbo group; and
regulating the fuel mass flow (mSEV) to the non-catalytic burner stage depending on a control deviation (PSET-PACT) of the net power output.

Abstract
A gas turbo group has a combustion chamber comprising a catalytic burner stage (2), a preburner stage (1) located upstream from the catalytic burner stage, as well as a non-catalytic burner stage (11, 5, 6) located downstream from the catalytic burner stage. The preburner stage serves to always maintain a temperature (T1) at the inlet into the catalytic stage that corresponds at least to a minimum temperature (TMIN) necessary for operating the catalytic burner stage. According to the invention, the gas turbo group is operated so that the burner stage located downstream from the catalytic combustion chamber is taken into operation only when the temperature (T2) at the outlet from the catalytic stage has reached an upper limit in the presence of a maximum combustion air mass flow.
