Abstract
Kinetic energy available from the turbomachinery may boost short-term ramp rates during load shifting between generator and fuel cell that may be exploited to optimize the performance of turbine-fuel cell hybrid systems during load following. The paper starts with modeling a gas turbine, gearbox, and generator sitting on the rigid shafts as a two-mass model primarily for estimating the rotational inertia available from the turbogenerator. The gas turbine and its environment impose constraints of available space allowances, measurements from high-speed rotating parts, lack of accessibility to the shaft of measure, making replacements and/or required installation adjustments of the torque transducer difficult. It is demonstrated that in the absence of torque measurement, the data containing only a slow excursion of the rotor motion in response to a slight load change is sufficient to determine inertia and damping coefficients from the model. Furthermore, the generator's reactive power capability was investigated because it serves as an asset in integrated hybrid systems to meet dynamic reactive power demands, reducing the burden on the fuel cell's power electronics control in generating reactive power.
