Abstract
In a power station installation which is designed as a combined installation, i.e. consists of a gas turbine group (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8) and of a steam cycle (13, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20) downstream of the gas turbine group, the steam rate being generated in a waste heat boiler (13) by heat exchange with the exit gases from the gas turbine (5), a heat exchanger (7), which is a component of a closed cycle, with a high-temperature reactor (12) as the heat source is placed downstream of the last compressor (4) of the gas turbine group and upstream of the combustion chamber (8). In this heat exchanger (7), the compressed air undergoes vigorous caloric processing before it flows into the downstream combustion chamber (8) in which the final caloric processing of the hot gases for charging the gas turbine (5) is accomplished. The essential point here is that the pollutant emissions of any type, in particular CO.sub.2, are effectively minimized by the extensive substitution by the heat provided via the high-temperature reactor.
