Abstract
This invention relates to a combustion turbine power plant having a gas turbine. The plant includes a compressor for generating a compressed gas stream, a fuel delivery system for supplying a combustible fuel to the gas turbine, a combustor for receiving the compressed gas stream and fuel and generating a high temperature working gas, a turbine section for receiving the working gas from the combustor and expanding the working gas through the turbine section to produce rotating shaft power, a steam generator for supplying cooling steam to components of either the combustor and/or the turbine to extract heat therefrom and cool the same and, a steam outlet manifold for collecting the cooling steam and selectively directing at least a portion thereof to either, or both, the fuel delivery system to atomize the fuel oil entering said combustor or the turbine to augment the power output of the turbine.
