Abstract
Provided is a machine unit layout system that simplifies the layout of a compressor unit and an expander unit and is extremely effective in terms of not only the reliability of the entire machine but also maintainability. Two separate compressors, a low-pressure-side compressor and a high-pressure-side compressor (A,), are disposed on either side of a steam turbine (). Two separate expanders, a low-pressure-side expander and a high-pressure-side expander (A,B), are disposed outside the low-pressure-side and high-pressure-side compressors (A,). The steam turbine (), the low-pressure-side and high-pressure-side compressors (A,), and the low-pressure-side and high-pressure-side expanders (A,B) are coupled by rotor shafts comprising a single shaft. The torque distribution between rotator shafts is optimized.
