Abstract

A turbine-generator system that uses high pressure steam to turn a turbine connected to a power generator. High pressure steam is generated by a continuous flow of pressurized water. The pressure steam generator can be configured as a separate unit, or as a part of the turbine. Steam is applied to the turbine from one high pressure steam unit through at least one nozzle, applying the steam against the turbine blades.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed: 
     
         1 . A turbine-generator system including a high pressure steam unit which supplies steam to turn a turbine which is connected to a power generator, the high pressure steam unit is controlled by a control unit, the control unit controls the amount and pressure of the water supplied to the steam generator, the water being a continuous stream of high pressure water, and the control unit controls the amount of power supplied to the high pressure steam unit, the steam in the steam unit is created by passing an electrical current between electrical elements in the steam unit and through the high pressure water passed through the steam unit. 
     
     
         2 . A turbine-generator system according to  claim 1 , wherein the high pressure water passed through the steam generator is supplied from a source outside and not included in turbine-generator system. 
     
     
         3 . A turbine-generator system according to  claim 1 , wherein the high pressure steam unit is powered by a power source including one of a three phase 480 volt AC power, three phase 208 volt AC power, 120 volt three phase AC, 120 volt AC single phase, 240 volt AC single phase, 12 volt DC and 24 volt DC one of which is applied to the high pressure steam unit and controlled by the control unit. 
     
     
         4 . A turbine-generator system according to  claim 3 , wherein the high pressure steam unit is one of a single phase unit, and a three phase unit, the two phase unit has two electrical elements and the three phase unit input uses three electrical elements. 
     
     
         5 . A turbine-generator system according to  claim 1  in which the turbine has multiple blades against which the high pressure steam produced in the high pressure steam unit is applied, and after the steam condenses back to water, the water is recycled and is directed back into the high pressure steam unit. 
     
     
         6 . The turbine-generator system according to  claim 5 , where the recycled water flows through a one way valve to prevent a back flow of water into the turbine. 
     
     
         7 . A high pressure steam unit which supplies high pressure steam to rotate a turbine, the turbine rotating a generator which supplies power, a portion of which is returned to the high pressure steam unit through a control unit which controls the pressure and temperature of the produced steam and a current that flows through water in the steam unit between electrical elements in the steam unit. 
     
     
         8 . The high pressure steam unit according to  claim 7 , wherein a high pressure flow of water, supplied by a water pump from an outside source, is applied to the high pressure steam unit, the high pressure flow of water is controlled by a control unit which regulates the steam out to maintain a constant flow of steam at a desired pressure and temperature. 
     
     
         9 . A turbine-generator system that uses a high pressure steam unit to turn a turbine which is connected to a power generator, the high pressure steam unit is controlled by a control unit, the control unit controls the amount and pressure of the water supplied to the high pressure steam unit and the amount of power supplied to the high pressure steam unit, the power supplied to the high pressure steam unit being one of DC voltage, single phase AC voltage, and three phase AC voltage. 
     
     
         10 . A turbine-generator system according to  claim 9 , wherein a single phase unit has two electrical elements and a three phase input uses three electrical elements, a voltage that is applied to the electrical elements passes between the electrical elements and through water supplied to the steam unit to produce steam in the high pressure steam unit.
