DESIGN MANUAL
DISTILLATE FUEL OIL
1. PURPOSE
The Distillate fuel oil feeding system of the GT is constituted of 2 pre-assembled modules :
1st module: Distillate Oil forwarding skid
2nd module: Distillate Oil heater Skid (supplied by customer).
3rd module: Distillate Oil Filtering Skid
These modules condition the liquid fuel to obtain the required characteristics at GT inlet in flow, pressure, filtration
and viscosity.
Customer to supply fuel with viscosity between 1.8 and 50cSt at the forwarding skid inlet.
Between filtering skid and the GT the pipe is made of stainless steel schedule 10. All pipes between modules will
be fitted with vents and drain valves for each high and low point.
All piping supplied by customer.
Tank: supplied by customer
In general GE ask an alarm a low low level fuel oil tank in order to have:
at GT start order: alarm + starting prohibited
in GT operation : alarm + GT automatic normal stop
2. DESCRIPTION
This specification concerns only the off-base distillate fuel system (refer to Off Base Fuel system P& I D -Chapter
8 referenced documents).
The GT on-base fuel equipment is described in separate documents.
2.1. CONSTITUTION
1st Module : Distillate Fuel Oil Forwarding Skid
This Distillate Fuel Oil module forwards the liquid fuel from the tank to the GT inlet, with a sufficient pressure
to overcome the pressure drop of the various components and to provide the required pressure at the GT
inlet.
NOTA 1 : Pumps dont operate during the gas system operation. Pumps operate during crude oil
operation.
2nd Module : heater skid (supplied by customer)
3rd Module : Distillate Filtering Skid
This skid allows the distillate fuel oil filtration and pressure regulation at GT inlet.
The liquid fuel pressure at GT inlet must be between 2.75 bar(g) to 5.17 bar(g) (36 to 75 PSI)
Electrical heat tracing
A self-regulating electrical heat tracing system and insulating are installed on all fuel direct piping and
equipment between hot fuel source (heater skid or fuel tank) and the GT inlet if fuel oil viscosity is higher than
10 cSt at minimum temperature.
The fuel temperature will be maintained at +16C during stand-by periods, to secure the good fuel viscosity
value (<10 cSt), necessary for the GT fuel combustion system at ignition time.
Upstream the hot fuel source, the fuel temperature will be maintained at +0C during stand-by periods.

3. FUNCTION
3.1. STEADY STATE OPERATION AND START-UP
As soon as the valves are positioned as indicated on the P&ID (NC for closed), the following is fully automatic.
When the start order is given to the "Speedtronic", the "4 FD" signal is activated and then :
Solenoid valve FY / 20 FD-6 is energized (open for the air instrumentation), so the pressure regulation
valve PCV355 can operate)
starting of the selected motor-pump unit (201/202 PO).
solenoid valve FY / 20 FD-1 is energized ( open to the air instrumentation).
Wait 30 seconds for fuel temperature and pressure stabilization ("preliminary preparation")
GT can start.
Solenoid valve FY / 20FD-2 is energized (closed) when 14HS =1and 4FD = 1. The operating of the
distillate fuel oil system is automatic (except the filter permutations) and it is entirely controlled by the
"Speedtronic".
3.1.1.Description : Distillate Fuel Oil Pressure Regulating System
The system can be cut in three parts:
The regulating valve PCV 355 which adjusts the fuel pressure at the GT inlet. When this pressure
increases, PCV 355 closes, and when this pressure decreases, PCV 355 opens.
The "reference pressure (setting point : 5 bar(g)) is made by air pressure coming from 20FD-6 when GT
is burning fuel oil.
The system constituted of two spring-loaded check valves reverse mounted NV 355 A and NV 355 B and
the needle valve HV 355; it treats the "actual pressure" to have a good stability (or speed, when
necessary) of the regulating system.
3.1.2.Operating Distillate fuel Oil Pressure Regulating System
When the selected motor-pump unit starts, the "reference pressure is made by air pressure coming from
20FD-1 when GT is burning fuel oil (setting point: 5 bar(g)). above PCV 355 diaphragm.
The fuel pressure at skid outlet arrives under PCV 355 diaphragm via HV 315 and HV 355; the PCV 355
regulating valve then moves to the right position until obtaining the same pressure under and above the
actuator diaphragm, and then a regulated fuel pressure at skid outlet equal to the reference pressure,
independently of flow through PCV 355 and of upstream pressure value.
In normal working, an eventual "pumping" of the regulating system is dampened by the needle valve HV
355 which imposes a low speed and then a good stability of the system.
However, when the system must operate immediately (for example when the GT load is quickly and
largely varying), the orifice diameter of HV 355 is too small to allow that.
When the difference between the "reference pressure" and the "actual pressure" exceeds the check valve
(NV 355 A or NV 355 B) setting value (+/-10 PSI), the main regulating valve PCV 355 can be quickly
operated via one of these two check valves.
3.1.3.Distillate Fuel Motor-Pump Units
Note: It is forbidden to start 2 pumps simultaneously. If one pump is running in automatic mode, it should
be impossible to start the other pump, even manually.

4.1. CONTROL
4.1.1.Solenoid Valve (FY [20 FD-2])

When the 14HS =1and 4FD = 1.
During gas fuel operation, solenoid valve FY / 20 FD-2 is not energized (open). During gas fuel
liquid fuel transfer, solenoid valve FY / 20 FD-2 is energized (closed) when FSR1 signal exceeds
20%.
FY/20FD-2, is open ( not energized)
When the 14HS =0
During liquid fuel operation, solenoid valve FY / 20 FD-2 is energized (closed). During liquid fuel
transfer, solenoid valve FY / 20 FD-2 is de energized (open) when FRS1 becomes lower then

7. HEALTH AND SAFETY

Liquid fuel gives rise to two kinds of risk: spillage and fire:
Spillage: all necessary precaution must be taken to avoid spillage during pre-commissioning. The precaution
must comply with local regulation
Fire: there is no fire risk from the liquid fuel itself. Fire risk may occur using liquid fuel near a heat source. There
discipline must be established to ensure that other activities performed during erection (grinding, welding) do
not occur near the liquid fuel system at the same time since the combination can pose a serious risk of fire.
