ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a method and apparatus for matching a secondary steam supply to a main steam supply of a limited enthalpy steam generator when the limited enthalpy steam generator is operating at partial capacity to maintain a primary turbine at full capacity. The limited enthalpy steam generator is connected to the primary turbine with a main steam line. The method and apparatus of the present invention rely upon (a) a secondary steam line connected to the main steam line; wherein (b) the secondary steam is at a secondary steam thermodynamic state substantially matching a main steam thermodynamic state of the main steam as a combined steam; and (c) the combined steam is passed to the primary turbine at full capacity.
