Abstract

An oil supply system for a stationary turbomachine is provided. A safe operation of the turbomachine is enabled even at ambient temperatures of up to 60° C. for a plurality of hours in a novel connection arrangement of the components of the oil supply system, such as the oil tank, pump a, and heat exchanger, as well as the pipeline system, without one of the components having to be designed for a further increased operating temperature. The oil tank has two regions stacked horizontally one above the other for storing the oil. The two regions are largely or completely separated from each other by a separating element.
