Abstract: Several gas turbine power augmentation techniques are available to counter the detrimental drop in power and thermal efficiency that occur at high ambient temperatures. Inlet fogging and wet ...

Abstract: There is a widespread interest in the application of gas turbine power augmentation technologies such as evaporative cooling and mechanical chilling in the mechanical drive and power generation ...

Abstract: On March 13, 1998, Dr. Hans Joachim Pabst von Ohain, co-inventor of the turbojet, passed away at the age of 86. As a young doctoral student, von Ohain conceived of and built a demonstrator ...

Abstract: Inlet fogging of gas turbine engines has attained considerable popularity due to the ease of installation and the relatively low first cost compared to other inlet cooling methods. With increasing ...
