RISAnalyses of the Associated Technical and Economic Risks of the Simple and Intercooled Brayton Helium Recuperated Gas Turbine Cycles for Generation IV Nuclear Power Plants
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The simple cycle recuperated (SCR) and intercooled cycle recuperated (ICR) are highly efficient Brayton helium gas turbine cycles, designed for the gas-cooled fast reactor (GFR) and very-high-temperature reactor (VHTR) ...
Industrial Gas Turbine Performance: Compressor Fouling and On Line Washing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Industrial gas turbines are susceptible to compressor fouling, which is the deposition and accretion of airborne particles or contaminants on the compressor blades. This paper demonstrates the blade aerodynamic effects of ...
The Development of a Model for the Assessment of Biofouling in Gas Turbine System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A significant problem encountered in the gas turbine industry with fuel products is the degradation of fuel and fuel systems by microorganisms, which are largely bacteria, embedded in biofilms. These microorganisms cause ...
