Abstract: There exists a widespread interest in the application of gas turbine power augmentation technologies in both electric power generation and mechanical drive markets, attributable to deregulation ...

Abstract: This paper discusses the gas turbine performance enhancement approach that has gained a lot of momentum in recent years in which modified Brayton cycles are used with humidification or water/steam ...

Abstract: The inlet fogging effects on the stable range of a NASA transonic compressor stage, Stage 35, are numerically simulated and analyzed in this paper. The 3D two-phase flow fields in the compressor ...

Abstract: The rotor blade tip leakage flow and associated formation of the tip leakage vortex and interaction of the tip leakage vortex with the shockwave, particularly in the case of a transonic ...
