Gas Engines — The Outstanding Potentials

Outstanding safety quest ons concerning the analysis of ventilation and gas dispersion in gas turbine enclosures :

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors gratefully acknowledge many helpful comments and suggestions made on this guidance This document provides best practice guidance in the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to the design and assessment of ventilation and gas dispersion in gas turbine (GT) enclosures. The focus is from a safety perspective. Gas turbines located in spacious turbine halls ...

Millimeter-scale, Mems Gas Turbine Engines

The confluence of market demand for greatly improved compact power sources for portable electronics with the rapidly expanding capability of micromachining technology has made feasible the development of gas turbines in the millimeter-size range. With airfoil spans measured in 100’s of microns rather than meters, these “microengines” have about 1 millionth the air flow of large gas turbines and...

Prognosis of Faults in Gas Turbine Engines

A problem of interest to aircraft engine maintainers is the automatic detection, classification, and prediction (or prognosis) of potential critical component failures in gas turbine engines. Automatic monitoring offers the promise of substantially reducing the cost of repair and replacement of defective parts, and may even result in saving lives. Current processing for prognostic health monito...
