Trends in increasing gas-turbine units efficiency

Design consideration of supercritical CO2 power cycle integral experiment loop

“…Fig. 5 is a summary of the relation between power size and efficiency while eliminating the effect of turbine inlet temperature difference for industrial gas turbines from the same database [24,25]. It shows that the cycle net efficiency of small power is generally lower than that of large power system.…”

“…4. The turbine inlet temperature and cycle efficiency of industrial gas turbines [24,25]. compressor geometry, careful consideration is required when designing the SeCO 2 compressor.…”

“…4 shows various industrial gas turbine efficiencies with respect to the turbine inlet temperature and gas turbine power size. The collected gas turbine efficiencies are referred from the open literatures [24,25]. Fig.…”

Thermal Sprayed Coatings Used Against Corrosion and Corrosive Wear

“…Coatings are applied onto bearing journals, bearing seals, sub shaft journal, labyrinth seals, blades, tip seals, inlet and exhausts and housing Davis (2004). A detailed description of the different www.intechopen.com land-based turbines can be found in the paper of Lebedev and Kostennikov (2008). Pomeroy (2005) gives a detailed description of coatings for gas turbine materials and long-term stability issues.…”

Effect of size on ground-coupled heat pump performance

“…Larger systems, and larger flow systems in general are more efficient thermodynamically than smaller systems [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Ignoring cost considerations, the most efficient design is a landscape served by a few large installations, each installation allocated to an inhabited space (area).…”
