the exergy analysis is a proper method for performance evaluation of industrial systems. a generic and detailed analysis of the gpcss on the second gas pipeline of iran  is made by the means of exergy. the two main improvement measures of fuel pre-heating and steam injection technologies are presented for the current conventional stations. steady state equations regarding the second law of ther...

The use of gas turbines is widespread in several industries such as; hydrocarbons, aerospace, power generation. However, despite to their many advantages, they are subject to multiple exploitation problem that need to be solved. Indeed, the purpose of the present paper is to develop mathematical models of this industrial system using an adaptive fuzzy neural network inference system. Where the ...

Supervision of the performance of an industrial gas turbine is important since it gives valuable information of the process health and makes efficient determination of compressor wash intervals possible. Slowly varying sensor faults can easily be misinterpreted as performance degradations and result in an unnecessary compressor wash. Here, a diagnostic algorithm is carefully combined with non-l...

gas turbines play an important role in supplying power for the country especially in peak electricity load. the main disadvantages are the turbines, they produce large changes are a result of climate change. however, in times of peak electricity grid and at the same time warm months, can produce gas turbines under the effect of ambient temperature, the amount of reduced considerably. the method...

Vibration monitoring is an important practice throughout regular operation of gas turbine power systems and, even more so, during characterization tests. Vibration monitoring relies on accurate and reliable sensor readings. To obtain accurate readings, sensors are placed such that the signal is maximized. In the case of characterization tests, strain gauges are placed at the location of vibrati...
