Waste Heat Recovery Unit on Gas Turbine Exhaust Stack

Waste Heat Recovery Unit on Gas Turbine Exhaust Stack

Waste Heat Recovery Unit on Gas Turbine Exhaust Stack

(OP)
Hello:

Do excuse me if this posting does not belong to this particular group. I just chose the one I thought would be the most appropriate.

We are preparing a proposal for a client on Waste Heat Recovery Units (WHRUs - recovering waste heat from gas turbine exhaust to heat up oil running through tubes) on the Gas Turbine Exhaust Stacks. Using dampers and guillotines we need to make the WHRU module 'man-safe' so that the operator can access it while the Gas Turbine is running. How can it be accomplished and is there a standard governing the 'man-safe' requirements? Project is in Australia and USA.

RE: Waste Heat Recovery Unit on Gas Turbine Exhaust Stack

What temperatures are we talking about? for the stack? for the oil? Will the piping and stack be insulated? The hvac forum may offer more suggestions.
