    Measuring Combustion Efficiency Using Flue Gas?

    Burning Bunker Fuel Oil: Using chromatographic testing of flue gases, can a measured reduction in contaminating emission products in kg/h be translated to a measured reduction in the fuel oil being burned, kg/h? i.e. Change in Unburned Hydrocarbons in kg/h = 'x'barrils fuel oil

    Seismic vs Proximity Probe

    Displacement probes for shaft movement in the vicinity of the probe. They cannot measure shaft bending away from the probe. Used to indicate problems of unbalance, oil whirl, misalignment. Velocity pickup detectors have flat response of amplitude as a function of frequency. Alarm setting is...

    What Is Maximum Achieved Efficiency Burning Bunker?

    bonzoboy: I checked with the independent power producer that is using the cells, again. The production manager stands by his numbers. And now there is another local area utility considering these cells. They are considering doing a 'study'. These cells are not for combustion turbines, they...

    Suitability of EP Gear Oil

    The oil system is designed to maintain the babbitt white metal temperature below 230F. Thus the exit oil temperature from the bearing is limited to around 160F...so your sump temp of 150F is normal. The oil may contain additives, other than the Extreme Pressure additive, such as oxidation...

    good question

    sakram: yes. your PT is driving a generator and is connected to a grid and the electric grid "system" controls the frequency(speed) of your generator and thus your PT via the gearbox. If you put more fuel into the GG then the generator will either raise in load or raise in frequency or both...

    Purging fuel lines.

    You need to check the gas properties of each and determine displacement volumes and rates, etc...the only displacement using CO2 that I'm familiar is using CO2 inbetween air and hydrogen gas/degas operations in hydrogen gas cooled generators. The CO2 is never left as a blanket... Whe laying up...

    Failure in a turbine oil cooler

    install a second cooler, switch over (correctly mind you) and do pm when you know you're dirty... since when does a T-G set have to shutdown for a dirty oil cooler, water or oil side? Most cooling water systems are constant pressure and most oil coolers have a temperature regulating valve on the...

    Mid-size gas turbines

    How does this little GT fit? Rating = 1.48mw Recoverable Energy in the Exhaust= 22 mmBTU/hr or 5.87 MJ/s Steam Production Dry & Saturated @ 25psig / 1.72 bar=19700 lb/hr @ 150psig / 10.3 bar = 19000 lb/hr @ 600psig / 41.4 bar / 750F / 400C = 15600 lb/hr

    rotation speed

    The sliding component has internal helical splines. The teeth of a helical gear are inclined at an angle to the axis of rotation of the gear. Helical gears are smoother running than spur gears and are more suitable for rotation at high velocities. The acrobat file on the SSSclutches website has...

    sakram: verify that your scavenge and supply lines are correctly mounted...that is not reversed.

    rotation speed

    sakram: Look at what rmw is saying... you should verify that your oil scavenging temperatures have not increased over time. Simply due to windage you should be seeing a rise if there was no such windage problem before. How old is your concern about the PT rotating?? Is this a DAY ONE problem...

    rotation speed

    rmw: Right. The windage from the lube spray would cause heat and be noticeable. The unit has oil scavenging. Scavenging will reduce temperature excursions significantly by sucking the hot oil out as fast as or faster than it is sprayed into the housing. Aeroderivative GT's use oil spraying...

    rotation speed

    sakram: 1. The Output hub with the Pawls of the clutch is to the Generator shaft...these Pawls should be extended radially outwards away from the ratchet teeth during rotation. The actual RPM necessary to position these Pawls outward is unknown, maybe you know(?) 2. The Ratchet teeth are part...

    rotation speed

    If the pawls (plural) are even "just" contacting the ratchet teeth at 1500 rpm... my guess is they would not be asking us for advice on why the GT LP is spinning but "why is the SSS smokin' and making lots of different noises...quickly please"

    rotation speed

    sakram: the link and acrobat pdf file are here... the affect is not mentioned due to obvious reasons but if you look closely at the design of the ratchet teeth and the enclosure you can see that only this can be rotating the inlet side since with this SSS clutch you are either engaged or...
