GE Gas Turbine Performance Characteristics Inlet Cooling The ambient effect curve (see Figure 9) clearly shows that turbine output and heat rate are improved as compressor inlet temperature decreases. Lowering the compressor inlet tem- perature can be accomplished by installing an evaporative cooler or inlet chiller in the inlet ducting downstream of the inlet filters. Careful application of these systems is necessary, as con- densation or carryover of water can exacerbate compressor fouling and degrade performance. These systems generally are followed by mois- ture separators or coalescing pads to reduce the possibility of moisture carryover. As Figure 16 shows, the biggest gains from evap- orative cooling are realized in hot, low-humid- ity climates. It should be noted that evapora- tive cooling is limited to ambient temperatures of 59 F/15 C and above (compressor inlet tem- perature >45 F/7.2 C) because of the potential for icing the compressor. Information con- tained in Figure 16 is based on an 85% effective evaporative cooler. Effectiveness is a measure of how close the cooler exit temperature approaches the ambient wet bulb tempera- GT22419-1D ture. For most applications, coolers having an effectiveness of 85% or 90% provide the most economic benefit. Chillers, unlike evaporative coolers, are not lim- ited by the ambient wet bulb temperature. The achievable temperature is limited only by the capacity of the chilling device to produce coolant and the ability of the coils to transfer heat.

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
