Abstract:Industrial and aeroderivative gas turbines when used in CHP and CCPP applications typically experience an increased exhaust back pressure due to losses from the downstream balance-of-plant systems. Also, gas turbines for mechanical drive application have a wide operating envelope which leads to a fluctuating back pressure that varies with change in exhaust flows. This increased back pressure on the power turbine results in increased exhaust gas temperatures and aerodynamic loading that can influence the mechan… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
