    Gas Turbing Inlet Cooling by Evaporation

    Hi zdas04, I am sorry if I bothered you with my comment, but be assure it was far from being my intention. I was just shocked when I read your numbers, since making the calculations, my project would cost between 10-12 times more as compared with the ballpark figures release by some...

    Gas Turbing Inlet Cooling by Evaporation

    Hello zdas04, I thought I had found all I could get from this thread but it seems I could get one more info from you. You seem to be aware of some prices involves with the installation of this kind of evaporative coolers in gas turbines and it could be really helpful for me in order to have a...

    Gas Turbing Inlet Cooling by Evaporation

    zdas04, Thank you for all the useful information. The water quality is now clear, that was a major concern. This is one advantage for evaporative cooler since for fogging, demin water is compulsory, so a small reverse osmosis unit would be required. Apart from that, I see that fogging is also a...

    Gas Turbing Inlet Cooling by Evaporation

    EdStainless, No, I haven´t talked to any suppliers yet. The idea is to present the different possibilites to the management, see if they are finally interested and then, if they are, go with a technology. Most likely, evaporative cooling/fogging, since chillers are expensive and not worth it for...

    Gas Turbing Inlet Cooling by Evaporation

    25362, Thanks for the paper, it is the first one I find where calculations are explained. It looks like that in evaporative coolers with recirculation the water temperature has no influence, or very little, and air outlet temperature can be calculate following the isoenthalpy line from the...

    Gas Turbing Inlet Cooling by Evaporation

    Hello zdas04, Thanks for your reply. From it, it is now clear that we could perform the turbine air inlet cooling with the availiable water at 30-35ºC. It is still not clear in my head the mechanism for this to happen but first, the urgent, and then, looking for more information, the important...

    Gas Turbing Inlet Cooling by Evaporation

    Hello all, I know the topic I will ask about has been already discussed in a few other threads but, after reading them and getting as much information as I could on the internet, I was unable to find the answer to my question. We operate 2x 27MW gas turbines in our process, not to generate...

    Liquid expansion turbine??

    Hi rmw, Thank you for having taking the time to reply to my message. I had already tried searching for "hydro turbine". However, the results are exclusively about hydroelectric generation, using the water potential energy to move a turbine and then generate electricity. But I have failed in...

    Liquid expansion turbine??

    Hello all, I hope my question is placed in the right forum since it may be more adequate to ask my question in another forum. I currently work in a chemical plant and there would be a potential to improve it, although I don´t even know if what I have thought exists. This year we will...
