Abstract:
A system (10) includes a modular exhaust collector (30) configured to be arranged in a first orientation (50) or a second orientation (114, 116). The modular exhaust collector (30) is configured to receive an exhaust flow along an inlet axis (54), to direct the exhaust flow along a first direction (36) through an outlet (58) when in the first orientation (50), and to direct the exhaust flow along a second direction (114, 116) through the outlet (58) when in the second orientation (114, 116). The modular exhaust collector (30) includes an exhaust passage (64) to receive the exhaust flow, a plurality of compressor discharge (CD) ports (72), a plurality of flow ports (76), a bottom face (84) opposite the outlet (58) with a first drain (88), and a first side wall (82) with a second drain (88) between the bottom face (84) and the outlet (58). Each CD port (72) is disposed a first radial distance (118) from the inlet axis (54), and each flow port (76) is disposed a second radial distance (130) from the inlet axis (54).
