摘要:
A gas turbine system of the type includes an air compressor (1), a turbine (2), a combustor (3), a turbine cooling unit (20), and a fuel oil atomizing unit (21). The turbine cooling unit (20) includes a cooling air passage (7) which communicates an air discharge port (1a) of the air compressor (1) to a cooling air intake (2a, 2b) of the turbine (2). The turbine cooling unit (20) further includes an intercooler (4) provided in the cooling air passage (7), and an air filter (5) provided in the cooling air passage downstream of the intercooler (4). The fuel oil atomizing unit (21) includes an atomization air passage (15) branching from the cooling air passage (7) downstream of the air filter (5) and communicating to an air inlet (14a) of the fuel nozzle (14), and an atomization air compressor (11) disposed in the atomization air passage (15) for compressing atomization air.
摘要:
In a gas turbine the quantity of cooling air required to cool the turbine (3) is reduced by the evaporative cooling of air bled from the compressor discharge for cooling purposes (34). The evaporative cooling is accomplished by spraying pressurized water (37) into a bleed pipe (23) which diverts the cooling air from the compressor discharge to the turbine (3).

A heat exchanger assembly for an aircraft includes a housing (92), a heat exchanger (96), and a nozzle (152). The housing (92) includes an inner flow path wall (100) and an outer flow path wall (102). The inner flow path wall (100) and the outer flow path wall (102) form an air inlet (106), an air outlet (108), and a venturi channel (134). The heat exchanger (96) includes a heat exchanger body (194), a heat transfer plenum (212), a plenum inlet (214), and a plenum outlet (216). The heat exchanger body (194) is disposed downstream of the venturi channel (134) within the air flow path (110). The heat exchanger (96) is configured to direct a fluid from through the heat transfer plenum (212) from the plenum inlet (214) to the plenum outlet (216). The nozzle includes (152) a nozzle housing (158) disposed within the air flow path (110). The nozzle housing (158) forms a nozzle inlet (176) and a nozzle outlet (178). The nozzle outlet (178) is disposed within the venturi channel (134).
摘要:
A gas turbine engine (10) includes a turbine (24) and a high pressure compressor (18). The high pressure compressor (18) includes a last stage having a last stage compressor blade (34a) and a last stage vane (36a). The gas turbine engine (10) includes a first flow path through which bleed air flows to the turbine (24) and a second flow path through which air from the last stage of the high pressure compressor (18) flows. The bleed air in the first flow path exchanges heat with a portion of the air in the second flow path in a heat exchanger (50) to cool the air in the second flow path. The cooled air in the second flow path is returned to the high pressure compressor (18) to cool the high pressure compressor (18).
摘要:
A gas turbine engine comprises a main compressor section having a high pressure compressor with a downstream discharge, and more upstream locations. A turbine section has a high pressure turbine. A tap taps air from at least one of the more upstream locations in the compressor section, passing the tapped air through a heat exchanger and then to a cooling compressor. The cooling compressor compresses air downstream of the heat exchanger, and delivers air into the high pressure turbine. The heat exchanger also receives air to be delivered to an aircraft cabin. An intercooling system for a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

摘要:
A cooling system for turbine engines for controlling cooling of rotor cooling air and heating of fuel gas is disclosed. The cooling system may be formed from a housing formed from a main plenum, a rotor air cooler positioned at least partially in the main plenum and a fuel gas heater positioned at least partially in the main plenum downstream from rotor air cooler. The cooling system may include a by-pass plenum for returning used cooling air back to a region upstream of the rotor air cooler. An exhaust fluid control device may control fluid flow out of the first exhaust opening at the second end of the main plenum, and a by-pass fluid control device may control fluid flow into the by-pass inlet opening of the by-pass plenum. The control devices and a fan may control circulation of cooling fluids through the main plenum.
