Abstract: A method and system for enhancing power generated by a gas turbine system. The system may include a turbine inlet cooling system and a wet compression air fogging system. Air entering the gas turbine system is cooled by the turbine inlet cooling system and the wet compression air fogging system. The wet compression air fogging system may increase the mass flow rate of the air entering the gas turbine system at the compressor.

Abstract: A method of augmenting power output by a gas turbine engine includes channeling fuel into the gas turbine engine at a predetermined fuel flow rate to generate a first power output. Steam is then injected into the gas turbine engine at a first steam flow rate, and a firing temperature bias is determined based at least on the first steam flow rate. The predetermined fuel flow rate is then adjusted based on the determined firing temperature bias such that the gas turbine engine generates a second power output greater than the first power output.

Abstract: A combined water-wash and water injection cooling system for a gas turbine engine including a water delivery system, an air delivery system, and a controller configured to couple to the gas turbine engine, the water delivery system, and the air delivery system to access and execute one or more routines. The water delivery system includes one or more spray nozzles to spray water upstream and directly in front of a compressor of the gas turbine engine. The air delivery system is configured to provide air from the compressor to the water delivery system so that the one or more spray nozzles spray atomized water into the compressor of the gas turbine engine during a cooling mode to cool the compressor. During an on-line water wash mode, air from the air delivery system to the water delivery system is turned off to enable the one or more spray nozzles to spray non-atomized water into the compressor of the gas turbine engine to wash the compressor.

Abstract: Described herein are embodiments of systems and methods for oxidizing gases. In some embodiments, a reaction chamber is configured to receive a fuel gas and maintain the gas at a temperature within the reaction chamber that is above an autoignition temperature of the gas. The reaction chamber may also be configured to maintain a reaction temperature within the reaction chamber below a flameout temperature. In some embodiments, heat and product gases from the oxidation process can be used, for example, to drive a turbine, reciprocating engine, and injected back into the reaction chamber.
