Gas Turbines: Fundamentals,
Maintenance, Inspection & Troubleshooting
Introduction:
Gas turbine
engines are generally classified based on the type and nature of application,
size and location. This chapter contains a general overview of the different
types of gas turbines in use, and also a brief introduction to the various
components comprising the gas turbine engine in addition to discussing the
concept of heat recovery in combined cycle gas turbine plants. Gas turbines in
general are broadly classified into five categories.
This course
gives a solid review of gas turbines with a focus on fundamental
thermodynamics; gas turbine components; materials of construction; bearing,
seals and lubrication systems; fuels and fuel supply systems; combustion air
filters; control systems and instrumentation and operations and maintenance.
