  1. 1. Automated High-Temperature Pressure Sensor Verification and Characterization

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Algirdas Bartkevicius; [2023]
    Keywords : Pressure sensor; sensor verification; sensor characterization; piezoelectric sensor; dynamic pressure sensor;

    Abstract : Gas turbines are widely used in power generation. Monitoring pressure variations in the combustion chamber allows for real-time assessment of the turbines performance, and can be used to optimize combustion processes, leading to reduced emissions. READ MORE

  3. 2. An overview of the development and potential of ceramic materials for use in micro gas turbines

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Alexander Ahlqvist Fehr; [2023]
    Keywords : Gas Turbines; Ceramics; Micro Gas Turbines; Gas Turbiner; Keramik; Mikro Gas Turbines;

    Abstract : This paper presents an analysis of the potential of Micro Gas Turbines (MGT) with regards to performance, economic and durability considerations. The performance potential was assessed by calculating the cycle efficiency based on the Brayton cycle and the mechanical efficiency of the expansion turbine. READ MORE

  4. 3. Correlation of numerical simulation methods and failure criteria to experimental burst test

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära

  5. 4. Component State Prediction Based on Field Data : Master Thesis in Energy System Engineering

    University essay from

    Author : Linnea Johansson; [2017]
    Keywords : Gas Turbine; Prediction Model; Failure model; Field data; Environmental attributes; Weibull Distribution; Bayesian Statistics;

    Abstract : This master thesis is part of a big project at Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery (SIT) in Finspång aimed to use the operation experience available at SIT to predict the state of the gas turbines in general and some mechanical components in particular. The objective of the thesis is to continue the development of a prediction model based on experience data for estimations of a components lifetime. READ MORE

  6. 5. Simulation of Gas Channel Temperatures during Transients for SGT-800

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Tobias Johansson; [2016]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery has developed dynamic gas turbine models to compute performance parameters such as temperature, pressure, mass flow and power during transients. Results from the current dynamic model correspond to measured data except for gas channel temperatures that change too fast during transients. READ MORE
