Cogeneration with gas turbine engines
Heat Recovery Systems and CHP, 1993Abstract Cogeneration, simply, is the generation of energy for one process from the excess energy supplied to another process. Cogeneration, then, is nothing more than an economically sound method for the conservation of resources [1]. Thus, the benefits from the use of cogeneration may be cited as energy conservation, environmental improvement and ...

Gas Turbines and Engine Simulations
2016Abstract Turbulent combustion is a complex phenomenon combining the random nature of turbulence with the nonlinearity of chemistry. As a major process for energy production, in particular in propulsion systems, turbulent combustion must be perfectly controlled to ensure maximum efficiency with minimum environmental impact in terms of both fuel ...

The Selection of a Gas Turbine Engine
1981Aircraft makers, oil companies, power utilities and a few other industries already have extensive experience in selecting engines to suit their requirements. Some other industries with power and heat requirements have not yet adopted gas turbine engines but could possibly benefit from their use.

Gas Turbine Engines: Fundamentals
2012The gas turbine engine and its conventional variants (turbojet, turbofan, turboprop, and turboshaft) provide an effective means for thrust and power delivery for a wide number of atmospheric flight applications. In this chapter, the design and performance analysis of gas turbine engines will be introduced, with the turbojet engine as the primary focus (

Volume 6: Turbomachinery, Parts A, B, and C, 2008
This article discusses the various noise sources associated with gas turbine engines and the computational aeroacoustics techniques used for predicting the aerodynamically-generated sound. Given a sound source, several tools are presented for predicting the corresponding radiated sound.

Applications for Gas Turbine Engines
1981Gas turbine engines are most generally known for their use in aircraft (section 2.1)[9] but they are also used in surface transportation (section 2.2) and increasingly in stationary applications. The latter field encompasses the greatest variety of configurations and purposes and is still expanding, whereas the aviation field is consolidating.
