What are the maintenance activties in gas turbine?

Maintenance activities in gas turbines typically include regular inspections, cleaning of compressor blades, monitoring and replacing of filters, checking and replacing lubricants, inspecting combustion chamber for leaks or damage, and performing any necessary repairs or adjustments to ensure optimal performance and efficiency of the turbine. Regular maintenance helps to prevent breakdowns and extend the lifespan of the equipment.


What is an redundant gas valve.?

A redundant gas valve is a safety feature in a gas system where two valves are installed in series to ensure that gas flow can be shut off if one valve fails. This redundancy helps prevent gas leaks and potential hazards.


What is high pressure compressor in turbine engine?

In an axial flow turbo fan engine there are two compressors. The first compressor is the low pressure compressor or it can also be referred to as the fan and is the first rotating assembly in the engine located aft of the engine inlet. The second rotating assembly located aft of the low pressure compressor or fan is the high pressure compressor. The basic difference between the low and high pressure assemblies is the amount of air pressure they generate. Low pressure compressors usually have a small number of stages and fewer and larger blades. Whereas the high pressure section has more stages and smaller blades. As the air passes through each stage of the compressors it is squeezed thus the pressure and temperature increase. When the air flow exits the high pressure compressor it is at its highest temperature and pressure generated by the cold section (compressor section) of the engine. Hot section/combustion section is another matter. Keep in mind that there are numerous turbo fan/turbine engines and each one probably will be configured differently as far as the number of stages and blades in each compressor section.

Why do gases have highest rate of diffusion?

Gases have the highest rate of diffusion because gas molecules are far apart from each other, allowing them to move more freely and quickly through a space. In addition, gas molecules have high kinetic energy, enabling them to collide with and overcome barriers more easily than molecules in liquid or solid states.

Why the temperature and the pressure of gas are decreasing after flowing out from turbine?

The gas (working fluid) having flown through the turbine does some work on the turbine, converting its thermal energy into mechanical work produced by the turbine and coming out as an expanding gas with lower temperature and pressure.


How inefficiencies of compressor and turbine affect back work ratio and efficiency of gas turbine?

Inefficiencies in the compressor of a gas turbine cycle increase the back-work ratio and decrease the thermal efficiency of the gas turbine cycle, since they increase the compressor work.

What are the advantages of free turbine engine over gas turbine engine?

A gas turbine engine will usually yield more power by weight than a piston engine. Main downside is that it can't be throttled very well. Energy efficiency isn't all that good to start with, and will drop right down if it has to be operated outside its optimum range.
