Gas Turbine Combustion Air Filtration “Its impact on Compressor Efficiency and Hot End Component Life”

This paper discusses the use of HEPA filtration technologies to reduce fouling of compressor blades and consequential power loss. The compressor of a gas turbine consumes a significant amount of energy during operation; consequently, the efficiency of the compressor is very important to maintain optimum performance and has a huge impact on the machine thermal efficiency, power output and its long term component health.

Sustainability and Filtration 2010 - Presentation Barry Kellar of Fruedenberg Filtration Technologies

Barry Kellar, President of Freudenberg Filtration - North America, was a key note speaker on “Sustainability” at Filtration 2010 in Philadelphia. Part of this presentation is devoted to the Villedon eee.sy or energy efficiency enhancement system. Fruedenberg not only furnishes the gas turbine inlet filters but also the cooling of the air entering the turbine based on vapor absorption technology. Waste heat from the system is used as the energy source, so capacity increases of up to 22 percent are achieved without parasitic power consumption.
