Abstract: A system includes a gas turbine enclosure. The system also includes a gas turbine engine disposed in the gas turbine enclosure, wherein the gas turbine engine is configured to output an exhaust flow. The system further includes an exhaust driven eductor configured to draw an air flow through and out of the gas turbine engine enclosure using the exhaust flow. The system yet further includes an exhaust stack coupled to the gas turbine enclosure, wherein the exhaust stack is configured to output a mixed flow of the exhaust flow and the air flow. The system still further includes a diffuser plate disposed within the exhaust stack, wherein the diffuser plate is configured to provide a homogenous flow distribution for the mixed flow downstream of the diffuser plate.

Abstract: A diffuser assembly for a ventilation system is disclosed herein. The diffuser assembly may include a boundary defining an interior of the diffuser assembly. The diffuser assembly also may include at least one inlet to the interior of the diffuser assembly. The at least one inlet to the interior of the diffuser assembly may be in fluid communication with at least one ventilation fan. Moreover, the diffuser assembly may include an outlet from the interior of the diffuser assembly. The outlet from the interior of the diffuser assembly may be in fluid communication with an engine enclosure. In this manner, the outlet from the interior of the diffuser assembly may be configured to provide a flow of ventilation air from the at least one ventilation fan as a substantially uniform flow of ventilation air within the engine enclosure.

Abstract: A system includes a bleed system configured to direct a bleed flow from a high pressure region to a low pressure region. The bleed system includes a valve configured to control the bleed flow through the bleed system and a staged bleed conduit configured to incrementally depressurize the bleed flow. The staged bleed conduit includes an inlet coupled to the valve, a first stage configured to depressurize the bleed flow that is coupled to the inlet, a second stage configured to depressurize the bleed flow that is coupled to the first stage, and an outlet coupled to the second stage. The outlet is configured to direct the bleed flow to the low pressure region. The inlet, the first stage, the second stage, and the outlet are disposed along parallel axes.

Abstract: Systems are provided that may be used to diffuse and deflect the flows of gas into a plurality of gas flows. A gas flow, for example, exhaust gas, may be diffused, that is, spread out by the diffuser. A flow deflector may be coupled to the diffuser so that the gas flow may result in a plurality of gas flows. By diffusing and allowing a plurality of gas flows, improved gas flows may be achieved.
