  • Patent number: 10247096
    Abstract: An inlet cooling system unit that is fluidly coupled to a gas turbine can include a filter module configured to filter inlet air, a chiller module configured to cool inlet air, and a framework. The framework is sized and shaped to define a filer module receiving region which supportably receives the filter module, and a chiller module receiving region which supportably receives the chiller module, the chiller module receiving region located below the filter module receiving region such that the chiller module is received below the filter module. Related gas turbine inlet cooling systems are also provided.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20120023940
    Abstract: An air-cooled condenser system for an Organic Rankin Cycle power plant includes a support structure formed of a plurality of truss members that are coupled together in a spaced apart orientation to horizontally support a plurality of side-by-side condenser bundles. A plurality of fans are likewise supported by the truss members and are disposed above the condenser bundles to draw air across the condenser bundles. Each fan extends over at least two condenser bundles and preferably at least three bundles. An air plenum is provided to establish a minimum separation between each fan and its corresponding condenser bundles so as to fluidly couple each fan to at least two condenser bundles, while at the same time decoupling the air inlet and air exit for the system, thereby minimizing air recirculation.
