Abstract: A lift system and method for installation and removal of a combustion can from a turbomachine are provided. The lift system includes a rail, a portable cart assembly, and a slide assembly. The portable cart assembly includes a combustion can cradle assembly coupled to a telescopic member. The combustion can cradle assembly is configured to removably couple to a combustion can of the turbomachine. The slide assembly is removably couplable to the portable cart assembly and the rail. The slide assembly is movable with the portable cart assembly along the rail to adjust a position of the combustion can cradle assembly.

Abstract: A system includes an annular track that surrounds the turbomachine. The annular track includes an upper rail portion and a lower rail portion removably coupled to one another. The system further includes a drive assembly operably coupled to the annular track. The drive assembly includes a drive chain that extends along the annular track. The system further includes a plurality of carts rotatably coupled to the annular track and connected to the drive chain such that operation of the drive assembly alters a circumferential position of the plurality of carts with respect to an axial centerline of the turbomachine. The system further includes a plurality of combustion can cradle assemblies each coupled to a respective cart of the plurality of carts. Each combustion can cradle assembly of the plurality of combustion can cradle assemblies is configured to removably couple to a combustion can of the one or more combustion cans.

Abstract: An air supply and conditioning system for an inlet system of a gas turbine includes an air processing unit having an inlet configured to receive compressed air from a compressor of the gas turbine. The air processing unit includes a heat exchanger that is downstream from the inlet. A vortex cooler is disposed downstream from the inlet of the air processing unit. The vortex cooler is in fluid communication with the heat exchanger and with an outlet of the air processing unit. The system further includes a self-cleaning filter that is disposed within a duct of the inlet system. The self-cleaning filter is in fluid communication with at least one of the outlet of the air processing unit or an outlet of the vortex cooler.
