  • GAS TURBINE DRIVEN ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM WITH CONSTANT OUTPUT THROUGH A FULL RANGE OF AMBIENT CONDITIONS
    Publication number: 20110210555
    Abstract: A gas turbine compressor (28A, 28B) sized to support respective maximum design points of other gas turbine driven electrical power generating system components (30, 32, 38, 46, 58, 68) during a least dense ambient condition within a design range of ambient conditions. A variable inlet (72) on the compressor automatically modulates to modulate airflow to supply just the amount needed to produce a rated output of the system throughout the full design range of ambient conditions. This safely and economically maintains rated power system output (94) over a full range of ambient conditions.
