  • MOISTURE DETECTION SYSTEM FOR GAS TURBINE INLET
    Publication number: 20170292534
    Abstract: The present application describes a gas turbine inlet air system for providing a flow of air to a compressor. The gas turbine inlet air system may include an inlet air water cooling system positioned upstream of the compressor for cooling the flow of air with a flow of water and a moisture detection system positioned downstream of the inlet air water cooling system to detect if droplets of the flow of water pass beyond the inlet air water cooling system in the flow of air towards the compressor.

  • Systems and methods for bypassing an inlet air treatment filter
    Patent number: 8234874
    Abstract: A method of assembling an inlet air filter assembly for use with a turbine engine system. The method includes coupling an inlet hood to an air filter enclosure, such that an airflow path is defined between the inlet hood and the air filter enclosure. A pre-filter is coupled to the inlet hood, such that the pre-filter is positioned within the airflow path. A filter bypass assembly is coupled to the pre-filter for moving the pre-filter from an operating position to a bypass position during operation of the turbine engine system.

  • Chiller Condensate System
    Publication number: 20110232313
    Abstract: The present application provides a chiller condensate system. The chiller condensate system may include a chiller that produces a flow of condensate, a condensate drain system positioned about the chiller to collect the flow of condensate, and a heat exchanger in communication with the condensate drain system for the flow of condensate to flow therethrough.
