A Performance Seeking Control (PSC) can realize the operations advantageous enough to accomplish the economy, safety, engine life, and environmental issues by reducing the control margin to the extremity together with selection of the control variables so that various kinds of parameters will be minimized or maximized. This paper describes the results obtained from the simulation study concerning the PSC aiming at the efficiency enhancement, power improvement, and longer engine life of a two-spool regenerative gas turbine engine having two control variables. By constructing the dynamic simulation of the engine, steady-state characteristics and dynamic characteristics are derived; then, a PSC system is designed and evaluated. It is concluded that the PSC for the gas turbine of this type can be realized by the turbine inlet temperature control.

For more than twenty years the Royal Danish Navy (RDN) has been using gas turbine engines for propulsion of fast patrol vessels as well as frigates. This paper, which is the result of a joint effort by the Royal Danish Navy, Aalborg Vaerft Shipyard, and General Electric Company USA, describes how the propulsion system design was developed using previous RDN gas turbine system experience. A detailed description of the ship, the selection of machinery, and design of the propulsion configuration, including the LM2500 gas turbine module, is included. The three Royal Danish “KV-72” corvettes of the NIELS JUEL class have now been in operation for almost three years. Since the start-up of the NIELS JUEL machinery in November 1978 the CODOG propulsion plants aboard this class have accumulated more than 8,000 running hours, of which over 1,500 hours have been in the gas turbine or “sprint” drive mode. Operational experience with the GE LM2500 gas turbines is also described.

This paper describes a real-time or faster-than-real-time simulation of gas turbine engines, using an ultra high speed, multi-processor digital computer, designated the AD100. It is shown that the frame time is reduced significantly without any loss of fidelity of a simulation. The simulation program is aimed at a high degree of flexibility to allow changes in engine configuration. This makes it possible to simulate various types of gas turbine engines, including jet engines, gas turbines for vehicles and power plants, in real-time. Some simulation results for an intercooled-reheat type industrial gas turbine are shown.

There are numerous gas turbine applications in power generation and mechanical drive service where power drop during the periods of high ambient temperature has a very detrimental effect on the production of power or process throughput. Several geographical locations experience very high temperatures with low coincident relative humidities. In such cases media evaporative cooling can be effectively applied as a low cost power augmentation technique. Several misconceptions exist regarding their applicability to evaporative cooling, the most prevalent being that they can only be applied in extremely dry regions. This paper provides a detailed treatment of media evaporative cooling, discussing aspects that would be of value to an end user, including selection of climatic design points, constructional features of evaporative coolers, thermodynamic aspects of its effect on gas turbines, and approaches to improve reliability. It is hoped that this paper will be of value to plant designers, engineering companies, and operating companies that are considering the use of media evaporative cooling.

The FT9 Marine Gas Turbine development program was initiated in August 1973 by the Naval Sea Systems Command to fulfill, in part, the requirement for a family of gas turbine engines ranging in power from 1000 to 30,000 hp. The FT9 satisfied the requirement to develop a 30,000 hp class marine gas turbine. The FT9 is a derivative of the Pratt & Whitney Aircraft JT9D engine, which powers Boeing 747, DC-10 and A300 aircraft, and of the FT4 industrial gas turbine engine. The FT9 specification also required development of an on-line engine condition monitoring system. A rigorous development test program showed the FT9 has met all specified U.S. Navy requirements and demonstrated its suitability for use in U.S. Navy combatant ships.

This paper describes a computer program which has been developed to simulate industrial gas turbine engines to aid the design and application of fuel controllers. It explains the program structure and, as an example, gives the application of the program to the modelling of a simple two shaft industrial gas turbine engine. A brief discussion of the value of the implementation language, C++, is also given.
