Temperatur udara ambient berpengaruh pada performa turbin gas. Temperatur yang tinggi mengakibatkan masa jenis udara menjadi rendah sehingga pada laju aliran udara masuk kompresor lebih sedikit. Teknologi untuk memitigasi permasalahan ini adalah penggunaan Turbine Inlet Air Cooling (TIAC) pada inlet air system turbin gas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendesain air cooler dengan tipe staggered continous finned tube compact heat exchanger pada turbin gas Lm6000 milik PT.X di Karawang. Proses perancangan air cooler dilakukan dengan  menggunakan perhitungan Kern. Data yang dibutuhkan dalam penelitian ini adalah data dimensi maksimum air cooler, data temperatur air pendingin, data pengoperasi turbin gas dan data bahan bakar yang diambil sebelum dan sesudah pemasangan TIAC menggunakan beban turbin gas yang sama yaitu 22 MW. Hasil yang didapat dari proses perancangan air cooler adalah desain air cooler dengan 187 tube bundle dan nilai koefisien konveksi keseluruhan sebesar 35,4 W/m²°C. Analisis performa turbin gas menunjukkan bahwa temperatur inlet low pressure compressor mengalami penurunan rata-rata sebesar 3,5°C, sementara efisiensi siklus rata-rata meningkat sebesar 1,65%. Adapun peningkatan daya bersih rata-rata sebesar 0,496 MW karenanya dapat menghasilkan  penghematan biaya bahan bakar sebesar Rp1.554.257.011 per tahun.

The capability to utilize dry air cooling by which heat is directly rejected to the air atmosphere heat sink is one of the benefits of the supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) energy conversion cycle. For the selection and analysis of the heat exchanger options for dry air cooling applications for the sCO2 cycle, two leading forced air flow design approaches have been identified and analyzed for this application; an air cooler consisting of modular finned tube air coolers; and an air cooler consisting of modular compact diffusion-bonded heat exchangers. The commercially available modular finned tube air cooler is found to be more cost effective and is selected as the reference for dry air cooling.

Abstract In the present study, a compact heat exchanger for cryogenically fueled gas turbine engine applications is introduced. The proposed concept can be integrated into one or various vanes that comprise the compression system and uses the existing vane surface to reject core heat to the cryogenic fuel. The requirements for the heat exchanger are defined for a large geared-turbofan engine operating on liquid hydrogen. The resulting preliminary conceptual design is integrated into a modified interconnecting duct and connected to the last stage of a publicly available low-pressure compressor geometry. The feasibility of different designs is investigated numerically, providing a first insight on the parameters that govern the design of such a component.

The profits that can be gained by use of inlet air cooling on gas turbines has been recognised for quite some time now and the systems installed throughout the world have shown the users in the gas turbine field that cooling indeed can be used to boost power at times when the ambient temperature reaches or exceeds the ISO rating temperature of the gas turbine. Drawback however being that the initial investment asked of the gas turbine user is rather large thus only justifying a cooling system in regions where the outdoor temperatures exceed the ISO rating time and again due to the climate in that region. Lately gas turbine users in colder climates have become interested in power augmentation during their short summer, however there is no justification for an investment like necessary when installing one of the presently available systems on the market. As the question reached us from more and more of our clients it stimulated us to go out and search for a low-investment solution to this problem. This resulted in the world’s first low pressure gas turbine inlet cooling system.

Abstract The finned tube heat exchanger is one of the earliest and most successful discoveries in the process of improving tube heat exchange. This method is still the most widely used of all kinds of tube heat transfer surface enhancement heat transfer methods. It is not only suitable for single-fin tube heat exchangers, which are widely used in power, chemical, petrochemical, air-conditioning engineering and refrigeration engineering. Conventional heat exchanger with smooth tubes can be inspected through the pressure test during the manufacturing process. Finned tubes and finned heat exchangers with inner thread structure have some difficult to pass the water pressure test. The same situation exists in regular inspections. Due to structural reasons, it is difficult to carry out regular surface inspections[1]. For these two situations, two different testing methods are required to ensure quality. This article introduces in detail the methods of inspecting finned tubes and finned heat exchangers. Hierarchical comparison of alternatives in hydrostatic testing project, and the eddy current detection technology of the finned tube under the condition of in-service air cooling. The far-field eddy current method is chosen for inspection. And by comparing the standard sample tube, it is mainly used to adjust the sensitivity of the eddy current detector and ensure the accuracy of the test results[2]. The results show that the eddy current detection technology can be more accurate and reliable. The corrosion of the finned tube under service air cooling is detected, and a reliable basis is provided for judging the use of the finned tube and finned heat exchanger[3].

The heat transfer and pressure drop performance of heat exchangers fabricated from helically wrapped finned tubes with an equilateral triangular pitch arrangement are reported for one through five rows. Two finned tube types were tested, one with a “T” foot and the other with an overlapped “L” foot. The dimensions of both finned tubes were similar and were typical of those used in air-cooling applications. The tube diameter was 25.4 mm; the fin height was 15.87 mm; the fin number was 0.41/mm; and the fin-tip clearance was 6.35 mm. The fin base thickness was 0.38 mm and was tapered to half the base thickness at the fin outside diameter. No difference in the thermal performance of the two finned tube types could be detected. Both the heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop were found to increase with the number of tube rows. These results were then compared to other published data.
