Can anyone tell about a tutorial on gas turbine operation GE 9FA machine?
I don’t know about the specifics of that engine, but I do know about gas turbines. The basic idea is that you have a centrifugal compressor and a turbine connected to the same shaft. The compressor (powered by the turbine) compresses air and sends it to the turbine. Before it gets to the turbine it is combusted with fuel to increase its temperature and pressure. In the turbine this gas is expanded and cooled while forcing the turbine blades to spin from the flow. The spinning blades spin the shaft which powers the compressor and also yields much more power from the shaft. Here we get usable work through the shaft to rotate equipment like a generator or a car’s driveshaft, etc. There are other variations of a gas turbine where the gasses are allowed to escape the turbine without losing too much heat and pressure. The turbine is designed to spin enough to power the compressor, but the rest of the gases are allowed to escape at high velocity. This is the basis of a jet engine because thes
