Inlet Air Cooling Systems Improve Gas Turbine Performance

Tapping waste heat for source, the chillers are energy-efficient and sustainable means of industrial cooling!

Grid independence and lesser maintenance of absorption cooling solutions render them the perfect means of achieving inlet air cooling and hence enhancing the efficiency of compressors and gas turbines.

?Inlet Air Cooling (IAC) is a system for cooling inlet air to improve the output of gas turbines, engines, and compressors in hot and humid climates. As well as, reduce fuel consumption.?

?It is a fact that turbines and compressors operate less efficiently in hot and humid climates, due to the heat and humidity of the air intake.?

Higher ambient temperatures have a low density of air and hence affect?the performance of gas turbines and compressors.

A proper cooling system in place cools the hot air to an optimum temperature as it enters the inlet of a gas turbine, engine, or compressor increasing efficiency and performance by utilizing the waste heat generated inside the plant.?

Hence, absorption cooling solutions are the perfect fit for gas turbine and compressors operators seeking to improve plant output and efficiency increase at reduced operations costs.

?While inlet air cooling can be achieved by methods such as evaporative cooling, fogging and vapor compression, vapor absorption proves to be the best of all with maximum benefits and minimum shortcomings to it.

?Improve efficiency;

• Gas turbine and compressor capacity increase between 18 % and 25 %?
• Can reach lower temperatures than a wet bulb, easily achieves ISO conditions?
• High efficiency, even with high humidity?
