Download or read book Design and Performance Features of the Marine LM1600 Gas Turbine written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The GE LM1600 gas turbine is a lightweight, efficient prime mover for commercial and military marine applications. This gas turbine is a derivative of the F404 fighter jet engine whose mission objectives strongly emphasize reliability and ease of maintenance in an austere marine environment. These objectives were important to the U.S. Navy because the F/A-18 fighter jets powered by this engine are based on aircraft carriers where parts warehousing and maintenance capabilities are limited. To achieve these objectives, component designs were simplified and the total number of components was substantially reduced. These features and its modular construction make the LM1600 attractive for marine applications. Numerous marine propulsion system configurations are possible, including various combinations with diesel engines and steam gas turbines as well as options for shaft or electric drive. The first commercial installation of the marine LM1600 gas turbine is in progress and sea trials will commence in late 1990. This paper describes the design, performance, installation, and maintenance features of the marine LM1600 gas turbine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Operation, Maintenance, and Repair of Land-Based Gas Turbines provides a toolkit for practitioners seeking to make technoeconomic decisions on life extension of power turbine equipment. The work describes essential degradation modes affecting critical components and proven methods of restoration. Sections discuss key elements of life extensions for aging units and components, together with critical reviews of available methodologies. Coverage includes advanced nondestructive testing methods essential for effective life extension programs, including lessons learned from firsthand experience working with multiple machine designs, classes and operating conditions. The final sections cover a body of solutions intended to refocus ORM processes on overcoming the shortfalls caused by volatilities and system restructuring. Reviews best practices for practitioners seeking to make decisions on gas turbine maintenance, repair and operations Analyzes components and major sections in terms of functionality, critical features, residual properties and service caused damages Explains the applicability and limitations of special processes and advanced non-destructive testing methods
Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis· seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) *at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac· tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 20 (thesis year 1975) a total of 10,374 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 239 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. The organization of Volume 20 is identical to that of past years. It consists of theses titles arranged by discipline and by university within each discipline.
