Gas Turbines: Technology, Efficiency and Performance (Engineering Tools, Techniques and Tables)

This book presents current research in the study of gas turbines from across the globe. Topics discussed include techno-economic evaluations of gas turbine repowering systems; in-service degradation of gas turbine nozzles and moving blades; the corrosion characteristics of titanium based alloys and their degradation mechanisms optimisation of a regenerative gas turbine power plant and a discussion of the fluid/solid coupled heat transfer problems in gas turbine applications.
