TurboTuneEN

One of the main issues with turbochargers in the country’s industries is the limitation in their production capacity in hot weather conditions, as well as the decline in their performance over time and the inability to compensate for this decline after repairs (due to the use of low-quality blades made by manufacturers other than the original turbine manufacturer). In this regard, Turbotek has relied on its design knowledge and experience in analyzing dual-shaft gas turbines to present an upgrade plan called Turbotune. The Turbotune plan addresses the challenge of exhaust gas temperature (T7) from the turbines on hot days by adapting the turbine to warm conditions. This plan increases the production capacity and efficiency of the engine in hot weather conditions. The upgrade is both hardware and software-based and can be implemented on the gas unit in less than 48 hours. By using this plan, the operating temperature of the exhaust from the gas turbine will reach a higher maximum allowable value at relatively higher ambient temperatures, and it will have the capability to produce more power under the same exhaust gas temperature conditions. Given Turbotek’s ability to design gas turbines, there is a possibility for the integrated implementation and modification of systems and equipment in this plan. Therefore, in addition to examining the impact of adapting the turbine to warm conditions on the performance of the gas turbine, its effects on other sections will also be analyzed based on structural considerations and equipment layout, as well as potential impacts on the production process and performance of the gas turbine.
