GTAC – Gas Turbine Air Cooling
Maximize Gas Turbine Power Output using a modular Adiabatic Cooling Chiller System built for the maximum operational efficiency.
With rising energy costs and shortages around the world, the power industry continues to seek innovative solutions to these problems.
The demand for energy worldwide continues to rise faster than generating capacity, and the deregulation of the electric power industry has created demand for products that will make power producers more efficient.

Gas turbines are used for various industrial applications, such as simple and combined-cycle power generation plants, mechanical drives, and district heating.
From an environmental point of view, it important that turbines run as efficiently – and produce as few emissions – as possible.
In the current economic climate, anything that increases productivity, and hence profit, is clearly welcome. Today there are several ways to improve gas turbine output.
Ensuring gas turbines run at maximum efficiency is a primary goal for operators.
In terms of gas turbine efficiency, the effect of air density is well known: higher density of air intake increases mass flow rate, which consequently results in improved turbine output and efficiency.
Air density is inversely proportional to temperature, meaning that rising temperatures decrease air density and therefore reduce gas turbine efficiency and power.
A chilling system for gas turbine inlet air is a beneficial option for installations where high ambient temperatures are common.
With inlet air cooling a gas turbine will have a higher mass flow rate and pressure ratio, yielding an increase in turbine output power and efficiency.
