This study aims to analyze operating performance of a micro gas turbine with the aid of detailed measurements of various system parameters. In addition to embedded measurements, parameters such as exhaust temperatures, engine inlet temperatures and fuel flow rates are measured. Variations in measured data and estimated performance parameters are analyzed. Those data are processed to calculate losses along the power transmission line and the net gas turbine performance (power and efficiency based on the gas turbine shaft end) is isolated from the overall system performance. A method to estimate characteristic parameters such as component efficiencies, based on the comparison between measured and predicted performance data, is suggested and exemplified for the full load condition.

Operation conditions of a reheat cycle gas turbine for a combined cycle power plant was analyzed. Based on measured performance parameters of the gas turbine, a performance analysis program predicted component characteristic parameters such as compressor air flow, compressor efficiency, efficiencies of both the high and low pressure turbines, and coolant flows. The predicted air flow and its variation with the inlet guide vane setting were sufficiently accurate. The compressor running characteristic in terms of the relations between air flow, pressure ratio and efficiency was presented. The variations of the efficiencies of both the high and low pressure turbines were also presented. Almost constant flow functions of both turbines were predicted. The current methodology and obtained data can be utilized for performance diagnosis.

The system parameters of gas turbine engine tend to change remarkably in real operating condition. It means that operators have to consider environment and suitably control fuel flow. The conventional PID controller, however, can not guarantee good control performance in the aspect of system parameter change. This paper, therefore, proposes a scheme for integrating PID control and fuzzy technique to obtain the good performance of gas turbine engine speed control on the whole operating range. The effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy PID controller is verified through computer simulation.

This study simulated the effect of steam injection on the performance and operation of a gas turbine combined heat and power (CHP) system. A commercial simple cycle gas turbine was analyzed. A full off-design analysis was carried out to investigate the variations in not only engine performance but also the operating characteristics of the compressor caused by steam injection. Variation in engine performance and operation characteristics according to various operation modes were examined. First, the impact of full steam injection was investigated. Then, operations aiming to guarantee a minimum compressor surge margin, such as under-firing and partial steam injection, were investigated. The former and latter were turned out to be relatively superior to each other in terms of power and efficiency, respectively.

Increasing demand for natural gas and higher natural gas prices in the recent decades have led many people to pursue unconventional methods of natural gas production. POSCO-Gwangyang synthetic natural gas (SNG) project was launched in 2010. As the market price of natural gas goes up, the increase of its price gets more sensitive due to the high cost of transportation and liquefaction. This project can make the SNG economically viable. In parallel with this project, KEPCO (Korea Electric Power Corporation) joined in launching the SNG Quality Standard Bureau along with KOGAS (Korea Gas Corporation), POSCO and so on. KEPCO Research Institute is in charge of SNG fueled gas turbine combustion test. In this research, several combustion tests were conducted to find out the effect of hydrogen contents in SNG on gas turbine combustion. The hydrogen in synthetic natural gas did not affect on gas turbine combustion characteristics which are turbine inlet temperature including pattern factor and emission performance. However, flame stable region in ${\Phi}$-Air flow rate map was shifted to the lean condition due to autocatalytic effect of hydrogen.

DME (Dimethyl Ether, $CH_3OCH_3$) has highly attracted attention as an alternative fuel for transportation, power generation and LPG substitute owing to its easy transportation and cleanliness. This study was conducted to verify the combustion performance and to identify potential problems when DME is fuelled to a gas turbine. GE7EA gas turbine of Pyong-Tak power plant was selected as a target to apply the DME. Combustion tests were conducted by comparing DME with methane, which is a major component of natural gas, in terms of combustion instability, $NO_X$ and CO emissions, and the outlet temperature of the combustion chamber. The results of the performance tests show that DME is very clean but has a low combustion efficiency in low load condition. From the results of the fuel nozzle temperature we have ascertained that DME is easy to flash back, and this property should be considered when operating a gas turbine and retrofitting a burner.

항공기 부품은 다양한 고도의 운용조건을 만족해야 하므로 고고도 성능평가는 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 가스터빈 엔진의 고공 점화특성을 확인하기 위하여 실물형 보조동력장치를 바탕으로 축소형 모델 연소기를 설계, 제작하여 22,000ft에 해당하는 대기온도 조건을 모사, 점화실험을 수행하였다. 저온 환경 모사를 위해 공기 공급배관에 열교환기를 설치하였고 냉각제로는 드라이아이스를 사용하였다. 실험결과 연소기로 공급되는 공기의 온도가 낮아질수록 점화가 가능한 공기과잉 구간은 감소하였음을 확인하였다.

IGCC용 가스터빈 연소기의 중발열량 가스 연료 대체성 및 호환성 검토를 위한 전산유체역학적 연구를 수행하였다. 연소기 전산해석 방법은 기존의 상용 CFD코드의 해석체계에 중발열량 가스연료의 화학반응 모델 및 fuel NOx 모델등을 추가적으로 결합하여 구성하였다. 본 해석방법을 이용하여, 천연가스와 IGCC 용 대체가스(석탄가스, 중잔사유 가스) 연소시의 연소기 내부 유동속도, 화학종, 온도 분포들과 화염 형상 및 거동을 비교하였고, 더 나아가 NOx 생성특성과 터빈과의 matching 조건도 분석하였다. 이러한 전산해석결과들을 바탕으로, 본 연구는 중발열량 가스를 대체연료로 사용하는 IGCC용 가스터빈 연소기의 설계 개선 및 재설계 방향을 제시하였다.
