Anti-icing upgrade
Inlet icing can occur on LM series turbines at temperatures less than 40 F° (4.4 C˚) and humidity greater than 65%. Ice formation can lead to restrictions in the inlet system resulting in possible damage to package and turbine equipment.
Benefits
What can upgrading do for you?
- Anti-icing system prevents ice related internal damage to engine blades, reducing turbine downtime and repair times.
- Anti-Icing system controls are automated to run only when ice is detected.
- Increased efficiencies and power outputs.
How we get you there
- Waste heat from the combustion inlet air is used to heat the inlet air by 10 to 40 F° above ambient temperature, preventing icing.
- The waste heat recovery system is a skid placed alongside the turbine, consisting of:
- Pump system using a closed loop of glycol-water
- Chilling coils
- Air-filter house
- Heat exchanger connected to the combustion inlet air waste heat recovery unit (WHRU)
- Control logic allows system to be idle if icing is not present and to activate when icing detected. There are 4 total states: idle, anti-icing, air-purge, and full purge.
