Manufacturing and Installation of Aero Derivative Gas Turbine – In line with the Nigerian Industrialization Project
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Industrial
Abstract
Manufacturing is one of the critical stages in industrialization. The three layer knowledge graph of concept, model and decision layer was proposed for the manufacturing of aeroderivative gas turbine. The major components studied and billed for manufacturing are compressor, combustor, high pressure and free power turbine. The engine shall be multi-shaft engine with free spinning turbine, called free power turbine. This implies that the gas generator shaft shall be different from that of the low-pressure turbine shaft. The aero derivative gas turbine shall be compact in nature. Performance requirements of high-power output and safe operation are key consideration. Ceramic matrix composite CMC, high temperature alloy, gray and nodular iron materials shall be employed. Investment casting, foundry, forging welding technologies and Computer Integrated manufacturing system has been investigated for utilization in the manufacturing process.
