Two Shaft Gas Turbine Study Unit

Product Description

The Two Shaft Gas Turbine Study Unit is a cutting-edge tool that provides a thorough framework for understanding the complex mechanics and underlying ideas of two-shaft gas turbines. This equipment is a useful tool for engineers, researchers, and students since it enables hands-on investigation into the fields of power generation, propulsion, and energy efficiency. The Two Shaft Gas Turbine Study Unit, which was especially created to serve academic institutions, offers students an interactive platform to understand the fundamental ideas guiding gas turbine operation, thermodynamics, and the subtleties of energy conversion processes. The power generating, aviation, and propulsion industries can directly benefit from the useful insights gained by this study unit.

The Two Shaft Gas Turbine Study Unit consists of a wheeled frame made of steel, of a panel with mimic diagram carrying the measurement instruments and of a base where the main components are installed, that is the combustion chamber, the turbocharger assembly, the power turbine and the alternator. The exhaust gases produced by the combustion of the compressed air/gas mixture are made to expand first through the turbine of the turbocharger assembly in order to supply the energy necessary to compress the air and then through the power turbine coupled to the alternator through a toothed belt. The electric energy generated by the alternator is dissipated on a resistive load.

The Two Shaft Gas Turbine Study Unit is available in two versions:

• Basic unit in manual version.
• Computerized version unit which allows, thanks to the electronic transducers and suitable Software, to display and/or print on personal computer the tables of results and diagrams of the experiments.
