Small-scale gas turbines, known as Microturbines, represent an
exciting new development in gas turbine technology. They can run in
size from small, human-scale machines down to micro-sized
mini-machines that can barely be seen by the naked eye. They also
run a great diversity of fuel types, from various types of
commercial gases to waste-generated gases. This new book by
industry expert Claire Soares will fully describe the various types
of microturbines, their applications, and their particular
requirements for installation, maintenance and repair. It will
explain how a microturbine the size of a refrigerator can power an
entire school, hospital or small factory, which is particularly
useful for onsite, remote installations. The book will also show
how microturbines can be paired with one or more fuel cells to form
a hybrid energy source, or can be teamed with any source of
distributed power, such as a mall hydro-turbine or a wind turbine.
Moreover, the reader will learn how microturbines can run on a
variety of fuels that are far cruder than those required by most
standard gas turbines; they can be made to run, for instance, using
gas from a landfill or biomass source. The reader will find
detailed information on costs, specifications, and maintenance and
repair guidelines. Ample references and resources will provide the
reader with tools for finding manufacturers and product
specifications for their own particular needs.
.Covers major categories of microturbines, including factors common
to their design, installation, operation, optimization,
maintenance, and repair
.Invaluable guidance on market factors and economics affecting
microturbines and their applications, particularly for distributed
power generation
.Provides current case studies showing microturbines used in hybrid
systems with fuel cells and other types of power generation
systems"
