Objective The primary objective of this experiment is to gain a better understanding of how gas turbines operates, and the parameters which influence their efficiency. Theory Apparatus The Gunt ET972 Small Gas Turbine Demonstration Unit is an educational instrument, designed with ergonomics in mind, and is equipped with a number of displays to convey performance information. Propane is used as the fuel. As small size and a range of options are required in an educational setting, efficiency

However, above about 650oC various forms of metal fatigue

a combination cycle power plant which combines the Rankine (steam) power cycle with a Brayton (gas turbine) cycle. In order to combine these two processes, the combustion gases from the Brayton cycle are actually funneled into a Rankine cycle system. The efficiency gains of the combination were compared and in their presentation they notated that a steam power plant users 11,500 Btu/KWh and a gas turbine uses about 10,500 Btu/KWh but the combination only uses 7,000 Btu/KWh providing them what was
