What is Overview of Basic Gas Turbine Systems about?
Thermal efficiency is the percentage of the total fuel energy input that appears as the useful work output of a heat engine like a gas turbine. The higher the turbine inlet temperature, the higher the thermal efficiency can be. Ambient air temperature affects efficiency, with about a 1% decrease for every 7°C rise in inlet air temperature. High-alloy turbine materials are susceptible to creep, which causes loss of ductility and strength over time at high operating temperatures.
