Filed:

Jun 16, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/139670

Inventors:

Jianxiong Chen - Greer SC, US
Eric P. Cavender - Troy OH, US
Bobby Kalloor - Huber Heights OH, US

Assignee:

Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc. - Sidney OH

International Classification:

F04B 41/06

US Classification:

417 3, 417312, 62510

Abstract:

A compressor system including a first compressor and a second compressor. The first and second compressors each include a shell, a compression mechanism disposed within the shell, and a drive member adapted to drive the compression mechanism. A discharge tube assembly interconnects the first compressor and the second compressor, and the discharge tube assembly includes an inlet portion adjacent the first compressor that is inclined relative to another inlet portion adjacent the second compressor. The inlet portion that is inclined is adapted to prevent a backflow of oil through the discharge tube assembly.

Appl. No.:

09/947073

Inventors:

Jianxiong Chen - Sidney OH, US

International Classification:

F04C018/04
F04C018/356

US Classification:

418/055100, 418/063000, 418/270000

Abstract:

A discharge valve is provided for implementation between a discharge pressure zone and a discharge chamber. The discharge valve is operable between an open position for enabling fluid flow between the discharge pressure zone and the discharge chamber and a closed position for prohibiting fluid flow between the discharge pressure zone and the discharge chamber. The discharge valve includes a housing defining a cavity and having a flow aperture therethrough. A valve disc is slidably disposed within the housing and is operable for defining the open and closed positions of the discharge valve. The valve disc includes a contoured body for reducing stresses experienced within the valve disc and improving fluid flow therearound.

Abstract:

A control system for a gas turbine includes a processor. The processor configured to access one or more operating parameters of the gas turbine. The operating parameters are configured to specify how the gas turbine operates. The processor is configured to predict a rate of degradation to one or more parts of a compressor of the gas turbine due to one or more effects on the parts by operating the gas turbine according to the one or more operating parameters. The processor is configured to send an alert to an electronic device based at least in part on the rate of degradation of the compressor.
