2014 WINTER

In gas turbine plant – it works on brayton cycle where the heat added & heat rejected at constant pressure. It consists of compressor, combustion chamber & a turbine. The efficiency of Brayton cycle rotor cycle is same for but efficiency is of gas it temperature & pressure is increasing. High temperature & pressure require for ignition & fuel consumption for bray ton cycle. It is not possible in Oto cycle because the heat added & rejected at constant volume so bray ton cycle is most suitable than Otto cycle for gas turbine plant.

Displacement is the product of piston displacement and working stroke per minute is bared on low pressure only and the amount air passing through the other cylinder for two stage compressor. When free air wave from low pressure cylinder to high pressure cylinder through intercooler there is reduction of volume of air because of perfect cooling so free air delivered is less than displacement of compressor.

Role of following lubricant additives 1. Zinc ditinophosphate: - Zinc ditinophosphate serves as an anti – oxidant and anticorrosive additive. 2. Fatty acids: - This type of additives prevents rusting of ferrous engine parts during and form acidic moisture accumulation during cold engine operation. 3. Organic Acids: - This type of additives improves the detergent action of lubricating oil. 4. Ester: - To lower the pour point of lubricating oil. 5. Silicon polymers: - This additive serves as Antifoam Agent. 6.
