Course overview
If properly maintained, the gas turbine can be a power plant's most valuable asset. However, just like any other generation asset, the technician must be able to identify systems and subsystems to keep it running at peak efficiency.
The Gas Turbine Air System training course focuses on several of an air system's subsystems. This online course covers:
- Air inlet systems
- Cooling air and sealing air
- Exhaust temperature reference
- Simple cycle exhaust
- Combined cycle exhaust
Gas Turbine Air Systems is part of the Combustion Turbine Fundamentals training series.
