연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

The present disclosure describes a micro gas turbine flameless heater, in which the heat is generated by burning fuel in a gas turbine engine, and the heater output air mixture is generated by transferring the heat in the gas turbine exhaust to the cold air drawn from the ambient environment. The present disclosure also describes component geometries and system layout for a gas turbine power generation unit that is designed for simple assembly, disassembly, and component replacement. The present disclosure also allows for quick removal of the rotating components of the gas turbine engine in order to reduce assembly and maintenance time. Furthermore, the present disclosure describes features that help to maintain safe operating temperatures for the bearings and structures of the gas turbine engine power turbine. Lastly, the present disclosure describes features of a fuel capture system that allow the injection of wellhead gas, which typically is a mixture of gaseous and liquid fuels, into the combustion chamber, and also describes methods of incorporating afterburners in the gas turbine engine, such that the gas turbine engine system can use wellhead gas to power equipment and reduce emissions from flaring in oil and gas applications.
