Development and validation of a twin shaft industrial gas turbine performance model

Gas turbine performance is very responsive to ambient and operational conditions. If the engine is not operating at its optimum conditions, there will be high energy consumption and environmental pollution. Hence, a precise simulation model of a gas turbine is needed for performance evaluation and f...
