MECHANICAL ENGINEERINGIntroduction
The gas Turbine is a power plant that has found increasing service in past 40 years as a power generation plant and as a mechanical drive for other turbomachinery like pumps and compressors. Its compactness, low weight, and multiple fuel application make it a natural power plant for offshore platforms. The last 20 years has seen a large growth in Gas Turbine Technology, new coatings, and new cooling schemes. This with the conjunction of increase in compressor pressure ratio has increased the gas turbine thermal efficiency from about 15% to over 45%.
The utilization of gas turbine exhausts gases, for steam generation or for heating applications, advances the gas turbine application and increases the combined cycle power plant efficiency up to 60%, making it as the obvious choice in comparison with other power plant options.
Pushing the gas turbine power plant to the limits, high compression ratio, and high firing temperature make it more susceptible to failures and required a very effective monitoring system plus a very effective and complicated control and protection systems.
Understanding the performance characteristics, steady and transient operation of GT is a must to achieve more availability and reliability of the plant. It requires deeper knowledge and understanding of the function of different components of the gas turbine plant, plus the auxiliary systems which responsible for lubrication, seals, and cooling to enable troubleshooting the GT better and preventing failures of gas turbines.
Objective
At the end of the course, the delegates will be able to:
- Describe the different gas turbine cycles and their features.
- Identify the types of gas turbines based on its technology.
- Describe the most important factors affecting the gas turbine performance.
- Identify gas turbine configurations.
- identify major components/assembly and their function.
- differentiate between single-shaft and two-shaft gas turbines.
- describe key parameters affecting gas turbine performance.
- describe basic control and protection systems used in gas turbines.
- perform troubleshooting and suggest solution for common problems in gas turbines.
- list typical maintenance procedures and inspection techniques

Methodology
A highly interactive combination of lectures and discussion sessions will be managed to maximize the amount and quality of information and knowledge transfer. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions and motivating everybody to find the right answers. You will also be encouraged to raise your own questions and to share in the development of the right answers using your own analysis and experiences. Tests of the multiple-choice type will be made available on a daily basis to examine the effectiveness of delivering the course.
Very useful Course Materials will be given.
