Abstract: Analysis of the field experience of 60 users shows that the typical average gas turbine output power loss attributable to inlet air quality is approximately 3.5 percent. The loss is minimized by proper maintenance practices and by the choice of appropriate filtration equipment. The contract effort was composed of two major sections: Literature Search to establish the state-of-the-art of gas turbine inlet air filtration Field Experience Survey to determine the extent and economic impact of particular composition and concentration on gas turbine compressor fouling and to document the inlet filters ufilized at selected sites, including their effectiveness, reliability, and maintenance requirements. This paper summarizes the results of the Field Experience Survey. See A.G.A. Report Gas Tkrbine Intake Air Quality (A.G.A. Catalog No. L51558) for details of the literature search.
