Inlet air fogging systems for offshore gas turbines
When it comes to gas turbine inlet air fogging solutions, Mee Industries stands above the rest. With over 80% of the installed capacity of inlet fogging systems, Mee Industries is the inlet fogging industry leader.
Mee Industries has performed over 700 successful projects for more than 100 clients, including most major oil and gas companies. We have completed fog system installations in many countries around the world.
The MeeFog™ system has the following benefits:
- Increases output by 20% or more
- Improves heat rate up to 5%
- Reduces NOx emissions up to 30%
- Up to 100% evaporation efficiency
- Easy retrofit and fast installation
- Fog inter-cooling gives additional boost
- Reduces fuel consumption
Fog evaporative cooling
Direct turbine inlet fogging (cooling) is a method of cooling where demineralized water is converted into a fog of very small water droplets by means of special atomizing nozzles operating at 2,000psi (138bar) pressure. The fog provides evaporative cooling when it evaporates in the air inlet duct of the gas turbine.
This technique allows 100% evaporation effectiveness so it is possible to attain 100% relative humidity at the gas turbine inlet. The inlet air is, therefore, cooled to the ambient wet bulb temperature.
Overspray fogging systems
High-pressure inlet fogging can also be used to create a compressor intercooling effect by allowing liquid fog droplets to enter the compressor, where they evaporate when the air is heated by compression. This technique is called overspray fogging or wet compression.
Injecting liquid fog into a gas turbine compressor at a rate of 2% of the air mass flow can provide a power boost of as much as 10%. Mee Industries has made many installations of systems that are used for both evaporative cooling and overspray fogging. The combined power boost can be as high as 25%.
Fog systems for the offshore industry
Mee Industries’ fog system technology makes it possible to produce 20% more power output from gas turbines that are used to generate electricity or to compress natural gas for transportation, re-injection wells, etc.
Offshore MeeFog systems are specially designed to be compact and lightweight. Integral water treatment systems are also available. Our design team can customize systems to suit your needs and requirements.
