Gas Turbine

Gas Turbine is a powerful demonstration apparatus widely used in physics and engineering laboratories to study the principles of energy conversion, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics. It provides students with hands-on experience in understanding how thermal energy from combustion is transformed into mechanical work, which in turn can be used to generate power.

Product Information:-

The objective of this lab is to understand the basic principles of gas turbines and to observe how they convert fuel energy into mechanical work. Students will learn about thermodynamics, energy conversion, and the components of a typical gas turbine system. Gas turbines operate on the principle of the Brayton cycle, a thermodynamic cycle that describes the operation of the engine. The process involves compressing air, mixing it with fuel, combusting the mixture, and then expanding the hot gases through a turbine to produce mechanical work. This lab will explore each stage of the cycle and its associated components.

The section cut model is constructed of light and strong metal showing air intake, axial flow, double stage compressor, fuel supply, combustion chamber, turbine rotar, jet thrust, exhaust etc. Gas turbines are versatile engines with widespread applications in various industries. Through this lab, students gain insight into the operating principles of gas turbines, learning about thermodynamics, energy conversion, and engine performance. 

Key Features:-

• Educational Value: Demonstrates the working principle of real-world jet engines and power plants.
• Construction: Consists of a compressor, combustion chamber, turbine wheel, and exhaust system, typically mounted on a sturdy base for lab use.
• Functionality: Compressed air mixed with fuel is ignited in the combustion chamber, producing high-velocity gases that drive the turbine.
• Observation Points: Clear access to input/output parameters such as pressure, temperature, and rotational speed, making it ideal for experimental studies.
• Durable Design: Made with precision components to ensure safe and reliable operation in a classroom or laboratory setting.
