DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT AND MANUFACTURING OF A COOLER FOR OIL CONSERVATION IN LUBE OIL VENTILATION SYSTEM OF GAS TURBINES

摘要

The invention relates to a device for oil conservation in lube oil ventilation system uses which is provided with a finned cooler in a water jacket for cooling the lube oil mist being sucked by mist eliminator and condenses the lube oil vapor to form droplets and these droplets fall back in to the lube oil tank. It also reduces the burden on mist eliminator to handle large volumes of lube oil vapor. This invention can be used in lube oil vent system of Gas Turbines, Steam Turbines, Axial and Centrifugal compressors applications.
