🔍 Key Concepts

• Effects of fouling and deposits in a gas turbine compressor on airflow and pressure ratio • Relationship between compressor efficiency, fuel consumption, and gas temperature • How restricted airflow affects combustion temperature and turbine condition

💭 Think About

• If airflow into the combustor is reduced by deposits, what happens to the air-fuel ratio for the same power output? • Would the turbine generally need more or less fuel to maintain power when the compressor is dirty? • How can hotter-than-normal combustion gases affect turbine blade condition over time?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option describes an effect that goes in the opposite direction of what a dirty, fouled compressor would cause. • Check which options clearly relate to reduced airflow and hotter combustion gases, typical of compressor fouling. • Verify which choice describes a change that would usually be seen as an efficiency improvement, and ask if compressor fouling normally improves efficiency.
