Turbochargers are an effective means to reduce NOx emissions from combustion in reciprocating engines and are widely used throughout the gas transmission industry. Calculating performance requires collecting accurate readings from the turbocharger at the operating location, without skew in the measurements due to the instrument installations. Relating measured and calculated conditions to performance maps then requires correcting the actual data to the standard temperature and pressure that are indicative of the data on turbocharger performance maps. The material that is presented in this short course demonstrates the procedures that are necessary to correctly measure turbocharger-operating conditions to calculate turbocharger performance and compressor and turbine efficiencies. These procedures and techniques were formally endorsed by the NGML Industrial Advisory Committee in January 2003. The procedures account for heat transfer between the turbocharger and the oil, cooling water, and atmosphere, and the energy consumption and production of the turbocharger. This short course will then discuss the importance of correcting conditions as they relate to performance maps and creating compressor and turbine performance maps. The presentation material will include several solved examples for a variety of engineering fundamentals that are necessary to fully understand and determine turbocharger performance.
