ASME PTC 51

ASME PTC 51 – Gas Turbine Inlet Air-Conditioning Equipment

This Code provides procedures for in situ testing ofinlet air-conditioning systems (cooling/heating) as theyapply to gas turbines in simple, cogeneration, and combined-cycle applications.

The intent of this Code is to provide results withthe lowest reasonably achievable uncertainty consistentwith the best engineering knowledge and practicein the industry, such that appropriate instrumentationand measurement techniques and procedures be usedto determine the following performance variables, asapplicable:

• performance factor
• carryover
• auxiliary consumption (power/thermal)
• temperature change
• water discharge
• water consumption
• distribution/stratification
• pressure drop

This Code also provides procedures for the calculationof the results, and for the correction of the resultsto reference conditions, as a measure of gas turbine inletair-conditioning systems performance.
