Abstract
This article discusses five steps for evaluating a gas turbine inlet air filtration system. The first step to evaluate an inlet filtration system is to study the operating environment. It is important to understand what must be removed from the air by the filtration system before evaluating the existing system. Once the operating environment is defined, the existing filtration system can be evaluated. Third step is the maintenance, which is an important part of any system. It ensures that the system will stay in an operable condition and perform as required. There are several tasks which, if performed consistently and correctly, can ensure that the filtration system operates properly. Fourth step is the upgrades, which should be considered if the operator finds deficiencies in the current filtration system. The fifth step is completing a lifecycle cost analysis. This analysis quantifies the cost and performance of a system in monetary terms to obtain a lifetime cost of the system. The lifetime costs between two different system options can be directly compared.
