Abstract
By being exposed to atmospheric conditions gas turbines are inevitably subjected to sources of fouling. The resulting degradation can be partially recovered by cleaning the compressor. Based on open literature and patents, the different approaches leading to the most advanced method of compressor online washing have been compiled. The origins of online washing and the development trends over the decades are outlined, and the current systems are categorized. The introduction of system categories has been justified by a field survey. Additionally, the main design parameters of online washing systems are summarized.
