In this paper, a calculation code, in house developed by the Authors, able to evaluate the performance of a gas turbine with all possible fogging strategies (high pressure fogging, overspray and interstage injection) is presented and discussed. The code has a flexible structure and can be applied to evaluate the performance of every commercial gas turbine model. The aim of the developed calculation code is to overcome the limits of the most widespread commercial software, specially with regards to the two phase flow compression process simulation. The developed calculation code was validated on results available in literature showing a good agreement with experimental and theoretical results.

Abstract
In this paper, a calculation code, in house developed by the Authors, able to evaluate the performance of a gas turbine with all possible fogging strategies (high pressure fogging, overspray and interstage injection) is presented and discussed. The code has a flexible structure and can be applied to evaluate the performance of every commercial gas turbine model. The aim of the developed calculation code is to overcome the limits of the most widespread commercial software, specially with regards to the two phase flow compression process simulation. The developed calculation code was validated on results available in literature showing a good agreement with experimental and theoretical results.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
