Cooling method for gas turbines. Refer to the Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power (Jan. 2005)

study of a high-pressure inlet fogging method for a gas turbine engine, presented in Exercise 8.46 (p. 420).

Recall that the heat rate (kilojoules per kilowatt per hour) was measured for each in a sample of 67 gas turbines augmented with high-pressure inlet fogging. In addition, several other variables were measured, including cycle speed (revolutions per minute), inlet temperature

(°C), exhaust gas temperature (°C), cycle pressure ratio, and air mass flow rate (kilograms per second). The first and last five observations of the data are listed in the following table.
