    • The Application of Integrated Logistic Support Concepts in Energy Project Planning 
      Meher-Homji, C. B.; Polad, F. S. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
      With the increase in size, cost and strategic importance of energy projects, a structured approach to planning, design, construction and operation is required. Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) is a management concept ...
    • Combustion Gas Turbine Power Enhancement by Refrigeration of Inlet Air 
      Meher-Homji, C. B.; Mani, G. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
      Combustion gas turbines have gained widespread acceptance for mechanical drive and power generation applications. One key drawback of a combustion turbine is that its specific output and thermal efficiency vary quite ...
    • Compressor and Hot Section Fouling in Gas Turbines- Causes and Effects 
      Meher-Homji, C. B. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
      The fouling of axial flow compressors and turbines is a serious operating problem in gas turbine engines. These prime movers are being increasingly used in cogeneration applications and with the large air mass flow ...
    • Gas Turbine Technology, Part A: Overview, Cycles, and Thermodynamic Performance 
      Meher-Homji, C. B.; Focke, A. B. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
      The growth of cogeneration technology has accelerated in recent years, and it is estimated that fifty percent of the cogeneration market will involve gas turbines. To several energy engineers, gas turbine engines present ...
    • Gas Turbine Technology, Part B: Components, Operations and Maintenance 
      Meher-Homji, C. B.; Focke, A. B. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
      This paper builds on Part A and discusses the hardware involved in gas turbines as well as operations and maintenance aspects pertinent to cogeneration plants. Different categories of gas turbines are reviewed such as heavy ...
    • Reliability, Availability and Maintainability Considerations for Gas Turbine Cogeneration Systems 
      Meher-Homji, C. B.; Focke, A. B. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
      The success of a cogeneration system depends upon the system being available, i.e. operating and meeting its demands under expected environmental conditions. A high availability in turn, depends on both Reliability (indicating ...
