Gas Turbines
Performance Test Codes
ASME PTC 22-2014
This Test Code provides directions and rules for conduct and report of results of thermal performance tests for open cycle gas turbine power plants and gas turbine engines, hereafter referred to as gas turbines. The object is to determine the thermal performance of the gas turbine when operating at test conditions, and correcting these test results to Specified Reference Conditions. This Code
provides explicit procedures for the determination of the following performance results:
(a) corrected power
(b) corrected heat rate (efficiency)
(c) corrected exhaust flow
(d) corrected exhaust energy
(e) corrected exhaust temperature
Tests may be designed to satisfy different goals, including absolute performance and comparative performance.
It is the intent of the Code to provide results with the highest level of accuracy consistent with the best engineering knowledge and practice in the gas turbine industry. In planning the test, an uncertainty analysis must demonstrate that the proposed instrumentation and measurement techniques meet the requirements of the Code.
