A new system for preventing condensate and precipitate icing of gas turbine inlet systems has been developed. This system uses a combination heat exchanger/moisture separator called an Anti-Ice Moisture Separator (AIMS) to provide icing protection without the need to heat the inlet air to 0 C or above. Turbine exhaust gas heats the AIMS surfaces and thereby prevents ice from forming on them. Turbine inlet air passing over these surfaces is heated by convection. No mixing of exhaust gas with inlet air occurs. Condensate icing is prevented by heating the air enough to prevent it from falling below the dew point temperature anywhere in the inlet system. Precipitate icing is prevented by separating most water droplets from the inlet air and evaporating the rest before they impact and freeze on cold surfaces. The AIMS system has successfully prevented turbine inlet icing in temperatures as low as −22 C (-8 F) during field tests. It is anticipated that AIMS systems will be able to prevent inlet icing at any ambient temperature that may be encountered.
