[Enhancement] Gas turbines and engines as driver #639

Open CKapp-slrconsulting opened 6 months ago

CKapp-slrconsulting commented 6 months ago

I frequently have to calculate atmospheric conditions for engines and gas turbines. It would be very helpful when I select a driver for the generator, pump, or compressor I can get vapor phase, enthalpy density specific humidity based on relative humidity input information on the ambient air going into the gas turbine or engine

Another piece of useful information is being able to get complete thermodynamic information on the gas fuel's composition.

That way I have a first great step describing component and energy of air and fuel going into the gas turbine which si independent of the actual make or brand of the gas turbine.

I would think this is a trivial exercise for DWSIM as you already have the gas property programs integrated, all you have to do is open new energy streams and calculate those.
