It is the process of hot gas production during f uel combustion. Basic operation of gas turbines is called the Brayton cycl e.\n\nThey are used to power aircraft\, trains\, ships\, electric generato rs\, pumps\, etc. It is advantageous to use gas turbines for power generat ion because they have a high power-to-weight ratio\, are smaller than most other engines\, show smooth main shaft rotation\, are more reliable\, hav e lower peak combustion pressures\, etc.\n\nTheir regular maintenance is e xtremely critical because it increases system efficiency\, extends life-cy cle of the turbine\, reduces maintenance costs\, etc.\n\nThis Xcelerate Tr aining Institute course will empower you with detailed knowledge and under standing of gas turbines\, including their operation\, performance\, maint enance and troubleshooting.\n\nThrough this course\, you will build your s kill set to cater to all aspects concerning gas turbines\, a pre-requisite for senior roles in processes involving gas turbine operations. This cour se will prepare you to undertake higher roles and responsibilities not jus t in your organization but any other organization.\n\nLearning Objectives\ n\n detailed information and knowledge about gas turbines\, including the ir operation\, performance\, maintenance and troubleshooting\n the requir ed skills to successfully handle processes involving gas turbines\n the a bility to make appropriate\, timely decisions related to the choice of mat erial and type of turbine as per the intended purpose\n the necessary con fidence and knowledge to train other professionals to efficiently work wit h gas turbines\n the experience and exposure to review current systems an d make enhancements to improve operational efficiency and demonstrate skil l and talent\n the confidence to face all challenges when working with ga s turbines and not let these impact the organization\n the ability to con tribute to operational efficiency and reduction in operational and mainten ance costs\, thereby demonstrating potential to undertake higher roles and responsibilities\n the capabilities to ensure adherence to all standards set out for working with gas turbines\n a sense of pride contributing to organizational development through reduced costs and increased operationa l efficiency\n\nTraining Methodology\n\nCourses at Xcelerate Training Inst itute are delivered with a focus to ensure complete relevance of the train ing content to the intended audience. For this reason\, the course content is closely reviewed and checked for changes\, if any\, as per the intende d audience.\n\nA highly experienced professional deliver the training usin g audio-visual presentations.
