A system includes an exhaust diffuser system having an axial-radial diffuser and a transition duct. The axial-radial diffuser includes an inlet, an outlet, an axial diffuser portion between the inlet and the outlet, and a radial diffuser portion between the axial diffuser portion and the outlet, wherein the inlet is configured to couple to a gas turbine system. The transition duct is coupled to the axial-radial diffuser, wherein the outlet is disposed inside of an intake portion of the transition duct, and the transition duct includes a discharge portion configured to couple to a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG).

System having axial-radial exhaust diffuser and method of use

A traverse mechanism for measuring flow characteristics in a fluid flow path is provided. The traverse mechanism includes a rotating member configured to rotate 360 degrees about an axis in a circumferential direction. The traverse mechanism also includes a probe coupled to the rotating member. The probe extends in a radial direction relative to the axis through a portion the rotating member into the fluid flow path. Rotation of the rotating member enables the probe to map or measure one or more flow characteristic in the fluid flow path 360 degrees about the axis in the circumferential direction.

Probe-based circumferential traversing system

Turbine nozzle segments with trimmed leading edges are disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, a turbine static nozzle airfoil includes: an arcuate concave leading edge; and a substantially flat trailing edge.
