Embodiments of the present disclosure include an oil degradation byproducts removal system. The oil degradation byproducts removal system includes a plurality of electrostatically-charged drum assemblies configured to pass through an oil flow. The oil degradation byproducts removal system is configured to be disposed within an accessory module of a turbine engine system.

Rotary oil degradation byproducts removal system

A gas turbine inlet heat exchange coil assembly includes a gas turbine inlet housing formed to include an inlet and an outlet and a flow path therebetween. A plurality of adjacent coils are located in proximity to the inlet, and moveable between a closed operative position where the coils are aligned substantially in a plane so as to maximize resistance to flow along the flow path, and an open inoperative position where said coils are individually rotated substantially 90&#xb0; such that the coils lie in individual, parallel planes so as to minimize resistance to flow along the flow path.

Retractable gas turbine inlet coils

A system for conditioning air flow to a gas turbine includes a filter housing and a conditioning media inside the filter housing to adjust the temperature of the air flowing through the filter housing. At least one of a depth or a density of the conditioning media varies across the filter housing. A method for conditioning air flow to a gas turbine includes flowing air through a filter housing connected to the gas turbine and flowing the air across a conditioning media in the filter housing. The method further includes conditioning the air flow to reduce the temperature difference of the air exiting the filter housing across a dimension of the filter housing.
