Abstract

Methods of determining a desired sensor probe location in a closed loop emissions control (CLEC) system of a gas turbine engine are provided. One method includes determining, at different locations, a plurality of temperature contour profiles for exhaust flowing through an exhaust duct, selecting an emissions component entrained in the exhaust to be measured, and determining a desired sensor probe installation location based on the emissions component to be measured and based on the plurality of temperature contour profiles.
