  • Assessing the impact of cost optimization based on infrastructure modelling on CO2 emissions 
    Harris, Irina; Naim, Mohamed; Palmer, Andrew; Potter, Andrew; Mumford, Christine (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2010-05-01)
    Traditionally, logistics design is driven by a need to reduce costs and improve customer service. Recently, the environmental concerns from transport have been increasingly discussed. The traffic levels and associated ...
  • Corrosion of potential first stage blade materials in simulated supercritical CO2 
    Norman, Boma Phoebe; Al Baroudi, Hisham; Potter, Andrew; Mori, Stefano; Simms, Nigel; Kulkarni, Anand; Sumner, Joy (Taylor and Francis, 2023-05-04)
    Global power consumption is predicted to double by 2050, notably driven by the transportation and energy sectors necessitating limitations of emissions. Due to its compact turbomachinery, better thermal efficiency, and ...
  • The effects of water vapour on the hot corrosion of gas turbine blade materials at 700 °C 
    Potter, Andrew; Sumner, Joy; Simms, Nigel (Taylor & Francis, 2022-03-28)
    Future developments in power generation are likely to require gas turbines to operate in novel combustion environments. The level of water vapour in the turbine’s gas stream is one variable that may change as a consequence. ...
  • Further investigations into alloy induced acidic fluxing 
    Potter, Andrew; Sumner, Joy; Simms, Nigel (Taylor and Francis, 2023-06-04)
    Gas turbine materials often feature precipitates containing refractory metals to enhance their mechanical strength. This can make them susceptible to alloy-induced acidic fluxing whereby refractory elements increase the ...
  • Hot corrosion in industrial gas turbines. 
    Potter, Andrew (Cranfield UniversitySWEE, 2019-02)
    Future gas fired power stations are likely to use gas turbines operating both at higher temperatures to improve thermal efficiency, and fire cheaper fuels containing more deleterious contaminants. Additional changes ...
  • The hot corrosion of nickel-base disc alloys 
    Potter, Andrew (Cranfield University, 2011-11)
    The efficiency of a jet’s engines has a direct affect on its economic and environmental impact through the quantity of aviation fuel consumed and CO2 emitted. These factors are becoming increasingly important due to ...
  • Impact of deposit recoat cycle length on hot corrosion of CMSX-4 
    Sumner, Joy; Aksoul, Quentin; Delgado, Joemar; Potter, Andrew; Gray, Simon (Springer, 2017-04-05)
    Hot corrosion causes significant problems for both aerospace and power generation industries, where the combination of high temperature, corrosive gases, and contaminants severely limits component operating lifetimes in ...
  • Modeling gas turbine materials’ hot corrosion degradation in combustion environments from H2‐rich syngas 
    Sumner, Joy; Potter, Andrew; Simms, Nigel J.; Oakey, John (Wiley, 2016-09-07)
    Components of gas turbines (such as blades, vanes, combustor cans) exposed to combustion environments at high temperature are susceptible to hot corrosion attack. To successfully plan maintenance and to determine whether ...
  • The role of superalloy precipitates on the early stages of oxidation and type II hot corrosion 
    Potter, Andrew; Sumner, Joy; Nigel, Simms (2017-10-07)
    To meet materials challenges encountered in gas turbines, superalloys have been developed for high temperature, strength, oxidation and corrosion resistance. One strengthening method is using refractory metal additions to ...
