Problems solved by technology

A known disadvantage of cleaning with known reverse pulse jet cleaning systems is that the portion of the filter closest to the tube sheet experiences little or no effective cleaning
Other parts of the filter are often overwashed and can be damaged

Abstract

A cleaning system (100) for a gas turbine inlet filter (40) mounted to a tubesheet (24). The filter (40) defines an upstream side (46) at which particulates are separated from a fluid stream passing through the filter and a downstream side (48) substantially free of the particulates. The cleaning system (100) comprises a blowpipe (124) for supplying a pressurized fluid. A one-piece nozzle (140) is made from a tubular member having a substantially constant cross-section extending along the length of the member. The nozzle (140) is permanently attached to the blowpipe (124) at a first end portion (142). The nozzle (140) is in fluid communication with the blowpipe (124) to direct a cleaning pulse of the pressurized fluid from a second opposite end portion (144) into the downstream side (48) of the filter (40) to dislodge particulates into the upstream side. An aspirator (180) is formed in the nozzle (140) at an upstream location spaced from the second end portion (144) of the nozzle. The aspirator (180) enables an additional volume of fluid to be delivered from the second end portion (144) of the nozzle (140) than is delivered from the blowpipe (124) to the first end portion (142) of the nozzle. A diffuser (200, 300, 400) is fixed to at least one of the blowpipe (124) and the nozzle (140). The diffuser (200, 300, 400) directs a portion P1 of the cleaning pulse to a proximal portion (50) of the filter (40) located adjacent to the tubesheet (24).

Description

[0001] Cross references to related applications [0002] This application is a partial continuation of the US Patent Serial No. 11 / 493,237 filed on July 26, 2006, and the application is incorporated herein by reference. Technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to systems and methods for cleaning filters. In particular, the present invention relates to a system and method for reverse pulse jet cleaning of a filter in a gas turbine inlet housing. Background technique [0004] It is known to use fabric filters to separate particles from flowing fluids. Over time, particles tend to accumulate on the filter media. This accumulation of particles increases the resistance to flow through the filter. Because the increased resistance prevents the fluid from passing through the filter and / or requires more power to achieve flow through the filter, it is undesirable to increase the resistance to convection. [0005] In some known systems, reverse pulse jet cleaning is u...
