Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Glossary of Terms and Acronyms SOV ñ Shut-Off Valve SPARE PART ñ See FRU. SPV ñ Smart Proportional Valve used to control the fuel flow into the turbine engine. Used in a high-pressure fuel system, or low pressure in conjunction with FB-RFC. STAND ALONE - Operating with the MicroTurbine load not connected to the utilityís power distribution grid or operating when that grid is not active. SWEET GAS ñ Natural gas with less than 95 ppm of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) will be defined as sweet gas suitable for use in the Capstone MicroTurbine system. Tamb SENSOR ñ A sensor the measures the inlet temperature of the MicroTurbine. This data is supplied to the controller. TCP/IP ñ Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. TET ñ Turbine Exit Temperature. The temperature of the exhaust gas, as measured by the thermocouple, at the exit of the turbine rotor. THRUST BEARING ñ A compliant foil bearing deigned to have axial load capacity. The bearing is comprised of multiple levels of under-springs and an aerofoil. The under-springs are of two (2) types: support and springs. The MicroTurbine employs a dual bearing arrangement; forward thrust bearing and aft thrust bearing. Each thrust bearing has load capacity in one direction. TLA ñ Top Level Assembly. The configuration that defines the modules and components that comprise a MicroTurbine Generator System. TURBINE ROTOR ñ Also known as a radial inflow turbine. The turbine rotor recovers energy from the combustion gases once the gas has flowed through the turbine nozzle. When the gases, with increased velocity, impinge on the blades, they impart a force that keeps the rotor in motion allowing it to drive the compressor impeller and generator. UCB ñ See User Connection Bay. UCBE ñ User Connection Bay Extended UCBEE - User Connection Bay Extended and Expanded (with additional features). UIP ñ User Interface Port. UL ñ Underwriters Laboratory. UPS ñ Uninterruptible Power Supply. USER COMMUNICATIONS PORT (OR USER PORT) - A Dsub9 RS-232 connector in the UCB accepts commands (i.e., run, stop, load), and reports operational data using Capstone specified communications protocol. A modem and analog phone line may be connected to the port for remote operations and data recovery. The user port may be connected to the customerís computer, or to a modem that relays information and commands to a remote site. The operation of the MicroTurbine may be controlled from the user interface port. 400002-001 Rev A (Apr 2002) Page 21 of 22 This information is proprietary to Capstone Turbine Corporation.
