The main distinguishing feature is a new power turbine with rotation speed rated at 3 000 rpm. The reduced turbine rotation speed allows to drive a generator without matching reduction gearbox and therefore to enhance reliability of gas turbine and to reduce total operational costs.GTES can be used as the main or stand-by power supply, independently or in parallel with other electric power supply sources. There is a provision of exhaust gas heat recovery in a waste-heat boiler, either hot water or steam. Natural gas as per GOST 5542 (OST 51.40) or petroleum gas is used as fuel
This new engine is developed within the scope of cooperation of OJSC "Aviadvigatel" and Pratt & Whitney company (USA). |
