Generators convert the mechanical output of a turbine into electrical power. Power plants take that produced power and then transmit it into the grid. Turbines can be powered solely by—or blends of—gas, steam, air, and even hydrogen. What’s the science and technology behind it all?

The main parts common to all gas turbine engines form the power-producing part (known as the gas generator or core) and are, in the direction of flow: a compressor-driving turbine. Additional components have to be added to the gas generator to suit its application.

As hot combustion gas expands through the turbine, it spins the rotating blades. The rotating blades perform a dual function: they drive the compressor to draw more pressurized air into the combustion section, and they spin a generator to produce electricity.

A gas turbine is a combustion engine at the heart of a power plant that can convert natural gas or other liquid fuels to mechanical energy. This energy then drives a generator that produces the electrical energy that moves along power lines to homes and businesses.

A gas turbine is a type of IC engine that uses compressed gas to generate mechanical power. This mechanical power is further used to run a gas generator which converts this mechanical power into electricity. It is known as a “gas turbine” because it uses gas as a working fluid.

Whether you're generating power for entire cities, electrifying your own operations, or are facing an emergency electricity shortage and need power fast, we can act as a versatile gas turbine supplier, ready to quickly provide a range of solutions.

With land-based industries, gas turbines can be used in either direct drive or mechanical drive application. With power generation, the gas turbine shaft is coupled to the generator shaft, either directly or via a gearbox “direct drive” application.

2023年7月31日 · Gas turbines are divided into three categories based on how they use power: 1. Small Sized Gas Turbine. It produces less energy than 2 MW. The centrifugal compressor in the turbine is powered by a radial inward flow turbine. 2. Medium Sized Gas Turbine. This turbine generator has a power rating of between 5 MW and 50 MW.
