What is the output of the turbine?

What is the output of the turbine?

To calculate electrical power or turbine power, you have to know the hydraulic power, which depends on the flow and how far the water falls. So, the hydraulic output power is equal to gravity times flow (in litres per second) times the pressure or height difference (in metres of water column).

What is the flow in steam turbine?

In simple terms, a steam turbine works by using a heat source (gas, coal, nuclear, solar) to heat water to extremely high temperatures until it is converted into steam. As that steam flows past a turbine’s spinning blades, the steam expands and cools.

How much horsepower does a steam turbine produce?

Steam turbines are made in a variety of sizes ranging from small <0.75 kW (<1 hp) units (rare) used as mechanical drives for pumps, compressors and other shaft driven equipment, to 1,500 MW (2,000,000 hp) turbines used to generate electricity.

Which turbine is tangential flow turbine?

A Pelton turbine is a Tangential flow turbine.

What is the turbine pressure ratio?

Engine Pressure Ratio (EPR), in a jet engine, is the ratio of the turbine discharge pressure divided by the compressor inlet pressure.

Does turbine lower pressure?

There is no pressure change of the fluid or gas in the turbine blades (the moving blades), as in the case of a steam or gas turbine, all the pressure drop takes place in the stationary blades (the nozzles).

What is the nominal speed of a sgt-600 gas turbine?

The 2-stage uncooled free power turbine offers you a nominal shaft speed of up to 7,700 rpm. For mechanical drive, it may operate at 50 to 105% of the nominal speed. The blades use interlocking shrouds for extra robustness. Package solutions Thanks to the compact architecture, the SGT-600 package offers you a small footprint.

How much power does a 2×1 gas turbine produce?

For combined cycle, 1×1 or 2×1 configurations are part of the standardized portfolio. Good combined cycle performance: In a 2×1 combined cycle configuration, the power output is 73.3 MW (e) at a net plant efficiency of 50.9%.

How many operating hours does a gas turbine have?

More than 350 units have been sold with over 10 million equivalent operating hours, and 185,000 equivalent operating hours for the fleet-leading gas turbine. Increase in efficiency and production of urea by 11% and ammonia by 9% using the same amount of energy

What are the emission levels of a gas turbine?

The combustor and burner design give world-class emission performance over a wide load range and are capable of ≤ 9 ppmvd NOₓ emission levels. Low emission levels are also received on liquid fuel without need of water injection. (Emissions depend upon site conditions, required load range and other project-specific data.)
