From LMS100 project borne a new aero-derived turbine, the today most powerful on the market, it is able to supply for each package a power of 100 MW combined to high thermal efficiency in simple cycle. The machine is a components combination derived from aeronautical engines of CF6-80C2 series, engines used on Boeing 747 and 767, and parts of industrial gas turbines of Frame MS6001FA series.
Main features:
- Max Power: 112 MW
- Thermal Efficiency: through 50%
- Ignition duration cycle: Just 10 min to reach max power
- Modular design
- Feeding: natural gas or liquid fuel
- Proposed configurations: Simple cycle, combined cycle and co-generation
Avio is just GE partner from the turbine development and designed following components and modules:
- IPT Module – Intermediate Pressure Turbine
- PT – Power Turbine disks and vanes (5 stages)
- Power Turbine rotor blades
In addition to the above listed parts Avio is responsible to supply following components:
- Accessory Gearbox
- Inlet Gearbox
- Front Frame
- Spline Adapter
