    30 MW
    Marine Gas Turbine
    GE’s 30 MW marine gas turbine is based on the industry
    standard-setting 25 MW marine gas turbine. Its main
    features are increased power (20%) compared to the 25
    MW unit, the same high availability and reliability, and an
    even higher efficiency (lower SFC). As in the case of GE’s
    25 MW gas turbine, the 30 MW unit’s simple modular
    design provides for easy maintenance with its split Performance

    The primary difference between the two gas turbines is
    the addition of one stage of compressor blades forward Exhaust gas flow 189 lb/sec (85.9 kg/sec)

    compressor has an increased pressure ratio to 23.1:1 losses: inlet/exhaust 4/6 inches (10/15 centimeters) water
    from 18:1 of the 25 MW marine gas turbine.
    Aft of the 30 MW gas turbine compressor is the fully
    annular combustor with externally mounted fuel nozzles;
    a two-stage air-cooled high-pressure turbine which
    drives the compressor and the accessory-drive gearbox;
    and a six-stage aerodynamically coupled, low-pressure
    power turbine which is driven by the gas generator’s high
    energy exhaust gas flow. The increase in power
    warranted several design changes in the existing 25 MW
    power turbine. The overall flow function was increased
    11% to account for the higher airflow. Stage 1 and Stage
    6 blades are optimized for aerodynamic efficiency to
    keep the power turbine at its previously high level of
    efficiency. The power turbine rotor has been
    strengthened for the higher torque and potential energy
    of the 30 MW marine gas turbine. Pre-wired, pre-piped
    and factory-tested for easy installation, the 30 MW
    module weighs just 48,090 pounds (21,859 kilograms). It
    requires only 338 x 108 x 120 cubic inches of ship space
    (28.2 x 9 x 10 feet) (7.16 x 2.74 x 3.05 meters). The inlet
    duct flow area is 57 square feet (5.35 square meters) and 30 MW Marine
    the exhaust flow area is 36 square feet (3.3 square Gas Turbine Module
    meters).
