Most efficient simple-cycle gas turbine with lowest CO2 in mechanical drive and power generation
Benefits
Best-in-class (over 44%) simple-cycle efficiency in mechanical drive; 55,000 tons less CO₂ per year versus its main competitor
Free power turbine for maximum operating flexibility
Engine swap capability for minimum maintenance downtime
Features
44:1 pressure ratio; intercooled cycle reduces compressor work by 30%
Free power turbine has a wide speed range (2,880 to 3,600 rpm)—so no gearbox needed in either 50/60 Hz applications
DLE 2.1 technology (25 ppm NOx emissions)
Applications
LNG
Industrial
Combined heat and power
Overview
With more than 70 units working in power generation with over 800,000 combined operating hours, the LMS100PB+ gas turbine provides the highest simple-cycle efficiency in the world thanks to its unique intercooling technology.
SO conditions (15°C, sea level, 60% relative humidity, zero inlet and exhaust pressure losses), with natural gas fuel. Efficiency and power in power generation configuration at generator terminals. Package dimensions exclude driven equipment.
Intercooling technology
The LMS100PB+ gas turbine is the only modern industrial gas turbine to use intercooling technology, which reduces the compressor work by 30%, and enables a total pressure ratio of 42:1, while maintaining compressor exit temperature well below the material capabilities. This characteristic makes the LMS100PB+ the most efficient simple-cycle gas turbine in the world.
