Features

• Axial exhaust layout – Instead of downward or upward discharge, exhaust is released along the turbine axis. This reduces exhaust losses and improves mechanical efficiency.
• Direct condenser connection – Enables simple alignment and connection between turbine and condenser, leading to lower installation cost.
• Reduced civil construction – Requires shallower foundations; foundation concrete reduced by ~30%, building floor area about ¼, and building volume about ⅓ compared to conventional setups.
• Shorter construction period – Smaller foundations and simpler design shorten installation time and cut construction costs.
• Easier maintenance – Flat layout allows easy access and simplifies maintenance and inspections.
• Higher energy efficiency – Exhaust flow analysis shows minimized flow losses in the exhaust hood, resulting in greater efficiency.
• Opened-state accessibility – Rotor and upper-half case can be easily opened and inspected.
• Typical specifications example:
• Output: 67,000 kW
• Speed: 3600 RPM
• Inlet: 1555 psia × 1000°F (≈111.5 bar × 538°C)
• Exhaust: 1.35 psia (≈0.097 barA)
• 2 bleed extractions
