The Gas Turbine
The thermal block of the GT26B Gas Turbine contains the compressor, two combustion chambers, a high-pressure and a low-pressure turbine, inside a common outer housing. The main feature of the GT26 Gas Turbine is sequential combustion - two combustors that operate simultaneously and sequentially, providing higher thermal efficiencies with lower temperatures and emissions. The 22-stage compressor supplies air for the combustion process, and for cooling and sealing purposes.
