Subject to change without prior notice.The information in this document containsgeneral descriptions of the technical optionsavailable, which may not apply in all cases.The required technical options should therefore be specified in the contract.
Benefits can include:■■ Power increase of up to 25 MW, depending on the frame and operational requirements*
■■ Up to 3 % gas turbine heat rate im-provement, depending on the frame*
■■ Higher exhaust energy for increased steam production
■■ Greater operational flexibility.
These benefits can lead to the ability to produce more power in peaking and base load operation.
Wet Compression is designed to be large-ly independent of the ambient relative humidity. While somewhat higher perfor-mance improvement can be available in a very hot dry climate, Wet Compression can also be effective at times of high humidity. Wet Compression is applicable for the following frames:■■ SGT5-2000E (V94.2)■■ SGT6-2000E (V84.2)■■ SGT6-3000E (W501D5A)■■ SGT5-4000F (V94.3A)■■ SGT6-4000F (V84.3A)■■ SGT6-5000F (W501F-FC+)
Scope of supplyBesides a comprehensive original equip-ment manufacturer assessment of the gas turbine and the involved power plant components, the scope of this modern-ization includes:■■ Compressor inlet Wet Compression water distribution system with nozzles
■■ Inlet duct treatment■■ Wet Compression pump skid■■ Piping between pump skid and distribution system
■■ Compressor coating*
■■ Compressor upgrade*■■ Modification of existing control logic■■ Gas turbine customization (e.g. axial trust compensation and compressor drains where applicable)
Installation and commissioning of Wet Compression can require from one to three weeks depending on plant and gas turbine configuration. We offer a full range of field service capabilities to help you manage your maintenance and outage schedules.
ReferencesMore than 45 Wet Compression systems are on various frame types in operation worldwide.
Examples include**:■■ More than 35 units in the Americas■■ Two units in Egypt■■ Two units in Australia■■ Eight units in the United Arab Emirates
