GT26 Operational Flexibility Improvements
Overview of Extended Load Ranges
The challenge
• At low part load, the SEV Burner
temperature with all burners in
operation is low and causes
incomplete combustion resulting in
increased CO emissions
The solution
• Sequential switch-off of SEV
burners at lower loads
• Reduced power output while
keeping SEV burner temperature
on high level
Optimized low CO emissions

Fuel Gas Flexibility
• Wobbe Index variation tolerance of over +/-15% (31-52 MJ/m3 absolute)
• C2+ variation tolerance up to 18% vol.
• C2+ standard operation covers H2 contents of 5% vol.
• Hydrogen contents of 15% vol. can be handled
Liquid Fuel Flexibility
• Wide experience range within the GT fleet
• Boiling ranges from Naphtha to Kerosene to Oil#2 can be covered
• On GT26 fuel switchover (gas oil) at high loads commercially proven

Proven benefits of Sequential Combustion:
• Sub 25vppm NOx emissions at plus 1500°C hot gas temperature
• Turn Down to < 25% GT load
• Parking at < 5% GT load
• Fuel Flexibility – Wobbe Range 31-53MJ/m3, ±15%, LHV 29-50MJ/kg
CPSC – additional benefits:
• High pressure cycle removed, eliminating 340 hot gas parts and 1’500 structural parts
− Reduced compressor exit temperature by 90K (160ºF)
• Service orientated GT concept enabling fast hot gas path inspection of 13 days
• Improves rig to engine transferability of combustor behaviour

GT36 Combustor Constant Pressure Sequential Combustion – Function
• CPSC (SEV) advantage on trade-off between NOx and CO
− Sequential burner technology allows very low residence times, with good CO burnout, without
staging.
− Sequential combustion (with higher secondary burner inlet temperatures and depleted inlet air
O2) permits short residence times for secondary combustor and potential for ultra low NOx.
− NOx emissions at part load are minimal due to the absence of pilot/staging needs.
