Sizing a 30-140 MW Gas Turbine Plant

This document provides specifications for a Siemens SST5-4000 gas turbine used to generate electricity from methane gas. The turbine has 4 stages, operates at 3000 rpm, has a power output of 210 MW, and uses methane gas with a lower heating value of 940 Btu/scf as fuel. Key dimensions include a blade diameter of 311.9 mm, a package height of 4.9 m, and exhaust temperature of 579 degrees C. The turbine is capable of operating between 3000-7000 rpm and converts the methane gas into electricity via its 4 turbine stages.

In This Process, a gas turbine is used as utility to produce electricity and supply

power to for generator. For the utility and sizing we leave it to the vendor. The
methane gas is leaving the combustion with 1039,5 kg/day.
For gas turbine specification, methane data must be completed.

Based on international design standard, the turbin with output power 210 MW,
can be operated with speeds 3000-7000 rpm. Based on rateau turbine, can be known
the enthalphy change per stage is 125 kJ/kg. So the number of stage which needed
for this turbine is


So the turbin use 4 stages.

Politropic cycle efficiencies



But according to Combined Cycle Power Generation ((William B. Retallick,
Consultant, January 2001)), effisiciency of turbin can assumed about 90%.

From the equation of Rateau turbin, we can calculate diameter of blade.
