Compared to other power technologies, Solar gas turbines have a number of advantages.
A gas turbine engine is a type of internal combustion engine. Essentially, the engine functions as an energy conversion device, transforming energy stored in the fuel into useful mechanical energy in the form of rotational power. The term “gas” refers to the ambient air taken into the engine and used as the working medium in the energy conversion process.
Takes in outside air and compresses it.
Fuel is added to the pressurized air and is ignited.
Converts the energy from high velocity gas into rotational power through expansion.
Delivers rotational power to the driven equipment.
Directs the low emission spent gas out of the turbine section.
