H System
GEs H Systemthe worlds most advanced combined cycle system and the first capable of breaking the 60% efficiency barrierintegrates the gas turbine, steam turbine and heat recovery steam generator into a seamless system, optimizing each components performance. Undoubtedly the leading technology for both 50 and 60 Hz applications, the H uses higher efficiency and output to reduce the cost of electricity of this gas-fired power generation system.
Closed-Loop Steam Cooling Open loop air-cooled gas turbines have a significant temperature drop across the first stage nozzles, which reduces firing temperature. The closed-loop steam cooling system allows the turbine to fire at a higher temperature for increased performance, yet without increased combustion temperatures or their resulting increased emissions levels. It is this closed-loop steam cooling that enables the H System to achieve 60% fuel efficiency capability while maintaining adherence to the strictest low NOx standards and reducing CO2 emissions. Additionally, closed-loop cooling also minimizes
parasitic extraction of compressor discharge air, thereby allowing more air to flow to the head-end of the combustor for fuel premixing.

From Argentina to Singapore, world power producers require reliable power generation. The 9FA is the 50 Hz gas turbine choice for large combined cycle applications. Since the 9FA is an aerodynamic scale of the highly successful 7FA gas turbine, it too has experienced industryleading reliability. Key advantages of the 9FA gas turbine include its fuel-flexible combustion
system and higher output performance. The 9FA gas turbine is configured with the robust Dry Low NOx (DLN) 2.0+ combustor, which is ideally suited for the diverse fuels typical of the worldwide 50 Hz power generation market. The DLN 2.0+ combustor is the industry leader in pollution prevention for 50 Hz combined cycle applications with greater than 56% efficiency achieving less than 25 ppm NOx. The 9FA gas turbine is a building block that can be configured to meet site and power requirements. For re-powering applications, where space limitation is a key consideration, the 9FA gas turbine can be configured in a singleshaft combined cycle arrangement
PSP30027-06
For large combined cycle or cogeneration power plants where flexible operation and maximum performance is the prime consideration, the 9FA can be arranged in a multi-shaft configuration where one or two gas turbines are combined with a single steam turbine to produce power blocks of 390 or 780 MW.
