Conversion of Low-Thrust Airplane Gas-Turbine Engines to Power Generators

摘要

The local market demand for generators of electric power and heat of output between 7 kW and 2.5 MW is analyzed. State programs relating to the large-scale use of such generators in industry and utility companies are reviewed. Data for generator imports to Russia between 2014 and 2017 suggest that this demand will outstrip supply in the near future. It is expedient to convert low-thrust airplane gas-turbine engines to power generators.
