Siemens Turbine SGT400

02/17/2012 2:38 AM

I have recently some research about Siemens turbine, specially SGT400 model.

this type of turbine can be used as a generator and also as a compressor. Both of them has a core "core engine "

http://www.energy.siemens.com/hq/en/power-generation/gas-turbines/sgt-400.htm

I need to know is it possible to use core engine which designed for generator in compressor mode practically. In fact, my question focused on this subject " is it risky? or what kind of problem may be happens if we use these core engine instead of each other, is it any difference in their designs and so on. "

I read all Siemens documents about SGT400. but i have no drawings and i m not expert in this filed :(

Its highly appreciated if you help me in this regards.

Hi alivip

you should contact Siemens and state all your requirements as well as your location and ambient conditions, they will probably be very helpful and happy to tell you what you can and can not do with these machines.

Do you already have a Siemens unit and want to convert it? if not, you should also talk to their competitors before deciding what to buy.

good luck
