 Technical innovation as the basis of power and
efficiency increase

Evolutionary 3D blading Advanced Can Annular

combustion system
4 stages of fast acting variable-
pitch guide vanes (VGV) allowing
for improved part load efficiency
and high load transients > 60% combined
cycle efficiency

Proven rotor design

(Hirth serration, 3D Four stage turbine with
central tie rod, internal advanced materials and
cooling air passages) thermal barrier coating
for world class fast
(cold) start and hot High cycling capability due
restart capability to fully internally air cooled
turbine section

Transient protection of clearances

HCO for reduced for reduced degradation with
clearance losses hydraulic clearance optimization Performance features
(HCO) active clearance control Flexibility features

Designed for >60% efficiency in combined cycle

and best in class operational flexibility

 SGT-8000H
Service-Friendly Design

Easy-to-service design features

 Defined combustor handling tool
envelope (blue frame)
 Utilize engine symmetry to
optimize maintenance tasks
 Provides multi-task environment
 Does not require cover lift for
Combustion Inspection
 Access under engine for
tooling installation
 One toolkit for burner and
transition assembly

 Simple and efficient service concept
with three types of inspections

Hot Gas Path Inspection

Combustor Inspection
(Rotor in Place)

Major Inspection
(Rotor in Place)

 SGT-8000H Core Engine
Designed for easy and fast maintenance

All rotating blades including compressor are replaceable

without a rotor lift.

Row 1 Turbine Blades/Vanes/Ring Segments & Row 4

Blades can be replaced with or without cover lift.

Roll out/in capability of the turbine vane carrier enables

exchange of stationary turbine hardware without rotor lift.

Roll out/in capability also allows for optional assembled

spare vane carrier exchange concept which further reduces
outage durations.

Rotor Inspection - -

* Estimated outage durations for turnkey inspections depending on several conditions (labor, site, etc.)
* Shift model: 6 days per week / 2 shifts per day / 10 hours per shift
* It’s working days only, counted form turning gear off to turning gear on

 SGT- 8000H
Service-Friendly Combustor Maintenance Concept

Benefits TLC 44 / TLC45 Single Shaft Configuration

 No external crane or other support devices required
 Easy access for Field Service personnel
 Better protection of combustor components against
handling issues
 Pre-assembled burner system for fast installation
 Optimized outage durations due to simultaneous
work flow & packaging

Berlin Factory Test Installation and Container Concept

Similar baskets and similar assembly procedure for transition Combustor components pre-assembled prior to delivery to site!

 Burner and Transition Handling Tool Test

Purpose: Tool 50Hz 60Hz

 Dismantling and assembly of transitions
and burners w/o TLC45 10 d 9d

 Dealing with indoor environment w/ TLC45 8d 7d

 Designed for use of Mobile platform and
support cranes → 20% reduction in Outage duration

Tool Test 10 / 2013 in Berlin, Germany

 SGT- 8000H Plant Platform Concept

3D Plant Design Model Power Plant Concepts with integrated Service Requirements
1. All power plant components included in the design model
2. Simulation of service activities
3. Optimization of overall power plant concept

Page 13 May 2015 Jens Klingemann

 SGT- 8000H Serviceability
3D model supports service requirements

Based on the 3D model the best service concept will be developed and customized, e.g.
1. Rotor Inspection can be conducted on site
2. Upending fixture foundation installed during plant construction
3. Lower cost and higher availability as repair possible without factory visit

Destacking Service Option: upending fixture foundation installed during plant construction.
