what is the abrivation of GE- 9FA and 9E gas turbines..

Answer / mob

Gas turbines of GE make are denoted by Frame i.e. Frame -
V, Frame - VI, Frame - IX etc.

Frame - 9E gas turbine means serial no. 9001 , 9171 E etc

For 9171 E - 9 means the frame number, 17 means 170000 HP,
1 means single shaft and E is the latest modification

9FA is a high end frame 9 machine i.e. has higher rating
than 9E

what is the abrivation of GE- 9FA and 9E gas turbines..

Answer / naga

GE gas turbines were basically divided into 2 different
classes.
1. E - class Ex: 6B, 9E
2. F - class Ex: 6FA, 7FA, 7FB, 9FA, 9FB,9FA+e

F class machines are newer machines and has higher power
generation capacity.

9FA means : "9" indicates Frame size and "F" indicates F -
class machine. FA and FB are two categories of F - class
machines.

9E means : "9" indicates Frame size and "E" indicates E -
class machine.

9FA+e means : "9" indicates Frame size, "F" indicates F -
class machine and "+e" indicates extended version of 9FA.

For ex: 9FA+e 'inspection interval' is more compared to 9FA.

what is the abrivation of GE- 9FA and 9E gas turbines..

Answer / bhola shanker

9E turbines have cranking motor,  no lift oil for turbine bearings,  having additional bearing near the marriage coupling I.e.,in between compressor sand turbine, because of lower capacity the generator is air cooled, 
Whereas 9FA turbine have LCI for cranking, have lift oil for turbine bearings, unlike 9E is having only bearing only at the extreme end of the compressor and turbine and generator is hydrogen cooled.

Answer / santosh dhange

9FA is higher version then 9 E
GE frame 9E means - 9 is the Frame size. E -Class or version.
GE frame 9FA - 9 means frame size, F - means Class, A- means annular Combustion type.
