Heavy-duty industrial and aero-derivative gas turbines each have different maintenance, availability, auxiliary equipment and power generation options and requirements. Matching the turbine to the specific application ensures optimum performance and minimizes operating costs over the equipment life. The paper first explains the difference between heavy duty and aero-derivative engines, then discusses installation cost, criticality and stand-bys, operating factors, operating costs, performance degradation, reliability and availability, and transient load response.
