The General Electric LM2500 GTE is a marine propulsion engine capable of producing?
26,250 brake horsepower (BHP)
LM2500 GTE is a split shaft engine…
Gas Generator (GG) and the Power Turbine (PT)
(1) The Gas Generator produces a stream of rapidly expanding hot gases that drive the HP turbine and Power Turbine. The HP turbine drives the compressor and accessories.
(2) The Power Turbine drives the reduction Gear via HSFCS and output shaft.
(3) The Gas Generator and the Power Turbine are aerodynamically (vice mechanically) coupled. As the GG speed is changed, Pt speed proportionally changes.
Bleed Air is extracted from four different stages of the Compressor: 8th
(1) 8th stage: Used for pressurization and cooling of the four bearing sumps.
Bleed Air is extracted from four different stages of the Compressor: 9th
(2) 9th stage: Used to pressurize and cool the PT balance piston in the TRF, cool the turbine midframe strut, and LP turbine rotor.
(a) The balance piston reduces the axial load applied to NR 7B bearing by applying air pressure to the face of the rotor shaft in the direction opposite the thrust.
Bleed Air is extracted from four different stages of the Compressor: 13th
(3) 13th stage: Used to cool the 2nd stage HP turbine nozzles.
Bleed Air is extracted from four different stages of the Compressor: 16th
(4) 16th stage: Commonly called Customer Bleed Air, 16th Stage Bleed Air is used for cooling the Combustor Lining and centering the flame with in the Combustion Chamber.
(a) A portion of the 16th stage air may be extracted for use in the ship’s Bleed Air System (BAS).
(b) A remotely operated valve, the 16th stage bleed air valve, controls the use of Customer Bleed Air. When the valve is opened, air that would have normally gone on to the combustor section leaves the engine. This reduces the amount of cooling air inside the engine.
LM2500 INTAKE SYSTEM
The Intake System provides airflow to the LM2500 with minimum pressure drop, flow distortion, or saltwater ingestion.
LM2500 INTAKE SYSTEM: Air Module
Intake air enters the main duct through louvers and into moisture separators.
The moisture separators consist of filter-agglomerators, vane boxes, blow in panels, and an installed filter water wash system.
After leaving the Moisture Separators, air then flows down the Intake Duct, passing through Silencers, which smooth the airflow to reduce hull-radiated noise. Air then passes through a flexible boot into the Inlet Plenum.
LUBE OIL STORAGE AND CONDITIONING ASSEMBLY (LOSCA)
The LOSCA filters, cools, de-aerates, and stores the LM2500 synthetic lube oil (MIL-23699) for the GTM.
The LOSCA consists of:
(1) A 40-gallon storage tank containing 23699-lube oil.
(2) Heat is removed from the returning lube oil by a Shell and Tube type heat exchanger, which uses 2190-TEP from Main Lube Oil System as a cooling medium.
(3) A Scavenge Check Valve, located between the filter and the lube oil cooler. The check valve prevents back-flow of lube oil into the Gas Turbine gearbox and sumps when the engine is secured.
(4) A Duplex Scavenge Filter Element, located on the storage tank, removes particulates from the lube oil returning to the LOSCA. The Scavenge Filter must be manually shifted once the filter element becomes clogged.
(5) A Duplex Supply Filter Element, located inside the Gas Turbine Module, it filters the lube oil supplied to the engine from the LOSCA. The Duplex Supply Filter Element is also shifted manually.
