This table is limited to turbines up to 30 MW, and does not include turbines with recuperators and steam injection. Performances are indicative and given for ISO conditions (atmospheric pressure of 760 mmHg, ambient temperature of 15°C and relative air humidity of 60%), the power being that delivered to the alternator terminals. The manufacturers listed are, to the best of our knowledge, those present on...
