A gas turbine, gas turbine engine, or also known by its old name internal combustion turbine, is a type of continuous flow internal combustion engine. GE H series power generation gas turbine: in combined cycle configuration, its highest thermodynamic efficiency is 62.22%
The COMBUSTOR is what actually burns the fuel and produces high-pressure gas. The mixture is burned at temperatures of more than 2,000 °F to expand within the turbine sectionat high velocity. The TURBINE extracts the energy from the gas in the combustor. This is done with an array of stationary and rotating airfoil blades.
