A Complete Guide to Gas Turbine Components and Their Functions

With more than 25 years of experience as a professional supplier of turbine components, OBT provides a complete industry range of all the main components of gas turbines, each designed to provide efficient and reliable turbine operation in both aviation, power and marine. These components are of high quality, as we are also specialists in high temperature alloys and precision production.

Turbine Blade

As a core part of the turbine, the blades of the turbine are developed by OBT to be efficient in turning energy. They are designed using high-performance alloys (including Inconel, Hastelloy, and titanium alloys), which withstand heat and high pressure, and which accumulate the energy of flowing hot gases to initiate turbine flow, a crucial step in producing power and mechanical energy.

Turbine Wheel

The turbine wheel made by OBT is a key structural component that will firmly fix turbine blades. It passes the rotating power produced by the blades to turbine shaft making the power transfer stable. Its strong design made of durable alloys, helps in not being fatigued and stressed when operated continually at high speed.

Guide Vanes

The guide vanes of OBT are important in airflow control. They control and guide the entry of hot gases into the turbine blades to optimise the direction and speed of airflow to maximise turbine efficiency. They are also designed precisely to stabilize the operating conditions of the turbines, limiting wear on downstream components.

Transition Duct

OBT's transition duct allows the transportation of high-temperature gases from the combustion system to the turbine section. The duct has heat-resistant properties to defend neighboring components from severe heat, while its streamlined design ensures minimal pressure loss, guaranteeing efficient gas supply to the turbine.

Combustion Chamber

OBT's combustion chamber is where the fuel is blended and combusted to generate high-pressure, high-temperature gases. Designed for total and secure combustion, it ensures stable flame stabilization and manages heat distribution, forming the basis for effective energy conversion in the turbine.

Segment

OBT segments are specialized elements that offer localized support and protection for major turbine components. They are easy to maintain, enabling targeted replacement when necessary, which limits downtime and lowers overall maintenance expenses while maintaining turbine integrity.

Casing

OBT's turbine casing is the external structural casing, covering the internal components to preserve system integrity. It supplies mechanical strength, provides correct sealing to avoid gas leakage, and protects internal components from environmental contaminants, enhancing long-term turbine reliability.

OBT's complete line of gas turbine parts, each design optimized for particular applications, operates in harmony to provide high-performance, long-lasting solutions for industrial turbine equipment. The emphasis on quality and precision in our manufacturing practices ensures these parts facilitate efficient, long-lasting turbine operation across a wide range of applications.
