Model LM6000 - Sprint Aeroderivative Gas Turbines
From Gas Turbines - Aeroderivative
Unlike most gas turbines, the LM6000 is primarily controlled by the compressor discharge temperature in lieu of the turbine inlet temperature. Some of the compressor discharge air is then used to cool high-pressure turbine components. Sprint — which stands for 'Spray Inter-cooled Turbine' — reduces compressor discharge temperature, thereby allowing advancement of the throttle to significantly enhance power and improve thermal efficiency.

Design
Design
The LM6000 Sprint system is composed of atomized water injection at both low-pressure compressor (LPC) and high-pressure compressor (HPC) inlet plenums. This is accomplished by using a high-pressure compressor, eighth-stage bleed air to feed two air manifolds, water-injection manifolds and sets of spray nozzles, where the water droplets are sufficiently atomized before injection at both LPC and HPC inlet plenums.
