• Power Generation – CHP (Combined Heat and Power)

for Decentralized Generation market

• Aerospace – UAVs

• Turbo-Pumps/compressors for various applications

The Rational

Addition of Commercial Turbo-Charger to the basic

TG-40 engine quadruples the output and reduces

the installed cost by ~ 65-70%

(from 1700 $/kW to 500-550 $/KW)

Thus – the enhanced TG-200 is a potential

competitor to IC (internal combustion) piston

engines in the “Decentralized Generation” market,

and other markets / Applications

Piston Engines Turbocharging

Turbocharger cycle:

- Serves mainly to boost air inlet pressure and mass flow;

- an intercooler is optionally placed between the compressor and engine inlet.

Automotive modern turbochargers attain high

components efficiencies and use ball bearing

technology lubricated by main engine oil system

“Turbo-Charging” Gas Turbines

A. None/Intercooled - recuperated Cycle

2 or 3 shaft gas turbine cycles - mainly used

for aircraft engines.

An integral concentric design is required due

to size weight/limits.

Not applicable to microturbines due to small

shaft size.

R-Jet Engineering

B. Recuperated / Intercooled Cycles

Requires an “open“ architecture in which the

combustor and recuperator are accessible to minimize pressure losses.

Therefore-not used in aircraft engines but in large commercial gas turbines pre-designed for such architecture.

TG-200 kW Technical Concept

The TG-200 is a turbocharged version of the single shaft TG-40.

It Includes the following –

1. The basic TG-40 intercooled and recuperated turbo-shaft driving a 200kW alternator.

2. Turbocharger driving a booster compressing air into the TG-40 original compressor inlet through a inter cooler.

3. 200kW power converting unit.—alternatively a speed reducer to 1500 rpm and a conventional generator.

The design point performance is:

Thermal power - 225kW

Thermal efficiency - 36%

R-Jet Engineering

Summary

• Turbo-charging a commercial micro gas turbine is

presented as a cost effective method to boost its

power 4-5 times while keeping a high thermal

efficiency.

• Using automotive turbochargers as add-on modules

simplifies the system design and reduces cost.

• Thus- a green competitive solution is available in

the 40-200kW power range.
