fuel cells substantial technical barriers are still to be overcome centred mainly on reducing the costs of the components, not to mention actual production costs. Both technologies offer substantial benefits to the LP Gas industry as they move from the laboratory to demonstration to commercialisation. WLPGA will keep you advised on their progress through periodic reports posted to our website www.worldlpgas.com II. What is a Microturbine? Microturbines are essentially small jet engines that produce electrical power and heat. They can be designed to be more efficient and less polluting than reciprocating engines (diesel, natural gas, LP Gas, or gasoline piston-driven engines). The term “microturbine” is typically applied to turbines rated at 0.2 mW (megawatts) or less, but may be used for units as large as 2 mW. Microturbines that are now sold or that are in advanced prototype stage of development range in size from 30 kW (kilowatts) to 500 kW. Most microturbine manufacturers make or plan to make units that are rated at or below 200 kW. Microturbine technology has emerged from four different technologies: small gas turbines, auxiliary power units, automotive development gas turbines, and turbochargers. Microturbines typically include several subsystems: compressor, combustor, turbine, alternator, recuperator and generator. To illustrate one microturbine design approach, and how it operates, below is shown an overall system diagram for the Capstone microturbine as well as a Capstone turbine cutout diagram.
