The 2-cup Fuel Nozzle is a precision-engineered component used in gas turbines, specifically in the oil and gas industry. Its primary function is to inject liquid fuel into the combustion chamber in a fine, atomized spray, allowing for optimal mixing with air and efficient ignition. This ensures stable combustion, better fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions—key performance factors in industrial turbine applications.

The “2-cup” design refers to the nozzle’s dual flow passages, which help balance fuel distribution across the combustion zone. This promotes more uniform flame stability and lowers the risk of hot spots that can cause thermal stress to the turbine hardware. The nozzle is typically used on “base” engines and is suited for continuous-duty operations.

The LM2500+G4 is an advanced variant of the LM2500+ aeroderivative gas turbine, designed to provide increased output and thermal efficiency through a set of targeted design upgrades. It retains the core architecture of the LM2500+ but introduces changes to the flow path that increase overall engine performance.

The primary difference between the LM2500+G4 and the LM2500+ is the increased flow capacity in the high-pressure (HP) compressor, HP turbine, and low-pressure turbine. These modifications raise the overall pressure ratio from 23.6 to 24.2, resulting in higher thermal efficiency and greater mass flow. The design changes are relatively limited, focusing mainly on minor geometry adjustments to blades and vanes to accommodate the increased flow.

In the high-pressure turbine, the G4 version includes improved blade cooling and upgraded materials. These changes enable the turbine to handle higher temperatures, contributing to both improved performance and component durability. To maintain proper rotor thrust balance with the updated flow path, the effective area of the compressor discharge pressure seal was also adjusted.

In terms of operational performance, the LM2500+G4 offers measurable improvements over the LM2500+ across a variety of ambient conditions. For example, it delivers approximately 11% more power in cold conditions and 12% more in hot conditions (running data to -50 deg F and start data to –40 deg F). In combined-cycle mode, the G4 variant is expected to provide a power increase of 8.5% and a heat rate improvement of 0.75% compared to the LM2500+.

The LM2500+G4 supports two power turbine configurations:

• A six-stage, low-speed power turbine, typically used for power generation applications with a nominal speed of 3600 rpm.
• A two-stage High-Speed Power Turbine (HSPT), used for mechanical drive applications, designed for a nominal speed of 6100 rpm, with an operating range from 3050 to 6400 rpm.

Both configurations support operation over a cubic load curve, which allows the turbine to match power output with varying mechanical loads — a feature especially useful in pipeline compression and similar variable-load industrial applications.
