🏭GE Verifies Benefits of New Lightweight LM2500 Marine Gas Turbine Enclosure

General Electric’s marine solutions business has completed a weight and noise attenuation testing between a carbon fiber-based gas turbine enclosure and steel module.

GE said Monday test results showed that the lightweight composite-based module for the LM2500 marine gas turbine reduced noise by 60 percent and weight by approximately 2,500 kilograms compared with the steel enclosure.
