Talk:General Electric LM2500

TM2500

Is it worth mentioning that the LM2500 is also packaged as a mobile power plant marketed as the TM2500? I found some news coverage of its use in Chicago in 2000, as well as in Fourchon, LA after Katrina. Full disclosure: I worked on the second (or third, depending on how you count) generation of that product line. --W0lfie 23:51, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fuel?

What fuel does it burn? JP4? Bunker C? DaveCrane (talk) 00:53, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Me too! What it uses for fuel should be in the introduction. Pb8bije6a7b6a3w (talk) 15:14, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There is no simple answer for that question. An LM2500 on an airplane might use some kind of jet fuel, but one installed on US Navy ship might use F-76 spec diesel.[1] Both could probably use a wide variety of fuels similar to diesel in an emergency, with modifications, or whatever a customer specifies. --Dual Freq (talk) 18:30, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

GE says "distillate or natural gas, diesel, propane, naphtha, coke oven gas, and more." A gas turbine will burn almost any fluid. I don't think there is any point trying to list all the possible fuels. Kendall-K1 (talk) 19:05, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't a simple answer be that the turbine is capable of using a variety of fuels? As someone that only has the barest of understandings of turbine engines, a small section of text indicating the variety of applications and subsequent fuel needs would be highly illuminating SmolderingMachine (talk) 16:01, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
