The General Electric LM2500 is an industrial and marine gas turbine produced by GE Aviation. The LM2500 is a derivative of the General Electric CF6 aircraft engine. As of 2004, the U.S. Navy and at least 29 other navies had used a total of more than one thousand LM2500/LM2500+ gas turbines to power warships . [ 1 ]

The LM2500* family of aeroderivative gas turbines, including the LM2500XPRESS*, boasts over 120 million operating hours, several times the operating experience of its competitors combined, and unsurpassed flexibility and reliability—helping to develop a better energy future.

The LM2500 sets the standard for marine gas turbines, with 50+ years of proven reliability and innovation. It is ideal for marine propulsion in a variety of configurations from mechanical and electric drive systems to hybrid (combined) systems.

LM2500 Marine Gas Turbine. The GE LM2500 is the world’s most popular aeroderivative marine gas turbine, backed by GE’s commitment to unmatched, reliable propulsion power. As with all GE marine gas turbines, the LM2500 is supported by ten global depot/service locations. GE offers the LM2500 with extensive auxiliary component options and

This paper presents an overall description of GE’s latest LM2500 series aeroderivative gas turbine, with rated ISO shaft power output of 34.3 megawatts and 41.3% efficiency. It presents the value added to customers based on demonstrated high reliability and availability of the LM2500/+ gas turbine heritage.

The LM2500+G4 gas turbine provides 47,370-shp, and is the most powerful and efficient member of the LM2500 family. It is ideal for frigates and other military ships. It is also available as a generator set

With more than 2,500 units sold and more than 97 million operating hours, GE’s LM2500 is the top-selling gas turbine globally. The LM2500 works well for CHP applications between 20 and 40 MW and its greater than 85 percent efficiency helps reduce operating costs, plant emissions, and reliance on the local grid.

Unlike the LM6000™ model, the LM2500™ features a single-rotor gas generator, which can be aerodynamically coupled to a power turbine. It comprises a 16-stage compressor, an annular combustor, a two-stage high-pressure turbine, and in some cases a …

The GE LM2500 is an aeroderivative gas turbine that surpassed 75 million combined operating hours in 2015, making it one of the most successful industrial and marine turbines ever produced. GE Aviation designed the LM2500 based on CF6-6 and TF-39 aircraft engine technology.

The LM2500 series, developed by GE Aerospace, comprises aeroderivative gas turbines renowned for their versatility and efficiency. Derived from GE’s CF6 aircraft engine, these turbines are widely utilized across marine, industrial, and power generation sectors.
