In This Process, a gas turbine is used as utility to produce electricity and supply

power to for generator. For the utility and sizing we leave it to the vendor. The
methane gas is leaving the combustion with 1039,5 kg/day.
For gas turbine specification, methane data must be completed.
Specification of methane gas

Based on international design standard, the turbin with output power 210 MW,
can be operated with speeds 3000-7000 rpm. Based on rateau turbine, can be known
the enthalphy change per stage is 125 kJ/kg. So the number of stage which needed
for this turbine is

So the turbin use 4 stages.

Politropic cycle efficiencies

But according to Combined Cycle Power Generation ((William B. Retallick,
Consultant, January 2001)), effisiciency of turbin can assumed about 90%.

From the equation of Rateau turbin, we can calculate diameter of blade.
