Advanced Aero Stage 3 Bucket and Stage 3 Nozzle

GE has redesigned the stage 3 bucket and stage 3 nozzle for 6B, 7B-7EA, and 9B-E gas turbine class to increase its efficiency and to improve output (up to +1*) and heat rate (up to -1%*). With the implemented design improvements, GE offers a bucket and nozzle combination that provides significant benefit to your gas turbine.

The Advanced Aero bucket and nozzle can be installed separately, or combined for even greater benefits. Together, the redesigned bucket and nozzle provide improved axial flow, which reduces exhaust turbulence. This reduction can reduce maintenance on exhaust diffuser turning vanes.
