New materials will increase efficiency and engine power
At the international maritime salon «Fleet-2024» The UEC (United Engine Corporation) team, part of Rostec, showed a mock-up of the M70FRU power plant. Such engines are used on modern ships as diesel-gas turbine units. The press service of the state corporation spoke about this.
The development can be used as part of import substitution on modern ships. In the near future, new corrosion-resistant heat-resistant alloys created by UEC will be used for the construction of these power plants. They are used for working and nozzle blades of turbines operating under difficult conditions, including thermal effects and a complex of mechanical loads.
Rostec emphasized:
New materials will increase the efficiency and power of a marine gas turbine engine. This will open the way to the creation of advanced marine propulsion systems of a new level.
