Gas Turbine Exhausts: Absorption of Sub-Second Shock Waves
In modern combined cycle power plants (CCPP), gas turbines cycle on and off at incredible speeds to meet peak load demands. This situation, within seconds, from ambient temperature to degrees Celsius, and even Thermal Shocks reaching beyond 1000°C leads to. Traditional fabrics turn to ash under this shock; steel, on the other hand, buckles.
To prevent this stainless steel meshes and Inconel wires woven with, featuring a specialized layer anatomy clad with silica and glass fiber cushions.

Custom Manufacturing and On-Site Application Technology
Due to space constraints in turbine exhausts, fabric expansion joint installation processes are typically performed on scaffolding. Thanks to the portable joining techniques we provide at the customer site, maintenance times are reduced by half. This is the technology that can withstand sub-second shocks for years.
