An Exonetik turbine as a power source for all applications between 100kW and 4MW.
Even though state-of-the-art commercial turbines in the sub-megawatt range are more reliable, require less maintenance than diesel engines, they are currently limited to an efficiency of 38%, which is far below the 45% efficiency mark that is achieved by Diesel engines. The only path to achieving efficiencies higher than Diesel engines is to increase the turbine inlet temperature, which is limited by the metallic turbine, and replace it with ceramics. Exonetik Turbo’s innovative architecture allows the ceramics to be used in compression, making them resistant to foreign object damage and attain high temperatures, resulting in potentially 50% thermal efficiency and 5kW/kg power-density.
