It will utilize three different turbines. The high pressure (HP) turbine will be a steam-type turbine operating at 1000 F. The intermediate pressure (IP) turbine will be a modified GE J79 operating at ~1700 F (with a re-heater but without a compressor). The low pressure (LP) turbine will operate on steam produced in a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) using waste heat from the IP turbine.
