In 1997,five Japanese gas turbine makers (KHI, IHI, Daihatsu Diesel, Niigata Engineering and Yanmar Diesel) jointly established a research group to conduct R&D on a low NOx high efficiency next-generation marine gas turbine, the Super Marine Gas Turbine (SMGT). The goal of this project is to develop a marine gas turbine with high thermal efficiency (38-40%) and low NOx emissions of less than 1g/kWh. By 2002,a prototype 2500kW SMGT will be finished for the test-run, as researching the gas turbine components to overcome various technical issues. This paper presents the target specifications and the content of the research and development plan.
