Vanadium inhibitors are used in gas turbines to prevent the formation of vanadium oxides which can lead to high temperature corrosion of turbine components. By using a vanadium inhibitor, the risk of hot corrosion is minimized, improving the overall performance and longevity of the gas turbine.

Do you use HHV or LHV for gas turbine efficiency calculation?

Gas turbine manufacturers generally state the efficiency of their turbines using LHV. However, natural gas in the U.S. is bought and sold on an HHV basis, so be careful that you don't mix units. Otherwise, you will buy a gas turbine that is too small for your anticipated needs.
