A system includes a modular exhaust collector configured to be arranged in a first orientation or a second orientation. The modular exhaust collector is configured to receive an exhaust flow along an inlet axis, to direct the exhaust flow along a first direction through an outlet when in the first orientation, and to direct the exhaust flow along a second direction through the outlet when in the second orientation. The modular exhaust collector includes an exhaust passage to receive the exhaust flow, a plurality of compressor discharge (CD) ports, a plurality of flow ports, a bottom face opposite the outlet with a first drain, and a first side wall with a second drain between the bottom face and the outlet. Each CD port is disposed a first radial distance from the inlet axis, and each flow port is disposed a second radial distance from the inlet axis.

Turbine exhaust collector

A system includes an exhaust collector tunnel () configured to mount inside an exhaust collector () of a gas turbine (). The exhaust collector tunnel () has a tunnel wall () configured to extend around a turbine shaft () of the gas turbine (). The tunnel wall () has a variable diameter () along at least a portion of a length of the exhaust collector tunnel ().

This application provides elastomeric shock absorbers for turbine transportation. Example engine mounts may include a first plate, a second plate, and an elastomeric bearing positioned between the first plate and the second plate. The engine mount may be configured to absorb or dampen vibration along an X-axis, a Y-axis, and a Z-axis of a turbine during transportation.
