Abstract
A modular gas turbine system is disclosed. The system includes a base plate and a gas turbine engine mounted on the base plate. The gas turbine engine has a rotation axis, a first air compressor section and a second air compressor section. A rotating load is mechanically coupled to the gas turbine engine and mounted on the base plate. A supporting frame extends above the base plate and supports a plurality of secondary coolers, which are fluid exchange relationship with an intercooler of the gas turbine engine.

A modular gas turbine system, comprising:
- a base plate;
- mounted on the base plate, a gas turbine engine having a rotation axis, a first air compressor section and a second air compressor section;
- at least one rotating load, mechanically coupled to the gas turbine engine and mounted on the base plate;
- a supporting frame extending above the base plate;
- an air intercooler, fluidly coupled to the first air compressor section and second air compressor section;
- the air intercooler configured and arranged for cooling partly compressed air from the first air compressor section in heat exchange relationship with a heat removal fluid;
- wherein a plurality of secondary coolers are arranged on the supporting frame at a height above the base plate, preferably on the supporting frame at a level above at least one of the gas turbine engine and the load, and are in fluid exchange relationship with the intercooler, the heat removal fluid being in heat exchange relationship with a cooling medium in the secondary coolers.
