Book Design and Implementation of a Novel  Fuel flexible  Laboratory scale  Premixed Combustor

Download or read book Design and Implementation of a Novel Fuel flexible Laboratory scale Premixed Combustor written by Benoit Fond and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Recent developments in the production of fuels from alternative sources such as biomass raise a global interest in burning these highly variable fuels in gas turbine combustors. However, current low emission burner technologies and combustor stability are very sensitive to fuel composition. The current study aims at designing a fuel flexible combustion system which can be used for kinetic investigations, as well as a future candidate for low purity fuels combustion. A novel premixed burner design has been created based on a concept of a forced recirculation by jet impingement and a strong stirring. A numerical investigation of the combustion performance has been performed on a fully detailed model to define an operative range of interest. The entire system has been designed to provide this range of operation based on detailed heat transfer cooling and gas dynamics injector models. Optical and physical diagnostics capabilities have been implemented in order to provide insight into the reactor chemistry. This will allow the characterization of the combustor performance and kinetic investigation of alternative fuel combustion on the one hand, and of the kinetic effects of CO2and H2O in flameless combustion on the other hand.

Book Fuel Flexible Clean Combustion of Liquid Fuels by a Novel Twin Fluid Atomization

Download or read book Fuel Flexible Clean Combustion of Liquid Fuels by a Novel Twin Fluid Atomization written by Yonas Goitom Niguse and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on alternative fuel combustion systems is important to address global energy and environmental concerns. Renewable fuels, such as biofuels have attracted significant attention as potential sources to achieve energy security and to tackle environmental issues. However, these alternatives haven't yet been fully utilized because much of the existing combustion systems are set up for traditional fossil-fuels. This study focuses on fuel-flexible combustion of diesel, vegetable oil (VO) and glycerol fuels by a novel technique of twin-fluid atomization known as Flow Blurring (FB) atomization, at different operating pressures. The first part of this study discusses scalability considerations of FB atomization, with an objective to develop a scaled-up fuel-flexible combustor. Several scaling parameters that affect the processes of atomization, fuel-air mixing, and combustion are analyzed to select scaling criteria for all components of the combustor. A scaled-up 60-kWth capacity combustor is developed and experimentally investigated using diesel and VO fuels. Results show that the scaled-up system's performance is comparable to the small scale system in terms of flame appearance, emission levels, and static flame stability. Next, the scaled-up system's combustion performance with glycerol fuel is investigated in laboratory and at industrial test site. Glycerol is extremely difficult to atomize because of its high viscosity. The lab combustor was able to burn glycerol cleanly, with low CO and NOx emissions. At industrial test site, combustion experiments with 40% methane and 60% glycerol resulted in stable flame. Next, effect of operating pressure on flame characteristics and injector pressure drop is experimentally investigated with diesel, at pressures ranging from 101.3 kPa to 450 kPa. Normalized pressure drop across the injector increased with increase in atomizing air flow rate and decreased with increase in pressure. An increase in chamber pressure resulted in increase in CO levels and decrease in NOx emissions. Increase in pressure also produced less lifted flames with increased yellow zones. Finally, combustion performance of VO is investigated at elevated pressures. Compared to diesel, VO produced larger flames exhibiting more distributed combustion and lower NOx emissions. At high pressures diesel flames contained significantly higher portions of yellow or sooty regions compared to VO.
