Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using large numbers of orifices in the head of the combustor to generate independent shear layers in a co-operative array, the so-called pepperpot concept was evolved to secure efficient combustion in a weak primary zone. Specific targets were high efficiency and very low smoke at both low and high power levels when burning either kerosine or diesel fuels. Performance tests of a pepperpot demonstrator combustor at representative conditions of idle, intermediate and high power using both fuels are described. An impressive combustion performance has been realised over the whole power range, together with excellent exit traverse quality and tolerance to fuel type. (Author).

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been said and written about the abilities of modern instrumentation to help solve problems of combustion in engines. In the main, however, the design and fabr ication of combustion chambers continues to be based on extrapolation of exper ience gained from use and rig tests, with little input from advanced techniques such as those based on optical diagnotics. At the same time, it has become increasingly difficult to design better combustion chambers without knowledge of the relevant flow processes. Thus, the future must involve improved understanding which, in turn, will require detailed measurements of velocity, temperature and concentration. The need to narrow the gap between current industrial practice and the acquisition and implementation of improved techniques motivated the organization of the Advanced Study Institute upon which this volume is based. This Institute on Instrumentation for Combustion and Flow in Engines was arranged to display the needs of industry and the possibilities made available by modern instrumentation and, at the same time, to make clear the relative advantages of optical and probe techniques. Held at Vimeiro during the period from 13 to 26 September, 1987, the Institute was attended by 120 participants and 16 invited lecturers.
Download or read book Performance of a Turbojet Combustor Using Natural Gas Fuel Heated to 12000 F 922 K written by James S. Fear and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combustion efficiency was determined using natural gas fuel over a range of injection temperatures from ambient to 1200' F (922 K). The combustor was comprised of three U-gutter flameholders mounted downstream of a trumpet-shaped diffuser in a rectangulai housing. A simple film-cooled liner was used. Tests were conducted at ambient pressure over a range of fuel-air ratios and combustor reference velocities. Increases in efficiency of more than 40 percentage points were achieved at the higher fuel temperatures. The results are applicable to natural gas afterburner design and to the design of advanced low-pressure-loss primary combustors.

Book excerpt: Industrial Gas Turbines: Performance and Operability explains important aspects of gas turbine performance such as performance deterioration, service life and engine emissions. Traditionally, gas turbine performance has been taught from a design perspective with insufficient attention paid to the operational issues of a specific site. Operators are not always sufficiently familiar with engine performance issues to resolve operational problems and optimise performance.Industrial Gas Turbines: Performance and Operability discusses the key factors determining the performance of compressors, turbines, combustion and engine controls. An accompanying engine simulator CD illustrates gas turbine performance from the perspective of the operator, building on the concepts discussed in the text. The simulator is effectively a virtual engine and can be subjected to operating conditions that would be dangerous and damaging to an engine in real-life conditions. It also deals with issues of engine deterioration, emissions and turbine life. The combined use of text and simulators is designed to allow the reader to better understand and optimise gas turbine operation. - Discusses the key factors in determining the perfomance of compressors, turbines, combustion and engine controls - Explains important aspects of gas and turbine perfomance such as service life and engine emissions - Accompanied by CD illustrating gas turbine performance, building on the concepts discussed in the text
