Book Design and Development of a Porous Injector for Gaseous Fuels Injection in Gas Turbine Combustor

Download or read book Design and Development of a Porous Injector for Gaseous Fuels Injection in Gas Turbine Combustor written by Non Meeboon and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novel porous injector is designed for injection of gaseous fuel in land based gas turbine combustors. The injector is tested at atmospheric conditions at Combustion Research Laboratory, University of Cincinnati. In the present study, seven injector configurations are tested for mixing quality, LBO limits and emissions. For mixing studies, the CO2 technique is adopted to evaluate the fuel-air mixing under atmospheric conditions of the porous injector. The experiments are carried out at 4% pressure drop condition across the injector. The CO2 concentrations are converted to fuel mass fractions for the comparison. A comparison between the top/bottom injections, center/no center injection and 7/30 micron porous tubes show that these configurations do not impact the fuel-air mixing distribution. PIV measurements are carried out in non-reacting as well reacting conditions. Velocity profiles are obtained at a 1%-4% pressure drop condition. The experiments are carried out with and without combustor. A weak outer recirculation zone is observed downstream of the injector in the combustor. The velocity profiles are same at the exit plane of the injector with and without combustor. The velocity decreases gradually along the combustor. The ignition and lean blow out limit are observed to increase as the pressure drop increases. The flame liftoff distance is found to increase as the pressure drop increases. The NO, CO, and O2 emissions are evaluated at the downstream of the porous injector at 6" from the entrance of the combustor. The results show that the NOx emissions are ~ 7 ppm @ 15% O2.

Book DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION OF AN ULTRA LOW NOx COMBUSTOR FOR GAS TURBINES

Download or read book DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION OF AN ULTRA LOW NOx COMBUSTOR FOR GAS TURBINES written by NEIL K. MCDOUGALD. and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alzeta Corporation has developed surface-stabilized fuel injectors for use with lean premixed combustors which provide extended turndown and ultra-low NOX emission performance. These injectors use a patented technique to form interacting radiant and blue-flame zones immediately above a selectively-perforated porous metal surface. This allows stable operation at low reaction temperatures. This technology is being commercialized under the product name nanoSTAR. Initial tests demonstrated low NOX emissions but, were limited by flashback failure of the injectors. The weld seams required to form cylindrical injectors from flat sheet material were identified as the cause of the failures. The approach for this project was to first develop new fabrication methods to produce injectors without weld seams, verify similar emissions performance to the original flat sheet material and then develop products for microturbines and small gas turbines along parallel development paths. A 37 month project was completed to develop and test a surface stabilized combustion system for gas turbine applications. New fabrication techniques developed removed a technological barrier to the success of the product by elimination of conductive weld seams from the injector surface. The injectors demonstrated ultra low emissions in rig tests conducted under gas turbine operating conditions. The ability for injectors to share a common combustion chamber allowing for deployment in annular combustion liner was also demonstrated. Some further development is required to resolve integration issues related to specific engine constraints, but the nanoSTAR technology has clearly demonstrated its low emissions potential. The overall project conclusions can be summarized: (1) A wet-laid casting method successfully eliminated weld seams from the injector surface without degrading performance. (2) Gas turbine cycle analysis identified several injector designs and control schemes to start and load engines using nanoSTAR technology. A mechanically simple single zone injector can be used in Solar Turbine's Taurus 60 engine. (3) Rig testing of single monolithic injectors demonstrated sub 3 ppmv NOX and sub 10 ppmv CO and UHC emissions (all corrected to 15% O2) at Taurus 60 full-load pressure and combustion air inlet temperature. (4) Testing of two nanoSTAR injectors in Solar Turbine's sector rig demonstrated the ability for injectors to survive when fired in close proximity at Taurus 60 full load pressure and combustion air inlet temperature. (5) Sector rig tests demonstrated emissions performance and range of operability consistent with single injector rig tests. Alzeta has committed to the commercialization of nanoSTAR injectors and has sufficient production capability to conclude development and meet initial demand.

Book Advances in Internal Combustion Engines and Fuel Technologies

Download or read book Advances in Internal Combustion Engines and Fuel Technologies written by Hoon Kiat Ng and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the important need for more efficient and environmentally sound combustion technologies that utilise renewable fuels to be continuously developed and adopted. The central theme here is two-fold: internal combustion engines and fuel solutions for combustion systems. Internal combustion engines remain as the main propulsion system used for ground transportation, and the number of successful developments achieved in recent years is as varied as the new design concepts introduced. It is therefore timely that key advances in engine technologies are organised appropriately so that the fundamental processes, applications, insights and identification of future development can be consolidated. In the future and across the developed and emerging markets of the world, the range of fuels used will significantly increase as biofuels, new fossil fuel feedstock and processing methods, as well as variations in fuel standards continue to influence all combustion technologies used now and in coming streams. This presents a challenge requiring better understanding of how the fuel mix influences the combustion processes in various systems. The book allows extremes of the theme to be covered in a simple yet progressive way.
