2. 1. Impacts of alternative combustion diluents and hydrogen addition on a swirl-stabilized flame related to gas turbine application

   Author : Mao Li; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : lean premixed combustion; Swirl-stabilized flame; Gas turbine combustion; Flame dilution; H2 addition; Lean blowout; CO emission; PVC; CH chemiluminescence; Inverse Abel transform; PIV; POD;

   Abstract : The global energy tendency leads to increasing attention on clean combustion technologies in order to eliminate adverse impacts on the environment. The utilization of oxyfuel combustion (CO2 acts as the only combustion dilution), flame diluents, and hydrogen fuel in gas turbine combustion provides a promising solution to reduce combustion pollutant emissions.

4. 2. Investigation of a prototype industrial gas turbine combustor using alternative gaseous fuels

   Author : Ivan Sigfrid; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Combustion; Gas Turbine; Laminar flame speed; Stretch; Lean blowout; Emissions;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the effect of alternative gaseous fuels, with high hydrogen content and lower calorific value, on gas turbine combustion was investigated experimentally. The aim of the investigation was to find operational limitations for an experimental burner and to supply data for validation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). READ MORE

5. 3. Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Flames Stabilized by Swirl Flow and Bluff-body:Flame Structures and Flame Instabilities

   Author : Yiheng Tong; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Flame structures; Flame instabilities; Blowout limits; Flashback; Swirl Flow; Bluff-body; Chemiluminescence; PIV;

   Abstract : Combustion and its control are essential to our existence on this planet since we knew it. Nowadays, the largest share of the world’s electricity and most of our transportation systems are powered by combustion. In addition, industrial processes also rely heavily upon combustion.

6. 4. Operational stability of lean premixed combustion in gas turbines : an experimental study on gaseous alternative fuels

   Author : Parisa Sayad; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : Premixed Combustion; Syngas; Swirl Stabilized; Chemical Kinetics; Flashback; Lean Blowout; Autoignition; OH*-chemiluminescence;

   Abstract : World electricity consumption is drastically increasing. One of the most common ways of producing electricity is to use the chemical energy of fossil fuels. This can be done in thermal power plants in which the chemical energy of fossil fuels such as natural gas is converted to mechanical energy and finally to electricity. READ MORE

7. 5. Combustion Characteristics of a Swirl Dry Low Emission Burner Concept for Gas Turbine Application : Experiments and Simulations

   Author : Atanu Kundu; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gas Trubine Combustion; Partially Premixed flame; Flame stabilization; Swirl Flow; Emission; Experiments; Combustor; CFD; PLIF; PIV; Chemiluminescence;

   Abstract : In the current global energy scenario, gas turbine can provide delicate balance between the booming worlds energy requirement and a pollutant free sustainable society. Cleaner combustion of fuel (particular natural gas), efficient, reliable, low maintenance and cost effective operation of gas turbine attracted scientific community to push the limit further (high efficiency and zero emission gas turbine).
