摘要:
A combustion dynamics control system for an aviation based or land based gas turbine engine employs an acoustic driver that is configured to drive pressure perturbations across a premixed fuel injection orifice to substantially zero in response to a control signal such that fuel flow perturbations across the fuel injection orifice are substantially zero.

A turbomachine includes a combustion chamber, and at least one pre-mixer mounted to the combustion chamber. The at least one pre-mixer includes a main body having a first end portion that extends to a second end portion. The first end portion is configured to receive an amount of fuel and an amount of air and the second end portion defines an exit plane from which a fuel-air mixture discharges into the combustion chamber. The turbomachine also includes a combustion dynamics reduction system operatively coupled to the at least one pre-mixer. The combustion dynamics reduction system includes at least one of a boundary layer perturbation mechanism and an acoustic wave introduction system which disrupt a flow pattern of the fuel-air mixture within the at least one pre-mixer.
摘要:
A method for monitoring and controlling a gas turbine, comprises predicting frequencies of combustion dynamics in a combustor using operating conditions of a gas turbine, receiving a signal from a sensor that is indicative of combustion dynamics in the combustor, and detecting a flashback if a frequency of the received signal does not correspond to the predicted frequencies.

摘要:
A dry low NOx (DLN) fuel nozzle of a fuel system is provided and includes one or more downstream orifices formed to define a first fluid path along which fluid is directed to flow, an upstream orifice, located upstream from the one or more downstream orifices, formed to define a second fluid path along which the fluid is directed to flow and connecting passages disposed to fluidly couple the first and second fluid paths of the downstream and upstream orifices, respectively, to one another. At least one of a radial size and an axial location of the upstream orifice is set to cooperatively detune an acoustic impedance of the fuel system.

A turbomachine includes a compressor, a turbine operatively coupled to the compressor, and a combustor fluidly linking the compressor and the turbine. The combustor includes at least one fuel nozzle. The at least one fuel nozzle includes a flow passage including a body having first end that extends to a second end through at least one flow channel having a flow area. A fuel inlet is provided at the first end of the body. The fuel inlet is configured to receive at least one fuel. A fuel outlet is provided at the second end of the body. A control flow passage is fluidly connected to the body between the first and second ends. The control flow passage is configured and disposed to deliver a control flow into the fuel nozzle. The control flow establishes a selectively variable effective flow area of the flow passage.

In exemplary embodiments, a gas turbine system is provided. The gas turbine system can include a compressor configured to compress air and combustor cans in flow communication with the compressor, the combustor cans being configured to receive compressed air from the compressor and to combust a fuel stream. The gas turbine system can also include a multi-circuit manifold coupled to the combustor cans and configured to provide a split fuel stream from the fuel stream to the combustor cans.
摘要:
A combustor for a gas turbine engine and related method is provided in which a plurality of combustor cans are selectively adapted with corresponding resonators. The resonators may, for example, be attached to every can in the consecutive arrangement of combustor cans, every other can, every third can or the like, and may be tuned to the same or first, second, third, etc. frequencies of operation. Such selective tuning is configured to suppress one or more of out-of-phase and in-phase dynamic interaction of streams discharged from adjacent combustor cans by changing the frequencies of pressure oscillation instabilities across the arrangement of consecutive cans.
