Abstract: This paper presents a thermal investigation of the integrated combustor vane concept for power generation gas turbines with individual can combustors. This concept has the potential to replace the high-pressure turbine’s ...

Abstract: This paper presents the development and aerothermal investigation of the integrated combustor vane concept for power generation gas turbines with individual can combustors. In this novel concept, first introduced in 2010, ...

Abstract: The integrated combustor vane concept for power generation gas turbines with can combustors has been shown to have significant benefits compared to conventional nozzle guide vanes (NGV). Aerodynamic loss, heat transfer ...

Abstract: The flow at the combustor turbine interface of power generation gas turbines with can combustors is characterized by high and nonuniform turbulence levels, lengthscales, and residual swirl. These complexities have a ...
