Abstract: Ultrahigh efficiency, ultralow emission fuel cell gas turbine (FC/GT) hybrid technology represents a significant breakthrough in electric power generation. FC/GT hybrid designs are potentially fuel flexible, dynamically ...

Abstract: The maximum firing temperature of a gas turbine (GT) is limited by material constraints. Critical for the operation of the GT is the blade metal temperature, which is impacted by the heat transfer from the combustor outlet ...

Abstract: Flashback is a major concern for engine operation and safety, particularly with progress toward renewably producible and cleaner-burning fuels, such as hydrogen fuel blends. This work extends prior progress in developing ...

Abstract: The present work investigated the effects of fuel components on particulate matter (PM) from a natural gasfueled micro gas turbine engine. A variety of fuel compositions were prepared considering atomic ratio of hydrogen ...

Abstract: This work presents the atomization characteristics and dynamics of water-in-heptane (W/H) emulsions injected into a gaseous crossflow. W/H mixtures were tested while varying momentum flux ratios and aerodynamic Weber ...

Abstract: The present work investigates the effect of natural gas fuel sulfur on particulate emissions from stationary gas turbine engines used for electricity generation. Fuel sulfur from standard line gas was scrubbed using a ...

Abstract: Cold-flow spray researchers have an array of diagnostic tools to extract meaningful information on spray characteristics. The efficacy of many of these tools, however, depends heavily on calibration, alignment, human ...
