Abstract:
A system includes a gas turbine combustor configured to combust a fuel and an oxidant, such as O2 and O2 mixtures. The system also includes an aerodynamic peg disposed in the gas turbine combustor. The aerodynamic peg includes a first passage configured to convey a first fluid into the gas turbine combustor and a second passage configured to convey a second fluid into the gas turbine combustor. The first fluid and second fluid are different from one another.
Abstract:
A system for vibration damping a fuel nozzle within a combustor includes a support plate, a fuel nozzle passage that extends through the support plate and a cylindrical damping insert that is coaxially aligned within the fuel nozzle passage and at least partially defines the fuel nozzle passage. The damping insert may include a metallic-mesh liner.
Abstract:
A crossfire tube assembly between adjacent combustors includes a first sleeve adapted to provide fluid communication from a first combustor and a second sleeve adapted to connect to provide fluid communication from a second combustor. The second sleeve extends at least partially inside the first sleeve. A bias is between the first and second sleeves.
Abstract:
A system including a gas turbine engine, including a combustor configured to generate products of combustion, a turbine driven by the products of combustion from the combustor, a compressor having a compressor discharge leading into a chamber between the combustor and a compressor discharge casing, an extraction manifold coupled to the combustor, wherein the extraction manifold is fluidly coupled to the chamber.
Abstract:
A tool kit for decoupling a telescoping tube from a first liner of a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The tool kit includes a base plate coupled to a combustor casing. A post extends outward from the base plate into a combustion chamber defined by the liner. A plunger slidably mounts to the post and is slidable between an extended position and a retracted position. A lever arm pivotably couples to the post and the plunger. Pivoting the lever arm in a first direction slides the plunger to the extended position to decouple the telescoping tube from the liner. A retaining clip couples to the combustor casing and extends into an annular plenum at least partially defined between the liner and the combustor casing. The retaining clip defines a notch that receives the telescoping tube after the plunger assembly decouples the telescoping tube from the liner.
Abstract:
The present application provides a pilot manifold system for a combustor of a gas turbine engine. The pilot manifold system may include a casing with a casing manifold, an end cover connected to the casing and having an end cover passage in communication with the casing manifold, and a fuel nozzle mounted about the end cover. The fuel nozzle may include a pilot system in communication with the end cover passage.
Abstract:
A seal test fixture for a gas turbine fuel nozzle including an enclosed container for receiving a body of the gas turbine fuel nozzle including a seal; a test chamber coupled to the enclosed container for sealingly enclosing a flange of the gas turbine fuel nozzle and fluidly communicating with a leak path of the gas turbine fuel nozzle; an air injector opening through which pressurized air is injected into a main fuel chamber of the gas turbine fuel nozzle; and a pressure gauge for measuring an air pressure within the test chamber.
