Abstract: A gas turbine includes a combustor liner having at least one hole formed therein. The gas turbine also includes a flow sleeve that at least partially surrounds the liner thereby forming a plenum between the flow sleeve and the liner, the plenum having an airflow therethrough, a portion of the airflow passing through the at least one hole in the liner and into the liner thereby reducing the mass of the airflow in the plenum. The flow sleeve has an axial profile that is reduced in cross section dimension at a predetermined axial location of the flow sleeve, thereby reducing a width of the plenum at the predetermined axial location. The reduction at the cross section dimension in the flow sleeve increases a velocity of the airflow in the plenum at the predetermined axial location, the increased velocity airflow increasing transfer of heat away from the liner.

Abstract: A reformer for use in a gas turbine engine specially configured to treat a supplemental fuel feed to the combustor that includes a reformer core containing a catalyst composition and an inlet flow channel for transporting the reformer fuel mixture, air and steam (either saturated or superheated) into a reformer core. An outlet flow channel transports the resulting reformate stream containing reformed and thermally cracked hydrocarbons and substantial amounts of hydrogen out of the reformer core for later combination with the main combustor feed. Because the catalytic partial oxidation reaction in the reformer is highly exothermic, the additional heat is transferred (and thermally integrated) using one or more heat exchange units for a first and/or second auxiliary gas turbine fuel stream that undergo thermal cracking and vaporization before combining with the reformate. The combined, hydrogen-enriched feed significantly improves combustor performance.
