    摘要: Reducing NO.sub.x emission levels from a gas turbine combustor having a premixer section by mixing a small portion of air into the fuel prior to injection into the premixer section. The portion of diverted air is approximately five percent of the total amount of air injected into the premixer section or such that the resulting fuel-air mixture in the fuel line is approximately half fuel and half air. The injection of air into the fuel line, referred to as "head start partial premixing," is effective to reduce the fluctuations and nonuniformities in the fuel concentration levels which increase NO.sub.x output.

    摘要: It has been found that in a dry low NOx combustor of the type having an upstream combustion chamber and a downstream combustion chamber interconnected by a venturi section, the fuel-air ratio and uniform fuel-air mixing can be improved by providing an annular shield upstream of the venturi region. The shield is impingement cooled through the venturi and provision is made for dumping cooling air farther downsteam in the downstream combustion chamber. With the aforesaid improvements in mind, the upstream combustion chamber is provided with first and second inner liners which are also impringement cooled an which provide combustion air farther upstream into the upstream combustion chamber to further improve fuel-air mixing and to maintain the desired fuel-air ratio.

    摘要: The control of nitrogen oxides (NOx) is an important feature in the design and operation of gas turbines. It has been found that the production of NOx is affected by the fuel-air ratio within the combustor liner. To this end, an improved combustor liner is proposed which allows the distribution of combustion air and dilution air into the combustion liner in accordance with temperature conditions immediately surrounding the combustor liner. In one embodiment, an apertured ring is rotated in and out of register with dilution air holes in the liner to selectively affect the amount of dilution air and therefore also combustion air into the liner. The ring is driven by a temperature sensitve metals trip wound about the combustor liner. In another embodiment of the invention, the residence time of the combustion reaction is affected by the selection of upstream and or downstream dilution air holes in accordance with the position of the ring holes.
