In exemplary embodiments, a gas turbine system is provided. The gas turbine system can include a compressor configured to compress air and combustor cans in flow communication with the compressor, the combustor cans being configured to receive compressed air from the compressor and to combust a fuel stream. The gas turbine system can also include a multi-circuit manifold coupled to the combustor cans and configured to provide a split fuel stream from the fuel stream to the combustor cans.

A combustor for a gas turbine engine and related method is provided in which a plurality of combustor cans are selectively adapted with corresponding resonators. The resonators may, for example, be attached to every can in the consecutive arrangement of combustor cans, every other can, every third can or the like, and may be tuned to the same or first, second, third, etc. frequencies of operation. Such selective tuning is configured to suppress one or more of out-of-phase and in-phase dynamic interaction of streams discharged from adjacent combustor cans by changing the frequencies of pressure oscillation instabilities across the arrangement of consecutive cans.

A tunable fluid flow control system for controlling combustion dynamics in a combustor is disclosed. The control system includes a fuel supply path having an inlet portion, a first diverted portion, a second diverted portion, and an exit portion. A first diverted portion has a first length and a first diameter. A second diverted portion has a second length and a second diameter and spaced apart from the first diverted portion. The first and second diverted portions converge at a merging location. The exit portion is coupled to the merging location of the first and second diverted portions. At least one flow regulation device is coupled to the inlet portion and configured to divert fuel flow to the first and second diverted portions alternately to generate fuel flow perturbations at the merging location.

A system for suppressing combustion instability in a turbomachine includes at least one combustion chamber operatively connected to the turbomachine, and at least one pre-mixer mounted to the at least one combustion chamber. The at least one pre-mixer is configured to receive an amount of fuel and an amount of air that is combined and discharged into the at least one combustion chamber. In addition, the turbomachine includes a combustion instability suppression system operatively associated with the at least one pre-mixer. The combustion instability suppression system is configured to create a combustion asymmetry. The combustion asymmetry facilitates combustion instability suppression in the turbomachine.
摘要:
A combustor minimizes combustion emissions at a lower level of combustion dynamics during combustor even fuel-split conditions by varying the fuel impedance through geometrical changes or inert addition in various nozzle groups than that achievable during combustor even fuel-split conditions with a multi-fuel nozzle combustor using a nozzle fuel impedance that is common to all nozzles while emitting substantially the same level of combustion emissions.

摘要:
A dry low NOx (DLN) fuel nozzle of a fuel system is provided and includes one or more downstream orifices formed to define a first fluid path along which fluid is directed to flow, an upstream orifice, located upstream from the one or more downstream orifices, formed to define a second fluid path along which the fluid is directed to flow and connecting passages disposed to fluidly couple the first and second fluid paths of the downstream and upstream orifices, respectively, to one another. At least one of a radial size and an axial location of the upstream orifice is set to cooperatively detune an acoustic impedance of the fuel system.
摘要:
A gas turbine engine control system comprises a data acquisition and analysis system for receiving a signal from a combustion dynamics sensor and providing an output signal and a combustion dynamics control system for controlling combustion dynamics based on the output signal. The control system is associated with a purge-air flow and comprises an acoustic driver, or a flow-manipulating device, or both to perturb the purge-air flow entering the combustor can for controlling combustion dynamics.
