Low-Emissions Combustor Demonstration.

Abstract

The objective of this eighteen-month program were to further develop two low-emission combustors-the prechamber combustor and the modified conventional combustor to install them in a Detroit Diesel Allison Model 250-C20B engine, and to evaluate their performance in an engine environment. The combustors were to retain the 50% overall reduction in gas turbine mass emissions with no increase in any individual pollutant when tested over a typical Army light observation helicopter (LOH) duty cycle.
