Effects of Gas Turbine Combustion on Soot Deposition.

Abstract

The effects of premixing the reaction air and fuel of a gas turbine combustor on soot formation were investigated. Other parameters such as pressure, temperature and reaction zone fuel-air ratio were also evaluated. Soot formation was found to be dominated by fuel-air premixing and could be suppressed readily through a partial premix process. (Author)
