Integrated Fuel Gas Characterization System
US Patent:
2010020, Aug 19, 2010
Filed:
Apr 29, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/769918
Inventors:
Pratyush Nag - Oviedo FL, US
Damien G. Teehan - St. Cloud FL, US
Khalil F. Abou-Jaoude - Winter Springs FL, US

International Classification:
F02C 3/30
US Classification:
60775
Abstract:
A gas turbine engine that includes a compressor, a combustion stage, a turbine assembly, a fuel gas feed system for supplying fuel gas to a combustion stage of the gas turbine, an integrated fuel gas characterization system, and a buffer tank is disclosed. The integrated fuel gas characterization system may determine the heating value of the fuel and adjust engine operating parameters such as fuel flow; or steam flow or water injection, or both, input to maintain a design fuel-to-air ratio. The integrated fuel gas characterization system can minimize or eliminate megawatt load swings experienced by the gas turbine engine, extending turbine component life and reducing other operational issues, such as the risk of flashback, engine overfiring, combustion dynamics, increased emissions, and exhaust stream temperature spikes.
Secondary Water Injection For Diffusion Combustion Systems
US Patent:
2011031, Dec 29, 2011
Filed:
Jun 20, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/163826
Inventors:
Khalil F. Abou-Jaoude - Winter Springs FL, US
Stephen E. Mumford - Longwood FL, US
Stephen E. Mumford - Longwood FL, US
International Classification:
F02C 7/22
US Classification:
60772, 60734
Abstract:
Emissions and combustion dynamics of a turbine engine are managed through a combustor system that injects water into the primary fuel flow and supplies a secondary water steam to the flame zone of the combustor through a central, secondary liquid nozzle or of the fuel nozzle assembly.
