Currently the ongoing research process targets flexible fuel operation with hydrogen and syngas fuel. The non-premixed combustion process features jet-in-crossflow-mixing of fuel and oxidizer and combustion through multiple miniaturized flames. The miniaturization of the flames leads to a significant reduction of NOx emissions due to the very short residence time of reactants in the flame. The paper presents the results of a numerical and experimental combustor test campaign. It is conducted as part of an integration study for a dual-fuel (H2 and H2/CO 90/10 Vol.\%) Micromix combustion chamber prototype for application under full scale, pressurized gas turbine conditions in the auxiliary power unit Honeywell Garrett GTCP 36-300. In the presented experimental studies, the integration-optimized dual-fuel Micromix combustor geometry is tested at atmospheric pressure over a range of gas turbine operating conditions with hydrogen and syngas fuel. The experimental investigations are supported by numerical combustion and flow simulations. For validation, the results of experimental exhaust gas analyses are applied. Despite the significantly differing fuel characteristics between pure hydrogen and hydrogen-rich syngas the evaluated dual-fuel Micromix prototype shows a significant low NOx performance and high combustion efficiency. The combustor features an increased energy density that benefits manufacturing complexity and costs.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FunkeKeinzHendrick2017, author = {Funke, Harald and Keinz, Jan and Hendrick, P.}, title = {Experimental Evaluation of the Pollutant and Noise Emissions of the GTCP 36-300 Gas Turbine Operated with Kerosene and a Low NOX Micromix Hydrogen Combustor}, series = {7th European Conference for Aeronautics and Space Sciences, EUCASS 2017}, booktitle = {7th European Conference for Aeronautics and Space Sciences, EUCASS 2017}, organization = {7th European Conference for Aeronautics and Space Sciences, EUCASS 2017-125, Milan, Italy, July 2017}, doi = {10.13009/EUCASS2017-125}, pages = {10 Seiten}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{FunkeKeinzKustereretal.2017, author = {Funke, Harald and Keinz, Jan and Kusterer, K. and Haj Ayed, A. and Kazari, M. and Kitajima, J. and Horikawa, A. and Okada, K.}, title = {Development and Testing of a Low NOX Micromix Combustion Chamber for an Industrial Gas Turbine}, series = {International Journal of Gas Turbine, Propulsion and Power Systems}, volume = {9}, journal = {International Journal of Gas Turbine, Propulsion and Power Systems}, number = {1}, issn = {1882-5079}, doi = {10.38036/jgpp.9.1_27}, pages = {27 -- 36}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The Micromix combustion principle, based on cross-flow mixing of air and hydrogen, promises low emission applications in future gas turbines. The Micromix combustion takes place in several hundreds of miniaturized diffusion-type micro-flames. The major advantage is the inherent safety against flash-back and low NOx-emissions due to a very short residence time of reactants in the flame region. The paper gives insight into the Micromix design and scaling procedure for different energy densities and the interaction of scaling laws and key design drivers in gas turbine integration. Numerical studies, experimental testing, gas turbine integration and interface considerations are evaluated. The aerodynamic stabilization of the miniaturized flamelets and the resulting flow field, flame structure and NOx formation are analysed experimentally and numerically. The results show and confirm the successful adaption of the low NOx Micromix characteristics for a range of different nozzle sizes, energy densities and thermal power output.}, language = {de} } @article{AyedKustererFunkeetal.2017, author = {Ayed, Anis Haj and Kusterer, Karsten and Funke, Harald and Keinz, Jan and Bohn, D.}, title = {CFD based exploration of the dry-low-NOx hydrogen micromix combustion technology at increased energy densities}, series = {Propulsion and Power Research}, volume = {6}, journal = {Propulsion and Power Research}, number = {1}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, isbn = {2212-540X}, doi = {10.1016/j.jppr.2017.01.005}, pages = {15 -- 24}, year = {2017}, language = {en} }
