A steady computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis is performed by simulating a reactive flow with a detailed chemical reaction model. The numerical analysis is validated based on experimental investigations. A quantitative correlation is parametrized based on the numerical results. We find, that the flame initiation point shifts with increasing pressure from anchoring behind a downstream located bluff body towards anchoring upstream at the hydrogen jet. The numerical NOx emissions trend regarding to a variation of pressure is in good agreement with the experimental results. The pressure has an impact on both, the residence time within the maximum temperature region and on the peak temperature itself. In conclusion, the numerical model proved to be adequate for future prototype design exploration studies targeting on improving the operating range.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StrieganHajAyedFunkeetal.2017, author = {Striegan, C. and Haj Ayed, A. and Funke, Harald and Loechle, S. and Kazari, M. and Horikawa, A. and Okada, K. and Koga, K.}, title = {Numerical combustion and heat transfer simulations and validation for a hydrogen fueled "micromix" test combustor in industrial gas turbine applications}, series = {Proceedings of the ASME Turbo Expo}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the ASME Turbo Expo}, number = {Volume Part F130041-4B, 2017}, isbn = {978-079185085-5}, doi = {10.1115/GT2017-64719}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{BohnFunkeGier1999, author = {Bohn, D. and Funke, Harald and Gier, J.}, title = {Numerical and Experimental Investigations on the Flow in a 4-Stage Turbine with Special Focus on the Development of a Radial Temperature Streak}, series = {ASME Turbo Expo 1999, Indianapolis, USA, 1999}, journal = {ASME Turbo Expo 1999, Indianapolis, USA, 1999}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @article{BohnFunkeSuerkenetal.2001, author = {Bohn, Dieter and Funke, Harald and S{\"u}rken, Norbert and Kreitmeier, F.}, title = {Numerical and experimental investigations on endwall contouring in a four-stage turbine}, series = {ASME Turbo Expo Land Sea \& Air 2001 : June 4 - 8, 2001, New Orleans, Louisiana / IGTI, International Gas Turbine Institute.

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{FunkeBoernerKeinzetal.2012, author = {Funke, Harald and B{\"o}rner, Sebastian and Keinz, Jan and Kusterer, K. and Kroninger, D. and Kitajima, J. and Kazari, M. and Horikama, A.}, title = {Numerical and experimental characterization of low NOx Micromix combustion principle for industrial hydrogen gas turbine applications}, series = {Proceedings of ASME Turbo Expo 2012}, booktitle = {Proceedings of ASME Turbo Expo 2012}, pages = {11}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @incollection{FunkeBoernerHendricketal.2011, author = {Funke, Harald and B{\"o}rner, Sebastian and Hendrick, P. and Recker, E.}, title = {Modification and testing of an engine and fuel control system for a hydrogen fuelled gas turbine}, series = {Progress in Propulsion Physics.

Based on a simplified Airbus A320-type flight mission, a thermodynamic performance model of a kerosene and a hydrogen-powered V2530-A5 engine is used to derive the thermodynamic combustor boundary conditions. A new combustor design using the Dry-Low NOx Micromix principle is investigated by slice model CFD simulations of a single Micromix injector for design and off-design operation of the engine. Combustion characteristics show typical Micromix flame shapes and good combustion efficiencies for all flight mission operating points. Nitric oxide emissions are significant below ICAO CAEP/8 limits. For comparison of the Emission Index (EI) for NOₓ emissions between kerosene and hydrogen operation, an energy (kerosene) equivalent Emission Index is used. A full 15° sector model CFD simulation of the combustion chamber with multiple Micromix injectors including inflow homogenization and dilution and cooling air flows investigates the combustor integration effects, resulting NOₓ emission and radial temperature distributions at the combustor outlet. The results show that the integration of a Micromix hydrogen combustor in actual aircraft engines is feasible and offers, besides CO₂ free combustion, a significant reduction of NOₓ emissions compared to kerosene operation.}, language = {en} } @article{DickhoffHorikawaFunke2021, author = {Dickhoff, Jens and Horikawa, Atsushi and Funke, Harald}, title = {Hydrogen Combustion - new DLE Combustor Addresses NOx Emissions and Flashback}, series = {Turbomachinery international : the global journal of energy equipment}, volume = {62}, journal = {Turbomachinery international : the global journal of energy equipment}, number = {4}, publisher = {MJH Life Sciences}, address = {Cranbury}, issn = {2767-2328}, pages = {26 -- 27}, year = {2021}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FunkeBeckmann2019, author = {Funke, Harald and Beckmann, Nils}, title = {Flexible Fuel Operation of a Dry-Low-Nox Micromix Combustor with Variable Hydrogen Methane Mixtures}, series = {Proceedings of International Gas Turbine Congress 2019 Tokyo, November 17-22, 2019, Tokyo, Japan}, booktitle = {Proceedings of International Gas Turbine Congress 2019 Tokyo, November 17-22, 2019, Tokyo, Japan}, isbn = {978-4-89111-010-9}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{FunkeBeckmann2022, author = {Funke, Harald and Beckmann, Nils}, title = {Flexible fuel operation of a Dry-Low-NOx Micromix Combustor with Variable Hydrogen Methane Mixture}, series = {International Journal of Gas Turbine, Propulsion and Power Systems}, volume = {13}, journal = {International Journal of Gas Turbine, Propulsion and Power Systems}, number = {2}, issn = {1882-5079}, pages = {1 -- 7}, year = {2022}, abstract = {The role of hydrogen (H2) as a carbon-free energy carrier is discussed since decades for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
