Combustion characteristics of a catalytic combustor for ceramic gas turbine -- Kerosene fuels blended with light cycle oil

摘要

Catalytic combustion has superior features for achieving low emission combustion systems andmulti-fuel utilization. A high potential for realizing ultra low NO{sub}x emission was proved bycatalytic combustor for a ceramic gas turbine under high combustor inlet air temperature andpressurized air conditions with kerosene (ref.3). This paper outlines the catalytic combustion processand low emission characteristics of a catalytic combustor using three kinds of kerosene fuels blendedwith light cycle oil that include different nitrogen amount in fuels.
