Analysis of main gaseous emissions of heavy duty gas turbines burning several syngas fuels

摘要

This work presents the development of a simple analytical model of performance for heavy duty gas turbine combustors and its use for the analysis of main emissions for a set of syngas fuels. This set of syngas fuels has been selected as a wide representation of different compositions of syngas fuels, from fossil or vegetal origins. Their combustion processes have been modelled as a set of chemical reactors in serial and a detailed kinetic model, simulating a conventional diffusion flame combustor. In each slice, the thermodynamics and the kinetics have been modelled using perfect stirred reactor models. The combustor model has been validated with the GE MS7001F gas turbine experimental data. From this validation the model applicability range has been established for combustor outlet temperatures above 1200 K. Finally the combustor model has been applied to the comparison of different syngas fuels emissions in three new generation gas turbines.
