Study on Combustion and Emission Performance of Hydrogen Fuel Gas Turbine Combustor
To meet the requirements of the safety and reliability for de-carbonization of gas turbine power systems
the performance changes and hydrogen admixture limits of the dry low emission(DLE)lean premixed(LP)combustor fueled with natural gas when switching to hydrogen fuel was numerically studied. The F-class heavy-duty gas turbine combustor for power generation was selected as the study object. Details of the actual combustor geometry were included in the simulations. The effects of different hydrogen admixture ratios of natural gas(6 working conditions of volume content for 0-100% H

)on the combusti
on and emission performance of the gas turbine combustor are numerically studied. Potential problems in the combustion chamber during fuel switching are analyzed. The results have shown that there is a huge risk of flashback when significant amounts of hydrogen are added to fuel mixtures in the LP combustor fueled with natural gas. When the hydrogen content reaches 40%
the high temperature area of the burner nozzle caused by the flashback is obvious. With a higher hydrogen content
the head parts of the combustion chamber is at risk of being burned down and the high temperature flame may propagates upstream along the pipeline
which brings huge safety problems to the system. There is no risk of flashback in the diffusion flame hold in the center pilot burners. The content of CO and CO

levels in the combustor outlet show an increasing trend with the increase of the hydrogen content
but the rate of increase is not significant.
