Abstract

This study is the first to present the emission characteristics of the fuel staging method for a pure ammonia-air flame using a coaxial tangential injection combustor. The primary combustor used in this study had the same swirl number of 3.3 as in a previous study; however, the dimension of the combustor was increased to examine at a higher thermal load. The emissions of NO, NO₂, N₂O, and NH₃ were measured simultaneously under an elevated pressure. Consequently, secondary ammonia injection (fuel staging) was confirmed to be effective for NO_x abatement even under pressurized conditions. In addition, excessive secondary ammonia injection exhibited an additional NO_x reduction effect coupled with the generation of unburned N₂O and NH₃. The optimized amounts of NO_x, N₂O, and NH₃ were 83, 23, and 11 ppm (@15 % O₂, dry), respectively. The results of this study are expected to be useful as significant design and operating data for pure ammonia gas turbines.

高压条件下同轴切向喷射燃烧器中氨气火焰的排放控制

本研究首次介绍了使用同轴切向喷射燃烧器的纯氨气火焰燃料分级法的排放特性。本研究中使用的主燃烧器的漩涡数为 3.3，与之前的研究相同；但是，为了研究更高的热负荷，增加了燃烧器的尺寸。在高压下同时测量了 NO、NO2、N2O 和 NH3 的排放量。因此，即使在加压条件下，二次氨喷射（燃料分级）也能有效减少氮氧化物。此外，过量的二次氨水喷射在产生未燃烧的 N2O 和 NH3 的同时，还具有额外的氮氧化物减排效果。氮氧化物、N2O 和 NH3 的优化量分别为 83、23 和 11 ppm（@15 % O2，干）。这项研究的结果有望成为纯氨燃气轮机的重要设计和运行数据。
