This report documents the expanded scope of work on Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) Contract RP2112-5, ''Evaluation of Coal Liquids as Utility Combustion Turbine Fuels'' performed by Westinghouse Electric Corporation. The objective of the Laboratory Test Program was to evaluate the Integrated Two-Stage Liquefaction (ITSL) coal-derived distillate fuel produced at the Wilsonville, Alabama Advanced Liquefaction Unit as a utility combustion turbine fuel. Combustor performance, wall temperatures, and emissions test data obtained when burning the ITSL fuel were analyzed and compared with prior coal derived liquid (CDL) test data. The data also correlated well the prior laboratory and field test data obtained for both conventional petroleum distillate and a range of coal-derived distillate fuels. The test results confirmed the acceptability of the ITSL fuel for combustion turbines. 4 refs., 48 figs., 37 tabs.
