GE embarked on the detailed design of a new gas-fired, premixed combustion system for its family of aeroderivative gas turbines. This new lean premixed system, sometimes referred to as a dry low-NO[sub x], or a dry low-emissions combustion system, will reduce the emissions of NO[sub x] to less than 25 ppm. The emissions of other pollutants, such as CO, unburned hydrocarbons (UHC), and particulates are also expected to be extremely low. The effects of engine operating conditions and combustor film cooling on emissions and lean flame stability were also studied in some detail. 4 figs.
