This paper gives the development status of GE's new aeroderivative premixed combustion system. This system consists of a new fuel staged annular combustor, compressor rear frame, first-stage turbine nozzle, electronic staging controller, and fuel delivery system. Component test results along with a description of the combustion system are presented. This new system will reduce NO[sub x] emissions by 90% relative to the original aircraft engine combustion system while maintaining low emissions of CO and UHCs. Tests of a LM6000 gas turbine equipped with the new system are planned for early 1994.
