Definitions
- a combustion apparatus for a regenerative gas turbine engine includes a combustion liner providing for prevaporization and premixing of fuel, for extended residence time after primary combustion, and for delayed dilution of the combustion products.
- the liner includes a premix-prevaporiation zone with relatively small crosssectional area, with fuel injecting means at the upstream end. Air flows without swirl through this zone, and through a flare in the liner where the cross section area increases greatly into the combustion zone.
- a centerbody in the flare directs flow along the inner surface of the wall and additionally heats the fuel-air mixture.
- Supports for the centerbody define spaced chutes for the air entering the combustion apparatus, and vanes extending inwardly from the wall downstream of the flare deflect the flow from the chutes toward the center of the combustion zone.
- Combustion air is admitted only through the premix-prevaporization zone.
- the combuston zone and part of a residence zone downstream of the combustionzone are cooled by convection only, using dilution air. Entrance holes for dilution air are near the downstream end of the liner.
- My invention is directed to combustion apparatus, particularly to combustion apparatus for use at relatively high air inlet temperatures, and usually at considerable pressure, as contrasted to operation near normal atmospheric conditions.
- the preferred embodiment of my invention is intended as a combustion apparatus for a regenerative gas turbine engine such as might be used for vehicle or aircraft propulsion.
- Such engines operate at pressure ratios of the order of four orfive to one, which means that the pressure of the air in the combustion apparatus under sea level standard conditions rises to 45 to 60 psig.
- the air is heated to some extent by the compression; in a regenerative engine, it is additionally heated by heat transfer from air exhausted from the engine, so that the air entering the combustion apparatus under full' power conditions may be at about 900 F.
- Prior art combustion chambers for engines of this sort have incorporated combustion liners within which the combustion takes place, and the principal emphasison design of such liners has been to secure dependable burning of the fuel, minimize pressure drop, minimize the volume of the combustion liner, and provide a durable and trouble-free structure.
- pollutants are principally particulates (normally unburned carbon), carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides resulting from the combination of atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen in the hot combustionzone.
- the preferred combustion apparatus according to my invention involves the following'features to improve emission characteristics:
- a premix-prevaporization section is provided up'- stream of the primary combustion section to premix the fuel and primary 'air and to'preva'porize the fuel ahead ofthe combustion or reaction zone. This is to improve combustor homogeneity and to avoid fuel droplet burning, thereby eliminating carbon entirely.
- the liner provides for sudden expansion from the premix-prevaporization zone to the combustion zone for flame stabilization.
- the primary combustion zone is operated somewhat lean to minimize formation of oxides of nitrogen.
- Dilution of the combustion products is delayed to provide a relatively extended residence of the combustion products for complete consumption of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons.
- the combustion zone is cooled by convection cooling rather than film cooling to avoid quenching of the combustion reactions in relatively cold film cooling air as in prior combustion liners.
- combustion liner having a relatively great length between the point of initiation of flame and the point of dilution or quenching of the flame; to provide combustion apparatus in which a fuel-air mixture flows over a heated centerbody from a premix-prevaporization zone of low cross-sectional area into a combustion zone of large cross-sectional area; and, in general, to provide combustion apparatus that is better suited to the requirements of practice than those now available.
- FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a combustion apparatus embodying the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a cross-section view of the same taken on the plane indicated by the line 2-2 in FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 is a cross-section view taken on the plane indicated by the line 3-3 in FIG. 1.
- the drawings represent the liner according to my invention as installed in combustion apparatus similar to that of the well known T63 aircraft engine, in which the combustion apparatus is of a single can type and the single liner discharges-into an annular turbine inlet. In that engine, compressed air issupplied to the combustion apparatus through air tubes entering'the side of a combustion casing. It should be understood, however, that my invention is directed particularly to the structure of the liner and to its cooperation with the combustion outer'casing and that various'types of combustion casings or air supply means may be used. Also, the liner need not have an annular outlet. Also, the principles of the invention may be embodied in an annular combustion liner in which the liner is constituted by outer and inner wallshaving an annular combustion space betweenfthem.
- the combustion apparatus includes a casing 2 adapted to receive air under pressure and a liner 3.
- the casing 2 is bolted at flanges 4 to an outer case 6 of the turbine of a gas turbine engine.
- the casing 2 includes a generally cylindrical portion extending in the upstream direction from the flanges 4 and an enlarged upstream portion 7 closed by an end cover 8.
- the combustion air is discharged through air tubes 10 into a plenum 11 defined by the upstream portion of the casing.
- the liner 3 which is of circular cross-section in the form illustrated, has a side wall 12 defining in succession from the upstream end of the liner a primary or combustion air entrance 14, a generally cylindrical premix-prevaporization zone 15, a flare 16, a combustion zone 18, a residence zone 19, and a dilution zone 20.
- the downstream end of the liner fits within an outer turbine shroud 22, and a flange 23 on the exterior of the downstream end of the liner fits over shroud 22.
- the liner is thus located at its downstream or discharge end on the turbine outer shroud.
- An annular baffle 24 mounted on the turbine defines with the shroud 22 an annular entrance 26 into the turbine for the motive fluid generated in the combustion apparatus.
- a wall indicated schematically at 27 blocks flow of air through the gap between the casing and liner.
- the upstream end of liner 3 is supported on a fuel injection ring 28 disposed within the entrance 14 and supported by the fuel tubes 30 or other supporting means from a fitting 31 suitably fixed to the end cover 8.
- Fuel is supplied to the combustion apparatus through a fuel tube 32.
- the combustion apparatus is designed for use with a liquid hydrocarbon fuel.
- the fuel injection ring 28 thus supports the upstream end of the liner.
- the fuel injection ring which is of known type, is considered to be the most suitable means for carburetting the air flowing into the inlet.
- the fuel injection ring 28 is a composite circular ring defining an internal circular manifold 34 for fuel supplied through tubes 30 and having ports 35 extending from the manifold and directed tangentially to the interior surface of ring 28 to discharge fuel in the form of an annulus on the inner surface of the ring. This fuel is discharged behind a step or shoulder 36 on the interiorof the ring.
- struts 38 extend from the exterior of ring 28 to the wall of the liner. Air under pressure flows from the plenum 11 over the exterior and through the interior of fuel injection ring 28 and downstream through the premix-prevaporization zone 15. The fuel is airblast atomized off ring 28 by the air flowing past it. During travel through the premix-prevaporization zone, the heated air evaporates the fuel so as to provide a substantially homogeneous mixture of air and vaporized fuel. It should be noted that the struts 38 are not swirlers, and that the air preferably flows through the zone with no circumferential component of velocity.
- a centerbody 39 of circular cross section the outer surfaceof which roughly parallels the inner surface of the liner wall.
- the centerbody is'hollow and is open at'its downstream end so that heat from combustion in the combustion zone heats the centerbody, thus contributing a slight amount of heat to the air-fuel mixture flowing over it.
- the centerbody is supported from the flaring wall portion 16 by eight generally V-shaped sheet metal struts or air guides 40 distributed around the circumference of the centerbody which may be welded to the centerbody and liner wall. These air guides define eight air chutes 42 between the struts. The chute outlets occupy approximately half of the circumference of the annular passage 43 between the centerbody and the liner wall.
- the centerbody serves to deflect the flow of air and fuel along the inside of the wall 16 and the chutes concentrate this flow into eight jets evenly distributed around the circumference.
- the centerbody and struts are heated by the combustion just downstream of them and therefore these heated bodies additionally heat the incoming air and fuel somewhat.
- the centerbody 39 acts as a flow director. creating a turbulent zone behind it to retain the flame against blowing out downstream of the liner. From the flare 16, the wall 12 of the liner continues first cylindrical and then slightly diverging to the downstream end of the liner. A thorough mixing of the fuel and air in the combustion zone 18 is promoted by a ring of eight turning vanes 44 welded to the wall, the form of which will be apparent from FIGS. 2 and 3. These deflect the incoming air-fuel mixture flowing through the chutes 42 toward the axis of the combustion liner and promote formation of a generally toroidal vortex flow and recirculation in the combustion zone to stabilize combustion. The combustion occurs in the region near the flare l6 and vanes 44 and the resulting combustion products, in which the fuel is almost entire burned, flow through the residence zone 19 toward the combustion chamber outlet.
- approximately 40 percent of the total air supplied to the combustion apparatus enters through the air entrance l4 and constitutes combustion air.
- the remaining 60 percent is dilution air which flows radially inward from the casing through a ring of six large dilution air holes 46 disposed near the downstream end of the liner.
- the space abreast of these holes and extending to the outlet of the liner constitutes the dilution zone 20.
- the proportions of primary air and dilution air may, of course, be varied to suit a particular installation.
- the dilution air before entering the liner through the holes 46, is used to cool the outer surface of the liner from the flare 16 downstream by convection cooling, avoiding any introduction of air into the liner for film cooling, for instance. Cooling is promoted by an annular shroud 47 surrounding and spaced from the wall 12 of the downstream portion of the liner.
- the shroud 47 is mounted over; the wall 12 with freedom for relative expansion of the parts by a structure including six plates 48 extending radially outwardly from the inner 7 wall adjacent the flare 16 and six similar plates 50 at the downstream end of the shroud 47. These plates are slidable in slots in the leading and trailing edges of the shroud 47 so the liner may expand radially relative to the cooler shroud.
- Plates 48 may be welded to the liner before the shroud is put in place andplates then may be inserted in the slots of the shroud and welded to the liner wall.
- a ring of spacers 51 disposed around the outer surface of the liner wall 12 near the middle of the length of the shroud prevent distortion of this portion of the shroud from partially closing off the annular flow passage 52 between the wall and shroud.
- a baffle ring or blocking member 54 fixed to the outer surface of shroud 47 extends across the gap between the shroud and the case 2 to minimize or control flow over the outside of the shroud by-passing the cooling air path 52. This blocking member may be considered to divide the space within the casing into an upstream portion ahead of the blocking member and a downstream portion surrounding the residence and dilution zones.
- Hot air under compression ordinarily on the order of four to five atmospheres and heated at about 900 F. in the regenerator (at full power) is introduced into the plenum l1 and hydrocarbon fuel is introduced through pipe 32 into the annular fuel injection ring 28.
- the fuel is discharged circumferentially around the inand then are quenched and diluted by the large quantity of air entering through dilution holes 46.
- the resulting mixture which is of a temperature suitable for use in the turbine, is discharged through the annular outlet 26 into the turbine.
- the equivalence ratio in the primary section of the specific liner described is calculated to be 0.73 under full load conditions. This varies with load conditions, and various fullload values may be adopted. There are reasons to believe a lower equivalence ratio of the order of 0.5 at full load would provide better emission characteristics.
- the advantages of my combustion apparatus are greatest where the incoming air is relatively hot. This is the case with normal regenerative gas turbine engines. It also may be the case with very high pressure ratio engines in which the work of compression raises the incoming air to relatively high temperatures. Also, in some cases, the combustion apparatus may work with air preheated otherwise than by a regenerator. In any event, the combustion chamber is particularly effective with air in the temperature range of 700 to 900 F. or above.
- the apparatus described is well adapted to employ the modes of reduction of undesired contaminants outlined in the introduction to this specification. It will also be seen that it is a relatively simple structure and, while larger than prior art combustion apparatus for such purposes, is not unduly bulky. Specifically, the liner, which is shown to scale in the drawing, is 15 inches long and 6% inches in diameter at its outlet.- it is about 6 inches longer than a typical prior art liner of similar capacity.
