Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of gas turbines, and in particular to a dual-fuel nozzle. Background Art
[0002] A gas turbine is an internal combustion engine that uses a continuously flowing gas as a working fluid to drive a high-speed rotating impeller, converting the fuel's energy into useful work. A gas turbine typically consists of three major components: a compressor, a combustion chamber, and a turbine. The nozzle, a key component within the combustion chamber, injects fuel into the combustion chamber for combustion, releasing energy that is then transferred to the turbine for output. The performance of the nozzle directly affects the flow field structure within the combustion chamber, combustion efficiency, and flameout limit.
[0003] With the continued tightening of environmental standards, improving gas turbine combustion efficiency and reducing pollutant emissions are imperative. To reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, lean direct injection (LDI) low-emission combustion technology has been implemented. LDI utilizes multiple injection points to inject fuel directly into the combustion zone, rapidly atomizing and mixing the fuel and air before ignition and combustion. This multi-point injection significantly increases the contact area between the fuel and air, promoting the rapid formation of a lean mixture between the fuel and air. This lowers flame temperature and eliminates local hotspots, thereby reducing NOx emissions.
[0004] However, during the turbulent diffusion combustion process, the fuel sprayed by the combustion chamber nozzle cannot form a uniform lean combustible mixture, and the overall combustion efficiency is not high, resulting in a large amount of pollutant emissions. Summary of the Invention

[0124] In this embodiment, the air pipe 31 is formed by the third gap 65 between the outer wall of the center body 50 and the second isolation tube structure 62. It is located outside the main oil circuit 21 and is coaxially arranged with the service pipe 12 and the first main oil pipe 212a. There are multiple air inlets 32, which are spaced apart and arranged on the outer wall of the center body 50 (the side wall of the air pipe) and communicate with the air pipe 31. When the center body 50 also includes a boss structure 53 connected to the fixing structure 52, the through hole 533 provided in the boss structure 53 serves as the air inlet 32 and communicates with the air pipe 31.
[0125] Specifically, the air injection holes 33 include multiple injection hole groups, which are arranged around the periphery of the main oil injection hole 213. The injection hole groups include a radial injection hole 33a and an axial injection hole 33b. The radial injection hole 33a faces the main oil injection hole 213 and is located below the main oil injection hole 213. The axial injection hole 33b is located below the radial injection hole 33a. In this embodiment, the air ejected from the radial injection hole 33a is initially mixed with the fuel, while the air ejected from the axial injection hole 33b is secondarily mixed with the fuel.
[0126] Specifically, the air path 30 further includes a radial airflow control structure 34 and an axial airflow control structure 35. The radial airflow control structure 34 is T-shaped, with one end of its transverse portion located at the junction of the radial injection hole 33a and the axial injection hole 33b, and a longitudinal portion connected to the other end of the transverse portion and extending downward, forming a radial airflow outlet with the service nozzle 13. The axial airflow control structure 35 is L-shaped, with one end of its longitudinal portion located at the bottom end of the outer wall of the air tube 31, and a transverse portion connected to the other end of the longitudinal portion and extending inward, forming an axial airflow outlet with the radial airflow control structure 34.

[0127] In this embodiment, the dual-fuel nozzle 1 requires an isolation component 2 to separate and place it in air at different pressures. The isolation component 2 includes a center hole 2a and an edge hole 2b located outside the center hole 2a. When the service line 10 and the main oil line 21 are located within the nozzle housing 40, the nozzle housing 40 extends through the center hole 2a within the isolation component 2 and is secured by welding. Furthermore, the upper portion of the nozzle housing 40, including the main oil inlet 211 and the service inlet 11, is exposed to low-pressure air, while the lower portion of the nozzle housing 40 is exposed to high-pressure air. The main air pipe 222 extends through the edge hole 2b and is secured by welding. The upper portion of the main air pipe 222, including the main air inlet 221, is exposed to low-pressure air, while the lower portion of the main air pipe 222 is exposed to high-pressure air. Optionally, the isolation component 2 includes, but is not limited to, a band and a mounting flange. In this embodiment, the isolation component selected is a band.
[0128] See below Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the working process of the dual-fuel nozzle of this embodiment is explained.
[0129] The dual-fuel nozzle is divided into a main combustion path and a duty path, and its working mode is different according to the fuel (oil / gas).
[0130] When fuel is used, the service circuit introduces fuel and sprays it into the combustion chamber at the service nozzle, where it diffuses and burns, ensuring stable combustion. The main combustion circuit is the main oil circuit, which introduces fuel. Simultaneously, high-pressure air is introduced into the air inlet. Fuel is ejected through the main oil injection holes, and high-pressure air is ejected through the air injection holes. After mixing, a lean fuel-air mixture is quickly formed, which reduces flame temperature and eliminates local hot spots, ultimately reducing nitrogen oxide emissions.
[0131] When burning gas, fuel is introduced into the service path and sprayed into the combustion chamber at the service nozzle, where the fuel can undergo diffusion combustion to ensure stable combustion. The main combustion path is the main gas path. Gas is introduced into the main gas pipe, and then the gas flows into the gas path groove and fills the gas path groove. Then, it flows through the gas path pipeline into the internal pipeline inside the cyclone blades and is sprayed into the cyclone through the gas path injection hole. It is mixed with high-pressure air to form oil-lean gas. Then, under the action of the pressure inside and outside the combustion chamber, the oil-lean gas enters the combustion chamber.
[0132] In summary, the dual-fuel nozzle of the present invention can achieve combustion chamber ignition and stable combustion under wide load conditions by introducing a duty path; and can achieve rapid atomization and mixing of fuel and air by introducing a main combustion path: when burning gas, the fuel is mixed with the air through multiple gas path injection holes on the swirler blades; when burning oil, the mixed fuel is injected through multiple injection holes at the end of the nozzle and mixed with the air. The multi-point injection method greatly increases the contact area between the fuel and air, promotes the rapid formation of a lean oil mixture between the fuel and air, reduces the flame temperature and eliminates local hot spots, so as to achieve the goal of reducing nitrogen oxide emissions. Therefore, the present invention effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of the prior art and has high industrial utilization value.
