Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of ammonia fuel gas turbine technology, and more particularly to a plasma-assisted pure ammonia fuel gas turbine system and its operation method. Background Technology
[0002] A gas turbine is an internal combustion engine that uses a continuously flowing gas as its working fluid to drive a high-speed rotating impeller, converting the energy of fuel into useful work. It is a type of rotary turbine thermal engine. In the main flow of air and gas, the gas turbine cycle consists of only three main components: the compressor, the combustion chamber, and the gas turbine. This cycle is commonly referred to as a simple cycle, and most gas turbines employ a simple cycle design.
[0003] Ammonia and hydrogen both contain no carbon or sulfur. Using ammonia or hydrogen fuel will completely eliminate carbon-related air pollutants such as black carbon, soot, HC, CO, and CO2. Compared to hydrogen, ammonia has the advantages of higher energy density, easier liquefaction, and easier storage and transportation. Compared to gasoline, it has a higher octane rating and better anti-knock properties. However, ammonia has a high ignition point (651 degrees Celsius), high ignition energy (8 mJ), low flame combustion speed (10 cm / s), and low calorific value (18.8 MJ / kg). Therefore, it requires a high compression ratio or external ignition to ensure the air-fuel mixture is ignited. After combustion, it produces NH3 escape and fuel-type NO. x Emissions have become a major bottleneck restricting the large-scale application of ammonia fuel.
[0004] There are three challenges in combustion systems using ammonia as fuel: firstly, ammonia combustion efficiency is low; secondly, ammonia combustion increases the amount of NO in the fuel. x The formation of liquid ammonia is due to several factors, including its high latent heat of vaporization, which requires a significant amount of heat loss during vaporization.
