AI Technical Summary
Existing annular combustors, under hydrogen combustion conditions, suffer from uneven mixing, resulting in localized high-temperature hot spots and excessive NOx emissions. Furthermore, airflow separation in the pre-diffuser section leads to combustion instability and shortened lifespan.
The annular hydrogen combustion chamber design employs guide vanes and a triangular nozzle array. The guide vanes suppress airflow separation, the triangular nozzles enable cross-mixing of air and fuel, and the cooling holes optimize airflow and temperature distribution.
It significantly improves fuel blending uniformity, reduces peak combustion temperature, reduces NOx emissions, and enhances combustion stability and service life.
