Please scroll to the bottom of this page to access the Funding Opportunity Announcement. Techniques to Minimize and Manage Flame Flashback and Combustion Instability Events in Turbines with High Hydrogen Fuels- Flame (DE-PS26-06NT42751-1D) Flame flashback and combustion instability are concerns for turbines with premixed natural gas combustion systems. As coal derived high hydrogen fuels are produced in IGCC and FutureGen type plants, advanced turbine machinery must be adapted to accept and utilize these gas mixtures. Fuels with high hydrogen content will challenge turbines, employing ultra low NOx combustion systems, to effectively manage the increased propensity for flame flashback and instability. The increased difficulty in managing flashback and instabilities is due to higher flame speeds of hydrogen, broader flammability limits, and lower energy content on a volume basis when compared to methane. Flame flashback can result in the destruction of fuel nozzles and combustion equipment. Research is sought to develop advanced simulation methods to assess the engineering issues associated with flashback and combustion instability in turbines utilizing premixed high hydrogen fuels. Emphasis in this work should be placed on improved simulation tools that address fuel variability issues and should include a strong validation component to support the simulation effort.
