| Résumé | Dry low emissions premixed combustion systems have the ability to give larger NOx emissions reduction in comparison to diffusion type of combustors. However, these systems are prone to flashback because the fuel and oxidizers are mixed upstream of the combustion chamber. This is particularly true for premixed systems burning high-reactivity fuels due to their higher flame speed. Flashback is undesirable in gas turbines because it leads to overheating and failure of fuel nozzles and premixing sections. Recently, a novel application of Plasma Actuation through non-thermal Dielectric Barrier Discharge has been shown to significantly delay flashback in the core flow along the axis of the premixer. Building on this successful endeavour, efforts were directed to prove the effectiveness of the control method in situations where flashback was triggered in the boundary layer. Results show that the current application delays the occurrence of flashback in the boundary layer of the premixer to higher equivalence ratios. Improvements in the combustor operability margin of 10 to 14% when burning natural gas-air mixtures, and of about 3.5% when replacing the fuel by an equimolar mixture of natural gas and hydrogen, were achieved. It was found that the proposed application of plasma actuation is even more efficient in preventing flashback in the boundary layer than in the core flow. |
