The Implementation of Evaporated Ethanol as an Alternative Fuel for the Natural Gas-Fired Power Plant in Killingholme

Decarbonization is an important step to achieve the goals set by the Paris Agreement. Greenhouse gas emissions should be reduced to zero, and therefore, the reliability of fossil fuels should be reduced. This causes a shift of interest towards more renewable solutions. However, the intermittent nature<br/>of renewable energy sources such as...

Design of an H2-O2 fired Solid Oxide Fuel Cell-Gas Turbine Test Set Up

The issue of climate change has fostered the innovation of new technology in an attempt to curb the rising emissions, with the energy sector being one of the biggest contributors of carbon emissions. Renewable Energy has shown promise in reducing the emissions by up to 32 %. However the problem of intermittency of<br/>renewable energy sources is...

Numerical Study on the Driving and Damping of High-Frequency Instabilities in a Jet Flame Combustor

Lean premixed flames are being used in gas turbines to reduce the emission of NOx. Unfortunately, it results often in thermoacoustic instabilities. These instabilities are high amplitude pressure oscillations which cause damage to the combustion system, reduce efficiency, flame blow-off or flashback. While the cause for instabilities due to...
