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...

Modelling Differential Diffusion in Turbulent Non-Premixed Hydrogen Flames

In the future, fossil fuels will be replaced by renewable sources. Hydrogen seems to be a promising energy carrier (fuel). A lot of research has been conducted on the combustion of hydrogen, but the effect of the high diffusivity of hydrogen compared to other species (differential diffusion) was often not included in simulations of turbulent...

Effect of H₂ Fuel-Addition and Air-Side CO₂ Dilution on the Stabilization of Turbulent Dutch Natural Gas Jet Diffusion Flames

The turbulent lifted Dutch natural gas jet diffusion flame in cold co-flowing air is widely used in gas turbine operation and subject of the current investigation. In striving to clean and sustainable combustion, adding hydrogen to the Dutch natural gas (DNG) fuel and CO2 in the coflow is promising. Objective of this investigation is to study...
