Numerical Study of NOx Emissions in RQL Gas Turbine Combustor

Article Preview

Abstract:

RNG (Renormalization Group) k-ε turbulent model was applied to the numerical simulation of turbulent mixing processes in the RQL gas turbine combustor, and SIMPLE algorithm was used to solve the finite difference equations. The calculated conclusions were used to analyze temperature distribution of the mixed flow field and near-wall region of the flow field, and then discuss the NOx emissions. The results show that the effect of the injector zone geometry and the jet to crossflow momentum flux ratios on the NOx emissions is obvious. The reasonable control of jet is beneficial to reduce the local high temperature area and is able to improve the distribution of the exit temperature. And then achieve the goal of reducing the environmental pollution.
