| 151-0252-00L | Gas Turbines: Thermodynamic Cycles and Combustion Systems | 4 KP | 2V + 1U | A. Ciani | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Kurzbeschreibung | Gas turbines are used in various applications such as power generation, mechanical drive, jet engines and ship propulsion because they offer high efficiency and low emissions. For all operating conditions and fuels (in future: low-carbon fuels such as hydrogen or ammonia) the combustion concepts (e.g. lean premix) have to maintain stable heat release and low pollutant (NOx, CO) formation. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | Getting familiar with the basics of combustion systems in various gas turbine types; acquiring knowledge about gas turbine applications and gas turbine based thermodynamic cycles. Learning about gas turbine combustor geometries and design rules; understanding combustion characteristics for specific conditions relevant to gas turbines; emission characteristics (NOx, CO, soot) of gas turbine combustors; flame stability and thermoacoustics; combustion properties of a range of gas turbine fuels (liquid/gas; fossil/renewable). | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
