Following their previous experiences in the search of feasible modifications to an existing lean-premixed combustor for definite pollutant abatement from a micro-gas turbine, the authors extend their analysis to the case of some typical cases of interest when considering the bio-fuel adoption. In particular, this paper focuses the attention to the possibility of a correct combustion close to the flameless regime, even in the presence of lower calorific value fuels like those that can be found with high concentrations in the biomass derived ones. In addition, the authors pay attention to the nitric oxide control by means of an optimal choice of the pilot injector location.

Abstract
Following their previous experiences in the search of feasible modifications to an existing lean-premixed combustor for definite pollutant abatement from a micro-gas turbine, the authors extend their analysis to the case of some typical cases of interest when considering the bio-fuel adoption. In particular, this paper focuses the attention to the possibility of a correct combustion close to the flameless regime, even in the presence of lower calorific value fuels like those that can be found with high concentrations in the biomass derived ones. In addition, the authors pay attention to the nitric oxide control by means of an optimal choice of the pilot injector location.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
