  • NAPHTHA AND PROCESS GAS/SYNGAS MIXTURE FIRING METHOD FOR GAS TURBINE ENGINES
    Publication number: 20130186057
    Abstract: A fuel delivery system for a gas turbine designed to efficiently transfer from one type of fuel to a separate fuel, comprising different and cooperating fuel modules, namely high hydrogen fuel gas, distillate fuel and naphtha fuel modules, each of which feeds a different liquid or gas fuel to the combustors, an atomized air delivery system for either the naphtha or distillate (or combinations thereof), an air extraction system, a plurality of distribution control valves for the high hydrogen fuel gas, distillate fuel and naphtha fuel modules, and a nitrogen purge system to purge the high hydrogen fuel gas lines to the combustors and/or flushing the naphtha lines with distillate.
