  • Patent number: 9557050
    Abstract: A nozzle for assemblies and gas turbines is provided. The nozzle exhibits destabilized flame holding characteristics, i.e., the nozzle is unable to stabilize flame up to an equivalence ratio of about 0.65. As a result, flame heat release is delayed resulting in lower peak flame temperatures and correspondingly lower NOx levels. Flame stabilization capability is retained for higher equivalence ratios to support operation of the combustor in other regions of the load range.

  • Patent number: 9435537
    Abstract: A combustion system premixer includes one or more streamwise vortex generators configured to passively redirect surrounding high velocity air into at least one of wake and vortex regions within a combustion system fuel nozzle in response to air passing through the premixer. The streamwise vortex generators operate to minimize turbulent flow structures, thus improving air/fuel mixing, and enhancing resistance to flame-holding and flash-back within the premixer.

  • Patent number: 9297267
    Abstract: A system for removing heat from a turbine includes a component in the turbine having a supply plenum and a return plenum therein. A substrate that defines a shape of the component has an inner surface and an outer surface. A coating applied to the outer surface of the substrate has an interior surface facing the outer surface of the substrate and an exterior surface opposed to the interior surface. A first fluid channel is between the outer surface of the substrate and the exterior surface of the coating. A first fluid path is from the supply plenum, through the substrate, and into the first fluid channel, and a second fluid path is from the first fluid channel, through the substrate, and into the return plenum.
