  • Patent number: 9347666
    Abstract: A combustor includes a combustor external cylinder, a tubular combustor basket installed in the combustor external cylinder, a compressed air channel defined between the combustor external cylinder and the combustor basket, and a plurality of fuel nozzles installed in the combustor basket. Compressed air flowing along the compressed air channel is approximately reversed in the flow direction at an end of the combustor basket, and is introduced into the plurality of fuel nozzles. Fuel injection pegs made up of an upstream side fuel injection peg injecting upstream side fuel and a downstream side fuel injection peg injecting downstream side fuel, are installed in the compressed air channel. Concentration fluctuation of the upstream side fuel caused by pressure fluctuation in the combustor is configured so as to reduce a peak of concentration fluctuation of the downstream side fuel at a combustion start position of the combustor.

  • Patent number: 8813502
    Abstract: It is required for a gas turbine combustor to exhaust low NOx. The gas turbine combustor is provided with a combustion tube which has a cooling passage through which cooling air flows in a double wall structure. The cooling passage has a main cooling air supply opening opened to a side of a combustion zone. The cooling air supplied from the main cooling air supply opening is guided to a direction along an inner wall surface of the combustion tube by a guide. The cooling air flows through the cooling passage inside the combustion tube, and then is reused for film cooling along the inner wall surface. Thus, it is possible to save cooling air. Therefore, a more part of the air supplied from a compressor can be used as air for combustion and it becomes possible to exhaust low NOx.
