Abstract: A duel fuel gas generator (10) is provided with a steam injection system (48) having a bleed-off valve (66) and a steam metering valve which are controlled in concert by a controller (50) to supply steam to a steam manifold (22) for injection into the gas generator at rapidly variable rates independent of the steam supply rate from a boiler (42, FIG. 1). A proportion of the system can be preheated using a steam warm-up flow through the bleed-off valve (66). A further portion of the system can be purged and preheated using compressor delivery air to flow through a steam metering valve (80), a purge valve (74) and a drain valve (94). To control the degree of superheat at the steam manifold (22), water can be injected through a metering valve (90) and a vortex mixer (92), and to purge condensation from a gas fuel manifold (30, FIG. 7) of the gas generator, compressor delivery air can be allowed to flow through the manifold (30 ), a supply line (108) and a purge valve (112) to atmosphere.
