  • Liquid fuel reverse purge
    Patent number: 6536217
    Abstract: Devices and methods for liquid fuel reverse purge on shutdown of turbines are provided. The device and method may utilize a liquid fuel reverse purge control system that includes an induction motor associated with a pump, together with fuel system solenoid valves, an electronic control unit and associated software logic. The device and method may alternative utilize a liquid fuel valve manifold including an assembly for mechanical reverse purging of liquid fuel from the atomizer fuel manifold and supply lines thereto, optionally together with an assembly for controlling the flow of the reverse-purged fuel through a re-circulation circuit used to preheat fuel prior to system start-up under cold conditions.
