Abstract: A fuel burner system (10) for a turbine engine (12) configured to operate with syngas fuel, whereby the fuel burner system (10) is configured to reduce nozzle and combustor basket temperatures is disclosed. The fuel burner system (10) may include a plurality of first and second fuel injection ports (16) positioned within a combustor (18), whereby the first fuel injection ports (14) are larger than the second fuel injection ports (16). One or more air injection ports (20) may be aligned with the first fuel injection ports (14). During operation, fuel injected into the combustor (18) from the first fuel injection ports (14) mixes better with the incoming air, causing reduced NOx emissions and lower flame temperatures. Also, the regions between adjacent air injection ports (20), which typically run the hottest, are cooler than conventional combustion system due, in part, to the smaller, second fuel injection ports (16) aligned with regions (22) between adjacent air injection ports (20).

Abstract: A planetary transmission of a wind turbine includes a ring gear which has an internal toothing and at least one planetary gear which has an external toothing that meshes with the internal toothing of the ring gear. The planetary gear is rotatably supported on an axle by a bearing assembly. The bearing assembly includes at least one outer ring having a radially-outwardly-protruding radial projection and at least one set of rolling elements that roll on the outer ring. The planetary gear has a bore and a recess in the region of an axial end, which recess widens the bore. The outer ring is disposed in the bore of the planetary gear such that the radial projection of the outer ring engages into the recess of the planetary gear.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for stirring and/or aerating fluids, particularly sewage, having the following cyclically repeated steps: aerating the fluid by means of an immersed aerator for a predetermined first period of time (t1) using an aeration device (1) disposed on a carrier (3, 43) designed as a floodable hollow body (2, 42), the hollow body (2, 42) being flooded and air being brought into the fluid by the aeration device, whereby the potential for nitrification is created in the fluid; stirring the fluid by means of the immersed aerator for a predetermined second period of time (t2), the air infeed by the aeration device (1) being throttled or turned off, and previously flooded hollow body being evacuated in order to fill the hollow body (2, 42) with gar or air, the immersed aerator assuming the function of mixing device in which fluid rises upward, thus mixing the fluid, where in the potential for denitrification is created in the fluid; and an immersed aerator.
