InovGasTurCo
Design and investigation of a novel gas turbine combustor
Project name: Design and investigation of a novel gas turbine combustor
Project code: InovGasTurCo
Project timeline: 2023 - 2024
Research group: Energy and Fluid Mechanics
Objective
The project aims at the development of a novel gas turbine combustor that provides efficient cooling of the liner, internal recirculation of the combustion products and low NOx emissions, and further investigates the performance of the combustor when burning alternative fuels or a mixture of fossil and alternative fuels.
