Popis: A TWO-STAGE gas turbine combustor concept based upon a very fuel-rich partial-oxidation stage is being explored for broadening the combustion margin between ultralow emissions and the lean stability limit. Combustion and emission results are presented for a series of experiments where a simulated partial-oxidation product gas was used in a premix combustor operated with inlet air state conditions typical of cruise power for high-performance aviation engines (1.2 MPa and 728 K). Ultralow NOX, CO, and HC emissions and an extended lean burning limit (relative to single-stage baseline operation) were achieved simultaneously.
