diethylene glycol di-Me ether, ether, ethylene glycol di-Me ether, diethylene glycol di-Et ether. Two colours pyrometry was adopted as the experimental technique to investigate the polluants formation. The use of this technique permitted a comparison between evolution of soot fraction burning the different fuels. The experimental tests have demonstrated that the oxygen content of the fuel has a strong influence on soot formation process. Simultaneously, due to the particular molecular structure, these fuels present very high cetane numbers. This leads to a reduction of the NO,, HC and CO emissions, and notwithstanding the high oxygen content also the aldehydes emissions are relatively low. To confirm the main trends observed in the research engine, a comparison regulated emissions between pentyl ether, ethylene glycol di-Me ether, and two reformulated diesel fuels of a modern four cylinders DI diesel engine for passenger car application, is presented.

Discusses that large diesel engines are well suited for power generation in remote areas, their high thermal efficiency and relative insensitivity to high ambient temperatures make them suitable for use in desert and tropical climates. This article explores the utilization of the heat from exhaust gases from a turbocharged and inter-cooled engine as an energy input to a vapor absorption refrigeration machine that is used primarily to cool the engine charge air in an intercooler. The influence of the engine configuration and performance parameters on the performance of an ideal system is investigated.
Method and apparatus for removal of dust from hot 97101395 gases for use in gas turbine cycles Schulten, R. er al. Ger. Offen. DE 19, 512, 939 (Cl. F2353/00), 10 Ott 1996. Appl. 19, 512, 939, 6 Apr 1995, 6 pp. (In German) Details a process for the removal of ash and slags from flue gas or synthesis gas. The gas is prepurified in an inertia separator such as cyclone lined with high-temperature and slag-resistant SiC/MoSi2 components, and cooled and purified from fine dust in a high-temperature ceramic heat exchanger for expansion in a conventional gas turbine. By using the high-temperature ceramic heat exchanger, in addition to the purification effect, a second closed-cycle gas turbine process is run by the in the heat exchanger-heated N and/or inert gases, where alternative nonmetallic turbine materials such as carbon fibre-reinforced C can be used.

The data presented illustrate the system flexibility afforded by variation of ASU integration and the potential performance gains available through the continued use of gas turbine advances. Emphasis is placed on system design choices that favour either low initial investment cost or low operating cost for a given IGCC system output.

Nakata, T. er al. J. Eng. Gas Turbines Power, 1996, 118, (3) 534-540. The reduction of NO, emissions and increasing the inlet temperature of gas turbines are the most significant issues in gas turbine development in Integrated Coal Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power generation systems. The coal gasified fuel, which is produced in a coal gasifier of an airblown entrained-flow type has a calorific value as low as l/IO natural gas. Furthermore, the fuel gas contains ammonia when a gas cleaning system is a hot type, and ammonia will be converted to nitrogen oxides in the combustion process of a gas turbine. The study was performed in a 15Oo”Cclass gas turbine combustor firing low-Btu coal-gasified fuel in IGCC systems. An advanced rich-lean combustor of l50-MW class gas turbine was designed to hold stable combustion burning low-Btu gas and to reduce fuel NO, emissions from the ammonia in the fuel. The main fuel and the combustion air are supplied into a fuel-rich combustion chamber with strong swirl flow and make fuel-rich flame to decompose ammonia into intermediate reactants. The secondary air is mixed with primary combustion gas dilatorily to suppress the oxidization of ammonia reactants in fuel-lean combustion chamber and to promote a reducing process to nitrogen. By testing under atmospheric pressure conditions, the authors have obtained a very significant result through investigating the effect of combustor exit gas temperature on combustion characteristics.
