20100058768 | AXIAL DIFFUSOR FOR A TURBINE ENGINE - A turbine engine having a plenum for passing fluids from an outlet of a compressor to an inlet of a combustor that may increase the efficiency of the turbine engine. The turbine engine may include a combustor, a compressor positioned upstream of the combustor, a transition channel extending from the compressor to the combustor, and a shell extending between the compressor and a combustor portal and positioned around the at least one transition channel. The turbine engine may also include an axial diffusor in the shell near the at least one transition channel, wherein the axial diffusor may include a fluid flow recess in a trailing edge of the axial diffusor. The turbine engine may also include a wave protrusion extending from a surface positioned radially inward of the axial diffusor. The fluid flow recess and the wave protrusion may reduce fluid flow loss within the shell. | 03-11-2010 |
20100192582 | COMBUSTOR NOZZLE - A secondary nozzle is provided for a gas turbine. The secondary nozzle includes a flange and an elongated nozzle body extending from the flange. At least one premix fuel injector is spaced radially from the nozzle body and extends from the flange generally parallel to the nozzle body. At least one second nozzle tube is fluidly connected to the fuel source and spaced radially outward from the first nozzle tube with a proximal end fixed to the flange. The second nozzle tube has a distal end, spaced from the proximal end, with at least one aperture therein. A passageway extends between the proximal end and the distal end of the second nozzle tube, with the passageway fluidly connecting to the fuel source and the aperture. | 08-05-2010 |
20110239654 | ANGLED SEAL COOLING SYSTEM - An aft liner seal for a combustor for a gas turbine includes an inner shell having an inner and outer surface and central axis. The aft liner seal has an outer shell positioned over the inner shell that has an inner and outer surface and central axis coaxial with the inner shell. One of the outer surface of the inner shell or the inner surface of the outer shell has grooves angled relative to the central axis. The angled grooves and adjacent portions of the inner surface of the outer shell or the outer surface of the inner shell form cooling passages. The cooling air exits the cooling passages at an exit angle that is matched to a swirl angle of the combustor flow. Matching of the exit angle and the swirl angle minimizes shear of cooling air with respect to flow exiting the combustor liner. | 10-06-2011 |

20090042151 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FLAME STABILIZATION AND CONTROL - A system and method for providing continuous measurement and control of a combustion device by altering the fuel composition delivered thereto. The system includes devices for sensing combustion characteristics or other device characteristics, and controlling the performance of the combustion device based on the sensed information. Performance control occurs via addition of one or more additives to the fuel to adjust combustion characteristics. Via such sensing and performance control, consistent combustion device performance may be maintained, despite varying fuel characteristics. In one variation, -characteristics of the combustion device in operation, such as flame characteristics, are sensed and used to adjust fuel characteristics via iterative addition of one or more additives. | 02-12-2009 |

20110197923 | STAGED COMPRESSOR WATER WASH SYSTEM - A compressor wash system for compressor washing includes stages of fluid delivery lines coupled at one end to a pump output and at the other end to a corresponding nozzle set. A control valve is connected to the fluid delivery line between the pump and the nozzle set, selectively supplying fluid between the pump and the nozzle set. Each nozzle of a nozzle set is positioned on an inlet of the compressor to allow the stages to wash a portion of the compressor. Nozzle sets are positioned around a bellmouth assembly and/or around an inlet cone of the compressor inlet, with a nozzle spray tip of each nozzle extending into an inlet air flow path of the compressor. Fluid may be directed to one or more of the stages in a sequencing pattern determined and configured to wash the compressor. Templates and installation guides are utilized to position the nozzles. | 08-18-2011 |

20090130001 | METHODS FOR FABRICATING SYNGAS COOLER PLATENS AND SYNGAS COOLER PLATENS - A method for fabricating a syngas cooler is provided. The method includes coupling a tube cage within the syngas cooler, and coupling a plurality of platens to the tube cage to facilitate steam production in the syngas cooler. At least a first platen has at least one of a length that is larger than a length of a second platen, a non-linear geometry, and an angular position that is oblique with respect to a wall of the syngas cooler. | 05-21-2009 |
