Project description:<br />

An application for a mainly experimental project on high-pressure catalytic combustion at for<br />

Gas Turbines was handed in to STEM and a six-month pre-study period was granted.<br />

Experiments are planned for several types of catalysts at low and high humidity levels of up to<br />

0.3 kg steam per kilo dry air and pressures of up to 35 Bar. Fuels to be tested include gasified<br />

biomass and natural gas, Tests will be performed in bench scale tests with fuel power input of<br />

up to 100 kW, with air pre-heating temperatures of up to 600°C. An existing test rig has to be<br />

modified for these experiments.<br />

Project goal:<br />

The goal of the project is to deliver high quality global experimental data on combustion<br />

stability and emissions for catalytic combustors using<br />

• various different catalyst configurations<br />

• various fuels in air with high humidity, up to 0.3 kg of steam per kg dry air.<br />

• at pressures from atmospheric, up to 35 Bars<br />

• at air inlet temperatures of up to 500 °C<br />

Publish two Tekn.Lic thesis and three Ph.D thesis.<br />

• Tekn. Lic thesis<br />

At the end of second year of the project, by March 2003, Jeevan Jayasuriya (HPT/KTH)<br />

and Katarina Persson (KT/KTH) would complete their licentiate thesis.<br />

• Ph.D thesis<br />

By the end of year 2003, Jan Fredriksson (HPT/KTH), would complete his Ph.D thesis.<br />

By the end of year 2005, Jeevan Jayasuriya (HPT/KTH) and Katarina Persson (KT/KTH)<br />

would complete their Ph.D thesis.<br />

Results:<br />

Test rig is assembly is partly completed. Most of the hardware has been delivered. Ceramic<br />

reactor tube assembly yet to be delivered. Delivery is scheduled on the second week of March<br />

2002. Compressed air, cooling water, fuel supply, exhaust, electricity and control <strong>system</strong>s are<br />

designed and partly installed. Catalysts to be tested in the first phase of experiments have been<br />

developed and tested.
