3.1.1.1 Problem description<br />
For this problem, we need to design a virtually zero-NO x combustor for a sub-scale<br />
test unit of our micro-turbine system. This new combustor must also match several<br />
gas turbine inlet specifications to optimize the overall system performance under fullload,<br />
steady-state operation. A typical gas turbine flow capacity chart is shown in<br />
Figure 3-1. The combustor-related design specifications normally include total mass<br />
flow rate of the gas turbine system and the turbine rotor inlet temperature, TRIT.<br />
