Gas-turbine combined-cycle (GTCC) power generation is clean and efficient, and its demand will increase in the future from the economic and social perspectives. Raising turbine inlet temperature is an effective way to increase combined cycle efficiency. However, increasing turbine inlet temperature can lead to the increase of NOx emissions. To deal with this issue, MHPS (MITSUBISHI HITACHI POWER SYSTEMS) have developed Dry Low NOx (DLN) combustion techniques for high temperature gas turbines. Fuel flexibility is one of the most important features for DLN combustors to meet the requirement of the gas turbine market.
