Gaseous fuels such as landfill gas contain significant quantities of inerts, typically CO2 and N2. This can lead to difficulties in predicting the emission and thermodynamic performance of industrial gas turbines. An algorithm has been developed to predict emissions of NOx for known quantities of inerts and effects on performance quantified. The effect of steam injection is compared to that of inerts and a relationship established.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
