Abstract

1383627 Gas turbine engine combustion equipment GENERAL ELECTRIC CO 30 April 1973 [1 May 1972] 20560/73 Headings F1G and F1L The invention relates to means for adding fluid to a main fluid which is flowing first towards a process and then away from the process, the invention being described with reference to a combustion system of a gas turbine engine in which steam is injected into the air stream flowing towards the combustion zone and also into the combustion gases flowing from the combustion zone. The combustion apparatus comprises an outer casing 2 and an inner flame tube 5, air flowing from right to left through the air passage 8 and combustion gases flowing from left to right through the flame tube. Combustion air inlet openings 12, 14 are provided in the flame tube at the upstream end and dilution air openings 16 at an intermediate point along the length. Steam is supplied through a line 19 and discharges into the air passage 8 through a primary nozzle 20 and through a secondary nozzle 21, the nozzle 21 being directed towards a dilution air opening 16 whereby at low rates of steam flow all the steam discharging from nozzle 21 discharges into the air-flow through passage 8, Fig. 2a, at intermediate rates of steam flow, steam from the nozzle 21 passes in part into the air-flow through passage 8 and in part through the dilution air opening 16 into the combustion gas-flow through the flame tube Fig. 2b, and at high rates of steam flow, steam discharging from the nozzle 21 passes wholly through the dilution air opening 16 into the combustion gas-flow, Fig. 2c.
