Abstract

742,815. Supplying fuel to burners. LUCAS (INDUSTRIES), Ltd., J., and ROVER CO., Ltd. May 12, 1954 [May 14, 1953], No. 13490/53. Class 75(1). [Also in Group XXVI] A gas turbine fuel system has a feed pump, of sufficient capacity to meet the normal requirements of the turbine, feeding a swirl type burner nozzle having a spill passage connected to the outlet of the pump, a circulating pump of larger capacity than the feed pump situated between the feed pump and the burner nozzle and a valve adapted to isolate the spill passage and to connect the circulating pump to the inlet side of the feed pump. In the arrangement shown under normal working conditions, fuel is supplied by the feed pump a through the circulating pump f to the burner nozzle d. The nozzle d is of the swirl type and has connected to it a spill pipe e which returns fuel from the nozzle d to a point in the feed pipe c at the outlet of the feed pump. At the junction of the spill and feed pipes a manually operable valve i is provided to isolate the pipe e and at the same time connecting the circulating pump f to the tank b. This valve may also at the same time isolate the feed pump a. Preferably the valve i is loaded so that it is automatically returned to the position shown. If a fuel supply in excess of the normal is required, the valve i is moved to the position in which it isolates the pipe e and connects the circulating pump f to the tank b. The circulating pump then temporarily serves as the feed pump. A bypass k controlled by a valve m controlled by a, speed governor n or by a valve o controlled by means p responsive to the temperature in the combustion chamber or both may be provided to by-pass fuel back to the tank b. The by-pass k may be arranged at the discharge of the feed pump a as indicated by dotted lines. A pressure relief valve h and by-pass g may be provided around the circulating pump f. Isolating valves may be provided in the supply and spill lines to the nozzle.
