Definitions
- the subject matter disclosed herein related generally to gas turbine systems, and more particularly to diffusers in gas turbine systems.
- a conventional gas turbine system includes a compressor section, a combustor section, and at least one turbine section.
- the compressor section is configured to compress air as the air flows through the compressor section.
- the air is then flowed from the compressor section to the combustor section, where it is mixed with fuel and combusted, generating a hot gas flow.
- the hot gas flow is provided to the turbine section, which utilizes the hot gas flow by extracting energy from it to power the compressor, an electrical generator, and other various loads.
- typical known compressor sections include an axial diffuser 19 , as shown in FIG. 2 , which acts to reduce the velocity of the air flow exiting the compressor section.
- known diffusers typically diffuse the air flow as the air flow travels along a generally longitudinal axis 90 of the gas turbine system.
- the air flow exiting the compressor section generally has an “exit swirl” component, meaning that the air flow is traveling in a generally rotational direction, with tangential and radial flow components, along with traveling in a generally longitudinal direction.
- a guide vane or guide vanes 28 are typically disposed upstream of the axial diffuser 19 in the compressor section. The guide vanes 28 are designed to reduce the exit swirl.
- a diffuser that reduces air flow pressure drops would be desired in the art. Additionally, a diffuser that utilizes the exit swirl associated with the air flow to guide the air flow to the combustor section would be advantageous. Further, a diffuser that eliminates the need for guide vanes in the compressor section would be desired.
- a diffuser for a gas turbine system having a longitudinal axis includes a plurality of diffuser ducts.
- Each of the plurality of diffuser ducts is disposed annularly about the longitudinal axis and has an inlet, an outlet, and a passage extending between the inlet and the outlet.
- the outlet of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts is tangentially offset from the inlet of the respective diffuser duct.
- Each of the plurality of diffuser ducts is configured to flow a gas flow therethrough, reducing the gas flow velocity.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a gas turbine system of the present disclosure
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a known gas turbine system
- FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of one embodiment of a diffuser of the present disclosure
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of one embodiment of a diffuser duct of the present disclosure.
- FIG. 5 is a front view of one embodiment of a diffuser of the present disclosure.
- FIG. 6 is a front view of another embodiment of a diffuser of the present disclosure.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a gas turbine system 10 .
- the system 10 may include a compressor section 12 , a combustor section 14 , and a turbine section 16 . Further, the system 10 may include a plurality of compressor sections 12 , combustor sections 14 , and turbine sections 16 .
- the compressor section 12 and turbine section 16 may be coupled by a shaft 18 .
- the shaft 18 may be a single shaft or a plurality of shaft segments coupled together to form shaft 18 .
- the gas turbine system 10 may have a central longitudinal axis 90 . For example, the shaft 18 may be disposed longitudinally along the axis 90 .
- the compressor section 12 may compress a gas flow 80 as the gas flow 80 flows through the compressor section 12 .
- the gas flow 80 may be, for example, air or any other suitable gas.
- the compressor section 12 may then flow the gas flow 80 to the combustor section 14 , which may be configured to accept the gas flow 80 , as discussed below.
- the gas flow 80 may flow in a generally longitudinal direction with respect to the longitudinal axis 90 .
- the gas flow 80 may generally further include other flow components.
- the gas flow 80 after being compressed may have flow components known collectively in the art as an “exit swirl.”
- the gas flow 80 may flow in a generally tangential direction, and may further flow in a generally radial direction.
- the compressor section 12 may include at least one guide vane 28 .
- the guide vane 28 may reduce the exit swirl, thus reducing the tangential and radial flow components of the gas flow 80 .
- the compressor section 12 may be free from guide vanes 28 .
- the compressor section 12 may include a diffuser 20 .
- the diffuser 20 may be configured to reduce the velocity of the gas flow 80 , as discussed below.
- the diffuser 20 may further generally flow the gas flow 80 to the combustor section 14 .
- gas flow 80 may flow through the diffuser 20 and be provided to the combustor section 14 .
- the gas flow 80 may exit the diffuser 20 into a plenum 22 .
- the gas flow 80 may then be provided from the plenum 22 to the combustor section 14 .
- the gas flow 80 may exit the diffuser 20 directly into the combustor section 14 .
- the combustor section 14 may include a plurality of combustor cans 24 .
- the diffuser 20 may comprise a plurality of diffuser ducts 30 .
- Each of the diffuser ducts 30 may be coupled with a combustor can 24 .
- the combustor cans 24 may be configured to accept gas flow 80 from one of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 .
- each of the combustor cans 24 may be fluidly connected to one of the diffuser ducts 30 , such that gas flow 80 exiting the diffuser ducts 30 immediately enters the combustor cans 24 , and thus the combustor section 14 .
- the diffuser 20 of the present disclosure includes a plurality of diffuser ducts 30 .
- each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 may have an inlet 32 , an outlet 36 , and a passage extending between the inlet 32 and the outlet 36 .
- the diffuser ducts 30 may be configured to flow a gas flow 80 therethrough, reducing the gas flow 80 velocity.
- the inlet 32 of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 may have a cross-sectional area that is generally smaller than the cross-sectional area of the outlet 36 of the respective diffuser duct 30 .
- the inlets 32 and outlets 36 may have generally circular or oval cross-sections, rectangular cross-sections, triangular cross-sections, or any other suitable polygonal cross-sections. Further, it should be understood that the inlet 32 and outlet 34 of a respective diffuser duct 30 need not have similarly shaped cross-sections. For example, in one embodiment, the inlet 32 may have a generally rectangular cross-section, while the outlet 36 may have a generally circular cross-section.
- the passage 34 may be generally tapered between the inlet 32 and the outlet 36 .
- the passage 34 may be generally conically shaped.
- the passage 34 may have a generally rectangular cross-section, triangular cross-section, or any other suitable polygonal cross-section. It should be understood that the cross-sectional shape of the passage 34 may change throughout the passage 34 as the passage 34 tapers from the relatively smaller inlet 32 to the relatively larger outlet 36 .
- the diffuser ducts 30 may be disposed in an annular array about the longitudinal axis 90 .
- the gas flow 80 may flow through the inlets 32 into the annular array of diffuser ducts 30 .
- the outlet 36 of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 may be offset from the inlet 32 of the respective diffuser duct 30 .
- offset means spaced from along the identified coordinate direction.
- the outlet 36 of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 may be tangentially offset from the inlet 32 of the respective diffuser duct 30 , such as offset along a tangential axis 92 . Because the outlet 36 of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 is tangentially offset from the inlet 32 of the respective diffuser duct 30 , the diffuser ducts 30 may advantageously utilize the tangential component of the gas flow 80 exit swirl to flow the gas flow 80 through the diffuser duets 30 .
- this utilization of the tangential gas flow 80 component may eliminate the need for guide vanes 28 in the compressor section 12 . Further, the utilization of the tangential gas flow 80 component may prevent gas flow 80 pressure losses due to flow direction changes in typical prior art gas turbine systems as the gas flow 80 flows from the compressor section 12 through the diffuser 20 to the combustor section 14 .
- the outlet 36 of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 may be longitudinally offset from the inlet 32 of the respective diffuser duct 30 , such as offset along the longitudinal axis 90 . Because the outlet 36 of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 is longitudinally offset from the inlet 32 of the respective diffuser duct 30 , the diffuser ducts 30 may advantageously utilize the longitudinal component of the gas flow 80 to flow the gas flow 80 through the diffuser ducts 30 .
- the outlet 36 of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 may be radially offset from the inlet 32 of the respective diffuser duct 30 , such as offset along a radial axis 94 . Because the outlet 36 of each of the plurality of diffuser ducts 30 is radially offset from the inlet 32 of the respective diffuser duct 30 , the diffuser ducts 30 may advantageously utilize the radial component of the gas flow 80 exit swirl to flow the gas flow 80 through the diffuser ducts 30 .
- the tangential axis 92 and the radial axis 94 are defined individually for each diffuser duct 30 with respect to the circumference defined by the diffuser 20 and diffuser ducts 30 , as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 , and that the axes 92 and 94 vary for each diffuser duct 30 about the circumference of the diffuser 20 based on the number of diffuser ducts 30 disposed in an annular array about the longitudinal axis 90 of the diffuser 20 .
- Each of the passages 34 may include a first guide portion 40 , as shown in FIG. 4 .
- the first guide portion 40 may be disposed adjacent the inlet 32 of the respective diffuser duct 30 .
- the first guide portion 40 may be any portion of the passage 34 of the diffuser duct 30 .

- the gas flow 80 may continue to flow through the passage 34 towards the outlet 36 .
- the passages 34 may extend in a generally linear manner downstream of the guide portion 40 with respect to the gas flow 80 , as shown in FIG. 6 .
- the gas flow 80 after passing through the first guide portion 40 of the passage 34 , may continue through the passage 34 in a generally linear manner.
- the passages 34 may extend in a generally curvilinear manner downstream of the guide portion 40 with respect to the gas flow 80 , as shown in FIGS. 3 through 5 .
- the gas flow 80 after passing through the first guide portion 40 of the passage 34 , may continue through the passage 34 in a generally curvilinear manner.
- Each of the passages 34 may further include a second guide portion 42 .
- the second guide portion 42 may be disposed adjacent the outlet 36 of the respective diffuser duct 30 .
- the second guide portion 42 may be any portion of the passage 34 of the diffuser duct 30 .
- the second guide portion 42 may be another portion of the passage 34 that further redirects the general direction of gas flow 80 within a diffuser duct 30 .
- the second guide portions 42 may be configured to guide the gas flow 80 from a generally tangential flow direction to a generally longitudinal flow direction.

- the gas flow 80 may flow through the passage 34 towards the guide portion 42 and the outlet 36 .
- the passages 34 may extend in a generally linear manner upstream of the second guide portion 42 with respect to the gas flow 80 , as shown in FIG. 6 .
- the gas flow 80 before passing through the second guide portion 42 of the passage 34 , may travel through the passage 34 in a generally linear manner.
- the passages 34 may extend in a generally curvilinear manner upstream of the second guide portion 42 with respect to the gas flow 80 , as shown in FIGS. 3 through 5 .
