Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to gas turbine engines and, more particularly, to acoustic damping systems for damping dynamics in combustors in gas turbine engines.
  • Gas turbine engines typically include a plurality of combustor baskets positioned downstream from a compressor and upstream from a turbine assembly.
  • longitudinal mode dynamics often occurs in the combustor baskets.
  • the longitudinal mode dynamics usually originates at the inlet of the air flow path in a combustor basket and travels downstream to the turbine inlet.
  • the dynamics restrict the tuning flexibility of the gas turbine engine in order to operate at lower emissions, which is an ever increasing requirement for newer gas turbines.
  • Resonators have been incorporated into combustors to damp the longitudinal mode dynamics.
  • the resonators have been sized and configured to address specific acoustic tunes. Resonators with various configurations have been employed.
  • the resonators are positioned within the combustors in the area of highest heat release to be most effective. It is in this position where the resonators are exposed to significant temperatures and thermal gradients.
  • Other solutions have been used with limited success because of cracking and significant repair costs. Thus, a need exists for a more efficient, less costly solution to damp longitudinal mode dynamics.
  • the acoustic damping resonator system may be formed from one or more resonators formed from a resonator housing positioned within the gas turbine engine combustor at an outer housing forming a combustor basket and extending circumferentially within the combustor.
  • the resonator housing may include one or more resonator chambers that provide enhanced cooling with reduced risk of cracking and other damage.
  • the resonator housing may include resonator exhaust orifices that are positioned closer to an area of maximum temperature within the combustor, thereby enabling the resonator to reduce the temperature gradient within the combustor.
  • the resonator housing may be sized and configured to reduce stress found in conventional systems by increasing distances between resonator exhaust orifices and between resonator inlet impingement orifices, among others.
  • the acoustic damping resonator system for a combustor of a turbine engine may include one or more resonator housings defining one or more inner channels with an inner surface and an outer surface on an opposite side of the resonator housing from the inner surface.
  • the acoustic damping resonator system may include one or more resonator chambers extending radially outward from the resonator housing.
  • the resonator chamber may include one or more resonator inlet impingement orifices in an outer wall of the resonator chamber and one or more resonator exhaust orifices extending through the resonator housing.
  • the resonator exhaust orifice extending through the resonator housing may be offset axially upstream to place the resonator exhaust orifice closer to an area of maximum temperature within the combustor.
  • the resonator exhaust orifice may include a plurality of resonator exhaust orifices that are positioned closer to an upstream wall of the resonator chamber than a downstream wall of the resonator chamber.
  • the plurality of resonator exhaust orifices may be separated from each other a distance equal to at least one and one half times a diameter of a smallest diameter of the plurality of resonator exhaust orifices.
  • the plurality of resonator exhaust orifices may be separated from each other a distance equal to at least two times a diameter of a smallest diameter of the plurality of resonator exhaust orifices.

  • the second row of inlet impingement orifices may skip a position in a middle of the second row of resonator exhaust orifices.
  • the plurality of inlet impingement orifices may be separated from each other a distance equal to at least one and one half times a diameter of a smallest diameter of the plurality of inlet impingement orifices.
  • the plurality of inlet impingement orifices may be separated from each other a distance equal to at least two times a diameter of a smallest diameter of the plurality of inlet impingement orifices.
  • a ratio of distance between the outer wall of the resonator chamber and the resonator housing and a diameter of the resonator inlet impingement orifice may be between about seven and about four.
  • the outer wall may be sized in thickness such that a ratio of a length of the at least one resonator inlet impingement orifice extending radially inward to a diameter of the at least one resonator inlet impingement orifice is greater than one.
  • an acoustic damping resonator system for a combustor of a turbine engine may include one or more resonator housings defining at least one inner channel with an inner surface and an outer surface on an opposite side of the resonator housing from the inner surface.
