Abstract
Two stage premixed combustor with variable geometry has been developed to meet stringent NOx goals in Japan without the use of water or steam injection. This combustion system is planned to be applied for 120-MW gas turbine in 1090-MW LNG combined cycle plant. The full-pressure, full-scale combustion tests were conducted over a wide range of operating conditions for this gas turbine. The combustion tests proved that NOx levels as well as mechanical characteristics were well within the goals.
