Impact of hydrogen addition on the performance of premixed gas turbines, reciprocating engines and industrial burners

R&D Focus Areas: Industrial heat processes, Safety and standards, Gas networks and appliances

Lead Organisation:
University of Melbourne

Funding:
Future Fuels CRC

Status:
Active

Start date:
February 2020

Project summary description:
This project aims to understand how pressure impacts the burning of hydrogen / natural gas mixtures under conditions relevant to gas turbines, reciprocating engines and industrial burners. It considers what physical limits in terms of engines performance and flame stability there are to hydrogen addition and how these might be addressed.
