Abstract:

A survey on available MGT suitable for the Bioliquids-CHP project purpose has been carried out, comparing technical characteristics towards needed modifications. The MGT architecture was carefully examined, as the possibility to implement minor modifications largely depends on the type of MGT: issues such as combustion – chamber type, injector characteristics, fuel line, and control system, were the driving factor for comparing the various options. The criteria which drove the selection of the MGT for the project were therefore summarised. Main fuel physical and chemical characteristics were reported and compared towards standard fossil fuels as diesel oil or kerosene. A preliminary correlative study of droplet evaporation and combustion has been carried out, in order to better understand the peculiarity of each bio-fuel, and data compared to experimental data by Istituto Motori-CNR in Naples, Italy. The only purpose of this activity is to derive preliminary indications about conversion strategies for the MGT Combustion chamber. Finally, preliminary CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) work on the MGT combustion chamber was initiated.
