Supercomputer simulations show ways to clean up, speed up gas turbines

Supercomputer Simulations Show Ways to Clean Up, Speed Up Gas Turbines

Gas turbines are a popular source of power generation for industries such as aviation, energy, and manufacturing. However, they often come with the issue of high emissions and low efficiency, which can lead to environmental and financial concerns.

Thanks to recent supercomputer simulations, researchers have identified ways to improve the cleaning and speed of gas turbines, without sacrificing their power output. These simulations involve complex mathematical computations that take into account various factors such as air flow, turbulence, combustion, and heat transfer.

Cleaning Up Gas Turbines

One of the main ways to reduce emissions from gas turbines is to capture and remove pollutants before they are released into the atmosphere. This can be done through a process called flue gas desulfurization (FGD), which involves injecting sorbents or absorbents into the gas stream to remove sulfur dioxide and other harmful gases.

The supercomputer simulations have shown that using a combination of FGD and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) can further improve the efficiency of gas turbines. SCR involves adding a catalyst to the exhaust gas to convert nitrogen oxide (NOx) into harmless nitrogen and water.

Speeding Up Gas Turbines

Another issue with gas turbines is that their power output can decrease over time due to the fouling of blades and other parts. This problem can be addressed by optimizing the air flow and heat transfer within the turbine.

The supercomputer simulations have suggested that by modifying the internal geometry of the turbine and injecting coolant into the blades, the flow of air can be better controlled and the turbine can operate at a higher speed for a longer period of time. This will result in increased power output and reduced downtime for maintenance.

Conclusion

The findings from these supercomputer simulations provide valuable insights for improving the efficiency and sustainability of gas turbines. By implementing these solutions, industries can reduce their environmental impact and save on costs in the long run.
