Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0781967A2] The improved burn gas turbine has the air flow taken from the last stage of the compressor (1) and ducted (15) to a premixing stage (5) where a swirl generator (16) and fuel injector (17) in each duct generates a premixing of the air and fuel. The mixture is ducted into a ring shaped combustion chamber (4). The air distribution ducts are arranged around the axis of the gas turbine in a spiral array. Downstream of the swirl generators the premixing ducts have a constant cross section. This is circular or rectangular. The relation between the number of vanes in the last stage of the compressor to the number of air ducts is a whole number, preferably 1 or 2.
