Abstract (en)

A system for operating a combustor includes a nozzle and a fuel passage and diluent passage through the nozzle. A fuel supply is in fluid communication with the fuel inlet, and a diluent supply is in fluid communication with the diluent inlet and the fuel inlet. A method for operating a combustor includes flowing a fuel through a fuel inlet in a nozzle and flowing a diluent through a diluent inlet in the nozzle. The method further includes sensing an operating parameter of the combustor, generating a signal reflective of the operating parameter, and controlling a flow of at least one of air or diluent to the fuel inlet based on the signal reflective of the operating parameter.
