Abstract

This article uses experimental methods to measure the operational performance and pollutant emissions of micro gas turbines in different intake environments, and analyzes the feasibility of replacing mine ventilation fans with micro gas turbines. The results show that when the compressor efficiency is increased from 70 % to 90 %, the total efficiency of the micro combustion engine is increased from 28% to 34 %, with an increase of up to 21.4 %. When the demand power is 25 kW, the fluctuation range of NOx emission concentration is within 5.4 %. When the intake opening is below 50 %, the effect is obvious. When the intake opening is reduced from 50 % to 25 %, the performance of the micro gas turbine decreases by 0.7 %; The influence of intake humidity on various operating parameters of micro gas turbines is generally within 3 %, which can meet the requirements of high humidity environment operation; The intake temperature has the greatest impact, with an increase in intake temperature leading to a decrease in power generation efficiency. After comprehensive analysis, we believe that the application of gas turbines in mines is feasible.
