Abstract

A study reported in the present note was focused mainly on possibilities to control the auto-ignition delay in the GT combustion chamber using the plasma discharge. An extensive activity on the plasma assisted combustion is underway, which concerns the boiler ignition and the gas turbine combustion stability. Three approaches to the plasma assisted GT combustion have been theoretically analyzed using the plasma-chemical and chemical kinetic modelling: Methane pyrolysis; Plasma ignition of the lean CH4/air mixture; Methane pre-reforming (partial oxidation) in a rich CH4/Air mixture.
