SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VARIATION OF INJECTORS FOR COHERENCE REDUCTION IN COMBUSTION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To control combustion dynamics and/or modal coupling of combustion dynamics.SOLUTION: A system includes a gas turbine engine having a first combustor and a second combustor. The first combustor includes a first fuel conduit having a first plurality of injectors. The first plurality of injectors are disposed in a first configuration within the first combustor along a first fuel path, and the first plurality of injectors are configured to route a fuel to a first combustion chamber. The system further includes a second combustor having a second fuel conduit having a second plurality of injectors. The second plurality of injectors are disposed in a second configuration within the second combustor along a second fuel path, and the second plurality of injectors are configured to route the fuel to a second combustion chamber. The second configuration has at least one difference relative to the first configuration.
